  I will only stay in this one area where this specific type of enemy spawns to get the most out of this resistance. I don’t want to see the rest of the game.

  And you find the plate mail with 80% fire resistance not at the end of the water dungeon, but at the end of the fire dungeon. You will never see another fire elemental after you exit here. Fire damage will be completely irrelevant, even in the final boss fight where Satan himself shows up and only uses dark attacks.

  I watched it a second time and it was a very different experience. On my first watch, the ending surprised me and I thought it was a weird twist. On the second watch, I had to stop watching because it was so obvious. All the signals were there. I’d clearly misinterpreted them the first time.

  Insane list. Look at the IMDB Top 250 filtered by “after 2000” and you’ll notice the obvious omissions:

  • Avatar: The Last Airbender at number 6
  • Attack on Titan at number 16
  • Firefly at number 39
  • Taskmaster at number 43

  These are just a couple examples in different categories. Anime fans immediately noticed that no anime made the list at all. Western animation fans might have seen that Bojack Horseman made the list, but Avatar didn’t (or if the editor filtered for “adult animation”, Rick and Morty (#22) didn’t). There’s really no excuse for these, there is no consistent rule that would exclude any of these shows. NYT readers must live in the dark timeline where fun is outlawed and Taskmaster was cancelled after one series.

  Unironically. I’m sure Parks&Rec was a fun show, but did it fill convention centers around the world with hundreds of thousands fans? Did it kickstart the careers of animators, illustrators and musicians?

  There’s a couple more “children’s cartoons” that I’d put in the top 100 over some high-popularity-but-low-cultural-impact shows from this list. I think if you look at the current animation industry, all of them will name the same shows that inspired them as children and still influence their work to this day: Avatar: the Last Airbender (2005), Gravity Falls (2012), Adventure Time (2010), etc.

  A church service is the unit of church. Most of them will occur on Sundays, but there could be multiple spread over the day. Check your local church schedule and sneak in at the end of the service.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This drip coffee is now $5 dollars, up from $2.50 3 years ago⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the stuff they serve for free after every church service. Just bring a thermos and ask them to fill 'er up.

  Brendan “Fatso” Fraser was such a terrible actor in The Whale, you could really tell he had one hand in a KFC bucket at all times. I’d much rather watch my favorite actor Dwayne “The Rock-Solid” Johnson muscle the emotions off the screen with his giant Johnson. Muscle is discipline and discipline is good acting, it is known.

  I don’t think the shut-in believes it’s normal or okay to be a shut-in. It’s a feeling of complete failure to fit in and isolating as a result. The longer the shut-in is ostracized (or keeping themself ostracized), the stronger the feeling becomes that they do not fit in, they will never fit in, if there was ever an opportunity to fit in they surely missed it now. Being a 38 year old shut-in is actually very believable to me,it isn’t exactly a situation that challenges your beliefs or motivates you to change.

  Sure, it’s harsh to put this all on enabling parents, but you also don’t get to 38 without enabling. You don’t leave the “last resort” on the table for 10-15 years. The very long list should be exhausted within 2 years and one of the options should be a therapist specialized in shut-ins. Beyond that, you’ll just have to hope and pray that one day something clicks in that brain and they start taking charge of their own life.

  Most high school kids are already more influenced by their peers than their parents. Once you’re an adult actual parental influence is almost nil if the child wants it to be.

  You’re talking about kids who wouldn’t become shut-ins anyway. If you’re bullied in high school and drop out at 16, the only “peer” influence is the trauma. Not that I experienced anything like that ;_;

  I’d start with making them understand that independence is good for everyone involved. Then small steps towards independence, starting with a simple part-time job. The important part here is that they see more people than just their direct family, to show them the different ways people can function in society.

  If this works out, help them identify some personal goals. The hard part of being a shut-in is that you have no agency over your life, so you give up on all your goals. Once you have a little agency, you can start finding goals again. Simple ones at first: saving up some emergency funds, getting a driver’s license, making a weekend trip to get out of the house for a couple nights.

  Also assuming they are classic shut-ins and not caretaker-type shut-ins: learning how to take care of the household, cooking, developing skills around the house. It’s low barrier to entry, they are already in the house after all.

  I cried when the clown beckoned for the student clown to come closer, expertly keeping the pie hidden behind his back. I tore my clothes and threw ash over my head when the student clown crafted a second pie unbeknownst to the head clown. Woe humanity, will this cycle of violence never end?

  It’s a general approach to names with numbers at the end, the list is full of those. I’m almost more interested in the more specific patterns like name(69)+, because was there an alt name6969 he wanted to block but an unrelated name67 he wanted to avoid?

  A movie doesn’t have to be a flawless masterpiece to be 100%. Getting certified fresh on RT is honestly more a balancing act of meeting expectations, but also not being so predictable that it becomes bland.
