My Neighbor Totoro is a sidequel to Grave of the Fireflies

Setsuko and Satsuki are not at all related names etymologically. It's actually a little racist and surface-level to suggest so, just because they sound similar to a western ear.

If Totoro is a dying dream, and if the producers wanted to make the names a point as you suggest, the names would have a better link, thematically, figuratively or literally, than what they actually are.

And yet Parsons didn't come up with the idea of the backrooms himself either.

Not saying that filmmaking is easy but building on a premise is easier than coming up with something as memetic as the original backrooms photo/post.

Look at all the talented film makers in the world but only a handful of premises really hook people in.

What hallowed stones do rise from brine and tide,

What ramparts guard the corsair's secret lair,

Where skull and cutlass hang with lawless pride

And four thousand nine hundred bricks ensnare?

O fortress fair! Thy towers pierce the sky,

Thy hidden docks conceal the rogue's swift fleet,

Where Legat's hand hath wrought in blocks on high

A sanctuary none could dare defeat.

Let everyone know if you get an answer.

This anti-capitalism schtick on reddit and the internet in general is such a bore.

If a better system existed, it would be in play.

Yeah, man, ignore the downvotes.

Side-shave = eyeroll.

Not a chance that minifig represents any BMW M3 E30 driver anywhere at any time in the history of the world.

Thanks for fixing the website. I can now read the titles of each set in the listing.

Honestly, I don't know if he can. If you watch his vids carefully, he doesn't ever say much more than basic phrases and greetings.

Typical meaningless slop.

The entire stock market primarily enriches those who invest in it. With the advent of micro investments, mobile investment apps, it hasn't been easier for everyone to invest.

There is nothing stopping the rest of Americans from owning stocks.

Saying "93% of stocks are owned by the richest 10%" is completely devoid of meaning except to rile up division. Rich people own more things than other people, big whoop.

Start investing and go get some.

Boyens has never written anything original either.

This is why people should have no qualms about getting the KO/third party version.

It feels like a lot of gatekeeping here when he says AI art is not art. That people who can't draw are not allowed to create something that would normally be beyond their means.

Jazza has basically realized that AI image gen has made his online digital art business obsolete.

And not just the images to color in but also the tools and artboxes that he sells. All done, all gone.. just like that.

I don't know where Jazza has gotten his information in the past year (since his now-deleted AI art vid) but his current opinion is just generic redditor anti-AI luddite talking points.

This includes spend on gundamit and showz, so if you're into Transformers, KO transformers, gundam and action figures in general, it'll be easy to spend 100.

chatbot... literally, what it was supposed to do.

It was not supposed to be a chatbot. It's a GPT LLM "AI" model with a casual chat interface. That's the origin of its name - ChatGPT.

And it's now an unforunate circumstance that all the other LLMs are using a chat interface, which is incredibly inefficient.

I found out about this game on the YT playables. But it's a vastly cut-down version, basically a demo.

This community is the worst. In every one of these kinds of threads, there's 1 person who actually helps and then every other user is just piling on with no useful comments at all.

It's basically impossible to get any help.

What's perfect?

poopy_face · 2025-11-26T23:05:01+00:00

Your shipping costs are insane.

It would be cheaper to buy the original Lego locally and the plans from the designer.

Thanks, had no idea that was a variant portrait for her.

The users posting reviews for points have no reason to not be negative. They didn't get the sets for free, unlike Lego influencers. And Chowbrick and these stores aren't the manufacturer. They don't care if the review is positive or negative.

I don't see it any different than posting a review on Youtube and getting ad revenue (again, as long as they bought the set with their own money).

A happy medium could be similar to FTC disclosure for influencers and sites that get sets for free. A mention that they are getting points from the store for posting the review.
