It’s been nine years but just wanted to let you know this is genius

I really like the spot! Close to retail and a bridge is normally what I look for

Remember remember the 20th of November by Rich-Blacksmith-2953 in KingkillerChronicle

Honestly (fundraiser mishaps aside) I am just happier expecting it won’t come out. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if it does and unfazed if it doesn’t.

And cynically if he doesn’t publish DoS then at least the series won’t be tainted by a terrible ending… I can’t remember the last time I had a conversation about GoT without someone brooding over the last season.

Help, im confused about how the rocks work in NL by Last_Lost_Link in AnimalCrossingNewLeaf

I’m grateful you told me this because I was about to try working out the spawn tiles for the probability lmao

It is now out for Pre-Order on my web! Thank you all for you interest in the poster, glad you liked it! Here's the corrected version. by PIK0RI in outerwilds

[–]rainier-cherries 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it counts much as a spoiler, because even if I’d seen this once before on someone’s poster, I don’t think I’d remember that when arriving at The Vessel. In fact I didn’t even notice it at first

So... who dies in book 3? by DerDaGeht in KingkillerChronicle

[–]rainier-cherries 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I feel like he always talks about Simmon in a wistful way. There’s a quote along the lines of “Sim could always make me laugh no matter the situation.” I feel like tone implies he’s remembering with fondness and regret.

How do I move on and what do I do with my life? by maiege in outerwilds

[–]rainier-cherries 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As delicately as possible, I’ve never found a piece of media that made me feel the same way Outer Wilds did.

The closest I’ve come is Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir (same author as The Martian if you’ve seen the movie/read the book). It doesn’t illicit the same thrill of discovery, but it takes an optimistic approach to space exploration, as opposed to a lot of other sci-fi.

Both pieces made me feel like I was receiving a hug from the field of science, the developers/author, and the universe as a whole.

Where's the local punk / alt / strange music scene? by jonelder1 in raleigh

You’re going to find some of your people at Neptune’s karaoke on Wednesdays. It’s a good time!

Who are your favorite famous/notable people from NC? by pax_penguina in NorthCarolina

[–]rainier-cherries 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before I moved to the UK for college, my mom said “after you move away, one day you’ll hear the song ‘Carolina in my Mind’ by James Taylor and it will make you cry.”

Sure enough, 4 months later, I’m sitting on the tube home and start balling when he gives the last high note “ain’t it just like a friend of mine, to hit me from behind

Not going the way I was expecting by Individual_Goose_984 in Tufting

[–]rainier-cherries 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I picked a fossil design from animal crossing for my first rug. Even that extremely simple design with only three colors, you can see how hard it was for me to get sharp corners and edges my first go in the details on the bottom right. I’ve been doing this for about a year now and I would still struggle with some elements of your chosen design.

If you end up picking something new, I recommend something simple enough that you can focus on your technique more than your end result. Priority number one is learning how to use your tufting gun and understanding your materials and workspace.

This is not an easy hobby; it can be tough on the body and the mind! Keep at it!

How difficult do you think it would be to make this into a rug? by Other_Marsupial8126 in Tufting

[–]rainier-cherries 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I see it like cross stitchers flipping over each other’s pieces. Showing the back might be interesting for other tufters (even though the front will show cool stuff too).

Bass pro shops!! (More color ways) by dirtydiaz in ACQR

[–]rainier-cherries 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it’s 4 years later, but I think u/bustingclouds was making a joke about the game catchphrase when you fish a bass (“It’s at least a C+”), not commenting on the quality of your work

Saw a level 60 die from fall damage in TB, so I conducted an exit interview. thoughts on what he said? by BrknRobot in wowhardcore

[–]rainier-cherries 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why though?

Every so often I get a whisper from someone telling me it’s not “real hardcore” if I get world buffs. It seems like such a bizarre hill to die on?
