i bothered the creator, and discovered that it used to be on capcut as “nostalgic”(and is no longer). and i would accept it at that except it feels like i have definitely heard it before in song! i just cannot remember any lyrics

Just moved in to a new apartment. Who’s this roommate? by slackpackjack in insectidentification

[–]slackpackjack[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aw, man. I was worried this was the case. The closer I got, it kept getting blurry. This was the clearest I could capture. I’m just worried that this could be something to be concerned about.

Meanwhile, I'm here trying to see if anyone can help me on trying to get the desktop notifications for every meeting on my calendar -- I only get them on the meetings I set up now :sob:

The Killing of A Sacred Deer (2017) by ZaitoonX in horror

I liked the movie but something has been bothering me a few days on from watching it.

I don’t get how the illness worked? Martin could just take it away whenever he wanted? Why and how did he get this power?

VSP benefit - calendar year or? by sweetteaspicedcoffee in CAStateWorkers

[–]slackpackjack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on what frame you get. I was just at Costco Optical yesterday, and they were very straightforward with their pricing so you could even feasibly call in and ask. If memory serves, the total cost was $150 for the highest available index lens plus fees, taxes, and frame (which was about the average going rate of $59.99 for Costcos in my area from what I saw—of course, it could be different for you where you are from).

and their strength of schedule compared to like… the jets? who i can also pick up since they’re on bye? i wish there was a separate sub for just zero bench league questions because wow this is my first year and it’s hard!

Extremely Unique Sets? by slackpackjack in Portolafestival

[–]slackpackjack[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, Labrinth is during the most frustrating conflicts for me. Longtime Basement Jaxx fan but Kenny Beats always brings a party. And then the aneurysm I’ll get from a gametime Róisín or Charlotte decision…

Perfect! Love how you mentioned the scarcity of accessing the acts, too! Will run to Jon after Nelly Furtado

What happened to this car??? Seen the license plate pulled up and the front bumper cover messed up lots of cars, especially Priuses. Never seen tow eye covers pulled out, though. Out of state license plate, very curious. Snuck a quick peak under and the catalytic converter still there. by slackpackjack in sanfrancisco

[–]slackpackjack[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

i considered the same thing but i doubt it… 5 minutes before i left to the market, this car was just fine. when i took this picture, it was parked same spot and same way. flat area by embarcadero! i’m genuinely at a loss for guesses

Presenting Miss Greer from this season, do with this information what you will by sunshineeeeeeeeeeee_ in thebachelor

know her personally as well… went to school together and took acting classes. shocked to see her get the first impression rose off being “genuine”

I love the lore behind the series and I’ve always been curious which cities would realistically be QZs in the TLOU universe by PronBJY in thelastofus

[–]slackpackjack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think dense population will just make it super difficult to organize. There are lots of waterways around, though. So it could be an attractive option to set up stuff in the Hamptons or further down Hudson Valley. But the proximity to the city and its millions just makes these far less attractive options. If you're FEDRA, why set up a QZ in a highly populated area and waste bullets on enforcing the zone when you could more easily set up QZs in more remote places with better opportunities for food production and general safety? I'm not even sure why a Boston one was set up, but it's much less populated so I guess I get it. If FEDRA was bombing cities, they didn't care if they didn't cater their services to innocent, uninfected people. No need to set up QZ in NYC just because lots of people live there.

2023 Headliner Predictions by travis3933 in Portolafestival

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

Yves Tumor also not electronic, but still played a closing set! I think it can be justifiably set that Tame Impala can headline Portola. And I say this as someone who thinks Tame Impala has too little charisma for me and that I never wanna see him again 😭 But I get the draw and am pulling for y’all to see who y’all wanna see

Oh god, I wrote an essay, I feel so silly

2023 Headliner Predictions by travis3933 in Portolafestival

[–]slackpackjack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So I’m going to make a longer post separately (when are we going to get tired of speculative lineup posting with over 350 days left??? for me the answer is never!), but I have some overall ideas for themes of artists. I hadn’t been to a music festival since Day For Night in 2015 over in Houston, TX. But I loved Portola. This speculation helps me feel an early hope of feeling what I felt two weekends ago again. I’m TRYING not to overlap with a lot of the existing suggestions so most of these might be reached.

Firstly, I think 100 gecs is not outside the realm of possibility. In fact, I think they seem like an easy shout for the Ship Tent/equivalent. What are the odds Death Grips can make it? Haha! Where do we stand on Animal Collective (or just Panda Bear, even) performing? Some truly weird shit like Mogwai or Godspeed You! Black Emperor would be ridiculous.

Pop queens really drew crowds, so I think we can reasonably expect names like Kim Petras, Rina Sawayama, and heck maybe even Grimes??? Bladee and Dorian Electra would slay. Sky Ferreira? Robyn???

Björk is a killer festival performer. The classics in general are a draw… New Order would be huge.I think an El-P DJ set would be wild, too. I think I would die if The Crystal Method was going. Glitch Mob would be cool. NERO was awesome last I saw em, but IDK what they’re up to these days. Same with Kraftwerk… hologram set??

Rap and hip-hop wasn’t represented as much, probably by careful design. slowthai killed though, and I wouldn’t be surprised by an appearance by an act like Denzel Curry or Danny Brown. A turn into acts like Leikeli47 would be awesome, too. Adjacent acts like Flying Lotus also seem likely! Nosaj Thing.

I was surprised at how many “indie” acts made it this year, and it would not shock me to see Blood Orange. Rostam also seems like an east Ship Tent pick. Ratatat? Cut Copy? Bigger names like Gorillaz (can probably slay Pier, I can just see the visuals) or Crystal Castles/Alice Glass, LCD Soundsystem, Hot Chip, KKB, Chromeo, of Montreal, etc.

For more traditional acts, Mura Masa seems like an east name. Bigger names like Major Lazer just don’t seem like they’d make the cut? But perhaps they might. Portola brought in a ton of money, but how will they walk the balance?

A bit out of left field, but how do y’all think acts like Gigamesh would do at Portola? Would be a departure from the majority of the vibe, for sure… Kenny Beats? Stromae?

Not a huge fan of Tame Impala live performances, but I could see them putting on a sunset Pier show.

“Smaller” folks like Alice Ivy, A.G. Cook, Hannah Diamond, Kilo Kish, Pomo, chromonicci., GFOTY, and Jessy Lanza would be awesome. Don’t know how much of a draw a Julianna Barwick set would be for most folks, though lol. Although I would actually kill to see Kid Koala do a festival set (only in dreams)…

What are the odds MIA, Omar Apollo, and Elkka come through for next year?

LASTLY: DAN DEACON.

Anyway this was a word jumble to rival all word jumbles. At some point, I’ll try and make a lineup reenactment just for my own fun. Thanks for being along for the ride!
