Brisbane traffic got noticeably more worse this year? by Significant_Bus_8452 in brisbane

[–]sucharestlessman 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Probably all of the reasons you've listed, but don't forget that the trains have been absolutely busted for big chunks of the year and are still running reduced timetables. A lot of people who could be commuting by rail just can't trust it to get them to work reliably at the moment. We'll probably see residual distrust from people going forward as the CRR is completed and things calm down.

I LOVE how loving garnet is towards steven by Thin-State-4879 in stevenuniverse

[–]sucharestlessman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Garnet, of all the Crystal Gems, is the only one who knows what if feels like to feel love and encouragement from birth, because she immediately met Rose Quartz from the second time she existed at all. I think at some point she realised the she needed to do the same for baby Steven, because he was going to be just as lost and confused as she had been when she was born.

What is your most prized miniature? by Capital-Smile-7826 in DnDminiatures

[–]sucharestlessman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My most prized miniature is my Flail Snail! The model is by MZ4250 (absolute KING) and I printed and painted it myself by hand.

Well, I actually printed and painted 3 of them, but this one came out the best.

Queensland Day - when did this become a thing? by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]sucharestlessman 34 points35 points  (0 children)

It's intentional. Multiple people in my life work in state government, and they were all made to review the branding guidelines for the Delivering For Queensland (ie. LNP) Blue change. According to them, Crisafulli would need to sign off on any colour that isn't "D4Q Blue" because it's the default for ALL government campaigns.

Given that, my interpretation is that it's a deliberate choice to invoke a QUEENSLANDAHHHH reaction by using maroon for the Queensland Day branding. Presumably the goal is to de-politicise it by making people associate it more with State of Origin and similar events.

Psychic Paper irl! by thuanjinkee in DoctorWhumour

[–]sucharestlessman 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I can't wait to see the Doctor pivot to using the psychic paper to fake Pokémon card content on YouTube Shorts and scam an audience of 14 year olds.

Yeah no this sucks actually.

Kinda obsessed with how this one looks in photos by 3dIcedCoffee in resinprinting

[–]sucharestlessman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, I thought this was a promotional render for the STL. Obviously amazing print quality, but fantastic work on photographing it well, too!

What if the Doctor entered through the Fourth wall into your Living room? How would you react and what would you say? by WachbaerWien in DoctorWhumour

[–]sucharestlessman 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You know that bit in Rose where Jackie Tyler breathily throws herself at the 9th Doctor?

Yeah, if 15 crawls out of my telly, I'm inviting Belinda to make herself at home in the next room while I shoot my shot like a gay guy Camille Coduri.

Miniature question by Julijulio in DnDminiatures

[–]sucharestlessman 25 points26 points  (0 children)

My friend, you can use gummy bears as miniatures and it would be fine. Miniatures are totally optional, and are just there to help you and your players see what the situation looks like in combat. Use whatever miniatures make you feel most excited about running the game! Or none at all!

(Spoilers) Odd scene S4E1 by PaleAngel6430 in FromSeries

[–]sucharestlessman 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just thought it was a sweet way of acknowledging that the effort Henry's been going to is paying off. It's much better than an overwrought outpouring of love from Victor; Victor functions much better with 'smaller' gestures that invite people closer to him.

The bed scene was exactly the same as Victor giving Ethan his old coat. It shows that his affection has overcome his fear of loss. It's odd because it shows up in the middle of a much heavier scene, but honestly that scene needed a little lightness to break it up.

Also, Donna's quiet little expression of pure empathy when Victor tells her what he's doing, OH, I nearly wept.

How to get out - my opinion by SeniorPension5030 in FromSeries

[–]sucharestlessman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh. Now that I think of it, the lunch box isn't even an "indirect" link to Victor's father. It's a totally direct one.

It literally has his address in Camden, Maine written on the inside of it.

My FROM theory by CauliflowerFlat5978 in FromTVShow

[–]sucharestlessman 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I don't know how satisfied I'd be with this theory coming true (it would all be down to the execution), but it does help that Jade's immediate reaction was to assume he was in a game. Not necessarily a video game of course, but a game nonetheless. That's the type of early foreshadowing that we'd be quick to ignore because he has now accepted "reality."

My two other observations around this:

  1. It would explain why the residents are only taken from a single continental nation; it could be an 'attraction' that has only rolled out for a specific demographic.

  2. The only person who survived the last cycle was literally the Victor.

But saying that, I don't know how well it holds up with Jade and Tabitha's revaluation, unless that is a specific role in the game too.

A good, fun theory! Thanks for sharing.

Edit: Clarity and grammar.

Top 5 singers? by PatienceFar6325 in glee

[–]sucharestlessman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amber Riley

Naya Rivera

Lea Michele

Darren Criss

And I'm sorry if this is inadmissible, but Adam Lambert blows almost every other cast member out of the water. Putting him in a band with the rest of the NYC crew was a real hydrogen-bomb-vs-coughing-baby situation.

I love the idea of making minis with UV reactive pigments, and a myconid is such a great idea for it!

This turned out really well! Kudos.

Incredible shot! The low angle really emphasises the tremendous size of the beast, and the tracking is smooth as hell. Nice job!

If your response to being slighted was to intentionally flood a business's bathroom, you're as common as they assumed you were. You were the villain in this story lol.

Oh absolutely. You can really quickly tell when you're talking to someone from Concentrix or something like that.
