My favorite thing about Firefly is that every line feels like a Tumblr incorrect quotes post, but it's just the actual line 🤣

No one is ever born a middle child (with the exception of triplets)

There's always a metamorphosis of sorts that occurs to turn a perfectly normal youngest child into the middle child

Can someone help me figure out why DBH won't play on my PC

I have a Windows 11 with 8 GB of RAM. I knew when I got it that it wasn't a "gaming" PC, but I didn't really play many games, so it didn't matter. It's worked just fine to play some of the other games I have (Undertale, Spiritfarer, Little Nightmares), but when I tried to play the DBH demo, it gave me this error. When I tried to play anyway, it crashed after about 10 minutes. Now, that was just the demo, but I got the game anyway because it was 90% off, but I'm worried about trying to run it on my PC. Can anyone tell me what's going on and if there's any way I can fix it?

Edit: Thank you all for the answers, especially those who explained it to me instead of just saying "nope, not good enough". I'm a pretty lowkey gamer, and historically have really only played games that were free or on sale for super cheap, so I don't really know much about the ins and outs of what's needed for more serious gaming. When DBH went on sale for $4, I knew I had to get it, even if I can't play it just yet. I'll look into upgrading my PC or maybe getting a console to play it on in the future.

[Hated] "There's something about him I don't trust", "You're just jealous"

  1. Sokka and Jet (ATLA 1x10, Jet) - While Sokka is suspicious of Jet, Aang and Katara are both enamored by him. When Sokka expresses his suspicions, even stating that he watched Jet threaten an old man, Katara accuses him of being jealous of Jet for being a better warrior and leader
  2. Joe Cartwright and Sam Kirby (Bonanza 2x01, The Showdown) - Sam Kirby, a bank robber hiding from the law, shows up at the Ponderosa and breaks a horse that Joe had just failed to. Later, when Joe starts to become suspicious of Sam, his suspicions are blown off by his brothers as jealousy because Sam was able to break the horse that Joe couldn't
  3. Ross and Ben Stiller (Friends 3x22, The One with the Screamer) - Ross and Rachel have broken up, and Rachel has started dating Tommy. When Ross sees some concerning behavior in Tommy, no one will listen, thinking he's just being jealous of Rachel until the rest of them finally see the same behavior that Ross saw

EDIT: IT'S PART 12, NOT PART 1, I FORGOT TO ADD THE 2

I'm not usually a fan of the characterization of Harley Quinn that ignores all the bad she did and pretends like it was all just the Joker, but given the genre and aesthetic of WFA, I'm willing to accept it from these comics, and I think they do it pretty well all things considered

A formerly powerful character has to cope with the loss of their power

Can be temporary or permanent

  1. The Madrigal family (Encanto) - Because of a rift in the family, the families "miracle" that gave them their powers (along with their house) is destroyed. Luisa especially experiences her powers slowly start to fail before the miracle gives out completely
  2. Castiel (Supernatural) - An angel who loses his powers multiple times, but the first time is the most impactful as he struggles to find his place in the fight without the angelic powers he's always relied on
  3. Magnus (Shadowhunters) - In order to save his boyfriend's parabatai (someone he shares a soul bond with), Magnus makes a deal with his demonic father to save the parabatai in exchange for giving up his magic. For the next several episodes, Magnus spirals into depression and drinking as he tries to cope with losing such a vital part of himself, leading to him taking extreme and dangerous measures to try to get his power back
  4. Hercules (Hercules) - Hercules makes a deal with Hades to give up his strength for 1 day to save Meg's life. Hades plans to use that day to conquer Olympus, but Hercules ruins his plans by fighting back anyway, even weak and powerless

ITAW for "moderately good at"

I'm trying to add my ability to use MS Word, Excel, and PowerPoint to my resume, but I don't want to oversell myself by claiming to be "practiced" or "skilled" or "experienced" in them, because I only know how to use them, but I haven't had much of a chance to actually get practical experience. What's a good word I can use that sounds good to convey that I am able to use these programs effectively?

Tiny, innocent looking creatures are actually vicious pack hunters

  1. The Swarmers (The Forbidden Library - Django Wexler) - These creatures look innocent and fragile, but are actually carnivores who can jump several times their own height to attack with their razor sharp bills and claws. For defense, they have rubbery skin and malleable bones, rendering any sort of attack by either a blunt or sharp object practically useless
  2. The tiny dinos (Jurassic Park: The Lost World)
  3. This one's just for funsies (The artist's socials are in the comic)

[OC] My mom gave me this note in high school, and I still have it almost 10 years later

I've kept it all this time as a reminder, but not of a reminder that she's proud of me (she tells me that often enough I don't need one).

I have a lot of anxiety, enough so that I'd be willing to say that I think I probably have some kind of anxiety disorder, though I've never been diagnosed. Years of therapy have helped to manage it, but when I was in high school, it felt like I was barely treading water to keep from drowning most of the time.

In my high school, I had a class that culminated in us doing mock job interviews, but we hadn't been warned ahead of time, so I had a week to prepare everything from scratch, which my anxiety was not happy about. My mom knew how stressed and borderline terrified I was for this. That day in school, I went into the bathroom and thought long and hard about pretending to be sick to get out of doing the mock interview. I was so scared, I was shaking and queasy, but I wasn't really sick and it would've been a lie to pretend. I don't know what helped me make the decision, but I decided to go through with the mock interview, and it really really sucked, but I got it done. After school, I came home to find this note on my bed, surrounded by all of my favorite snacks (orange Fanta, pringles, ding-dongs, cookies, iced coffee, and even chips and a jar of queso, the works). I just started crying because I loved my mom so much, and I knew just how close I had come to calling it quits and lying to get out of something because I was scared, which would've made her amazing gesture be for nothing.

Almost 10 years later and I never ended up telling her how close I came to doing something that she wouldn't have been proud of (at first I was too ashamed, and then later it didn't really matter), but her birthday and Mother's Day passing recently made me want to share this story, with both her and anyone else who needs to hear it. Don't let fear stop you from learning and growing, from branching out and trying new things, from taking a leap of faith to tell your crush you love them or trying for that dream job you don't think you're worthy of. Succeed or fail, there's someone out there who's just proud that you tried at all. Go find that person in your life and give them a big hug from me, just like I plan to give my mama
