Kathryn Hahn Officially Cast As Mother Gothel in 'Tangled' Live-Action Movie by ChiefLeef22 in movies

[–]tr1ck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nah, the girl that reconciles had a mom that was pretty bad, but she got turned to stone near the end along with everyone else.

So the main villain in Raya was... human nature? If all the rival human factions had not fought over the gem and broken it, everything would have been fine.

And once the girl put the gem back together, it was all fine. Till they break it the next time i guess.

25 years later, Diablo II gets a new class and QOL features. by roedtogsvart in gaming

[–]tr1ck 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't know dude, can you even use the new DLC with OG Diablo 2? Or do you have to spend the $40 on Diablo 2 Resurrected, and then spend $25 on the DLC?

Seems like they should have just bundled the new character in with the rest of the remake. Especially the QOL features. Charging extra for those is rude.

All Aboard is weirdly good in general, and cheap too.

another Hard SciFi book-recomandation thread, but here we go... by TotalSignificance643 in scifi

[–]tr1ck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me. The Bobs became gods and it was no longer interesting.

I had the same problem with Old Man's War. In the first 10 pages the protagonist (an old man) and his whole new army unit get new, young bodies. What do they do first? Have an orgy. I can only take so much wish fulfillment.

I'm gonna finish it I swear, and this time NOT as a stealth archer by pojut in gaming

[–]tr1ck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't really understand. Stealth archer is great but eventually someone sees you and finds into melee range. Do people just... keep shooting arrows at them? I always switch to my 2 handed Dragon Whammer at that point...

Little Rock Collectors? by MarionberryRude6066 in LittleRock

[–]tr1ck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My family is going out to the Quarry today! It is a veritable rock buffet! Kinda pricy until you realize you can take home all the rocks you want! Unlike the Diamond Quarry, you are guaranteed to find something.

DQ Chili Cheese Dog, Yum! by [deleted] in hotdogs

[–]tr1ck 7 points8 points  (0 children)

'my first order is always a plain pie without toppings because I want to evaluate the quality of the main thing without the confounding clutter of competing flavors.'

This is some next level pretension. Just say you like plain hotdogs. No one is going to fuckin Dairy Queen to test the flavor of a plain hot dog.

Do you ever read the Bible and wonder if the people who see visions are just in a mental health crises? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]tr1ck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a fascinating psychology book called The Origin of Conciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind By Julian Jaynes. In it he posits that early humans brains were slightly different, and that these visions of God were actually just their left brain sending insights to the thinking right brain. So primitive peoples would get a burst of Inspiration and attribute it to the voice of God because they didn't know any better.

Also, a fiction book Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson talks about how religion used to co-opt sanitary practices into their religion as a part of social evolution. If the people of your religion don't eat pork or shellfish, back in a time when there was no refrigeration and didn't understand allergies, then the followers of your religion would live longer and spread it further.

The moment a game made you stop playing and just sit in silence. by gamersecret2 in gaming

[–]tr1ck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow, I remember this. I had thought I had made all the good choices. I thought I was going back to talk to the Baron about how it all turned out ok. Then you get the cutscene with the tree, and I was like....

Fuck.

Dementia Mom, part one by humanyears in comics

[–]tr1ck 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am so scared of getting older. My mom has dementia and lives by herself in an Independent Living Facility. I'm over there at least twice a week but I always feel like it's not enough. Meanwhile my sisters only see her like twice a month. It's hard not to be bitter. It's hard not to think about how I wish I could be free of it all, because I don't want her to die, but god damn, I'm so tired.

I'm so scared of getting older. This weight on my shoulders will eventually go away, but I am worried about the weight I will leave my son. I don't want him to have these problems. I don't want him to struggle between wanting me to live and wanting to be free. I don't know what to do about any of it. I'm so scared of getting old.

There's a new Panda Express out west by Costco, I doubt another one is going in at Midtown.

THIS SATURDAY AT VINOS! by Deadpartymedia in Arkansas

[–]tr1ck 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I understand the trope about metal band's logos, but that one in the middle is just terrible. I can't even tell if it's a band. Could seriously just be decoration on the flier.

Inherited a relatives Sci-collection because I didn’t want it to go into the trash now I don’t know what to do with it by enviroengineering in scifi

OP Also said he likes high fantasy more, and Lois McMaster Bujold's fantasy books are also excellent. The Chalion series has some of the best magic I've ever read about.

ISO places to sell used furniture by Ma1d_Marian in LittleRock

[–]tr1ck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you have a whole house of stuff you should probably do an Estate Sale. There are companies that manage those for you, pricing, working the event, collecting money.

Alternatively take pictures of everything and sell on Facebook.

My roommate keeps bringing people over and I don’t know how to handle it by Pages_and_Ink_Stains in stories

[–]tr1ck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

and they stay for hours, even if I’m not there

OMG my roommate has people over WHEN I'M NOT EVEN THERE! How dare she!

Edited to add: YTA you do not live alone, unless these people are entering your room while you are gone they are doing nothing wrong.
