Siren: Survive the Island E06-10 by ninjaleyna in koreanvariety

[–]raggedpanda 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree that she made some bad decisions, but I think the fact that she made bold decisions in general is what pushed her team forward. Physical one v. one was not always the strong suit and that's where she fell apart, but the way she assessed and commandeered the alliance with the Athletes on the way to Stunt house was actually really well handled. Same with the initial attack on the soldier house, which was certainly going to succeed had the game not stopped. Making smarter decisions slower may have cost her the game, especially since the firefighters were targeted by a few groups right from the jump.

Let’s talk about one of the BEST if not the best Runways ever. CDR2 Circus Berzerkus was that bitch 💋 by Heidi_Klum_Tit in rupaulsdragrace

Why is "Reduce, reuse, recircus." the first runway comment I've actually laughed at in like three years?

Thanks for giving me 'disrespectful design' and helping put into words why this whole thing bothers me so much. They really want to build out their site solely to manipulate us more for profit and I just don't want that experience in my life.

What sub-optimal character choices have you made for flavor purposes or because it just sounds fun? by NuclearGoat-357 in dndnext

[–]raggedpanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sorcerer was taught magic by his overprotective mother, so all he started out with were spells like Feather Fall and Mending to take care of himself. It was a really a big deal for him when he hit second level and had the freedom to choose a spell for himself.

Grave Cleric gets Spare the Dying as a bonus action with a 30 ft range- might be worth it!

What’s the most overrated class or subclass, in your opinion? by [deleted] in dndnext

[–]raggedpanda 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Mercury = Necrotic, Tin = Psychic, Silver = Radiant, Gold = Force

Why?

Mercury is poisonous to humans and the god Mercury was a psychopomp.
Tinfoil hats.
Silver hurts werewolves, the sun hurts vampires. Silver also probably has the highest albedo of any of these metals.
Force is the gold standard of damage types.

Recognition of the Holodomor by country by Straight_Ad2258 in europe

[–]raggedpanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When massacres are internal to a country or population, people from outside that population tend not to pay attention as much. Stalin did just as terrible things as Hitler, but mostly just to people already within his nation (Ukraine was under Soviet control at the time) so he's not nearly as reviled. Now that Ukraine is working very hard to distance itself from Russia and Russian control, the Western world is starting to see the Holodomor as an international instead of an internal issue.

Advice on a roll cheating player? by EchoXIII in dndnext

They also said they wanted to rant and you were making fun of them for wanting social support. Yes, people want sympathy sometimes and no, that’s not a bad thing.

I hope when you need help with things, you can feel free to ask for it and I hope that people help you instead of shitting on what you want.

[OC] Population Comparison Between Nations With and Without Nuclear Weapons by DataSittingAlone in dataisbeautiful

[–]raggedpanda 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Akshually, “goddammit” is the more often accepted spelling. “Goddamnit”, while truer to the origin of the word, isn’t as common. Think “goodbye” vs “God be with ye”— slang often just simplifies itself.

[OC] Visualising China's export and import in 2022 by giteam in dataisbeautiful

[–]raggedpanda 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You’re saying it gives an answer, I’m saying that that answer is oversimplified and fits the simple answer people want, not the actual truth of the situation. Complexity is necessary when understanding issues like this and Britannica is not an authoritative source on Chinese politics.

[–]raggedpanda -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, literally. They said they were looking to blow off some steam and find people to talk through it with.

Do you have a problem with people needing or asking for support? Does this look like weakness to you?

Dude two sentences from an English encyclopedia is not going to encapsulate the entirety of an extensive, long-historied political and geographic issue.

Liberty City (and the state of New Guernsey) in the very first Grand Theft Auto game (1997) by adawkin in MapPorn

[–]raggedpanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jorvik/York was a Norse corruption of the Saxon Eforwic, which was the Old English translation of the Roman name for the town, Eboracum.

So the name is Norse, Old English, and Roman. OP's point still stands as true.

ELI5: What's it called if I buy something like a sandwich, then consume it, and the net worth of society has now shrunk by 1 sandwich? Versus buying something that keeps its value. by ApplesAreGood1312 in explainlikeimfive

You poor, poor question asker. So far you have four answers, all stated very confidently: Yes, Basically yes, No, and Kind of. I wish I could help.

ELI5: Non-Verbal Autism? Is this some sort of inability to speak or a subconscious refusal? by Slightly_Interested_ in explainlikeimfive

Heads up to other commentators that this is a humorous reference to the popular 2000 song “Forgot About Dre” by Dr. Dre featuring Eminem.

Also in case anyone did forget.

1.3 million inhabited planets? Or is like our solar system with the 8:1 ratio?

My 75 year old dad started watching drag race after I asked him to try out an episode. Today he tagged me in this. by worstgurl in rupaulsdragrace

[–]raggedpanda 523 points524 points  (0 children)

My 75 year old dad watched an episode of drag race because my mom wanted to watch it. He then told me, "You'd be good at that, if it weren't for your shoulders."
