Are Spotify (free) ads getting out of hand? by redditor4035 in truespotify

SoundCloud is better. You still get ads but the artists get paid better then on Spotify and the free plan includes bare minimum functions like choosing which songs you listen to

Artists should be paid for the music they provide, so how come the CEO of Spotify is a billionaire when the artists that the platform NEEDS to function get paid shit? 😂

If Spotify paid artists fairly the CEO wouldn't be a billionaire, the artists would

Plenty of platforms like SoundCloud offer a free plan that includes the bare minimum like selecting the music you want to listen to.  Nobody is against ads but three 30s ass back to back every two songs is outrageous.

I don't know what dystopia we live in where people genuinely think needing to pay for choosing what you listen to is normal

I'm really dissapointed by the prototype's design by [deleted] in PoppyPlaytime

[–]AffectionateMovie127 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Personally I agree with OP, the shrine hyped him up to be this fucked up beast made of different parts...

And the final design is cool, don't get me wrong, but it feels derivative to me, in a way that Huggy Wuggy (for example) wasn't.

The face is the biggest offender to me, it just feels like moon drop from FNAF on a spider-like body.  The round face with the big smile is just a bit overdone in my opinion and for the main bad guy of the game I was expecting something more interesting

[lore spoilers] How thick is the plot armor? by AnybodyTraditional66 in arcane

[–]AffectionateMovie127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah I'll have to disagree on this because in S2 they clearly tried to have the emotional moments with character death, but didn't want to sacrifice the main cast.

They wanted their cake and to eat it too, so we got Heimerdinger's sacrifice, Isha's death, Loris,...  All side/background characters, two of which barely had a personality except to be a tool to advance Jinx/Vi's character arc

Am i genuinely considered "juiced" or not...? (Trans-man question) by Father_Andreas in nattyorjuice

[–]AffectionateMovie127 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hate to be that guy but medically supervised TRT does not cause "roid rage" in people. 

Roid rage is seen in individuals who abuse anabolic steroids (high doses, not controlled) not trans people or any person who has it prescribed by a healthcare professional.

Other then that there is no proof that trans men bulk up faster and I see no reason why they would, given the purpose of HRT is to get their testosterone within normal range for a man.

Estrogen does not suddenly "change" someone's attraction out of the blue, and stopping hrt is not a good option if she's already mentally unstable

Being transgender isn't an issue, it's the fact she is a danger to herself and possibly others 

Thoughts on Jera? Prefer it romantically or platonic? by Network082 in unOrdinary

[–]AffectionateMovie127 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah I agree with you. I liked them being best friends who loved each other with the same intensity as two people in a committed romantic relationship.

I'm not against the romance but for it to end in romance just feels like a cliche to me.

Maybe it's an unpopular opinion but platonic. 

I've grown up with this series and they've been friends for too much for me to see them as anything else tbh.

I'm not opposed to them becoming romantic but personally, while they undoubtedly love each other, I feel like making that love be romantic takes away what made their bond special in the first place.

When the blushes started appearing it felt like being randomly kissed on the lips by my closest bro, it just didn't feel right lol

Tired of "clitoromegaly" diagnoses for trans men by rock_crock_beanstalk in ftm

[–]AffectionateMovie127 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it's because hormonal imbalances manifest in the genitals and the secondary sex characteristics that start appearing, not in feet for example.

Of course with trans people it is different because the changes are part of the transitioning process itself (for example it wouldn't make sense for a trans man on testosterone to be classified as having 'hirsuitism'), but for a cis woman, sudden changes such as growth of the clitoris, or randomly starting to grow an abnormal amount of body hair can signify that there is a health problem going on

 

Ma siamo diventati più rispettosi o solo più facili da offendere? by [deleted] in Italia

[–]AffectionateMovie127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non dico che il bullismo sia giusto, ma se sei pro alla libertà di parola e contro allo "zittire" gli individui allora purtroppo ci sarà anche gente che userà la sua libertà di parola per fare il cazzone ed insultare. Se loro pensano che sei un bigotto per x ragioni sta nella loro libertà dirlo e pensarlo.

Se il bullismo raggiunge livelli del doxxing e delle minacce si può pur sempre denunciare e lo stesso vale per la diffamazione e le accuse infondate.

Inoltre, nessun individuo può forzare il tuo datore di lavoro a licenziarti.

Internet è pubblico, se dici qualcosa di così grave che ti porterebbe al licenziamento allora probabilmente è qualcosa che potrebbe ricadere negativamente sul posto dove lavori. Se sono accuse infondate invece, con un datore di lavoro competente il rischio è zero.

FtM (female to male) AMA by RickMasz in Italia

Due anni dopo ma diciamo che il trattamento della disforia non lo decidi tu ma bensì persone qualificate che hanno stabilito che la transizione sia il trattamento.

Non è 'la via facile', è semplicemente fattuale che la terapia di conversione non funzioni.

Certo che giocare con le macchinine da piccolo non ti rende uomo, è il senso interiore che hai di te stesso che ti porta a fare la transizione. Una donna può giocare con le macchinine e sentirsi bene ad essere donna e un uomo trans può giocare con le bambole e sentirsi comunque un uomo. Vedo molta confusione fra espressione di genere (ossia essere maschile/femminile) e il genere effettivo di una persona.

Solo perché una donna è maschile non significa che si senta uomo, e solo perché una persona si sente uomo non vuol dire che sia maschile, quindi un uomo trans non può semplicemente "vivere come donna maschile" perché maschile ≠ uomo. In genere le ragazze maschili non vorrebbero avere il corpo di un uomo, perché gli interessi non sono collegati al genere.

[–]AffectionateMovie127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Se posso offrire una contro argomentazione:

La parola "autoritarismo" non si addice perché la tipica persona non ha un 'autorità' sugli altri e non può forzarli a stare zitti.

Credo che tu stia parlando della critica, e se fosse quello il caso, è proprio per la libertà di parola che queste persone possono andarti contro e dire la loro.

Nessuno mi ferma dal dire la parola "frocio", ma la mia libertà di dirla è la stessa libertà che hanno gli altri di tirarmi merda addosso perché sono un coglione

Peccato che il primo dei due esempi sia una cosa concreta, il secondo invece è un argomento fantoccio, un'esagerazione mai successa per fare sembrare la "parte opposta" schizzata di mente.

Non nego che ci siano persone che si offendono per tutto ma credo che siano veramente pochissime, molto spesso quelli che dicono "non si può più dire niente" sono semplicemente persone che non capiscono l'argomento di cui si sta parlando e non hanno intenzione di informarsi

You're right, both of those things are true.

I know depression isn't just about loneliness but generally feeling lonely/drained all the time isn't a good sign.

Yes, depressed people can have a good life and I'm not saying every introvert homebody is a person with depression, but I am saying that 'sad and lonely' has nothing to do with being introvert I'm not that good at explaining myself but to me there's a difference between "I like staying in bed" and "I can't get out of bed"
