u/A_Shattered_Day

So, I loved this show as a kid even though I could still tell the ending was a real stinker. I decided to rewatch it now that it is on Netflix. One thing that has been bothering me in the first season tho is that like, Mason your wife died not that long ago right? Like, it had only been six months since the invasion. Its been months since you found your wife's dead body in the street tom. Why are you flirting with this woman?

Idk, maybe he hated his wife but like, this is really weird. I feel like tom should be more hung up over the dead mother of his three children than he is. Its a minor point and I remember she comes back somehow but like, this feels so bizarre. Did they feel obligated to set the male lead and the obligatory woman character up?

First off, I read a translation so maybe things are different in the original text. Second off, this is maybe my favorite book ever, despite how negative some impressions may seem. I am going to reread this soon.

I hated Liu Bei because it felt like he was the authors favorite and so he got so much attention and praise. He's the definition of a Mary Sue. He does almost nothing impactful, is the focal character of the story and if a character dislikes him you know they are fundamentally evil. Even other characters the author loves so much are better. Kongming spends like 20 chapters exploring Yunnan/Vietnam, which has so little relevance to what is happening in China, and that is still better because at least he is doing something cool. The author just tells us Xuande is cool and we should like him. Maybe Im biased because I like Cao Cao the most but it got frustrating to read Xuande and I was glad when he died because at least the story can do something other than focus on him.

Does he come across better in the original chinese text? Do chinese people like his character as presented in the text?

I made tomato, egg and noodle soup today for my partner (I do not like the idea of tomato and egg together) and she enjoyed it, but felt it needed something extra.

I made it by rendering down diced plum tomatoes with tomato paste, salt and red bell pepper, which I then added garlic to towards the end. Then, I uses water for the soup since I had no stock. I added a ramen seasoning packet (chicken) and let the soup at a hard boil for a few minutes to infuse the flavors. I then added the ramen noodles to cook while I fried some hard scrambled eggs on the side which I left in large pieces. After the ramen noodles were done, I mixed the eggs in and then poured it all into a bowl.

What should I do to jazz it up? She suggested thyme or oregano which, sure that would work in a tomato soup but what would be the Chinese suggestion?

Instead of gender, let's just call it noun class a and noun class b.

I keep getting this sub in my feed where it is asking if this one pokemon can beat usm ad infinitum. Why is that the entire sub?

So, I want to make all the food in the game IRL, using the recipes given as a guide. I only vaguely know some of the recipes, anybody know the recipes off their heads?

Also, what is paste?

So, I am going to do a Morrowind run where I complete House Telvanni and the Morrowind Mages guild questlines without casting a single spell, because it isnt necessary for those factions (outside of I believe a single quest that may be circumnavigated).

I just have two questions. The first is which race should I pick; Argonian or Nord? The character is obviously gonna be named Can't-Spell, but I dunno which is funny, an Argonian lady stabbing Gothren on the face to become Head of House Telvanni or a nord barbarian smashing Trebonius' skull in. As an Argonian, I would focus Spear and as a nord, Ax (Nord's full name would be Hroaki Can't-Spell). I think Nord may be easier with the shock and frost resistance.

The second question is, does using enchanted items count as real magic? An enchanted item is necessary for one quest, but it is also the only way I can get experience without buying training. There are two layers to this question; is it permissible to use enchanted items in combat and/or is it permissible to use enchanted items exclusively to meet the level requirements to advance? As in, spamming every enchanted items I can get dry and waiting for it to recharge.

Skyrim honestly did the dwemer better. Playing through morrowind the first time, the ruins were just deeply unsettling with their atmospheric sounds that make it seem like there's somebody right behind you. It was terrifying to explore them. It was the same thing with Skyrim, a vast city slowly humming along for millenia as ancient horrors stalk its halls. I cried once because I got lost in Nchuand Zel.

Now that I have played Skyrim and morrowind out entirely, Im still scared to go into skyrim's ruins because there are a billion falmer waiting to molest me. There is nothing to fear in morrowinds dwemer ruins. Their ruins are hallways that end in either a bedroom, a room with a big spinny thing, lava room, a room with shelves containing lore books and scarab plans, and finally, the room with the big spinny thing.

Skyrim's ruins may have also lost the mystique, but they still convey the might and majesty of the dwemer. You really feel like they were a race of master engineers and architects. In Morrowind, if you turn off the sound, you feel like you are going into your basement to get the artifical god schematics you tucked away with your Christmas decorations.

Edit: I need to make this TruStuhlly, I want to be gangbanged by an entire stronghold of orcs.

>!Why are half of all ladies career criminals? Like, there are no men currently involved in organized crime yet we have two lady mob bosses. And of the women who are not career criminals, two are in law enforcement, two are vigilantes, one is a war criminal, one is a circus freak, one is a serial killer, one aspires to be a serial killer, one talks to dead people and one is extremely annoying. What did gabe mean by this?!<

Jk, this is a shitpost. I just think it is a funny observation.
