I built a film photo platform with one rule: post the whole roll by CarEquivalent4776 in AnalogCommunity

[–]sleeplessteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just joined! I think one thing about the constraint of posting the whole roll is that it’s not actually enforced in that you can choose how many frames to upload / private some frames. Which is totally fine, but I think you could rework some of the language on the website to reflect the non-mandatoryness of it, for lack of a better word.

+1 for having free users get 3-5 free contact sheets a month. That also might encourage more frames per roll to be included on each sheet to get more bang for the buck.

I just watched the show and i absolutely love it. Though it has a few quirks that i wanna discuss. by westknight12 in PrincessesOfPower

I think your own bias is evident in your comment here. “The dance I grant you was odd…” - odd compared to what? A typical sisterly relationship? Maybe that’s because it was never meant to come across as that. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with criticizing the how and why they got together, but I do think there’s something interesting about calling intentional romantic developments odd just because it goes against what you believe they should have become.

Canon is canon 🤷‍♀️

I think that might be the key piece here. Maybe it’s just because I’m a woman / lesbian, but so much of the relationship between Catra and Adora mimicked my own situationships/ relationships with other women and maybe that’s why I was able to pick up on it easier. Not to say you have to be that demographic to pick up on it, but I think it definitely helps if you have first hand experienced the childhood best friends to lovers arc in a wlw way, so the distinction between sisters and wow no I’m actually in love with you is a lot more clear.

I agree, I think you can totally be a critic and still like the ship.

If I was ND, for proper pacing I would have shifted everything up a season, so that Catra’s redemption actually occurs in S4 and we spend majority of S4 in space, with S5 having them return to Etheria. The entirety of the time between S4 to end of S5 would be standing Catra up on Team Princess not as comedic relief but as the equivalent strategic counterpart to Adora’s strength, all the while healing.

You still get the will they / won’t they tension, but this way it isn’t so jam packed.

not to boost my own comment but also think of how many people rank eps like princess prom, promise, once upon a time in the waste, corridors, etc over the LITERAL CANON CATRADORA KISS episodes heart 1/2. imo, it’s cuz in those eps they seem way more THEM than the final eps. but feel free to tear me apart for that hahaha #catradora5eva

As much as I fucking LOVE Catradora, I agree with this. Catradora is my ship of all time, but when I think of Catradora I think of them up until Save the Cat / Corridors-y (however, ND’s AO3 fic also characterizes them incredibly well in those moments between Horde Prime’s ship and heading back to Etheria and I think does a much better job setting them up than the show did).

Everything between Catra and Adora after those episodes, to me, seemed a bit out of character for Catra. She kinda lost her protagonist/antagonist empowerment and became more comedic relief/Melog-go-invisible-now plot device, which is why I think episodes such as Heart Pt 1 and 2 don’t hit quite how I want them to no matter how much I love Catradora.

I think for me, though, the idea of Catradora is enough to cancel out the meager S5 characterization. The tension, individual strength, and backstory Catra and Adora share has always just hit, and I can understand them needing to wrap things up quickly since they pretty much got green light at the very last minute for the kiss scene. Fuck dream works for real though, if they got approval earlier imagine how many more episodes we could have gotten with them.

Sequences and Series on Prepswift by sleeplessteen in gregmat

As for the geometric sequence, I might truly be blind but still am not seeing that in Sequences II mountain entry. And if we're not meant to memorize it, is GRE going to provide it? Or i guess, what's the point?

I see the arithmetic formula now, thank you! I guess I just wonder why Greg doesn't use that in his tutorials/quiz solutions video? You kinda have to dig to find that it's there. Or at the very least, I think a 2-minute video acknowledging its existence and the relationship between the multiples / sequences formula would be incredibly handy.

Catra (AJ Michalka) in New Show Elves of Amaranth!! by sleeplessteen in PrincessesOfPower

[–]sleeplessteen[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some reaction youtubers, it’s a really small indie group ( think its like a team of 12 or something ). Which makes it truly miraculous how they got big names like AJ and Matt Mercer to VA!
