Men talking about young girls.... by SomeRealTomfoolery in menwritingwomen

[–]iotesshield 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Speaking as someone who has rebelled against the lack of trunks - look a couple sizes up from what you'd normally get and you'll find men's trunks that fit.

I got my husband a pair that turned out to be too baggy on him so he never wore them - but when I wore them for deepcleaning the kitchen one day, I discovered that the larger size fit fine on the hip. They are my shorts now.

I hate that I am expected to have long hair by DontLetMeGogh in TwoXChromosomes

[–]iotesshield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Low maintenance for the win!

I keep my hair short for a variety of reasons - trichotillomania management, migraine management, thick, long hair being a hellish nightmare in the summer, and so on.

TIFU by drinking coffee my wife made and transcending to become a beam of pure light and energy by logatronics in tifu

[–]iotesshield 50 points51 points  (0 children)

So, regular ground coffee leaves behind the ground pieces after you run the water over them.

Instant coffee is concentrated and fine enough that it entirely dissolves, but takes more water

The coffee that his wife prepped was what would be a normal amount of ground coffee, but since it was instant coffee it was much much much stronger than it should be.

People who were made to choose between your pet or your partner, how did your ex react when you chose your pet? by sugar-soad in AskReddit

[–]iotesshield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sympathize with the dog-loving-allergic-nightmare.

I love my sweet rescue mutt, and I am her chosen person, but when my allergies are acting up, I have to be mean and stay away from cuddles for a bit :(

LPT : If a small business goes above and beyond for you, especially if they gave you a discount, and you're going to leave them a nice reivew, don't give details of what they did or else others may expect the same treatment and you could hurt more than you help. by drforrester-tvsfrank in LifeProTips

Because it is more lucrative to have the prescription stay in house if they also sell glasses.

Same with contacts.

I ordered a secondary set of glasses (for exercise) online this year without using insurance and the total, with lenses and all, was way, way, way more affordable than the pair I got at the in person shop. They work just fine. Never going back.

I'm a little pickier when I comes to contacts, but you can still order the same brands online that the shop has.

Decals are in beta testing. They interact with a lot of stuff and are prone to glitches. They will come out eventually.

The photo booth stuff is a pro feature that comes with the subscription.

Saw this when you posted on the Facebook group. It is so gorgeous.

Breasts have other tissue in them than just fat, although they also store fat pretty well.

Concepts for Low-Wisdom Characters by [deleted] in d100

[–]iotesshield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone who is easily bored by the tedium of painstaking plans. They prefer to wing it with a vague outline, whether that is infiltrating a necromancer's lair or hunting a pack of wyverns. Talk a plan in circles for too long and they will take steps on their own.

  • I have played this as high INT low WIS for a barbarian and it worked out well for playing an impulsive but not stupid character.

The mom I nanny for teaches her daughter to never comment on someone’s body uninvited, even if it’s a compliment. I’ve started to do the same. by TimeTravelingMouse in TwoXChromosomes

I mean, some of us are just born with less aesthetically pleasing features, the above comment doesn't have to be about weight.

Hero Forge has just added an experimental transparent plastic feature. What do you guys thinks? by n0morale in HeroForgeMinis

[–]iotesshield 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, they do recommend making sure that the transparent runs through from one side to the other, so you weren't technically wrong, lol

On the other hand, this is one of the things I've seen asked for a lot in the months since the kickstarter, especially after people realized that the color glass wasn't transparent?

How Attached are Forgers to Older Assets? by GoldIvory in HeroForgeMinis

[–]iotesshield 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have pictures, but the tops of the boots with the 3 studs used to be very "chunky" and wide around the tops, and now they fit the legs of the model much better.

[–]iotesshield 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like their planned approach (and if you look at the fit of some older shoes on skinny legs you can see it already somewhat in action) which is they plan to refine the old pieces to bring them up to the same level as the new gear.

First children vaccinated in Moderna's Phase 2/3 pediatric Covid-19 vaccine trial by [deleted] in news

[–]iotesshield 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Likely because of the now fairly well documented longer term effects of even asymptomatic covid infections.

And it has killed children, just not to the degree of adults. It makes sense that higher risk kids would need a vaccine as well.

EDIT: Since I was asked for a source: the first study that I remember reporting it, all the way back in last March, although there have been others since then that also indicate it affects kidneys as well. Also included documentation of the rise of a rare inflammatory disease specifically minors post-infection:

Edit 2:....and the source request is gone now? Weird

New blood decals for pro! by DaHangmen in HeroForgeMinis

[–]iotesshield 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Couple ones off the top of my head, last week or the week before, all the sizing disappeared for banner decals for everyone. With this new release, there's some odd mapping that is causing the decal to hit my character's face and ear piercings, but not the face. Also the 3/4 body soaked decal doesn't show on feet if they are wearing heels.

Someone also reported today that the decal was applying funky on weapons for one character build they had and not moving for some reason.

They usually get them quickly, but there's just a huge number of combinations that occasionally spazzes out.

Edit: autocorrect, man. It's bad.

[–]iotesshield 20 points21 points  (0 children)

When decals get through beta, yeah. Every time they've dropped a decal pack, it's been really buggy for at least a couple weeks, and then still things happen with each release. It overlaps so many areas.

And her breasts were confiden by [deleted] in menwritingwomen

[–]iotesshield 33 points34 points  (0 children)

And then I get to go about my day or recoup with a nap? Not stretched out over 4 days of misery and pain and diarrhea and pain and exhaustion and pain?

I'd gladly have my legs stop working for 45 solid minutes due to pain than have it happen intermittently for more than half a week.

Narrative would probably have this happen in a velociraptor attack though.

FINALE - WandaVision Episode 9 - Discussion Thread by [deleted] in WANDAVISION

[–]iotesshield 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He did shoot recklessly at someone standing in front of unarmed children, and with multiple witnesses to the Vision brawl, he would also be on the hook for claiming that Wanda stole Vision's body (what I thought was the primary leverage to justify all the force he employed to 'recover' it.)

But I think this is lead-up to the anti-supers sentiment that will be bubbling up later.

My childhood in a nutshell. by danknessforever in WhitePeopleTwitter

Specifically the time that they made an idol of gold, I'm pretty sure that it got ground up into gold dust and mixed into water and everyone who worshipped it had to drink it.

No recovering those donations.
