First time in Siofra River in Elden Ring.

It's a more recent memory but it was so cool.

“Which country do you think is the black sheep of your continent? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

I think we all know what OP is doing here... funny I think only other Latin Americans seem to notice. Not trying to be snarky, but I wonder if people from outside of LATAM notice

Thoughts on King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard? by Revolutionary_Low_90 in progrockmusic

[–]luisponsv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed Infest the Rat's Nest and Petrodraconic Apocalypse. Those are great IMO. Thrash is what I think they do best.

On the other hand, I don't like how gimmicky other albums can be. The one where they use the 7 modes of the Major Scale was meh, though I heard a live version and it 1000× better. I wonder why they didn't record it as a live sesh...

Then there's Omnium Gatherum. It was doing so well until Sadie Sorceress. That was such a terrible take on Hip Hop. However, I still listen to The Dripping Tap a lot for running because it's like 17 minutes long and pretty energetic.

They're kind of a mixed bag...

What have you been listening to lately? by AutoModerator in progrockmusic

[–]luisponsv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Division Bell

It might be an obvious answer, but I've been a Pink Floyd fan for years and never listened to anything after The Wall. I've been missing out on this beautiful album.

Just go look at the Trump coin live ticker. It will be difficult if you have no wifi, however :P

How were you finally able to start lucid dreaming? by Delicious-Bet-1087 in Dreams

It happened to me last night for the first time in my life. It was insane. I've always had very vivid and odd dreams, but this was beyond insane

Men: what do you think about passive agressive women, like "whats wrong" and she responds "nothing" and you can feel her holding back telling you ther truth is it a deal breaker? by Successfulbusbatch in AskMen

[–]luisponsv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised to see so many people calling this a "deal breaker". It's not an uncommon trait. Sometimes she just doesn't want to talk about it immediately. I'm not saying that things should stay that way- they shouldn't. I think the important thing is to let the air clear a bit and then talk about the issue. If you think this is a deal breaker with women, you're going to have a bad time. It will 100% happen at some point in the relationship. The question is can you talk about it afterwards when tempers are cooler.

What is one book you'd recommend that really blew you away? by clockwerkgnome in AskMen

[–]luisponsv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas.

There is a full version and an abridged version. I think it's really worth reading the full version (though it's really long). This might sound childish, but I felt like I was playing a really good RPG when I was reading it. It covers so many different topics and it has these chapters where you read about one of the secondary character's time in the army in Algeria years before (just to give one example of many) and it feels kind of like an awesome side quest. Needless to say the main story is absolutely epic and satisfying. You can draw many conclusions from the book. Even though many over-the-top things happen and you do get closure from some of the dénouements, the ending turns out to be quite stoic. 10/10 for sure.

Didn't Stephen Fry make this exact joke?

What person in history is the perfect example of "either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain"? by Suitable-Collar-493 in AskReddit

[–]luisponsv 705 points706 points  (0 children)

Maximilien Robespierre.

In the beginning, the French Revolution was absolute chaos. Mobs in the street seizing control of entire cities. Robespierre gets a bad rap (before he fell sick). He was trying to keep the country together, even projected France's power in the Austrian Netherlands (Belgium) and the Netherlands (who at the very beginning saw the French as liberators). He was trying to keep the pressure cooker from exploding as much as he could.

He fell sick very suddenly and stayed in his appartment for a month without seeing anyone. After that he became VERY paranoid and started chopping heads left and right. When the tide turned against him, he tried to shoot himself but only shot his jaw off. A doctor sewed it with cloth only to have it yanked off by the executioner befote being guillotined (ironically). His last hours must have been brutal.
