I’ve now switched to having a shitty chromebook hooked up to my TV with an hdmi cable so I can pirate anything I want when I want. I definitely recommend it, no need to deal with ads either on YouTube when not using their shitty TV app!
So true, I just finished a rewatch and it took me like 10 minutes to adjust my monitors brightness to be higher than the default just so I could see a little bit clearer. Episode 7 I think is the most egregious in making it too dark to see anything.
When texting people in general I find it frustrating that people don’t seem to view it as a conversation. If someone texts me and I catch it and text back right away, I get frustrated when people don’t return the favor. They might text back 5, 10, minutes or an hour or more later. Why did you text me if you didn’t want to...
Wat? I have ADHD and I view texting completely different. It is not like a face to face convo, it’s more akin to email, but less formal. You reply when you have time, unless it is urgent.
I’m a paralegal, and Wisconsin is the same. We had a headache in one case a couple years ago where nobody knew the other party was pregnant, not even her attorney, until the final hearing and she was asked the generic question about pregnancy before finalizing. We then had to do a partial final judgment and schedule another final hearing a couple of months after her expected due date to fully finalize it.
I agree and also thought they did a pretty good job. Not perfect, but perfection is never attainable and for having to squeeze everything into 8 episodes, they did well!
Ok, while I agree that was super cringe and there is definitely some more throughout, it’s pretty short sighted to deem the entire remake bad when the first episodes are generally never the best in the seasons. They had to cram a lot of back story in and only had 8 episodes. I found the first episode to be the weakest out of the entire season. Overall, it’s mid, but not bad and has some really enjoyable moments.
Also, I assume the flying is due to budget constraints, and it would have been too expensive to cgi a ball of air to fly on.
To each their own, though. Everyone’s got their opinions ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Right but it’s easier and cheaper to tell a story through animation vs live action. Just because the live action run time is close to the original animation run time, doesn’t mean it’s practical or feasible to do the same in live action.
I don’t think animation and live action can pace the same for something like this. Things that feel rushed in animation feel rushed ten fold in live action. I’d think episodes would at least need to be expanded to a solid half hour for pacing when it comes to a live action.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see a perfect adaption. But, I think that would require a HUGE budget and would have to be a billionaires passion project for all the cgi and general costs it would need to properly make an ATLA live action that perfectly follows the animation.
Since that’s never going to happen, I appreciate the live action we have for what it is, and between budget and time constraints, I think they did a good job.
I 100% agree the writing was bad, and I blame netflix pushing out the original writers. I’m more impressed that the kid actors did what they did when the script gave them so little to work with. Kataras character was butchered. But on the flip side Sokka, Zuko, and Iroh killed it I thought.
This could have been great like the One Piece live action, but settled for mid. I think it was at least good just because I did have some very enjoyable moments through out, mostly in the second half, and I also loved a lot of the visuals and animals.
My boss loves asking me why I haven’t done something he asked me to do a month ago, only for me to tell him I did it a month ago and it’s in review for him to finalize 🥲
Because life couldn’t exist as we know it if there wasn’t an inherent desire to live. If living organisms didn’t have that inate drive to continue living, all species would become extinct before ever evolving.
Though I don’t have any actual knowledge in this area so who knows if I’m right. Just my assumptions!
Now this is speculation on my part, but I assume that any organisms that didn’t have this innate drive randomly present in their biology, they died off, so all that’s left now are the organisms with this drive.
So organisms that didn’t seek out reproduction at our earliest form of life, are dead and what remains are the organisms that randomly developed with this drive.
Thanks!! My partner said the sweater nail looks like a ribbed dildo 😭 it was originally jelly polish and it looked like jello before I put the matte top coat on.
Lol I do the first layer of the lines and then cure it, add another layer, and repeat until it’s built up enough to have definition. Then I lightly file it to make the height even before adding a thin layer of hard gel and finally a thin layer of matte top coat to finish!
This sets a bit complicated since my last set was black, so when I filed it down, I still had a few shadows from the last polish. Because of that, I used a solid opaque nude as a base on all of my fingers before using the actual colored polishes I wanted.
The pinks are jelly GAOY nudes
The glitter nails are actually a mix of metallic powder with rose gold glitter
The thumb is Veronni pink metallic, though that one separates and gets streaky if I don’t mix it well before use!
I use Beatles for the base and top coats along with a hard gel overlay for extra strength 😊
I feel so lucky I haven’t had a cat or dog have issues with free feeding! If I ever had a pet that was a glutton, I’d need one of those timed feeder bowls or I’d constantly forget to do it. Though, I’m sure they would make sure to remind me anyway!
