lameidunnowat, in Is there an artist so horrible that no matter how hard you try that you cannot separate their art from them?

Generally all of them. Every time I consider this question about an artist, I try and consider if I was the victim in the crime. Would I be okay hearing, seeing, or listening to this any longer? If the answer is no, then it’s no for me.

I want to live empathetically and have to put my money where my mouth is.

There was a cover of Radioactive by Marina on guitar I’d listen to in the bathroom at high school but I can’t find it again on Youtube

Louis Cole has a great understanding of music structure and plays around with it very well

Sundog: Frozen Legacy (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SunDog:_Frozen_Legacy) originally for Apple II but brought to PC. My friend and I spent countless hours roleplaying as Han Solo, trading contraband and pulling bounties. If you want an incredible space trading/combat sim experience, forget Star Citizen, this game is for you!

Whoa I totally played this when I was super little, thanks for the nostalgia hit!

The Wizard, the Witch, and the Wild One - A D&D podcast. It’s cast should be pretty familiar if you’re into other D&D podcasts - Brennan Lee Mulligan is the DM, Aabria Iyengar, Erika Ishii and Lou Wilson are players - but it doesn’t seem to have many listeners.

It strikes a nice balance between scripted narrative performances and actual play. It’s edited and scored with a light touch that stops it dragging like the raw sessions of something like Critical Role, but preserving the authentic character breaking reactions as the dice takes it somewhere interesting. The players don’t seem to be in on a “script”, anymore so than the normal sort of out of session discussions you might have in a narrative heavy game at home, but the DM does a very good job of keeping it focused. It’s also thankfully not another billion player table, three is much more comfortable.

The vibe is excellent. From cozy slices of life to drama that plays on your heartstrings as three childhood friends reconnect and go on an adventure. Its trailer conveys the tone pretty well honestly: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q9et3Othu4

elbarto777,

Starsiege. No, not tribes. Starsiege, third game in the earthsiege series. Tribes was actually a spin off in the same universe that got much more popular (with good reason, tribes was awesome).

Starsiege was a pc game that came in a bigass box, complete with multiple books filled with lore from the game’s universe. It wasn’t as well received as mech warrior (another mech sim), so it didn’t have a big community. But those of us that played it loved it to death. I think you can still get the game running if you don’t mind fucking with a bunch of sketchy third party patches.

ComradeR, in Who in your opinion is the modern day equivalent to Mozart?

Kevin MacLeod.

OhmsLawn, (edited ) in What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?

Edit: Just to sell it a little harder, this album has phenomenal songwriting. It’s got a laid-back LA-surf-rock sound with elements of punk and maybe a hint of wistful country in the lyrics.

The What! Help is On The Way

This album and band is endangered, no CD’s, unavailable on any music streaming service.

The only online version I could find is this a random YouTube upload.

One of my favorite bands ever. They were introduced to me by a friend’s sister in, like 1999. Their band ended quickly after the death of one of the members.

The only other link related to them now appears to be a remaining band member’s channel, which hasn’t been updated in 11 years.

darganon, in What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?

Keep your dog away from their dog.

Are you suggesting that I leave the dog park because their dog is not neutered and they wont control their dog’s behavior?

Jagger2097,

You can talk to them, which it seems like you tried and it didn’t convince them to do something, or you can leave. Are there other viable options?

spacecowboy,

Pistols at dawn.

Kase,

Oh god, I haven’t felt the urge to make a hamilton reference as strongly as I do in this moment since high school. WhatdoIdo??

breathes deeply Sorry about that, the inner theater kid gets out of hand from time to time. The situation is under control now.

Jagger2097,

So you threw away your shot?

jackoneill,

He could grow some balls and remove the other dog from his dog and then explain to the other dog’s owner why he’s an asshole and needs to leave

Montagge,
@Montagge@kbin.social avatar

If this is in America that's a good way to get shot

Gingerrific,

Physically restraining the problematic dog.

bionicjoey,

Either that or talk to other owners at the park about collectively shunning the problematic owner. It sounds harsh but I’ve seen this work and it’s preferable to giving up a beloved community hangout just because of one asshole.

fine_sandy_bottom,

My goodness me.

“Talk to all the other people at the park and turn them against one other person in order to avoid an awkward conversation with said person”.

If someone at the park told me to avoid some other person because their dog is a humper I world tell them to grow up.

bionicjoey, (edited )

I’m assuming OP has already asked the problem owner to stop and they are refusing to control their dog properly. Obviously talking to them comes first.

fine_sandy_bottom,

You could take photos of the dog humping your dog and make posters & flyers warning everyone.

Better yet, you could post to your local “mother’s chat” Facebook group and let them resolve it

liztliss,

If your dog isn’t spayed a dog park IS a pretty sketchy place for her to be

Catoblepas,

OP’s dog may be spayed, unneutered male dogs will hump anything.

liztliss,

Sure, in which case I guess it’s just annoying? My dog will usually bark or snap at dogs that try to mount her, if you are at the dog park that behavior will happen regardless, spayed female dogs hump as well as males who are both neutered and not 🤷‍♀️

Would feel pretty horrifying if it were humans in the dog’s place. I’d either tell the owner to get their dog to knock it off or find a new park with better trained dogs (and owners). :P

Socsa,

Literally if you can’t handle the dog park don’t go there. This is pretty much why we don’t go the the dog park when it is crowded as well.

pantyhosewimp, (edited ) in What is an obscure piece of media or videogame that you think nobody else here has heard of?

Music from two bands in the DC area from the 90s. Testicular Momentum and Scooter Trash. Searchs for these bands are more likely to turn up results for testicular torsion or scooter rentals in Washington than the bands.

Testicular Momentum is proper original industrial music from before Nine Inch Nails stole the name for a pop music sub genre.

Scooter Trash is hard rock. The kind of music that’s suitable for hearing if you’re drunk in a loud bar.

As for particular media…

TM has a track on a various artists cassette: www.discogs.com/artist/238652

Same with ST but a more recent digital release: discogs.com/…/2804166-Various-Fuck-Corporate-Wank…

Spacemanspliff, in What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?

Mount their dog.

Altofaltception, in What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?

Mount the owner.

Owner is playing 5d chess because that’s what they wanted.

tygerprints, in What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?

You could go up and start mounting the other dog's owner multiple times.

Bitrot,
@Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I find this usually gets the attention of the other owner as well.

lettruthout, in What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?

Put yourself between it and your dog. Mounting is an act to show dominance. Be the more dominant dog.

Let the dog mount you, got it
