@Herja Same. Up voting in solidarity, not because I like it.

@SixRegrets said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.: everything happens so much I need that on a shirt.

@GreenFlashlight said in RL things I love: I don't know what this song is about (I have guesses) but I am fucking bawling. The song is at a point in the musical after Hamilton's son, Philip, is shot in a duel, and he elects to move himself and his family away the center of New York City. That occurs after Hamilton ruins his entire political career by very publicly admitting to an affair with Maria Reynolds. These would be spoilers if, y'know, it wasn't part of the man's personal history. This is at the conclusion of the musical, when you finally learn who's telling the story and who the true hero is.

@Wretched said in Good TV: Okay but.. Raised by Wolves tho... Ok, but the fight scene in ep7.

@Ghost said in General Video Game Thread: FF: Road Trip got me to tear up at the end. The end story was wonderful. Well, it was a really pretty game.

@Kestrel I understand this altogether too well, unfortunately. I mean, it's good I got away from abuse, but then I ...stopped writing all the time.

@sockmonkey today was my friday!

@GreenFlashlight said in Good or New Movies Review: Real talk, I kinda want them to just give the role to Tyler Hoechin. He's killing it on the CW. Real talk, I wanted Grant Gustin to play the Flash in the movies. Of course that was during the first couple of seasons but still - it'd have been fun!

@hedgehog Rose McDowall - Cut With the Cake Knife Psychedelic Furs/Brecht/Weill - Mack the Knife

Scenes that tear out your heart and put it back in again, resulting in an excellent mess to try and clear up the day after. I think that's also the first time that particular character has ever espoused what he believes to be his true place in the world so completely.

@Tinuviel It's funny because it's true.

@Jeshin Hey. I don't know if this got lost in the shuffle (shuffle, noise, vitriol), but I never minded the idea of anyone saying, "Hey, this thing is awesome and we want to feature it." I think it's a great community-building idea, and I hope you keep doing it. Even if people disagree, they will know what you think is good. The big explosion over ideas was because of the prerequisites. That is all.

@mietze said in Diversity Representation in MU*ing: My youngest child came home with a pilgrims and Indians themes project in kindergarten this year school year in WA state. Which was horrifying to me on many levels. Public school instruction in the US is extremely fractured, not only state by state but district by district and school by school. (My older kids' elementary school would have NEVER done that, and also at the time was the main site for a native american students and families group for the district, and those parents very generously shared resources with the teachers, students, and other families about PacNW history and current culture!!) There is such a strange deviation in how we teach people on a state-by-state basis. I spent my pre-teen through high school period on Maui, wherein we did explicitly discuss American colonialism and the annexation's effects on the modern day. That said, we absolutely did not discuss anything in lengthy detail that solely affected the mainland. This made it surprisingly frank, like in US history the teacher said "The Civil War was about slavery," and that was that. When I was in early elementary school, I lived in Georgia in which the textbook used was like "here are the reasons why states' rights are important..." so you can imagine how much unlearning happened in middle & high school there.

ARK: Survival Evolved is free on Epic until the 18th.

I'm growing exhausted and tired at work where it feels like no amount of prep that I do the day before prepares me for the next day because that slack I created for myself just gets sucked up taking care of things in other places of the building.

@Cupcake said in The 100: The Mush: @Booriley Was this meant for the Apology thread? The apology thread has a 50% chance of just turning into a shooting gallery for bitter cunts.

@Bobotron said in The State of the Chronicles of Darkness: @tragedyjones Right. I skimmed that and honestly didn't think of Hunter or Mummy. :/ Sorry for forgetting someone's favorite game lines. I only know because it was pointed out on the onyx path forum, honestly.
