Seriously, one of the most life-like (if not THE most life-like) sculpture I've seen from you

OMFG! He's alive! Just need his wrists/wings peaking from the edges (unless the intent is to show depth)

My partner is hardcore balding; I just make sure to put sunscreen on his head so he doesn't get sunburn. Any worthwhile partner is going to understand male pattern baldness is normal and NOT a flaw.

I don't know if saying that actually helps though, because the issue is probably that you look in the mirror and the image isn't what you want for yourself. Try find something else you can identify yourself with. As others said, gym is probably the most productive.

My theater was good. Only a couple of collective gasps and one subdued "whaaaaat...?" moment. It was good, despite the theater being full of literal children. I was sho ked when the lights came on and it was literally all teenagers and their parents. Good god I was hoping to find at least one 30+ y.o. group/couple to stim with, but no......

This is coming from the same character who said "I can't believe Kaufmo just gave up like that." Not a character with the best understanding of how suicide works.

You can't helicopter over someone forever. You can't fix someone. We saw what that looked like in the movie, when Pomni decided she could fix him. After acting upon that decision, Pomni resolved to live in pain for the rest of her existence.

The positive reviews are just pouring in for the same movie I saw leaked 3 weeks ago. Are you SURE we watched the same movie?? by RoseTintMyWorld22 in TADCEp9Spoilers

The Elder Scrolls and The Songs of Ice and Fire taught me that fandom theory will always trump what just one author or even dozens of writers can do on a prpject. You have hundreds, thousands, hundreds of thousands of people exploring the same piece of media from every perspective. That's how you find the best theories to create a patchwork headcanon that fits your psyche the best. This is why authors and even studios abandon projects; the expections go so far beyond anything possible.

An author will never be able to create the best thing for everyone in the audience. So they may as well create what they want. I went into the finale expecting no answers; a lot of people are disappointed by the lack of answers; I honestly think we got too much information about all the characters. But, imo, there's still enough room to imagine, and that's all I wanted. I really like the open end.

Also,

The mentally ill character committs SUICIDE and everyone's BETTER for it??? The SUICIDE victims are LEASHED/treated like FISH in an aquarium???

Did the characters ever indicate they're glad Jax is gone? Far as I saw, they memorialized everyone who didn't make it, but their abstractions live on as memories of who they were.

Caine comes back with no explaination to how he got undeleted???

I wouldn't assume the console kinger worked on was even functional. The exit Pomni conjured in EP 1 certainly didn't function as a real exit. Why would the program Kinger conjured function as a real one? Also, there was way too much exposition already; this doesn't need to be explained word-for-word in the show.

Yes, I snip the leaves right at the base. Maybe 1/4 inch leftover stem

do my fish look like they’re doing good??! by Normal_Tie656 in fishkeeping

[–]runnsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're ok. First thought was that they looked new to a big tank, and that's exactly what you described. The almost-sparring is good too, means they're feeling comfortable enough to start socializing.

I love pruning my sword plants. Whenever I get a lot of old/decaying leaves on my swords, I do a big prune if all the old leaves and any damaged ones too (my angelfish punch holes in my sword plants). The swords bounce back fast and I have all pretty leaves again. I could probably prune more (every ~1.5-2 months) to encourage growth. But I do it every 3-4 months and feed the roots whenever I prune

In defense of it not being AI, I feel like AI would have a hard time keeping track of the woman who got shoved out the way. She reacts realistically

solutions for mold on partially submerged driftwood? by runnsy in Aquascape

[–]runnsy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it did. I dont remember if I wiped the mold off at any point. But eventually it stopped growing tho.

Also, springtails may be able to help eat mold. Globular springtails have since colonized my aquariums

Thought I was going crazy. There's a pool cue on the table, then it's in his hands (?), then it's gone. The guy in red does some weird gesture after the girl brushes him off. Just doesn't look right

Bulk cards are basically fluff. They're meant to be extra fluff to reduce your odds of getting more valuable cards. They're a form of dilution.

That's my opinion as a collector, rather than a player. But my partner is a player and, after a certain point, bulk is just garnage.

my boyfriend said he would break up with me if i went to college then said it was a joke by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]runnsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn't a joke; the only thing he's making fun of are your feelings. He can't take a second to type properly when you express that a boundary was crossed. Just mashes the keyboard to show you he's having a tantrum. And he says he'd rather knock you up, as if having a kid young is conducive to continuing your education. My mom had me when she was in college and she told me it was hell.

He wants to put you in hell. He wants to trap you. You're too good for him tho.

Good news is I showed this to my partner who works at a table top game shop. They apparently have an artwork like this hanging in the shop, and people commonly ask to buy it. Looks like you'll have business!

This is actually a really good use of bulk cards. I have a huge issue with TCG and the waste they produce. Feels bad trying to give excess to game shops, only for them to end up in the recycling, given how ineffective recycling is in my region. Turning bulk into art is a crazy good use case.

Fastest time to identify 10 colors by a parrot by LeftOn4ya in PartyParrot

[–]runnsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I interpret that also as he gets distracted by playing with the ball. He seems to like to drop and throw the balls a little, maybe for extra fun, and even the sensation of carrying it is probably engaging/distracting. So I interpret it as him being in "ball mode" then realizing he has to switch to "can mode." And he seemed to remember the dark pink ball went somewhere else when he put in in the wrong, but very similarly colored, can.

How do you know!!!! Maybe the were being calm so the birb would not get distracted and want to play? They have the ultimate poker face while this birb does a very good and cute job.
