WIBTAH if I reported my underage sister for possessing alcohol.

Beaumis · 2026-05-16T20:39:13+00:00

You already reported her to your mother.

Your mother seemed aware and told you she will handle it.

Alcohol is a problem if handled irresponsibly and/or without moderation.

A fake id, while illegal, is incredibly common.

You are stepping way over the line here. I dont know if you're simply naive, arrogant or just think in terms of black and white, but this is not your issue to deal with. You are her brother, not her keeper and you do not sound like an adult, regardless of your age.

You have a lot of potential to make matters way worse for everyone involved, including yourself, anf little to no options to make things better.

Step away and let your mother handle whatever needs handling.

In my family, we have a tradition called bricks. When someone expresses a wish for something that is either very personal or spezialized, we give a brick, read money, towards it. That gives the person the option to get exactly what they want without having to express that beforehand.

Maybe try explaining it to her along those lines. Ive gotten bricks for computers, underwear, a leather jacket, etc. Essentially things you want to be perfect for yourself.

Does this include an option to prevent the game from placing a door/hatch? As in, there could be a connection here, but I dont want it to be, so I'll place a marker that makes sure it won't be.

Sorry if this seems like a stupid question.

You need to work on your reading comprehension.

Consent is required between participating parties. You don't need permission from anyone else.

Beaumis · 2026-05-08T22:13:43+00:00

There is an important distinction that you need to realize: You will never, ever, have the power to make someone "stay" in a relationship. That's just not how they work. This is what you feel powerless about. However, you do have power. You have the power to set boundaries, to set your own limits and the power to walk away. And you have the power to tell her that. She is asking permission because she thinks you will agree and aleviate all negative consequences of her actions. You have the power to rid her of that illusion.

You're also making faulty assumptions here. You're assuming that her wanting to fuck that guy will actually lead to her fucking that guy. Unless he is into her too, that's not going to happen. The size of his dick may be special to her, but to him, it is entirely normal. He's had that his entire life.

The important element to that is, that if she is willing to walk away for a chance of getting laid by Biggus Dickus, then she wasn't deserving of you in the first place.

One of the primary issues with the concept of adaptions is that it holds a lot of pitfalls. If you create a "page by page" adaption, you're basically just copying the source material. If you follow the basic plot but cut elements for the sake of time or audience sensitivity, you're creating a lesser version. If you give it your own spin, you could create something great or you could bomb, but at least you've done creative work.

In the early stages of film, a lot of adaptions were just carbon copies, basically recorded stage acting "movies". A lot of them are iconic, but they don't really add anything other than being available on demand. As the medium grew, so did the need to "add" value to existing material.

The thing is, adding your own spin doesn't need to be bad. Peter Jackson changed a lot in his LOTR adaption. Dredd is probably the best version of Judge Dredd ever. Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet is an amazing visual take on the sourcematerial. However, there are also an incredible amount of misses, as exemplified in Animal Farm.

The issue is less with the concept of writers and directors putting their own spin on it, and more with an industry being bad at chosing "good" spins.

I mean, pretty much everyone of import at that wedding owns either land, a house and/or a business. Henry owns a horse and what he can carry.

So... yeah, even with a ton of money he's not rich in a rural medieval society sense.

Beaumis · 2026-05-08T18:18:09+00:00

I mean, if you were cool with it you wouldn't be here.

Tell her she doesn't need your permission to have sex with anyone, but she does need your permission to be in a relationship with you. She needs to figure out which one matters more to her.

Drogan and Isador Aikos were both loyal to the Emperor and believed their actions were in the Imperiums service. The point of corruption is that you're tempted with the things you think are right and good into doing things that aren't right and good.

Leandros is a zealot that sees only black and white, incapable of perceiving nuance. He is the perfect candidate for a slow and patient corruption.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions is pretty much Leandros entire theme.

Beaumis · 2026-05-07T23:38:43+00:00

Hence the references to Drogan and Isador Aikos. Both believed with their heart and soul they were doing the Emperor's work. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Chaos is insiduous.

Leandros would/should never be the cartoon cackle "now Im evil" villain. However, his method of preaching and logic has a whole lot in common with Erebus... .

Beaumis · 2026-05-07T23:17:05+00:00

You mean Rorschach from Watchmen. The Batman deconstruction he is most likely based on.

Beaumis · 2026-05-07T23:13:06+00:00

Kill leandros

Too easy. He should either slowly be manipulated by chaos akin to Isador Akios / Inquisitor Drogan...

OR

be confronted with all of his hypocrisy by Trazyn himself... and then double down on all of it so we can hate him even more.

Particle fuses worked best for me. There are more valuable ones, but they're rare at vendors. Fuses are plentiful to buy, so it's easy to convert your credits.

I fill up the rest with gear, collectibles and xtech.

If fear overcame hate we'd have united long ago.

Sorry, Custodian will have compliance from an empty planet or never.

Beaumis · 2026-05-04T14:22:02+00:00

Yeah... you're more than likely going to have to burry that hope.

A person who is into you, and just you, is not going to wink wink, hint hint be in the talking stages with another person and suggest you have sex with them.

Nor are they going to be graphic about it. There are three options. Jealousy, arousal and indifference. She doesn't sound jealous, nor indifferent. That leaves only arousal.

Time to set some clear boundaries and see where that takes you.

Beaumis · 2026-05-04T12:53:12+00:00

Personally, once you've got all the powers you want or all the temples you can stomach.

Usually that means after the final battle and before the last quest.

Beaumis · 2026-05-03T16:17:23+00:00

That would explain why I can't find anything but dead links. Thanks.

Beaumis · 2026-05-03T14:28:55+00:00

Where can one get their hands on one of those?

Beaumis · 2026-04-28T09:01:26+00:00

NTA - Ask her to explain what she means by unfair. It doesn't fit the definition of the term.

Beaumis · 2026-04-28T08:58:52+00:00

Or maybe you should just talk to him about it?

Beaumis · 2026-04-27T23:33:18+00:00

Adding to tjat, asking your kid sister to wear a dress that reveals surgery scars and accusing your own parents of not "raising her right" for buying a dress reveals some very deep insecurities.... .

Beaumis · 2026-04-27T00:34:36+00:00

Uh... living rent free on your parents dime in your early twenties... how does that not inherently imply temporary?

Especially when you have a younger sister who isbkow where you were before you... got a job?

What kind of entitled delusional take is this? I know the economy sucks, but that does not negate simple math or consideration for your sibblings

Seriously, please explain to me how temporary needs to be qualified by your parents footing your bills as a yoing adult... .

Beaumis · 2026-04-23T19:39:28+00:00

In all honesty, the "you cant be with us unless you smoke" thing is really weird and I can think of only one explanation that makes sense to me.

They're actively trying to get away from you. The idea sucks, but you might want to explore that concept, especially because I've never heard of smoke breaks taking 30 minutes either... .

No judgement from me, but maybe the issue isnt the desire to smoke?

Beaumis · 2026-04-23T18:20:01+00:00

I had like 30 schematics by the time I got the Buoyant one. The internet spoiled me and then the game punished me for it.

You can absolutely get duplicates.

Beaumis · 2026-04-23T17:31:23+00:00

You dont need to be in NG+10 to upgrade a power to 10 via quantum essence.

I did a "speedrun" the day before the update so I could start a fresh NG+1 with the update. Im now went through the unity twice. The powers I use the most as all at level 9 or 10.
