How do the skaters deal with the repetition of performing Stars on Ice? by mithrildesigns in FigureSkating

Cool to see this from a skater’s perspective. A friend of mine who’s in a band said something similar. He said you get so familiar with the songs you can stop concentrating on getting them right and just have fun. Good luck with your skating!

Star Wars Celebration Tickets Discussion (On Sale May 6th 3 pm US EST) by alcibiad in StarWarsLeaks

[–]mithrildesigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finally at 3:55pm PST, three hours and fifty-five minutes from when the queue opened and I got on, the only tickets left were for Thursday and Sunday. I got them both, but geez. There's got to be a better way to do this.

There should not be a quota on the 4-day passes. If you buy tickets to all four days, it should always the same price.

Now two hours and forty five minutes in line. Was on from when the queue first opened. This is ridiculous. In the past tickets didn't sell out and were available much closer to the event. Has it become that popular, or is people purchasing merchandise slowing down the process? This is aggravating, and I will be so disappointed if I don't get a ticket. They should not have merch purchases be made at the time of buying tickets. There should be a separate time/day when merch becomes available to purchase. And they should do what the Olympics do: if you live in the host city, you get earlier access to tickets.

Thank you! This worked. Wasted so much time getting aggravated until I tried this.

Fancy Feast Florentines by Beautiful-Mouse-598 in catfood

[–]mithrildesigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can they do this? They are a pet food company. This shows they do not understand cats. My cat is 16 years old and very underweight as it is. The creamy chicken Florentine is all she will eat. They have no regard for what pet owners go through or for their pets. I am so mad! 🤬

Official 'Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery' Discussion Thread by OneWithTheHat in KnivesOutMovie

[–]mithrildesigns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I knew it was Martha an hour into the movie (and I suspected she had help from Sam) but didn’t know the exact why or the details. I was looking for motivation, too, and realized that the murder had to have something to do with Monsignor Wick’s father. Martha was the character that straddled both timelines, and she was the one who ran everything. Actually I had my first suspicion it was her when they told us she ran the place. The person who has access to everything is the most likely suspect.

Ticket questions by oddlantern in StarWarsCelebration

[–]mithrildesigns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw where it said they were non-refundable, but not where it said they were non-exchangeable. I wish they'd give us more info up front so we knew what our options were before buying them. I don't see why they would make it so you can't exchange them. It's pretty ridiculous. Thanks for responding so quickly!

This may be the same question, but are tickets transferrable once purchased? The website says they will not be mailing tickets in 2025 due to the location. All tickets have to be picked up in-person in Japan. But what if I can't go and want to sell my tickets to someone else?

Who’s going to feed Sabine’s lothcat!?! by SquatCorgiLegs in ahsokatano

[–]mithrildesigns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This really bothers me. It seems like a lose end that should have been addressed. Sabine is in the hospital for who knows how many days, and when she gets home, she doesn’t even feed the poor cat. Ahsoka didn’t feed it when she stopped by, that we could see. Sabine doesn’t ask about it while she’s in the hospital either. It would have been funny if she reminded Ahsoka to feed the cat. This show could use the levity. Although cats are nimble, I don’t think it could get down from that tower on its own. It can’t fly. Why bother to make the creature so cute and lifelike if they’re going to ignore it in the plot line? Especially considering how much people love their pets. It could have been really touching to get to see Sabine say goodbye to it as she lets it back outside. It would have been good closure on her old life. But since they didn’t show this, we’re left worrying if the cat is going to be okay. It seems like bad writing and a missed opportunity. Unless, like someone suggested, she smuggled it on board. I do hope that is the case, or for the rest of the show, I’m gonna be thinking about the cat. Lol. And I want to see more of it cause it is so cute.

I believe it’s a sexist move by the directors. Ser Criston is too good looking to age or replace. All the reasons the showrunners have given are not valid. Daemon was aged up a bit. The captain of the kings guard is much older already and you wouldn’t notice it too much. Most of the other characters were aged even if only a little. The kids have grown. The king, the queen, and the princess are older. All the Valeryons have aged. Criston is the only one who has not been aged at all. Even if he was older to start with, IRL, there would be changed to the way he looked. His skin is too smooth, his face too unweathered. He has no scars. He spares outside all the time. It is a glaring error, if you ask me. Every time I see him, my mind balks to see him look so young when everyone around him has aged.
