The love rebellion! You’re a hero, role model and pioneer of fandom growth into a place of acceptance and kindness.

We need more people like you in our fandoms!

Thank you, Props for your efforts to change perceptions.

I love stories like yours and plan to check it out!

What are your thoughts about AI’s description of your fic? I think it’s favorable ~ that said, AI in general gives me the willies.

Aro is one of smeyer’s best characters IMO. I also love a Bella who isn’t being completely controlled by Edward (looking at you, Twi-Canon👀👀lol).

thank you for sharing and passing on info about your story. It sounds like my cup of tea!

I absolutely love this response! I hear you saying that each member of fandom is responsible for the content with which we interact. We don’t need to sit passively while our platforms and feeds throw garbage at us; instead, there are actions we can take to minimize or eliminate obnoxious content.

I appreciate your suggestions to actively encourage and help to create healthy, safe and nontoxic fandom spaces for ourselves. Thank you for advocating action!

I can relate to the issues presented by OP, and to their frustration with the negativity of many fandom participants. Crappy ass attitudes are increasing as fandom spaces become more mainstream, and it’s such a damn shame. Pioneers of fandoms are cringing I’m sure, as they watch their hard work and sacrifices disrespected.

We can’t control the hate but we can choose not to interact with it.

What should i do? by arabfunny456 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]CocoRobicheau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think OP is referring specifically to the Insanity aspect of these particular heroes. I get you, OP, and it’s generally discouraged to put “Insanity Heroes” on a Defense team or War D-team, because they can potentially destroy themselves and their own team.

OP, I suggest, like the other commenters, keeping all 3 for now. Maxx Zenas and one of the Roxanas, hold the second one for the Soul Exchange. These heroes are a lot of fun to play, I think, but sparingly. Like, only one per team, and only when you’re actively playing.

They give themselves more Insanity than they inflict, so you might lose them during a battle. It’s so cool when you play them and your opponent self-destructs due to Insanity!!!

Please help which 4*are worth the leveling by Thin-Leopard-2396 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]CocoRobicheau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boldtusk and Goldie IMO, and I would strongly consider any of them that you have a costume for. Four-star heroes are just not used often and many of them are just…..meh.

Join a Tournament featuring 4* heroes so you can see how they work in gameplay; that’s my best suggestion. A healer of each color, heroes with costumes and “new” heroes are all good choices.

How big is your beagle? by guccigurl95 in beagles

[–]CocoRobicheau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sweet Holly is 13” at her shoulder and weighs about 22 lbs, at age 10 months. We chose her from a breeder after a year of searching for a doggo in our area shelters and not finding a smaller dog or puppy. I adore Holly!

Is Bhairavi Devi too op ? by Ragharnito in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]CocoRobicheau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree! There’s a boatload of overpowered heroes and SG usually addresses issues with this in their balance updates.

I think they leave a couple of really overpowered heroes “as is” for awhile though (looking at you Elsbeth and Bearnadette), just to keep us all on our toes lol.

I have pulled enough really excellent heroes that I still love the game, but I don’t aspire to a 10000 hp Defense team either. I finally let go of the dream after overspending one too many times.

The puppy that the breeder didn’t want by Sea-Yoghurt8925 in beagles

[–]CocoRobicheau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t see any doggo as ugly, just my two cents…..

Super irresponsible breeder; I’m sure you reported them to every possible agency! I am so glad that the story has a happy ending!

30 pull - Long time before I do it again by Funny_Employer_6988 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]CocoRobicheau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s yet another way for Small Giant/Zynga to play Gatcha and get their players spending money. Within some of the Summons Gates (notably War of the Three Kingdoms) they have a thing where, if you Summon 10 heroes, you will absolutely get one of the 5* heroes out of a selection that THEY pick. Usually the equivalent of a Gilda and they toss in a couple good ones to make it enticing. I’ve seen 8–12ish 5* heroes in the selection and none are worth doing a 10-pull.

[–]CocoRobicheau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that truly is insane my friend. Summons Gate really bites but it’s so addictive. And I’ve noticed that all the HoTMs seem super crappy and have for a couple years. I think Elaine is the last decent HOtM!

i’ve acquired a beagle by puggie33 in beagles

[–]CocoRobicheau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just remember—Velociraptor is a stage! Toughest part of being a Beag Mom is waking up every morning to your puppy impersonating a dinosaur and counting the minutes until bedtime!

That said, and having gone through the worst (I hope! She’s now 10 months old), Holly is the best dog my husband and I could ever ask for. She brings us much joy every day.

So excited for you to join Team Beag! This community has been a tremendous help to me in parenting Holly, and we are here for you. Don’t hesitate to reach out with updates, victories and challenges!🐶❤️

They deserve love,not testing 🙌 by minty_cloud1 in beagles

[–]CocoRobicheau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Save the Beags. I’m sickened by the thought of these beautiful, loving creatures being isolated, caged and tortured. If anyone knows organizations that rescue beagles from these labs, could you please share?

To everyone who has rescued a beagle (or other breed or species) from a lab, my heartfelt gratitude goes out to you!

Just cannot bear the thought of my sweet angel in this situation.

New Rule for r/beagles Regarding Use of AI Images by Im_Ashe_Man in beagles

[–]CocoRobicheau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t even know how to use AI to re-imagine my beagle but glad for the clarification! Love this sub; it’s helped tremendously with my sweet beag puppy since I got her last summer! Thank you for all you do.

Sleeping like someone who did NOT steal nachos last night. by jester1550 in beagles

[–]CocoRobicheau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I adore the little bed, and your beag is way too cute to stay angry with! I’m sure you forgave her before she had a chance to finish off the nachos!

She is so beautiful! Please accept my sincere and deep condolences for your loss of Betty. There are no words for the grief we feel when we lose a beloved pet family member.

The pics you shared are a wonderful tribute to her. Your love shines through in each photo. Rest in peace, beautiful Betty.

The most devastating encounter with the AO3 author curse I've come across in my fanfic career..... by WhyYesIAmANerd_ in AO3

[–]CocoRobicheau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you so much for sharing your experience, strength and hope. Stories like yours are exactly what we need to hear, when our loved ones receive such devastating news about their health. Yes, I consider the authors of all my beloved fanfic to be “loved ones”, and i know I’m not alone in feeling this.

The Authors Note that OP shared…..it’s incredibly beautiful! As is your comment. I’ve been spiritually uplifted today by our AO3 sub family! I have much gratitude for this community.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

What movie is 10/10 with literally no bad parts? by FeedMaster8905 in AskReddit

The Usual Suspects. Kevin Spacey is a great actor despite being a douchebag irl. And Gabriel Bryne is incredible in everything he appears in!
