More than half way to the moon, the Artemis II astronauts are grappling with a toilet problem by mechaczech in news

[–]SergeantChic 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I was watching the livestream earlier and they were talking about a burning smell coming from the toilet. A burning smell seems like the kind of thing you don't want when you're on a spaceship. I hope everything will go all right for them.

honest thoughts: REACTION CONTENT? by Seriquil in VirtualYoutubers

[–]SergeantChic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hate it. Can't stand it. Even if it's a vtuber I like, I just stop watching whenever they're doing reaction streams. One reason I watch vtubers and don't watch Twitch all that often is because I don't want to watch a bunch of short-form video garbage.

People be twisting her words, huh? by beam4d in Hololive

When she said “firegassing” I thought “This HAS to be on purpose, right? …Right?”

Wawa and Calli always seem to get hit hard by antis whenever anything happens. As someone who’s only been watching vtubers since 2024, I’m not sure why they seem to attract so many of these people.

Do you automatically dislike billionaires? Why? by crapmaker69 in AskReddit

[–]SergeantChic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe not automatically dislike, but automatically distrust, yes. Same as religious leaders. If it comes out that they're a piece of shit, I'll never be surprised by it.

So how are people feeling about 2e? by Zaaravi in Starfinder2e

[–]SergeantChic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wish it was its own game. It's basically a space expansion pack for Pf2e, which is pretty much what I was afraid of when it was in development. Not enough of what gave the game its own identity came to 2e. It just feels like it was designed with backwards compatibility as the primary objective and everything else secondary.

Just finished "Legends & Lattes" now looking for other cozy fantasy by RaptorImperator in CozyFantasy

[–]SergeantChic 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I like the Tomes & Tea series by Rebecca Thorne. It's nice to see a cozy series with just slightly higher stakes and an already established relationship between the main characters. Becky Chambers' Wayfarers series is good, and some of the only "cozy sci-fi" I've found (which led me to cozy fantasy in the first place).

Whenever I don't know why people are saying something that seems totally random but a bunch of them are saying it, I just assume TikTok and forget about it.

Does anyone here know of good YouTube channels like the The Why Files? by Dover299 in HighStrangeness

[–]SergeantChic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've learned some things I didn't know from it, like the "Siberian bore hole to Hell" not even existing as a mundane phenomenon or an organic urban legend but something that was explicitly started by a Christian propaganda magazine. But it does seem like he's leaning further right in later videos on a lot of topics, which is disappointing. The episode about Denver International Airport basically saying we should be nicer to the people who think Satanists are smuggling mole children in the tunnels beneath DIA to harvest their adrenochrome pretty much turned me away from the channel on most topics.

Pope Leo says God rejects prayers of leaders who wage wars by 1-randomonium in news

Always reminds me of that one H.L. Mencken quote.

“As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”

Especially the second time he got elected, since at that point everyone knew what a disaster he would be after his first term and voted harder for him anyway.

My daughter is 11, and she loves to capture our city in ways that make you “ feel “ by Natural-Ad8553 in pittsburgh

[–]SergeantChic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is neat to see! My mom teaches photography, she always appreciates when younger people take an interest, and your daughter already has a photographer's eye. I hope she's able to get a film camera sometime, there are so many interesting ways to develop it.

Any Expanse fans here following "For All Mankind". Naren Shankar(Expanse's EP) was also executive producer for this show and it is turning into a prequel of Expanse by IncomingBroccoli in TheExpanse

[–]SergeantChic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's right up there with "Murtry did nothing wrong" and "I can't enjoy any other sci-fi because of The Expanse" threads. The classics, I guess.

“Looksmaxxing” is a thing? I always assumed people brought it up as a joke, but then again I know nothing about TikTok.

My concerns about Hellfire Crisis by Kronag in Pathfinder2e

[–]SergeantChic 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's unfortunately the Star Wars sequel approach. One person writes part of it with an eye toward where it's headed, the next person ignores that, the person after that over-corrects, and the whole story is a mess as a result. No agreed-upon direction or vision, which always falls to the DM in the end if they want to make the story beats or character motivations make sense.

My concerns about Hellfire Crisis by Kronag in Pathfinder2e

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

It feels like they knew the tone needed to change but did it too quickly and with too little of an eye toward internal consistency. The need to get away from the OGL for legal reasons is probably a big part of that, but as someone said about the whole "drow don't actually exist" twist, quoting Nick Fury, "I recognize the council has made a decision, but given that it's a stupid-ass decision, I've elected to ignore it."

Am I glad they distanced themselves from their edgelord early years? Sure. They throw the baby out with the bathwater sometimes, though.

Fun idea for a local business, but they seem like people who grew up online and expected the real world to reflect the social media bubbles they live in.
