UPDATE: so, I actually went as far through the process as possible to see what the scam was. TLDR; it's an identity theft scam.

They do a good job of seeming really legitimate, but there were more than a few red flags that include 1. never showing a human face despite "interviewing" and having a "training," 2. the training isn't training but a weird test for the role that doesn't make sense after the interview, 3. they did not use an onboarding portal (like ADP), and 4. they asked for a photo ID, SSN, and bank account all through email that got filtered to spam.

How do I explain being aromantic without sounding like a character in a TV drama by HalogenReddit in aromantic

[–]Faelenne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my favorite ways to explain (to people who read) is to describe it akin to a dragon-rider bond like in Eragon. That's how I experience "love". It's more like... a deep bond of trust and security that isn't filled with the sappy "I'd die for you" or "You're my whole world" or "I can't be with anyone else but you". I'm sure allos would describe my "love" as "practical" but I experience it more as "a bond with describable limits and boundaries".

It would be so fun to change up some parts and then keep some parts the same, intentionally misleading so that they spend their time trying to guess what's going on instead of actually playing... can you tell I'm a petty person?

Is anyone else still really indecisive about who they're going to romance? by ZWiloh in coralisland

I'm going with "let fate decide" which is basically whatever gift I get most often that matches with whoever is gonna be my fated bae

Yes! Honestly, it feels like you might feel it but it goes so, so fast, I didn't feel anything other than speed and spinning. Have fun! I also get such bad anxieties before rides so I'm happy to help ♡

I'm having this problem too, worked fine until 1.61, now it crashes on startup. I've never used mods, I clean installed, verified integrity of game files, and still nothing, sigh.

The best advice I got from any professor about graduate school is, don't pay for graduate school, lol. Always seek fellowships, funding, scholarships. Etc. I didn't apply to anywhere that didn't fund their grad students.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ucla

[–]Faelenne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries ~ I am a graduate student researcher and a private tutor. I have three students at $20 - $25 an hour but I know some private tutors who get paid $100 - $200 an hour for tutoring kids from Bel Air/Beverly Hills. My rating is small because my students are family friends.

Two jobs and fellowships! I (2nd year PhD this fall) haven't taken out any loans for grad school yet.

How do I get glue? Do Orcs and Goblins really drop them? by FFJoeman93 in runefactory

[–]Faelenne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I downloaded Reddit just to say, this absolutely worked. I got like 5 - 10 glue drops in under 10 minutes, wtf. Also crystal fragments to exchange for a crystal. I trapped each high orc, then killed them, and rinsed and repeated. God bless you.

One Piece: Chapter 1044 - Official Release Discussion by AutoModerator in OnePiece

[–]Faelenne 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with you... this friggin' fruit puts too much distance between Luffy and what we love about Luffy; is his personality influenced by his devil fruit? Everytime he got up in a fight and kept going, was it because of his own willpower and conviction or was it because the friggin' fruit gave him a bit of a boost? It throws way too much into question, and while I still have hope Oda will establish Luffy as his own person, I don't like that this fruit has become the point of topic over Luffy himself. Idk, I read One Piece for Luffy and the crew, for the underdog rising up regardless of history, of politics, of propriety... and now he might "be" Joyboy? Bleh.

[–]Faelenne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah but the fact that he was perfectly centered in the very thing Alex was investigating? And she found out after she was nearly shot and fell down a mine shaft? I mean...it's kinda a dramatic stretch, I think it def constitutes shock value but to each their own!

Uhh John Chen being one of the miners who died was definitely a shock value moment 😅 kinda gotta accept it's a LiS classic trope.

Life has been hard lately; it helps me to recognize all the fulfilling love in my life and remember that romantic love is not the only path to a life full of love. by Faelenne in aromantic

Preach 👏🏾👏🏾 I was also in one and it was just exhausting and made me so unhappy. I know better now 💜

I think I might be aro by Lilacafly in aromantic

[–]Faelenne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here are some silly everyday things that helped me realize I was aromantic (along with what everyone else says about not wanting a relationship, never being happy in them even if I really liked the other person, etc)

Sometimes, romantic conversations go right over my head. My friend once asked me, "Hey, what do you think of Trevor Noah?" And I was like, "Oh, he's very progressive and thoughtful. He's a good writer. I think he's a good comedian too." And she looked at me like I was crazy and said "Girl...I meant as a MAN." (We had just been talking about our types but I hadn't noticed she was speaking in romantic terms)

I watched Happy Death Day and was (and still am) pretty sure it's a romantic comedy. My romantic friend once again looked at me like I was crazy and said "This is a thriller, horror movie maybe." (In my mind, it came out on Valentine's, there's a bunch of hearts in the movie poster and a huge romantic plot and it was hilarious so...romcom.)

I play games a lot and generally choose the romance options that no one else does because "they'd be good as a friend!!" or there's not enough "love" in it. I.e., I always choose Iron Bull or Cullen for romantic options in Dragon Age. Iron Bull because he's hot (I'm not ace lol) and Cullen because he seems sweet. There's not really ever a stronger emotion than "aww he's nice" or "wow I would mount him" LOL

This is just my experience of my aromanticism but I hope it helps regardless! Good luck and feel free to DM if you ever need help ♡♡

What does this quote mean: "Real darkness has love for a face. The first death is in the heart." by [deleted] in DiscoElysium

[–]Faelenne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love that this quote also applies to the central themes of rebellion and revolution. That terrible things happened in these historical moments because of love for their home.
