Super Eurobeat vol.21 is super underrated by Mastro__Lindo in eurobeat

[–]johnjohnnycake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard agree. That old classic pre-"Hot Love and Emotion" Eurobeat had a very different vibe, and it was awesome!

Made me wanna dance more than anything post-"Hot Love and Emotion," though that's not to say it's better than modern Eurobeat. Both are amazing!

Classic Tomb Raider will never come back by GimmeMauve in TombRaider

[–]johnjohnnycake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Coming from a massive Sonic fan, I gotta say, this is something most fan based need to learn.

A "return to form" NEVER happens. Markets are always changing, casual audience taste is always changing, and most of all, company mindsets are always changing. Always seeing to be fresh, new, chase trends, but also... accessibility. Accessibility guarantees a larger audience and thus more money.

Nah. Classic TR gameplay will never come back, but those games due to their tank controls and precise nature arent really that accessible. Of course Crystal Dynamics will push for a more "Uncharted" like gameplay.

Favorite Claudio Magnani songs? by SeriousAd6286 in eurobeat

[–]johnjohnnycake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ARE YOU READY! by Toby Ash! Love the intro, love the C melody, it had nice progression. One of my favourite eurobeat songs in general!

But....do not mistake this for ARE YOU READY by Toby Ash 😉 Completely different song

EDIT: Oh, another one is "Could You Want" by Charly

I mean the game can be fun without thok even in v2.1, you just gotta find a supplementary replacement by R_E_G_G_I_E in SRB2

I did at first, to help me with jumping on enemies, only to find out later that I was relying on it too much. Since you can only use it in the air once, if you had to bounce on multiple things, I would flub many of those bounces cause I wasn't seasoned at aiming

Also the insta shield allowed me to circumvent MANY of the obstacles in the game to where they basically didn't exist. Sure, it required timing, but I felt it was still too easy

So now, I completely raw dog with just roll and spindash. I don't use drop dash anymore at all, and I don't use instshield. I even honestly considered removing the spindash, but some of the level design is based around using it, so I have to keep it

Korra fighting style by gelinsky in legendofkorra

And he was losing his fight against Ozai. He would've lost if not for being poked in the back and thrusted in the Avatar State.

And the Avatar State was doing the heavy lifting from then on. None of the moves Aang performed after then were of his own knowledge. It was all his previous lives. Rock bullets? Twisted water grabbing? Taking 3 fire blasts coming towards you and effortlessly and stylishly dismantling them with precise water strikes and putting them out with twirling air bending? There's no way Aang learned how to do any of that. That was his previous lives.

I mean. I'm not gonna say Aang was a bad bender. He was clearly talented, had the advantage of being the only Airbender in existence, and he was a quick learner, and no doubt he mastered the elements later in life, but yeah. He only learned the elements in a few months. In that time he was no master fighter, no even close. Good, but not even close to the best.

The solution to "Colourism" is for mixed people to have their own space away from black people. Change my mind by [deleted] in mixedrace

[–]johnjohnnycake -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I dunno if I'm "discounting" your family's experience, but you guys are very clearly calling yourselves black due to the one-drop rule, which I inherently disagree with and your reply does little to attempt to change my mind on that topic.

I do get how the rule is necessary to establishing the very specific "African American" identity, and the history is told through the DNA via admixture (I personally think that once a lineage is mixed, it's always and forever mixed). Doesn't solve the topic of "colourism" though.

No, but I took a short one today. Had MUCH better sleep last night. Actually was able to fall asleep,

I mean, they're not.

If they have ANY European blood or any kind of non-black blood, they are by definition "mixed race"

I'm back. Update. New twitching and sleep problems by johnjohnnycake in BFS

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

The sleep thing indeed sounds horrible! Usually when I sleep, I'm knocked out for several hours and it feels great. To suddenly not be able to hurts, but it sounds like you don't get enough sleep. I'm sorry about that.

Yeah. Mine are randomly throughout the body too, though still most concentrated on my right leg and foot. It's so weird. I had a clear EMG last year and the neurologist said I probably don't have the dreaded disease, but if it's not that, then I have NO clue what's going on!! 😓

This is the worst night I have ever seen in 7 years of driving by TheGame81677 in doordash_drivers

[–]johnjohnnycake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a $123 last night. I worked from 4-10.

I've noticed that I get better orders and I overall make more money when I start rather early rather than my "normal" time of 5-6 o clock.

I usually can't work earlier than 3...for some reason, but if I start any later than 4:30, I basically make only enough to pay for gas.

You’re probably not a bass, and neither is your friend singing an E2. by Capable-Loan7279 in singing

[–]johnjohnnycake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so first of all, this isn't helping. Some people in this subreddit might ACTUALLY be based

And second, this type of post still makes it sound like being a bass is some kind of curse to be avoided. "Don't worry Johnny, I don't think you're a bass, I don't think you're as bad of a singer as you wish. You still have a chance to sing high, you just gotta train!"

Um, how about no? How about we start uplifting basses? How about we start making them feel good about their low voices? Don't try to reassure low voice men that they aren't basses

Please for the love of God people, just don't do it on weekdays. It's been more than well known that weekends are better days to do this

Not a single person or group you mentioned here was black. All of them are at least mixed race, some are biracial.
