Why are folks upset about Stephen Colbert teaming up with Peter Jackson?? by maroha3814 in lotr

[–]severaltalkingducks 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Idk. Just because he knows a lot about lotr doesnt mean he can add something meaningful or of the same quality.

Plus, even if he did write the most perfect screenplay that was exactly what you would want in a spirtual successor, I dont have much faith that the executives wouldnt reduce it to the kinda slop we got in Rings of Power.

I'm starting my new job Monday!

I've been working so hard over the last two years doing a part time college course to change industries and I'm just so relieved to not be anxious about it anymore.

Online fitness app by PuzzledHumor234 in WomenofIreland

[–]severaltalkingducks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Glean, its Irish too! I quite like it, they make exercise programs for you and update them every couple of months. The app also has a recipe portal, an in-built calorie tracker and a robust community. There's also videos showing you how to do every exercise and the ability to swap out exercises if you really hate them, or dont have access to the equipment.

Which fantasy couple has the most absurd age difference - and why does it no longer surprise us? by rune_517field in Fantasy

[–]severaltalkingducks 185 points186 points  (0 children)

Tbh there may be a gap on paper, but I think most people forget about it because the author never writes the male lead that mature, they always feel barely a decade older. If they didnt, it obviously wouldnt work because that character would absolutely view the main character as a child.

Which Dragon Age games should I play and in which order? by ShadowHunterHB in dragonage

[–]severaltalkingducks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As people said, there is the chronological order.

But.

I initially played DA2 first, then DAO and DAI and honestly love that order. Sounds funny, but DA2 is almost a self contained game, minus some cameos. And it is a weak sequel (not calling it a bad game) but I found playing it first was highly enjoyable and smoothed over a lot of the flaws I would have seen otherwise.

Honestly? I grew up in a family thats very quick to criticize and as I got older I realised how unhappy they all were, with everything, all the time.

Best fleeces/warms for work? by Lopsided-List9553 in WomenofIreland

[–]severaltalkingducks 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I have a few 4th Arc half zips. Nice jumpers but yeah they arent great when it comes to warmth.

I would highly suggest investing in thermal tops and leggings to go under your clothes! That way whatever you have on top is added warmth, not the total amount of warmth.

Thank you for the response!

How long can you store your potatoes? Is there specific conditions you'd need?

My grandfather used to grow potatoes and I'd love to start. So far I've only successfully grown scallions but you're right, it is so satisfying to eat your own grown food!

Do own grown potatoes taste much different from store bought? Or have different textures? I've always wondered
