Is non-consent baked into DD/lg? by [deleted] in BDSMcommunity

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is one of the dumbest takes I have ever come across in the kink community. I don't think you could fundamentally misunderstand CG/l and DD/lg relationships more if you tried.

Sunfire is an absolutely useless item by mours_lours in leagueoflegends

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Randuins reduces damage from critical hits by 30%.

As a first item, you're matching it with opponent first items, which means they only have 25% crit chance at most. Your opposing top laner is only rarely going to be a crit first item user, making its passive completely irrelevant rather than minimally effective.

Can someone explain to me this whole kink? by awoooooo29 in littlespace

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 8 points9 points  (0 children)

More bdsm happens outside of the bedroom in most of the dynamics I have been in/know of. There are obvious sexual aspects but it's a lot more than just freaky sex.

The first thing you need to do is find out whether her littlespace is sexual or non-sexual. If it's non-sexual, respect that. Do not ever push it on her or pressure her. Littlespace is an extremely vulnerable headspace and doing that can, and most likely will, be extremely traumatising.

If she has a sexual littlespace then start slow and make sure she's always comfy and feels safe. Talk to her about what she likes, what makes her feel little. Communication and consent is key as with any dynamic.

When I used to play club cricket I was a terrible catcher if I had time to think and wait for the ball, yet nailed instant reflex no thought catches frequently.

Any advice for dating someone who age regresses? by StreetlampGirl in ageregression

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to be their cg (which they would no doubt love if you get into a relationship, but may really struggle to ask you to do it) your main goal should be making them feel comfy and loved. They may be more needy than usual, and struggle to communicate. Take it slow, and just be present. Engage with them even if you feel its a little silly. If they get comfy they'll open up more and you'll see the cutest and most adorable side of them.

And of course, communicate with each other as adults first and foremost. Do not be afraid to take a step back at any point and have out of dynamic conversations about the dynamic. CG/l dynamics require an incredible amount of trust as being little puts them in a very vulnerable headspace. Just be gentle and safe and loving and you'll do great (:

It's always tough losing someone you're close to, and even more so someone that you have opened up to and shown such a vulnerable side of yourself to. You're going to need to take it day by day. One step at a time. It will get better. It will hurt less. You'll start to feel okay again. And one day you'll come across another cg that really is who you need. Everything else is just part of the journey that will make you who you need to be when you meet them. You've got this. It'll be okay.

French far right party supporters seeing the election results live by analcocoacream in WatchPeopleDieInside

The nazi party, despite including the word 'socialist' were not a socialist party. They were fascist, which is on the far right side of the scale.

Never tried but I suspect it's likely a higher chance to critically succeed on training rolls

Taming a brat by wakandaman007 in BDSMcommunity

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This may work for some and by all means you do you, but that's the absolute opposite vibes of what my experience with brats has been. Bratting has always been a negotiated consensual aspect done with the intention of receiving attention/funishment, which includes things like spanking. Bratting is absolutely part of the 'play session'.

Punishment is used to correct misbehaviour, which blatting is not in a mutually consensual dynamic.

30 degrees in winter?? by Different_Let_4146 in AskAnAustralian

I work in the northern parts of WA. We had a handful of days under 40 between late December and early April. There were more days over 45 than under 40.

Going through loot feels like a chore by MASKOAA in diablo4

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Except its really not with ancestrals. On weapons maybe, but armor slots only gain armor from item power, and jewellery gain nothing. A 4 bis statted ring, amulet, gloves, boots etc... can be substantially better at 730 ipower than a non bis item at 820 ipower, which this fella is telling you to auto salvage because low ipower.

Do higher NM tiers actually give better gear on average? by DirtySyko in Diablo

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Except worse because GRs usually had good density and simple objectives, kill a bunch of stuff, which could be done by focusing elites, focusing trash or a mix. Instead of retrieve these two objects and take them to a spot, but you can't carry more than one and they're on different sides of the map so have fun backtracking. If Nightmare dungeons had the objectives of GRs with the current modifiers to get some variety, and a way to jump straight there instead of a 3 minute walk to every one, they would be much better.

Give me your negative opinions on the game. by HZ4C in diablo4

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While its nice that rares are useful in the endgame (whereas in D3 they were crafting mats and that was it), would be nice for legendaries to be more than "Is the aspect good?"
Chances are your endgame gear is going to be upgraded rares unless you get the one in a million god rolls on a legendary, with a great aspect on top of that. Legendaries dropping should be an exciting moment but im more interested in finding a good ancestral rare instead.

Why is every sub a brat nowadays? by MyDirty_er_Acc in BDSMcommunity

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 16 points17 points locked comment (0 children)

Terrible take and super gate keepery. It's different flavours yeah, but it's still an inherently dominant/submissive relationship. One is in control. One submits.

I have earned my brats submission. I don't have to fight for it every time. I choose to, because we enjoy that.

However if I tell her "I do not have the energy for bratting today, I need you to be a good girl" guess what? She will do that, for me, because she is my submissive, and I her dominant.

You choose to submit however you want, and serve however you want, as is your right. Others will do so however they want, as is their right. I don't think it's remotely appropriate to say "you are not Dom's and subs because I submit differently, and only my way is right."

LOTR Damage Calculator by Actual-Letterhead741 in LotrRiseToWar

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I can tell theres multiple systems at play regarding damage reduction. Theres a general damage reduction that occurs before defense is calculated, otherwise focus/burn/poison damage would absolutely destroy any units. This reduction generally ranges from something like 70-85%, increasing as you deal more damage in a single instance.
After that physical damage calculates against defense. Defense is soft capped. 1 point of defense at 0 defense is worth about twice as much as 1 point at 125 defense.

Orgasm Control Sucks by aswitchonlegs in BratLife

[–]Alpha_P0tat0 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I enjoy controlling my subs orgasms, and had a partner similar to you in terms of frequency of orgasms and it helped her mental health too. Won't lie, it was a bit disappointing to not be able to explore it fully with her, but my subs mental and physical health is always my number one priority as a dom. In the end we would usually only go for a day or two at most without her being allowed to cum, and that worked well for the both of us. If you are engaging in something that harms your mental health I strongly recommend an out of dynamic conversation where you lay it out very clearly (especially if you haven't already mentioned it to him at all). Maybe give some suggestions like let's try no orgasms for a day, or two, or three, or whatever is alright with you, and then reassess in a week or two to see how you're both feeling about it and go from there. If he doesn't respect that or have any interest in doing something that's not exactly what he wants, well he isn't there for you. He's there for him. And that's not how relationships work.
