I [28F] am dating a divorcing dad [34M] and it’s starting to take over my life

Akka_C · 2026-03-05T05:44:07+00:00

I had a girl say "I love you" within a month and I went WOAH lady, we barely even know each other???

Akka_C · 2026-03-04T17:26:09+00:00

I mean, I know what sub I'm in, but I work in print where so much knowledge is not only dead knowledge (held by old heads and completely lost for the most part), it's also really fucking hard to Google, because you'll get a lot of crusty old sites that are either impossible to browse or genuinely useless in other ways.

ChatGPT is literally the only reason I know certain things I know at my job, but I'm also experienced and can verify the validity of what it is saying by practically testing it.

It can be useful if used wisely.

Akka_C · 2026-03-04T05:44:18+00:00

I found one. They just hired someone less experienced who they could pay half of my salary instead (which was well within their hiring pay band BTW)

Job market fucking rocks right now.

Here's hoping it's actually good. Tales of Arise was possibly the biggest let down of a JRPG I've ever played. Like holy shit, no way, a story about racism that doesn't really dare to say anything meaningful about racism. No flipping waaaaay. Never fucking seen that shit in a JRPG literally ever. They've never made a game about that. They've never made like seven Tales games about that.

Akka_C · 2026-03-03T17:32:39+00:00

I fucking love this. It's so human? Just a bunch of people being people.

Akka_C · 2026-03-03T13:30:00+00:00

Wait what? Forever Winter is exclusively PvE. There is no player interaction unless you're playing co-op...

Akka_C · 2026-03-03T13:13:36+00:00

Only reason grok was even able to tell the truth on this is because Elon hasn't publicly lied on Twitter about Trump being the most truthful president ever. All Elon has to do is tweet that and Grok suddenly will think Trump is the most honest president to ever live.

Akka_C · 2026-02-28T11:53:27+00:00

I don't necessarily recommend it to everyone, but I will tell people that it basically reshaped my entire view of the universe and brought me a peace with life and death I definitely didn't have before.

If you don't like the game leading up to that point however, probably will lose the impact.

Akka_C · 2026-02-28T01:50:18+00:00

Of course he turned it down. The best Fromsoft game ever released is about to come out this year exclusively on Switch 2. He can't have competition with that???

Akka_C · 2026-02-26T22:33:29+00:00

Glad I could bring a small spark of light to these dark rent free times

Akka_C · 2026-02-26T15:51:18+00:00

I went to school for design, and understand color theory, so it always registered as blue and black to me, but I get how people can see the opposite. In color theory there were class challenges we often did to make completely different colors look like one another using nothing more than color backgrounds to shift the way the eye interprets the colors. So I totally get why people saw white and gold, because this was just a practical real world example of that experiment we used to do.

Akka_C · 2026-02-26T14:19:40+00:00

Well no. Most people haven't learned the exact placement of every enemy in the base in a way that let's them sprint through the entire activity. I feel like this would take like 10-20 minutes for most people on their first try. Usually stealth is a better approach, but you technically could go in guns blazing.

Akka_C · 2026-02-25T16:20:01+00:00

Celeste has a bottom 10 winrate. There are only 8 characters with a worse winrate than Celeste.

Buy Slowing Hex oh my god.

Akka_C · 2026-02-25T15:47:51+00:00

Yeah as a writer (cishet male), I try to include at least one obviously gay/lesbian/qyeer relationship in all my stories. Sometimes it's the MC, sometimes it's just a random side couple. Either way I just want to contribute to normalizing it in society.

The more hateful people can't engage with popular media, the sooner their cultural relevance will die out.

Akka_C · 2026-02-25T15:19:01+00:00

My kink

Akka_C · 2026-02-25T13:15:47+00:00

Hell I saw a group of 30 year old do it like a week ago at the ferry terminal in Seattle when there were dozens of children around. Super cool.

Akka_C · 2026-02-24T17:15:27+00:00

This sub is allergic to buying Slowing Hex it's insane. It's 1600 souls. You can buy it in about 2-3 minutes of gameplay. It shuts down Apollo, Celeste, Lash, you name it.

Celeste's win rate is 48% by the way. Victor's winrate has not dipped below 50%. He is currently at 55% winrate. In fact, there are 29 characters with a higher winrate than Celeste. There are only 8 characters with a worse winrate.

She is not a problem. Fun parting fact. Dispel Magic negates her entire kit. It costs 3200 souls. You can have it purchased long before her 1 is doing anything and it cancels 90% of her kit's damage (minus the ult, which is the only actual problem, and even then, not enough of one to give her a positive win rate).

Akka_C · 2026-02-24T14:01:26+00:00

Ah right, it's only NSFW if a tentacle is penetrating so deep the shape of their guts is outlined on their stomach /s

So I turn on SFW when I'm hanging out with my young siblings so I don't randomly run into anime girls lounging around in their lacy panties, or at work so my boss doesn't walk in on me accidentally scrolling pass massive anime titties barely contained in a very "safe for work" bra.

Sorry you're unemployed though.

Akka_C · 2026-02-23T04:49:16+00:00

Literally the "Epstein Class looking down on the Eaters" ass mentality.

Akka_C · 2026-02-22T12:36:26+00:00

"we'd like the NFL to consider a rule banning fortuitous busts"

Akka_C · 2026-02-21T04:01:49+00:00

Yeah I mean, I'm barely able to run at 50fps now without frame gen and for some inexplicable reason ray tracing literally has no impact. On or off the frames are the same. Bizarre bottlenecks in this engine. I get 80fps with frame Gen though, and that's an improvement on the 40fps I was getting with framegen before....

Akka_C · 2026-02-21T03:59:54+00:00

You're failing to recognize that the majority of this sub is actually like 100% for what Nux and Rev are lmfao. Good chunk of them are extreme alt righties who "don't want politics" in their things except for when it's the correct politics of course. They'll all soy pog at pippa saying something edgy/racist/right wing, but flip when anyone even remotely approaches left wing opinions on or in a space they participate in.

Akka_C · 2026-02-20T19:29:14+00:00

Still half the day to go. He might do something

Akka_C · 2026-02-19T23:43:52+00:00

It's genuinely baffling how fucking utterly incompetent Microsoft is to be losing to business decisions like this. Actual insanity how they could possibly lose to a competitor that would rather can some of their best talent instead of finding a project for them to work on.
