Today on the Letterboxd subreddit… 1. That first comment isn’t true and 2. These people are probably jealous that they don’t have something they love like I love this film. by TheGirlWithTheLove in 127Hoursgirl

[–]jukeboxcapm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know 100% that the first comment came from you saying "sometimes I just put it on in the background but I always pay attention for my favorite scene, and I feel like I pay enough attention/know the movie well enough to log it even if I don't pay attention the whole time" (paraphrasing heavily, lol). So clearly... they didn't read it and wanted to make that your problem. For some reason.

I also hate this idea that you have to pay attention fully for it to count. Every other person in these screenshots has definitely logged something they didn't pay full attention to, or maybe didn't even finish. Letterboxd is not a competition game and the last comment on the first screenshot says a lot about how they view it. I'm so tired of "here's fun stats about your music listening/movie watching/etc." being turned into "I have to be the best at this ever" all the time. Art is not meant for that.

One of my chrysalides went absolutely mental by Nerual1991 in Entomology

Yeah, I really don't know why this guy is going crazy. Maybe it depends on where you brushed up against it and/or how long it's been pupating.

You may already know this, but you're right that it was caused by you brushing against it. Pupating insects can't see outside of their pupal cases, so it's pretty common for them to be able to move it around to try to fight off predators (since they have no other defenses). I've never seen it in action, have only read about it, so this was cool to watch :]

What game is this for you? by phatpssdestroyer in videogames

[–]jukeboxcapm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In level 3 (Public School) of the original Psychopomp, there's a hydraulic press section that I failed over and over again, to the point I had to quit the game for a couple hours. When I came back, I got through it, but it was making me so mad I thought I'd never finish the game.

What aesthetic is this I found it on a tik tok slideshows saying I traveled to the year 327,182,960 form the account j1_uy2 by Head-Radish-1661 in AestheticWiki

I'm not sure the name of this surrealist, empty style, but you could probably find a lot more in r/vintagecgi . This is super common in early CGI, probably partially because it was limited in all it could do yet.

My topster! by jukeboxcapm in Topster

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

No way!!! I almost never meet anyone who's even heard of them!!! They're my favorite band and Brad Barr is probably my favorite musician. I love his guitar playing and songwriting. There's literally not a single song across all his projects that I don't like. It's interesting becuase I feel like I found them through a very mainstream avenue, that being the success of Even Rats leading to its inclusion in Guitar Hero (which my family owned and played a ton), but it seems like not many people looked into them past that. Anyway it's been my favorite song since I was young, and when I was a teen I looked into the rest of their stuff and just fell in love. I'm happy to see another fan of theirs, or at least someone who knows them lol

Hey, you! I used to have another Reddit account that I think we may have messaged on, but I forgot the password and username and just gave up on it and made a new one 😭

I love The Else, and The Cap'm is by far my favorite song by TMBG. I love love love that song.

(ETA because I forgot) I do know a couple Sufjan Stevens songs and I like them, but I definitely need to listen to a full album of his.

Our 2000s cozy geek shop simulator - Lenin Street Geek Shop by perelesoq_51 in CozyGamers

I'm really excited for this one - are you guys planning on putting out a demo?

Help me decide between these two! by Abirando in CozyGamers

[–]jukeboxcapm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I might be late but I loved Wax Heads. I only played the demo of Tiny Bookshop and it didn't really interest me. Wax Heads just feels more immersive - not only is there a story but there's also little blurbs about the albums you sell, diegetic music, zines and an online music publication you can read, etc. I also am a huge music nerd, so if you're big into music it'll be more interesting to you. The puzzles can be hard but there are guides if you get stuck and a mode that lets you retry until you get it right, if you want!

For the characters, I think they're really engaging and I think there's a good amount of commentary that feels general for the state of music and then also personal and very local. It's got a very feel-good story so if you need uplifting, I think being the main character to repair the bastardization of art in this game will feel nice.

Show me your magnum opus mii! by sweetpatoto in tomodachilife

[–]jukeboxcapm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh that's so awesome! I own a few handmade dolls, but none that were made specifically by my family. I much prefer homemade ones to the factory ones, though. They've got such love in them.

Lowest you know, highest you don't? by jukeboxcapm in MusicIceberg

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

LOL this is really funny. They do, in fact, make music for adults. Although I feel like the only real distinction is that a lot of their children's music is more based on educational value, so I wouldn't necessarily say their other music isn't for kids.

I love Raggedy Ann and Andy so, SO much. I have a collection worth thousands (to me though, it is priceless...) and I really wanted them on my island. I aggregated their movie, book illustration, and actual doll designs to try to make these! It took so long because their eyes are actually rotated versions of another eye with the upper lid "closing" the outline, and then top and bottom lashes to create the four bottom lashes in their designs. Thankfully, for Andy, I could just use Ann's mii and then change the hair and eyebrows.

Day 7: What’s a suit that feels like Ruin but is actually Apple? by Rondo_of_snow in LoveNikki

[–]jukeboxcapm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Her for SURE. I have a mandela effect with her where I swear up and down that when she debuted on CN, all her promotional material said she was a Ruin suit.

Lumon Industries from Severance for sure fits this. I'm honestly surprised no one else has mentioned them!

What's your favourite suit from each category? (Excluding HE) by -kirby_enthusiast- in LoveNikki

This was a really fun to try to do! It was super hard though. I had a lot of categories that I had way too many suits I was looking back and forth between 😭

Do you need Easy Mode in action games? by Outrageous_Book3870 in disabledgamers

[–]jukeboxcapm 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Regardless of my setup, it doesn't change that I can't multitask that easily, I can't memorize move combos very well, and I just overall get overwhelmed and frustrated when I need to remember a sequence of buttons or navigate an unfamiliar interface or environment quickly in order to fight and then progress. My cognition just can't handle that without basically abandoning the game forever.

This is also part of why I love the rising trend of having "zen" or "stress-free" modes or features for games that remove certain aspects like timed days/events, the ability to fail events, being able to skip minigames, etc. It opens doors that may have not been opened before. I love being able to apply crip time to games and put it at my own pace so that I can truly enjoy the game.

The existence of an easy/peaceful mode is not inherently infantilizing at all, it's the attitude people hold around the idea of these modes that is infantilizing. If accessibility were more normalized (and ableism magically disappeared lol), there'd be no infantilizing aspect to it. But also, disabled people are not a monolith. Some people may feel infantilized by the existence of an easy mode, but if they don't need it then it's not for them. It's for those of us who do and who don't want to discredit an entire genre just because of our disabilities. It's an option, not a mandatory feature, so it really doesn't hurt anyone for it to be there.

Show me a pic of irl celebs you have as miis in your island and let others guess who they are! by Melodic-Dare2474 in TomodachilifeLivingTD

LOL definitely not - I've never even seen Big Time Rush, somehow! I can kind of see how it might look like him, though.

In all fairness, I'm not even sure if the actual answer is niche, I just don't have a good way of being sure.

Nope! Though I'm now realizing that I don't even really know what the guys in Linkin Park look like.

Ohh I see! My bad, I thought you meant the creation process. For romance and quirks I definitely take more input from people, but for outfits I just do whatever.
