Riven , to Ask Lemmy in Who is a fictional character that is loved you find either overrated or you don't get the appeal ?

I rewatched the first one recently with my girlfriend and God is Edward a creep when seen through non teen girl eyes. Dudes a literal pedo creep but he's handsome and broken so it's ok.

For me it was Rose. She was an alright companion but far from the best and it annoyed me how much importance she had to everything with all her storylines.

As much as I enjoy that franchise I agree with you. For years I kept hearing 'it's better in the books', I remember specifically people saying that about the organization that helps dobbie and his people. Fuggin, I read the books as an adult and it's barely expanded on it at all, they just have more scenes about the organization but it isn't ever truly relevant beyond explaining why Hermione does what she does as an adult.

It's a charming little story that matured with readers and got a decent adaptation that led it to explode. Lots of luck to get to where it's at.

I would love to see a wandering inn adaptation instead.

Yea but then you'll be supporting Walmart. So there's that.

Riven , to Ask Lemmy in What was your worst consensual sexual experience?
@Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I love that it was fun more than mortifying. I've been there and thanks to the type of person I am, imanaged to make it reassuring instead of morifying for my partner. It's a human reaction, perfectly normal.

How does one get into that line of work?

I usually dislike them as well which is why I suggested it for patch notes. Those might be the only popups I don't mind cause it let's me know of all the new cool stuff that the app has.

Riven , to Ask Lemmy in which one is the best anime in your opinion?
@Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I don't usually mind the low quality stuff but it irks me when the art is absolutely amazing and adds to the panels only to get butchered by cheapskate companies adapting it terribly. It's a tragedy for junji ito cause those ten hours of etching the shadows in any given page do actually matter to add to the horror and the feeling of wrongness. Only to be spit on by shit executives not giving a fuck and just having the animators use a fucking paint bucket to shadow.

Look at this image. The right side is a demon who you wouldn't wanna meet and the left is just a granny with bad ache.

The biggest tragedy of the anime vs the Manga is the art. Boichii is fucking world renowned for how he draws anatomy and it's a huge focal point in his works and they just missed the whole mark there. Reminds me of how they fucked up junji itos works too. If anyone is interested in actual good low budget animations check out komicant communicate, they do so much with so little that you don't realize it's lower budget.

Would it be possible for you to have a Lil pop up letting the people who use the app know? Something like, 'Hey, if there's anything you like or don't like about the app PLEASE let me know I'm listening and want to make it better.' maybe have it be at the top of any new download patchnotes.

Riven , to Ask Lemmy in What do you think about my idea to help renters buy their home?
@Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

It would actually be easier to just set massive taxes for anyone that owns more than 2 houses. I don't begrudge anyone who owns a house and a vacation house but fuck anyone who just owns rental properties, and if you can afford to buy a third house then you can afford to pay a ton more in taxes to keep it. The more houses you own the higher the taxes go, just make it untenable for people to own rental properties and the rest sorts itself out.

God if that isn't the truth. We changed from Thryv to rackspace and we went from zero spam to 30 a day and this is AFTER they block a bunch. Waste of my time every day having to go through them.

Riven , to World News in G7 agrees to loan Ukraine $50 billion from the interest on frozen Russian assets
@Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Ah so ukrains not meant to pay it back but it's gonna get paid back by the interest on the Russian money held in international banks. Thanks for the explanation and this is definitely a step up of what I thought it was.

I would have abused my mod power to temp ban you for the lazy title alone.
