Aphantasia-Check: What type of visualization fits you? - Discussion and Poll OT
There was some discussion about this topic recently in another thread, but it was somewhat derailing there, so I decided to make this thread dedicated to it. It's a topic that won't let go of my thoughts, so let's go: Aphantasia.
The quick explanation for "what is Aphantasia?" is one's lack of...
What's your favorite cold weather gear?
It's getting cold where I live. For a long time, I was a dumbass about keeping warm. I didn't know how to layer. But I got better with it and am rarely cold outside. Even when it's crazy cold. Wind is a bitch, tho, like always.
For me, the big game changer was the Uniqlo Heattech stuff. I...
Characters who have been ruined/held back by nostalgia
https://www.resetera.com/threads/1061646#reseteraCharacters who have been ruined/held back by nostalgia
So what are good/prominet examples of a character who is prevented from truly growing/is ruined by nostalgia. I think a big example for me is Tim Drake, the 3rd Robin (and best)
Was the Robin for most of the 90's and 2000's and really redefined the role by making Robin a solo competent hero...
Eras New Years Resolution
Next year, can we all just be nicer to each other? This board, I mean. So many arguments eventually become people taking pot shots at each other, and that just isn't cool. One can argue a point without resorting to personal attacks. One can criticise and not automatically hate the subject of...
Any good Lovecraft continuators ?
I finished reading the Mythos and the Dreamlands cycles some years ago and, being really into weird tales, I must admit I have often experienced some nostalgia for it in recent months.
So yeah, thread title says pretty much all. I thought it was as good a question as any, I know of some of the...

That's uh... pretty fucking bad
We have enough issues with people trusting the news, this is gonna make things way worse. Much easier to spread lies if you have people believing in it already.

Anyone else get cold feetsies?
The heater is blasting, I'm bundled up, everything is to the point of being overheated EXCEPT my feet! They're still frozen! I've often wondered if this is a circulation thing, but these little dudes are always the coldest part of my body to the point that it can be really uncomfortable...

https://www.resetera.com/threads/1061589#reseteraWhat is the dumbest/immature/childish scene in a show or movie that gets a laugh out of you no matter how many times you see it?
The "Biggus Dickus" scene from Monty Python's "Life of Brian" popped up in my recommended on YouTube again because I have been binging comedy scenes and skits this past week (rough week) and despite me knowing the scene basically word for word at this point it still gets a giggle at the very...
