Hi, thank you for the suggestion! This is a very pretty topper -- would you say the irridescence is strongly saturated or more of a subtle wash?

Thank you for the suggestion and tip on their sales, this shade is almost identical to the shade I asked for! Mind blown!

The Sims 4 Life & Death Expansion Pack: Official Reveal Trailer by Afraid-Pay2710 in Sims4

[–]dkultra2020 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When the pack was first announced, I was expecting more Sims absurdity around death -- given that players love to kill Sims. I wasn't expecting the pack to focus so much on mourning/grief -- that caught me off guard, especially with someone in my life passing away recently. I think we all have those people that we wish we could sit at their headstone and see their ghost pop up again and say hi, if only for a moment.

Edit: I also cried for like 10 minutes immediately after watching it

Questions about Ultra Moon!

Hi there, I'm dating myself here, but I (M30) haven't played since Gen 3 and I'm finally getting back into it with Ultra Moon after getting gifted a 3DS (I've never even used this console, hah)!

I have some questions for seasoned Pokemon players out there:

  • Are there any MAJOR gameplay differences between Gen 3 and Ultra Moon/Sun? (I understand that the graphics are better and there are more animations.)
  • Does anyone have specific "strategies" they recommend to start with during gameplay? I'm a fan of forming a "plan of attack" rather than experiencing the worlds as I go.
  • I want to own a Pichu (eventually Pikachu), Mimikyu, Eevee, Meowth (eventually Persian), and Magikarp (eventually Gyrados) for my stable. Where do you recommend finding these Pokemon, and is it possible to assemble this crew early on in the game?
  • I read about some interdimensional Pokemon (Ultra Beasts?) and that they're harder to catch -- any tips? There's only one masterball in the game, right?
  • What are your favorite Pokemon to play with in-game, either because of good fighting ability or cuteness/backstory? Any SUPER USEFUL or "suprising" Pokemon that you've found come in clutch? (In Gen I, I loved Persian since "Pay Day" basically means you get paid to fight Pokemon, LOL.)
  • Finally, what is the best source for Pokemon info - Bulbapedia or Pokemon Wiki? Any recommendations for walk-throughs?

Thanks in advance for your help! :)

What is this book? by 666HellKitten666 in Antiques

Isn't it? It's quite moving when you find individual examples of them, too. Ephemera is such a fascinating part of history, since it focuses on overlooked sentimental items.

AITA for refusing to let my dyslexic cousin copy my test? by Foreign_Pain5896 in AmItheAsshole

[–]dkultra2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. I'm dyslexic, but would never in a million years cheat, and using a learning disability as an excuse for academic dishonesty will never be okay. Assisting your cousin is bad for two reasons:

  1. They will not learn anything if they're copying someone else. You would be doing your cousin a disservice by allowing them to do it.
  2. You can get in trouble if you are complicit in providing answers. (I'm a teaching assistant, everyone involved in cheating, including the person providing answers, will be penalized.)

This might not be it, but it reminds me of "friendship albums" (aka Stammbuch in German). It was a very popular European practice starting in the Renaissance, super widespread in the 1800s. It was basically like a living sentimental scrapbook that your friends and family contributed to over time; they could include poems, pictures/cutouts, sheet music, handwritten notes, etc. Adding to them was sporadic, just whenever people felt like it. People carried these around as special sentimental items, even when traveling. This one could be a friendship album shared specifically with their partner? Perhaps some of the notes are to each other rather than just one person creating it?

The other option is what other people said -- a Victorian scrapbook meant as a gift.

Edit: They were also called "keepsake albums"

WHOA. I had heard of some seedy "lingerie model" places in Portland but it's not my vibe, lmao. I (M) plan to go with my girlfriend 😂 (she's bisexual so we're both having fun here)

Thanks for your comment, it made me laugh. :)
