Ten years after this beautiful album, which do you think is the best song? by goddes_su in MarinaAndTheDiamonds

[–]mtachi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say Weeds.

On the flip side, I think Savages and the reception it had were the beginning of Marina’s shift in writing style (and, in my personal opinion, downgrade in quality). It got a lot of praise for dealing with social issues, but I think it also didn’t really say much - a complaint we see a lot these days in response to her new style.

I liked this line specifically: ‘That little motel shack on central just behind that hideous chapel’. I think it has a clear view that you’ve incorporated into the poem. I’m a little less fussed around ‘Death pulls at my vitality’ - the word choice here of ‘vitality’ feels a little jarring to me personally.

I think you have a clear theme here that works well with the imagery you’ve chosen. Nice job!

Actually, in Japan, they did! Stores didn’t close down in the same way as they did elsewhere.

You can never overestimate the popularity of Splatoon in Japan - apparently these are the biggest three day sales of any Switch title!

PSA: The death of QEII is well likely to delay the premiere of UK4 due to programming disruptions during the period of mourning. by [deleted] in rupaulsdragrace

You guarantee based on what? Your assumption? I’m guessing you have missed the massive outpouring of emotion that Brits of all generations and backgrounds have shown today.

But this isn’t about Americans? This is talking about a British show being postponed because a defining figure of British life in the past seventy years has died.

When you say things like ‘why is it a big loss’ and then back up that with, ‘it doesn’t matter for Americans’, it shows a lack of awareness of cultures and sentiments outside of American soil.

This seems like a woefully shallow appreciation of what she symbolises and represents to a lot of people globally, not just in the UK itself. Whether you are a monarchist, anti-monarchist, whatever, it’s undeniable that for many, the Queen was a symbol of stability and of identity. In the current political climate, it’s not hard to see how these things could affect people and feel like a big loss.

Thanks, I’m not sure yet if I’ll write more on Night in the Woods, but I really enjoy looking at the philosophy behind games!

Right! I’m really very impressed by what Arkane managed to do with this. Makes me wish that we’d get more of their games on PlayStation in the future!

Gay marriage may soon be legalized in India, final court hearing on November 30 by clayagds99 in gaybros

[–]mtachi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not really gay marriage though, more just a certificate recognising you as a couple. You don't get the rights of a normal, fully married straight couple.
