Topic | Slayer |
Compsognathus 07/17/20 5:01:16 PM #10 | Into every generation a slayer is born: one girl in all the world, a chosen one. She alone will wield the strength and skill to fight the vampires, demons, and the forces of darkness; to stop the spread of their evil and the swell of their number. She is the Slayer. --- *Gheb is my other account* |

Topic | What's a reasonable allowance for a 7 year old? |
Compsognathus 07/17/20 11:28:03 AM #19 | I also agree that chores and allowance shouldn't be connected. Because some week your kid is gonna decide that not getting $7 is worth not doing chores and I can't imagine you as a parent would be cool with that --- *Gheb is my other account* |
Topic | What's a reasonable allowance for a 7 year old? |
Compsognathus 07/17/20 11:21:05 AM #15 | If your goal is money management then it needs to be a small enough amount that they need to save to get things they want but big enough that the saving process doesn't take so long that the whole thing feels pointless. A seven year old probably doesn't want too many really expensive things. But like if he typically wants 15-20 dollar toys then something like $5-7 bucks is reasonable. It will take three weeks of dedicated saving to get there. Gradually increase it as he ages because he should also build up the patience and money management skills to save up for an buy more expensive things. --- *Gheb is my other account* |
Topic | I saw a film last night about prostitution and cannibalism. Strange. |
Compsognathus 07/17/20 10:22:28 AM #2 | If you can't remember the name of a film you watched last night then you might need to see a neurologist. That isn't normal and may be signs of a bigger issue. --- *Gheb is my other account* |

Compsognathus 07/16/20 12:39:21 PM #10 | It really says something about how poorly a team has been run that you see the average Washington fan hoping this report is damning as possible so they can have a change of ownership and a purge of the front office. --- *Gheb is my other account* |

Compsognathus 07/16/20 11:45:28 AM #16 | The man is a machine. Admittedly he doesn't have the world's greatest prose and maybe part of that is due to his process of writing a 20 pages a day, but he gets shit done and it is never at the cost of story quality or worldbuilding. --- *Gheb is my other account* |
Topic | Why does my local NBC affiliate making me Karen? |
Compsognathus 07/16/20 10:10:15 AM #1 | Quick background: NBC is airing a one hour 30 Rock special tonight that also serves as NBC's upfront presentation since Covid canceled the traditional upfronts. 30 Rock is one of my favorite shows of all time and I'm love following the TV industry so the chance to see an upfront, which are otherwise never publicly released, is a double whammy of greatness. Apparently however my local NBC affiliate is not going to carry it because they say it is promoting NBC's new streaming service, Peakcock, and that is ultimately bad for them. As if streaming hasn't been a thing for 14 years now and a service called Peacock will be the death blow that ends broadcast TV. So now I'm having to write a strongly worded letter of disappointment to our affiliate. It won't do anything, but it will make me feel better. Because fuck them. --- *Gheb is my other account* |

Somewhere in the realm of $120-180 for utilities, mostly because KC Water is a fucking scam.One of my friends is moving from an apartment from Westport to downtown and I just don't get it. Why do that to yourself? I'm also just selfishly sad because she was the last friend I had who lived in Westport. Now I don't have a place to crash if we go hard. --- *Gheb is my other account* |
Topic | Hypothetical: Your dad needs financial support to save his home or business. |
Compsognathus 07/15/20 10:56:41 PM #8 | My dad is much much more well off than me. If he has got himself in a financial situation that had the potential to ruin him, the money needed to fix it is something I don't have. But obviously I'm not letting him and my mom go homeless. I'll put them up in an apartment and make sure they have what they need. I just don't have the means to save the house. --- *Gheb is my other account* |

Compsognathus 07/13/20 11:58:58 PM #13 | AlisLandale posted... There was a public reading of a will?No this was like a ancestor from the 1700s. They just thought it would be a fun thing to do for a family reunion. I personally think it is good that the family found out our ancestors had slaves. Obviously it is not the fault or blame of anyone alive but pretending that your ancestory is all clean does a service to no one. --- *Gheb is my other account* |

Topic | Today, I found out my ancestor was a slave. |
Compsognathus 07/13/20 11:51:15 PM #11 | My family getting a copy of one of my ancestor's wills and doing a first ever public reading of it at a family reunion only to realize that my ancestors owned 9 slaves was a peak awkward moment. People did not see it coming. Which I thought was naive given that he was an upper class white dude in Kentucky. --- *Gheb is my other account* |

Topic | So Season 2 of Mandalorian might include Bona Fett |
Compsognathus 07/13/20 11:20:11 AM #7 | I think Boba Fett is weird to bring in. Besides being dead, he also has minimal ties to Mandalore beyond wearing the armor. Sabine Wren makes more sense as she is a Mandalorian from a prestigious family. She was also last seen with Ahsoka Tano. --- *Gheb is my other account* |

Topic | How long can they use the Holocaust for Magneto's storyline in modern Xmen |
Compsognathus 07/11/20 5:31:47 PM #5 | While in a concentration camp Erik demonstrated his powers. Hydra took him for for study and to see if they could brainwash and weaponize him. They kept him in suspended animation like they did Bucky. Towards the end of the war an Ally attack caused the Nazis/Hydra to retreat and abandon the secret facility and Erik was left in suspended animation until the year 2000 when a younger Charles Xavier was touring through Europe and trying to understand his powers. He detects Erik's thoughts and rescues him they spend then next decade and a half doing mutant stuff before some incident radicalizes Erik, now calling himself Magento. By 2020 Xavier had formed the X-Men and Magneto the Brotherhood of Mutants. You can adjust the hibernation period to get whatever ideal age you want the characters for the movies. --- *Gheb is my other account* |

Compsognathus 07/08/20 4:20:19 PM #10 | I'm actually kinda surprised he mostly ducked the scandal with his ex-wife a couple years back. That said I don't have an issue with using a double for when an actor is not comfortable with a scene so long as the double is, but obviously threatening to end her career over it is very bad. Buffy/Angel are some of my favorite shows ever but Whedon definitely seems like one of those dudes who likes to wear his feminist credentials as a shield against his own suspect behavior. --- *Gheb is my other account* |
