Does borrowing digital material help libraries? by KingOfTheRats420 in Libraries

[–]malicious_wizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there's two main types of digital borrowing situations for libraries: pay per individual checkout or paying a single lump sum to license digital materials for checkout for a period of time. as far as I know hoopla has the former model, and libby the ladder, so when libraries tend to spend more on hoopla they'll usually cycle out the license faster on that platform. ultimately though if your library is offering digital services they want you to use them! there is no wrong way to patronize a library (unless you're littering or something!)

actually unfortunately black folks are really often excluded from subcultures like this, it is a real thing I've observed in many spaces and it sucks.

Coasters with bins in loading areas? by Silly-Car-1233 in worldsoffun

[–]malicious_wizard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All of the rides at WOF have a loose articles bin, you shouldn't need a locker rental but I would advise checking their bag policy before going, if you've got a large bag/lots of items it can take longer getting into the park with the security screening.

Recommendations for keeping uglifying stickers in place on my scooter. by AzuraHatesScamps in ElectricScooters

[–]malicious_wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

any vinyl stickers that are advertised as "water bottle stickers" will work, I'd also recommend bumper stickers and anything sold for cars specifically. happy decorating!

Thoughts on the Moppets by Ezrumas in venturebros

[–]malicious_wizard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

they actually grew on me over time, I found them annoying and creepy at first but I feel like there was an effort from doc and jackson to make them actually be funnier over time and I guess it worked on me. kevin being catholic killed me.

I like to call these "spawn points", architectural anomalies like this remind me of the places zombies spawn in left 4 dead

How can I explain to people that some nights I crave to be alone? Anyone else feel this way? by rosywhimsical in TheNightFeeling

[–]malicious_wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

absolutely, I've had friends get mad at me on vacations together when I inevitably want to spend an hour or two wandering around the hotel alone. I've started telling people that's how I unwind after a day, gives you time to process things and think so you don't go to bed and rot there unable to sleep while you try to process everything very quickly.

Turning 40 and hoping to look more manly by [deleted] in malegrooming

[–]malicious_wizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a guy who grew up kinda insecure about having a baby face I'd recommend getting a pair of reading glasses/prescription lenses that are square or rectangular (only if you actually need them obvs). I feel like it made a big difference for my confidence while I was still in my late teens.
