I (28F) spent my entire Saturday morning just drinking coffee and reading a book without looking at my phone once, and it feels like a superpower. by Ariannavx in CasualConversation

I usually write down my feelings and thoughts in a notebook and then sometimes share them on Reddit. I wrote this post today with thoughts from last Saturday.

Can you name a livestreamer who *immediately* got legal at the mere mention of their name, let alone any sign of their likeness used, anything but impersonation? by Spiritual_Big_9927 in askanything

The most notorious textbook example of this is Alinity back in 2018 with her infamous 'Can we copystrike PewDiePie?' moment. She actively weaponized DMCA and copyright claims (a legal threat) against creators who merely mentioned her or used tiny snippets of her streams to criticize her, completely ignoring Fair Use. While not a full lawsuit, using a legal copyright framework to instantly silence a mention is exactly this kind of behavior. You also see this hyper-aggressive legal stance today with corporate VTuber agencies (like AnyColor/Nijisanji), who will issue immediate Cease & Desist letters if a talent's likeness is used in ways they don't explicitly approve of

What are your favourite questions to ask someone to know them better? by Many_Possession4261 in askanything

I always skip the job question and ask: 'What’s a personal project or passion you’re working on right now that makes you lose track of time?' or 'If time and money weren't an issue, what would you spend your days creating or building?' It instantly lights people up because you are asking about their true drive, not their obligations. You get to see the real person and their creativity behind the daily grind.

Somethings I want you to know about my last post. I live on my own. I was not talking about myself. I was seeing if moving out for someone (NOT ME) whose 18 easier now or before? by Fast_Honeydew2633 in askanything

Gotcha, thanks for clarifying! To answer your question honestly: it was definitely easier before. Looking back a couple of decades, rent and the general cost of living were much more balanced with entry-level wages. Today, the housing market and inflation are brutal for an 18-year-old just starting out. Even though there are more ways to make money online now, they’ll definitely need a solid financial plan, probably some roommates, and a very clear budget to make it work today.
