Can I drive up Station Terrace to park in Capitol Centre?
 in  r/Cardiff  8d ago

No, you don't. They've changed it within the past few months. I literally drive this route for work most days.

Drive past the Prison and University of South Wales. Turn right at the lights just after you go under the railway bridge, before the Arena. Drive past the arena and from there you can drive straight on to that road that leads to the Capital Car Park

I absolutely adore the way he says his own name. It's so wholesome.

(First Time Watcher) Fire Walk With Me Broke Me
 in  r/twinpeaks  16d ago

In the 90s I mean. What I specifically meant is that it's a shame we didn't get more of 90s Twin Peaks and that we didn't get a Fire Walk With Me or Original Series follow up back when the cast was all still young.

Help/Advice What should I add to my ten gallon tank?

1 Upvotes

I have a 12 gallon tank a thrieving colony of red cherry shrimp.

I did have a bunch of male Guppies, but they have unfortunately all passed away now.

Question is, do I get Guppies again? (I wouldn't get all males as they constantly harassed eachother). Or, do I try something new?

A school of Neon tetras? Some Danios?

What combinations of fish would people recommend to go with my shrimp? I'd love a betta, but would feel awful if they started eating up my shrimpies!

I'll be honest. I was actually incredibly drunk writing this post so I'm surprised this came out as coherently as it did haha.

But yeah, of course Engels and Frost are hugely important to this film (and the success of Twin Peaks as a whole).

It really is a shame that Frost and Lynch parted ways and this film didn't do better because it's fascinating to think what more 90s TP movie's may have looked like.

I've been watching the series for the first time ( I thought it was finally time to see what the fuss was about after Lynch's passing) and enjoyed it a lot.

Going into FWWM, I really wasn't sure what to expect. All I knew is critically the film had a mixed reception but that fans nowadays liked it a lot.

And well, even though I can fully understand why it was panned, I have to say that as someone who enjoyed the original two seasons, it was an absolutely fantastic watch. Initially every time they threw back to the original series I was giddy; yet as the film went on, I found myself more and more touched and shaken by what was unfolding.

Seeing Laura's life through her point of view, how she felt James and Bobby only really wanted her for body, how she tried to defend Donna, how Jaques and Leo treated her, how Leland abused her, even when he seemingly wasn't 'BOB' (that dirty nails at dinner scene oh my god) and how Sarah was seemingly complicit in it all. Fuck man, it really changes how you view the original series and the Town of Twin Peaks.

And the ending, fuck. Seeing Laura come to terms with her fate and laughing as she passed on, what a hauntingly beautiful scene. I genuinely cannot put into words how it made me feel. I haven't stopped listening to "Voice of Love" from twh ost since.

As someone who's struggled with mental health and abuse in the past, I really appreciated how this film didn't shy away from the truth of Laura's pain and trauma.

David Lynch. What a truly unique and gifted filmmaker. What a loss. (And the fact Sheryl Lee isn't more widely realised for the talent she has us outrageous).

TIFU by keeping an Adobe subscription running for four longer than Intended and didn't realise 💀
 in  r/tifu  Jan 30 '25

I mean yeah, this is how I am too. Unless it looks way off. Then I don't often look into it. I always put a set amount into savings each month and leave a set amount to get me through the month, and providing I don't get too close to dipping into my overdraft I tend not to always worry about it.

I get notifications for Google Pay and PayPal purchases (what I do most of my purchases through) but not from my bank itself.

You would think that haha.

I'm not sent physical statements. So sometimes things slip me by. Admittedly I am not very good with money.

Still, this is no excuse haha.

For the last few years, I had an Adobe account active that I used for freelance video production work.

I stepped away from that line of work last year and decided that once my next cancellation opportunity arose, I would drop the account.

Late last year was a hectic time for me though. I was navigating a new position at my job, had just entered into a new relationship, was moving, and had a close family member pass away. I could've sworn I cancelled my Adobe subscription, alas I did not.

Today I realise I've been getting charged £50 a month since November for a subscription I haven't used once. How is this possible? God only knows.

Adobe graciously gave me 3 months for free when I explained the situation, but couldn't cancel for me without charging me a fee nearly high as just continuing with the account.

Safe to say I feel like an absolute melon head. Even with everything going on in my life, how I managed to have an extra £50 leave my account without me ever realising, I truly do not know.

TL;DR: I forgot to cancel an unwanted subscription and I'm now stuck paying it till November.

Eh. I mean it's not completely awful. Not as good as the renders but not as bad as I expected either.

Do you have any pictures of any of the UV printed figs?

I'm tempted by a couple of them, but the renders and low price do make me weary

Should I ask for permission to write about real events?
 in  r/writing  Jan 15 '25

Ideally. I'd like to write as closely to the actual events as possible.

I obviously don't want to put this family through any more trauma, but I also don't want to write something strikingly close to reality and claim it's fiction, when I think that reiterating that this is the true story and the failings of the system that lead to these events are very real.

The character of Feathers McGraw in Vengeance Most Fowl
 in  r/wallaceandgromit  Dec 28 '24

Almost every W&G film is full of contrivances. I mean how can no one see through Feathers disguise? Where did Feathers gun come from? Why was Wallace so quick to believe Gromit was guilty in a Close Shave; and how, when they were breaking Gromit out of jail, did they end up in a field of sheep that Preston just so happened to be stealing from?

My point is, these contrivances don't really matter. Having Water tight, believable plots isn't particularly important to enjoying Wallace and Gromit. The world of W&G and the logic of it is a bit silly and that's the point
