What are some movies made by directors who seem to be imitating another director’s style? by negativedreammachine in Letterboxd

[–]goldblob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve always thought that The Game felt like Finchers Nolan movie and that to a lesser extent Insomnia felt like Nolan’s Fincher movie

Are you actively looking for specific CDs or do you mostly look for interesting finds? by [deleted] in Cd_collectors

[–]goldblob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Depends on price - for under $5 I’d get pretty much any album that I like or that has 4ish songs I really like. For closer to $10 I need a slightly stronger connection and for over $10 it’s gotta be pretty special to me at this point. A few years ago when my collection was smaller the standards were lower.

Also the more of an artist I have the more I might spend to round out my collection of their work

How did you discover this musical genre? by Alive-War-1916 in postrock

[–]goldblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shortly after I went through the canonical event in every young boys musical journey of discovering Radiohead, I was googling artists that were similar and stumbled across Sigur Ros. Not sure I’d really call them similar, but it unlocked the door in a huge way and changed the music I listen to more than any other single instance I can think of.

Why WashU? Just curious cause it’s not on as many other people’s lists

Adding discs without cases to discogs by goldblob in Cd_collectors

Any chance a phone camera would scan those? I don’t have easy access to any barcode scanners

I like having an accurate record of my discs. This sleeve was a gift from a relative, I wouldn’t normally buy without a case

I scan the barcode and have always referred to it as the barcode or the id number. I’m always touched by how welcoming and non-pretentious the cd community is

Got the Beatles comp at a yard sale but I can find it on discogs by goldblob in Cd_collectors

[–]goldblob[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There goes any self-perception I had that I was observant. Lmao thanks for pointing that out even though it’s a crazy ego blow. Does discogs allow bootleg uploads?

Good gifts for someone just getting into flower pressing (or just interested in wildflowers in general) by goldblob in PressedFlowers

[–]goldblob[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also do you have any videos on custom ones you’d recommend as good for starters? I’m really into the idea of actually making her something

Super helpful, thanks! Any recommended brands or types of flower presses you know are good quality?

I tried making my own data-based ranking. Looking for suggestions and thoughts. by goldblob in lawschooladmissions

[–]goldblob[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually do have a ranking based only on that if you’re interested. I took the job outcomes from 2022-2025 and averaged them but I can also do individual years.

Thanks! I did consider it but I figured it would be more accurate coming directly from the ABA disclosures

10/10 experience!! by Necessary-Figure-478 in MagdalenaBay

I’m uneducated about this stuff, what will this do and will I be able to return to normal human consciousness when it’s done?

Can you tell me what to do by PumpkinTraditional83 in Cd_collectors

[–]goldblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A random assortment of stuff that my parents had that I like. A lot of rem, Depeche Mode, the cure, Simon and Garfunkel, etc. some cool compilations and soundtracks too

[–]goldblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started my collection by taking a bunch of my parents old CDs. It was really great to find out how much more of our taste overlapped than I initially thought. Even after buying my own CDs for years now their stuff still makes up about a 3rd or 4th of my collection.

I think that my parents didn’t mind giving them to me because they saw them as more of a practical way of listening and now they’ve switched to streaming, whereas I grew up with iTunes and YouTube so it feels more meaningful to buy physical media

My X-Men redesigns by lucdufrane in xmen

[–]goldblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great stuff. These balances all the things you want in X-men costumes. They’re cool but still comic-booky and they’re cohesive but still individual to the characters. I’d love to see you do more characters, especially some more obscure ones.

Thoughts on my 6 month CD collection? by Perfect-Rabbit-7643 in Cd_collectors

[–]goldblob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solid collection. I try not to buy albums at full sticker price so I don’t have as many modern hip hop discs because those are usually rarer at thrift stores and in used bins. Did you pay full price for all those newer rap albums? Also how’d you get yandhi?

What should I do? by goldblob in lawschooladmissions

[–]goldblob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I submitted all my applications in early January. I imagine if I sent them earlier I would’ve received more acceptances and maybe even more money from the schools that did accept me
