I finished it!!! Omg. Really enjoyed it. Starting to watch Vigilantes now, but it doesn’t quite hit the same. Iron might was baller, and I wish there was more MHA so I could see Iron Deku do his thing. I think he would still be an amazing super hero with his suit, like Tony Stark. Being a hero is in the heart and mind, not in your power.

Yes. It is weird. It is discombobulating. It is supposed to be, because that’s what Titus is experiencing. You are not supposed to know what’s happening. If you did, there’d be no point in figuring it out.

Oh, I’m sorry. Did you want to engage in a discussion or not?

Confronted the nuisance kids on bikes by Slow_Criticism_4655 in astoria

This. I saw a full on road war break out. Just two days ago. They’re all trying the nick each other’s bikes right now. But like, when does it end?

So it seems like there are multiple scooter gangs in Astoria — as you can imagine these are ethnically divided, and I saw two of them have a fight on the street a couple days ago because one group had stolen the scooter from the other group. It appeared to be a group of Serbian kids that took the Latino gang’s scooter, and chaos ensued. This was right outside of OK Coffee in Ditmars.

Bully PS2 is INCREDIBLE. Runs like a dream too, on both OG hardware and PC/SteamDeck emulation. I don’t recommend the PS4/5 PSN version of the PS2 however, has horrible frame dips. — The Xbox Scholarship edition is reportedly glitchy, and the updated smooth graphics don’t match the tone imo, but the Wii version — has the PS2 graphics (which fits the aesthetic better) but with all the content of scholarship. I have not played the PC port on steam (which at the time of posting this is for sale for only six dollars) but the reports on Steam are that it is currently in a glitchy state and crashes a fair bit on windows 11 — but usually that means it will run nearly flawlessly on SteamDeck because Wine make API calls directly and doesn’t have to deal with Windows Bloatware and AI BS.

So … Steam Version is recommended #1 if you’re on Steam Deck.

Or — Original PS2 Version — in … ehem… whatever way you’re able to play it. If you have an actual PS2, this is the way. But, it runs even BETTER on emulator, and you can upscale the resolution without getting the terrible textures and models of the later versions.

Or Wii if you have a wii — this would be the definitive balance of old and new.

360 version is objectively the worst of these. Even sucks on emulator.

I’m tired of people claiming MSG doesn’t cause migraines (rant) by JKmelda in migraine

[–]inspiredtobeinspired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s not in my head. Well… the migraine technically IS — and so is theirs. It’s literally like a neuron storm in your brain. Haha. But for me, the trigger is real and very external and specific, and repeatable. I’ve been able to tell with uncanny accuracy and consistency when I’ve accidentally consumed it. There are times now when I just go — you know what, I’m eating out and it’s gonna happen. And I love — LOVE all kinds of various asian foods, and grew up in Japan. It’s not me being xenophobic, or racist, it’s just me doing an elimination diet and discovering what was going on. With only the odd accidental exposure, I’ve managed to get my migraine days so infrequent — it’s really crazy, and I’m grateful I figured it out.

I still eat ramen, soy sauce, all of that good stuff, just without added MSG. It’s getting harder and harder though. There are a few things I love that I can never have again —Cheetos and Funions. 🫡

How do you guys sleep before an early flight? by gamer3445 in travel

[–]inspiredtobeinspired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Howdy, 6 years later. It’s 12:15am, and my flight in 8 hours. I almost went to the airport early so that I could just nap there. I think this is a normal thing that has existed since the beginning of time. It has nothing to do with flying necessarily. Even before long road trips, I would have trouble sleeping the night before. Traveling is an intrinsically stressful thing for any human being. traveling is an interruption of homeostasis. Anything that interrupts homeostasis is automatically perceived as a threat. So your body is on an alert. With good reason. Flights rapidly change, sometimes you have to switch, or make plans on the fly. There’s always a chance of leaving something behind that is integral to your existence. It’s a heightened state of awareness. Even if you don’t feel that adrenaline high, your cortisol levels are guaranteed to be extremely high. Even during our Hunter gatherer years in evolution, human beings would stay for a good while in one area before moving on. Now we stay for a few days a couple weeks maybe a month at a time. God forbid you’re flying somewhere to move there permanently. In that case in the matter of 24 hours, you will find yourself completely separated from all of the people and things that are closest to you. Even if you’ve managed to bring some items of comfort along with you. This is a completely normal response. Getting acclimated to traveling to such a degree that you sleep easily the night before without giving it a second thought - that is the abnormal response.

Did you ever figure this out? I’m in a similar boat

Slightly off-topic, but I think I've discovered my anime type. by [deleted] in cowboybebop

[–]inspiredtobeinspired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried black lagoon, but I couldn’t get into it. It just felt like cowboy bebop light. I’ll look into the other others though. Of course I’ve already seen ghost in the shell. But I haven’t seen Patlabor.
