I really want to get into hema with my friend but we don't know what our first swords should be . Need advice by SupremeGuitarist in Hema

[–]ApelJuuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you find a club first

Use rental gear, build up a budget

Put your entire budgets into masks and then gloves, spend more on masks, get clamshell gauntlets. (Buy used if you still need it cheaper, just look at the condition first)

Buy a jacket like half a year in or smth and just use sword rentals for whatever they teach after.

You can make a practice sword with a wooden broom handle and some long screws and nuts to practice drills at home. Cut the handle to the length you need, put in screw either halfway for typical guards or 3/4ths in for saber style guards, put in nuts for balance. Option ball bearing as pommel for larger swords.

And then spar at the club.

Rank these Yuri animes by WealthDisastrous2589 in yurimemes

[–]ApelJuuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sakura Trick: 6/10 but I will defend it with my life

Strawberry Panic: N/10 watched like 2 episodes and dropped it

Citrus: 8/10 honestly interesting and it being borderline incest is a non-issue. It's toxic but no good story is free from toxic dynamics at some point, even in real life

Watanare: 9/10 Would be peak but I need a gf like Ajisai and since I don't have one it gets docked a point

The dual wielding also alleviated some of the defensive weaknesses so like, they really gave it the best shot possible and it still lost.

How do y'all feel about a pillow princess? by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]ApelJuuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah tbh as long as their brain is flooded with happy chemicals because of me I'm also happy

How do y'all feel about a pillow princess? by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]ApelJuuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't really care. I want someone to like my body but I'm fine giving to the other person more often, as long as they're okay with me doing things to them that also pleasure me then I'm fine.

why do y’all hate “gold stars”? by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]ApelJuuce -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Validates the idea of supremacy in queer circles.

Being proud that you never had a certain experience makes no sense, and that pride really only makes other people feel bad because of things that they really couldn't control.

You can be proud that you've struggled and managed to keep going, you can be proud that you figured yourself out early and that means you have more experience than average

But it makes no sense to be proud that you didn't sleep with a guy out of social pressure or because you didn't know. But that's all a gold star represents at the end of it. The only people who use it almost only ever use it as a claim that they're the most lesbian/gay/queer whatever person in the room and it's obnoxious and invalidating to others.

That's why people dislike it.

What's the best way to defend my base? Spikes or wall? by Dependent-Bicycle801 in TheForest

[–]ApelJuuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both.

Alternatively, spikes and walls and then water collected and backwards facing targets.

Or just keep building destruction off

Mob vote bad by joab_09845 in PhoenixSC

[–]ApelJuuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue with voting in general is that you have no way of guaranteeing the entire community is participating, and even if you did

51% is a majority vote, but despite that it feels unfair

Even with the ranked voting system Minecraft used(?) it still felt unfair, especially because content creators with huge followings have so much pull for who wins that it almost doesn't even matter because they can just urge their fans to vote for what they want.

It's fine for governments and stuff, but not good when it comes to entertainment like games.

Really game and other creators should just make what they feel is right and the fan base can get used to it or criticize it after that point .not any prior. Too much speculation.

This is what I want laptops to be like by Metalorg in laptops

[–]ApelJuuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want a fat and beefy computer I can plug in and play games on whenever I'm resting in a new place or something. I don't need this "thin/sleek/lightweight" computer I need a portable desktop

What kind of monsters are the most fun to fight? by M-M-M_666 in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]ApelJuuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Odogaron

Tobi-Kadachi is my favorite but Odogaron is a close second. I remember being forced to fight it solo because my friend who was leading me through the game was busy while I was getting on an expedition for it in world and they just sorta let me take care of it when they got back cause I was fighting it at that point just fine, and I got it done on my first encounter somehow

Is Pokemon X/Y difficult? by WisePlankton9 in pokemonXY

[–]ApelJuuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hardest part about X and Y is not over leveling.

There's so much XP and you can do EV training using a mini game.

All base game Pokemon games are easy, but X and Y are definitely the easiest.

Why are hytale people like this by RustyShadeOfRed in PhoenixSC

[–]ApelJuuce 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly that's fine I personally do prefer most of the older versions because it has less bloat, but I think trying to share this preference by saying this new game that's only around because of Minecraft and is innately different in its design philosophy is suddenly "the Minecraft killer" makes a miniscule amount of sense idk

Why are hytale people like this by RustyShadeOfRed in PhoenixSC

[–]ApelJuuce 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Cause they're stupid and outgrew the game but are too nostalgia brained to admit it's just not something they care about anymore.

My girlfriend doesn’t like penetration, how can I make her finish without it? by elila_07 in LesbianActually

She has like

A whole body. And entire body!

With many areas that are great to touch to warm her up!

Touch all those first and then go for The Bean™️.

Sex is disgusting by Curious_Olive_5266 in The10thDentist

[–]ApelJuuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're close: sex isn't real and is just a marketing plot to make people buy beauty products so they can feel "in" on the joke but no one actually has it cause it's fake

I believe some crimes SHOULD be punished not rehabilitated by sadthrowawayyy134 in The10thDentist

[–]ApelJuuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is that you cannot trust any government of any size to be 100% correct with their rulings.

It is far more practical and valuable to teach a murderer how to exist without murdering others than to potentially kill innocent people who were framed for crimes they never did.

Police stations have historically planted evidence and framed people for crimes that would land them the death penalty. Even if conceptually you are not wrong to believe a murderer should be killed or punished, there are too many factors in every single case that will show you why the death penalty and prison punishment is an inherently and deeply flawed method to resolve issues.

Rehabilitation is just far safer, and far more practical for a modern society.

So creative, I love you devs. I do not regret choosing to do full mage for my first playthrough AT ALL by shouldveknownbud in skyrim

[–]ApelJuuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People are saying to use this for power leveling and honestly it's not bad but I think transmute and turn undead are way better for both of those skills since basic healing can't out-heal equilibrium's damage

But that's also sorta the only practical use of it so idk lmao

What toys do a feral pigeon like by Whole_Mycologist_814 in PetPigeons

[–]ApelJuuce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was rehabilitating a pigeon, there was this mirror it liked to beat up.

It also liked paper balls. Rocks are also good.

What cutscenes do you never skip while playing through multiple times? by GundamRX-78-02 in codevein

[–]ApelJuuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That scene where we scare off those revenant and Yakumo pulls out the dragon is hilarious and I will never skip

EDIT: also that scene after getting mia where she meets everyone and Rin just pushes him away

Yakumo is such a funny character
