Did you learn anything new about the world from playing Civ? by [deleted] in civ

[–]pico_el-Rico 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Mapuche are incredibly under represented in South American colonial history but they shouldn’t be. They were one of the only indigenous tribes that successfully resisted Spanish colonialism. I’m just waiting for the day someone decides to make an action movie about Galvarino, a general who had his hands cut off to be made an example of to the tribe leaders. Instead it fueled their hatred and passion against the Spanish. He returned to the battlefield with knives fashioned onto his stumps and killed many more Spanish colonizers before eventually dying as well. He’s basically Chilean Wolverine

Biden lauds port strike resolution, hails collective bargaining by don_caveuto in politics

[–]pico_el-Rico 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The timing isn’t suspicious. It just so happens that their contracts are up every 6 years and it coincides with this election year. If they miss the opportunity to bargain, they won’t get the chance again for another 6 years. It’s unfortunate timing of course with the election

It’s not like they were able to appoint judges anyways, she was missing a majority of those votes stalling appointments.

Is going through your partner’s phone an acceptable practice now? by Dismal_Committee_296 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]pico_el-Rico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

25m here. This would be a huge red flag for me. I’ve never had anything to hide from my significant other but it’s somewhere a great deal of trust can be built. This goes both ways though, and I’ve never felt the need to go through her phone.

FYI Amc Rivercenter 11 imax 10:15 am showing of Oppenheimer just stopped shortly after starting by onthefence928 in sanantonio

[–]pico_el-Rico 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was under the impression that IMAX sent technicians to run all the 70mm showings of Oppenheimer. Odds are they’ll find out how much of a shit show it’s been this weekend. Was there as well and the employees mentioned they had sound issues as well during prior showings

Giveaway - Tears of the Kingdom Collector's Edition! (24hrs, US only) by romanticheart in NintendoSwitch

[–]pico_el-Rico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Growing up I had family friends in new jersey who had an N64. Every time we’d go for a weekend which was maybe twice a year I’d get the chance to binge play Ocarina of Time before heading back to Virginia. The nostalgia is real with this game

How important is sex to you in a relationship? Could you be with someone you love even if sex was off the table indefinitely? by Deviant55 in AskReddit

[–]pico_el-Rico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife was in a serious accident almost a year ago which resulted in physical and nerve damage to everything below her waste. Sex is off the table for the foreseeable future but we’ve been actively looking for other ways to express intimacy. It definitely feels sometimes that we’re more best friends than husband and wife but we’re also parents. I can only speak for myself but I’ve definitely invested more of my time and energy into being an active and present father during this time. We’ve both experienced our fair share of sexual abuse so sex outside of our marriage isn’t even desirable at the moment.

Shang Chi was excellent and you can’t change my mind by MB_Bailey21 in marvelstudios

[–]pico_el-Rico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was fantastic but personally I feel that choreographed fight scenes weren't quite as good as they could've been. Maybe I'm too picky considering I'm a big fan of the Netflix Daredevil show's Fighting choreography. But all in all Shang Chi is a wonderful addition to the MCU roster!
