Didn’t he cheat on his wife and get caught as well?

I spend less than an hour a day, usually. I end up scrolling past a lot of the posts because they don’t interest me and are more long form content, but I like to catch up on the memes and cats

I actually disagree on this one. The show made such bizarre choices and had unrealistic scenarios, it took me out of the story. I actually read the book because I was watching the series and was so confused by some of the story beats that I was convinced the book would explain the reasoning behind them.

Ended up just being mad at the series for not following the book more closely. The changes to the Prophet are just wild - taking a pedophile and making him a protagonist is just a poor choice, from my perspective… Even if you write out the pedophilia why you gotta make him have an army of kids?

One thing that always stuck out to me about the book is the introduction of certain editions. The author writes about himself researching the history of the country the story takes place in and describes it as real, saying he took his son to a museum with Inigo’s sword and everything.

I was Googling furiously when I read it because I was so confused. I was astounded that the place (and people) was “real”. It took a bit of research to find that the author just does this bit and hasn’t let it go since he wrote the book

I’m still so charmed that he tricked me. It made reading the book that much sillier, for me

If I had to come up with a reason for it out of my ass, I’d say it’s because being rejected from a tribe would be a death sentence for most, so those that remembered their mistakes were less likely to repeat them and be expelled.

“Do you think fighting can be part of a healthy relationship?”

My wife and I rarely fight, we’ve maybe had two or three in our entire relationship, and they weren’t yelling matches We just got upset and patched things up relatively quickly. I don’t think I could be with someone who thinks raising their voice at another person is okay, and surely not if they think it can be healthy. And hard “hell no” to any violence.

So, this is a weedout question

He is the Drake from 2000’s Nickelodeon as long as you mean the show Degrassi

Winter is the same, although it can be noticeably more difficult to recover if your pattern gets disrupted for any reason. So for that I use a light that simulates sunrise

Between 9 and 10pm most nights

No one seems to have said it yet, but consistency. Waking up at the same time every day including weekends. Eventually, you just wake up early naturally. I get up at 5:30 am every day on the dot with zero alarm just because it’s when I wake up. And I’m never groggy, because I’ve adapted to it. It’s not early anymore it’s just when I wake up

I think the second half to this is that it can’t be a chore. You have to want to wake up. If you wake up and think about how much you hate being awake it will be all the harder

Unciv is a Civ 5 remake with simplified graphics. Its a lot of fun but the AI is brutal.

Cecily Smith by Will Connolly is just some bonus track from a musical I’ve never seen or heard but every time I hear it I almost weep.

I love my wife very much and the core concept of “life isn’t about the things that we do it’s who we are doing them with” is a core ethos to my life, so the song is personally very relatable.

I like Pitch Meeting because he’s excellent at pointing out plot holes, of which there are many, and isn’t quite so nitpicky as Cinema Sins

Depends on the movie. I like to watch them for movies I know I will never see and have no desire to see, and more focus on non-mainstream or foreign films. I prefer other mediums to movies so I probably watch fewer than 20 movies a year.

For example, I watched one about a Japanese movie where cockroach humanoids now inhabit Mars and they have to send humans with the ability to transform into other bugs to retrieve some data. An absolutely outrageous movie that I would otherwise never know existed and would never see willingly. So instead I watched a twenty minute summary of the movie while doing something else

Depends a lot on the environment when they were young, I wager. Could also just be nature more than nurture and some animals are just more food motivated than others from birth

That gen 1 of Pokemon didn’t have compound types (i.e. Pokemon with two types). In reality they did

I did something similar with Beehaw, but found that Lemmy was making my Nas so much louder because of all the data it was writing to disk. So I decided to join programming.dev instead. Some day I want to host my own again but it’s on hold for now
