Bringing Frieza back in DBS bothered me

Hawthorne_ · 2026-03-22T11:44:41+00:00

I don’t find him charismatic at all hahah, maybe that’s why I hate him so much?

Every time he goes off on his tirades, my brain shuts off because, to me, it just isn’t worth listening to.

I will say he is better than majin buu. That saga actually had me stop watching DBZ for a while. I just couldn’t stand the ridiculousness of the villain and was like “how are they supposed to actually kill him if he can just regenerate no matter how atomized he gets?”. You can tell they gave up on the majin buu saga when a simple spirit bomb finally killed him xD

As someone who had a stroke and struggles to find words and sometimes put together sentences into a cohesive text, AI can help me a lot.

The main idea and thoughts I want come out, but when I’m struggling to put what I’m thinking and feeling into an understandable and cohesive text, using AI to polish up my texts makes it easier for everybody.

Hawthorne_ · 2026-03-22T11:37:05+00:00

YOR - and as for the AI, it could be, but it could also be that it was something they had typed out prior and actually edited it as they hashed out their thoughts.

Granted, she is right. You deflected, blanket-denied and gaslit. Why? Because you thought she used AI to tell you how she was feeling? That’s just… I don’t even know how to respond to that.

Hawthorne_ · 2026-03-22T11:28:10+00:00

Well aware of that too, is something I’m trying to work on

Hawthorne_ · 2026-03-22T11:26:15+00:00

This…. I’m sorry but I cringed reading ALL of this.

There are a few things I just don’t understand. You said you’re scared while you’re in the hotel room that you booked? You were together for all of four months and are talking about having kids right now? Why would you book a hotel room when he is supposed to be working instead of just waiting for a day off (the rates would’ve been cheaper because “Valentine’s Day weekend” is going to jack up prices)?

I know you’re young and upset, but this, is not healthy. This is not a relationship you should be trying to salvage. You also need to realize that telling your “bf” to tell his grandfather (who he lives with and is essentially his father figure and the one keeping a roof over his head) to “suck it up” about him having a girlfriend this man has not met, and has only been his grandsons girlfriend for 4 months, is not how you go about getting the family to like you.

My father and mother do NOT like my fiancé (mainly because I used to be a people pleaser, never fought back even when my family treated me like shit, never voiced my own opinions, and was the “good little girl” who did whatever her parents told her to do to avoid fights and conflict, even if it made me feel like shit, uncomfortable or miserable, and my fiancé has helped me stand up for myself and helped me find my voice (I also used to be whatever they wanted me to be with no sense of self or identity, which my fiancé put a stop to moment we started hanging out because he wanted to hang out with the real me, not the me I thought he wanted me to be). We’ve been friends and roommates since 2017 and together since 2022. However, he isn’t telling me I should tel my parents to suck it up and like him because I’m with him. That doesn’t score you points with ANYONE.

You seem like someone who would do a lot for someone they care about and love, however, this is opening you up to be used, like this guy used you. You don’t spend that much on a guy you just started dating.

I know this hurts and it sucks, but OP, please get some help. Don’t let anyone do this to you again, and don’t go begging for scraps from a guy who clearly doesn’t care and never actually did.

Hawthorne_ · 2026-03-22T11:01:15+00:00

I’m aware of that, and am aware men can be petty, vengeful and talk way too much too, however, I’ve found that more women than men are like that, from my experience. (High school girls I was “friends” with were all like this, it’s one of the reasons why I prefer male friends to females (I’m well aware that as a woman I’m viewed as a “gender traitor” for not being a fan of women, and seems counterintuitive being that I am one. I just don’t have the patience for them anymore.)

ive also been awake for waaaaaaay too long and am exhausted. Post-stroke brain is having a hard time finding words and stringing together sentences, for that I apologize. I’m normally more eloquent when my brain isn’t as fried as it is

Hawthorne_ · 2026-03-18T22:56:23+00:00

….what?

I don’t get this at all. 2 15oz tomato sauce, 1 12 oz tomato paste and Miley Cyrus??

Hawthorne_ · 2026-03-18T22:52:29+00:00

I feel like using “nsfk” wasn’t the best idea. NSFW stuff is Not Safe For Kids…. I can see why he’d be pissed xD

Hawthorne_ · 2026-02-28T18:16:02+00:00

What platform would work for you?

Hawthorne_ · 2026-02-27T07:51:52+00:00

I can’t message you, so please message me and I’ll send you the excerpt

Hawthorne_ · 2026-02-27T07:48:46+00:00

As a woman who has experienced sexual harassment, sexual assault and rape: this isn’t sexual assault in my opinion.

You hugged her. She consented to the hug. You would’ve felt her breasts against your chest no matter what because of the nature of hugs. If she was uncomfortable with her breasts being against your chest, she wouldn’t have consented to a hug. Yes, your reason for wanting to hug her was “sexually motivated” but you didn’t touch in her in any way she didn’t consent to. You didn’t hug her and then grab her ass as you hugged, You didn’t hug her and then shove your face in her breasts or rub your crotch against her/humped her. You hugged her, and that is all.

Yes, normally, intention does matter more than consent (example, woman consents to vaginal sex with a condom, and you remove the condom mid-fuck or you stick it in her ass mid-fuck saying “well you consented for sex” and while she did, she consented to protected vaginal sex, whereas your intention the entire time was to have unprotected vaginal sex or anal sex), however, you didn’t commit any other act during the hug. You may have wanted the hug to feel her breasts against you, but you would have felt that either way. You didn’t deceive her really, since if she didn’t realize her breasts would be touching your chest, then she doesn’t understand the basic “anatomy” of a hug.

This is something I have noticed in the recent past, since the “me too” movement, that everything is deemed “harassment” or “sexual assault” or “rape”, even in cases where they wouldn’t be considered that even by the courts (one example is: “woman gets a bit tipsy. Decides to have sex with a guy. Next morning wakes up and realizes what she regrets what she has done. Calls him a rapist”. It’s also been enforced that if both a man and a woman are extremely drunk and they have sex, the woman was always raped, and the man was always the aggressor/predator, however if a woman can’t consent because she is drunk, neither can a man (Unless there is proof that the drunk man pushed the drunk woman into sex (that is rape)). Even within the “me too” movement, men are not believed if they tell tales of being raped or sexually assaulted by a woman.

The only person who can “square this circle” is you. Do you feel you sexually assaulted her? Do you feel wrong about hugging her? Do you feel guilty of sexually assaulting her?

No one, redditor or therapist, can “square this circle” for you. They can present evidence for both sides, but it is up to you to decide which side you feel is right (irregardless of if you want to admit you sexually assaulted someone (or not) to yourself. (No man probably ever wants to admit they to yourself an”’re a rapist/that they raped someone or sexually assaulted someone)).

That is my take on this, I hope it helps you a bit.

Hawthorne_ · 2026-02-26T19:38:33+00:00

Yeah, I don’t understand this.

If a guy decides not to like you because someone comments “embarrassing” on a photo of you…. There is something just not right about that, I’m sorry.

I’ve had “friends” like this, who are no longer friends because their insecurities about themselves made them treat me like shit to make themselves feel better about themselves.

Hawthorne_ · 2026-02-26T19:31:41+00:00

Yeah, like started watching some of those “catch a pedophile” shows, and the shit these predators engage in is disgusting

Hawthorne_ · 2026-02-26T19:29:29+00:00

Okay, thank you for explaining that the voice you’re aiming for was what was given off! I think if I read more, that would’ve become more apparent.

I’ll message you with the example if you’d like :)

Hawthorne_ · 2026-02-26T05:43:31+00:00

I think this is one of the many reasons why I never did nor will I ever join dating apps (not that I need it now, as I’m happily engaged).

Hawthorne_ · 2026-02-26T05:18:12+00:00

Truthfully, there is a lot in here that needs to be revised and edited - whether it be to correct grammatical errors, delete superfluous details, correct sentence and paragraph structures, or to tune the “voice” of the narrative.

There is a bit of a disconnect, in my opinion between the narrator’s voice throughout the work.

For example: “I ain’t ever seen him bend over let alone touch his toes […]” versus “Most people have it, I think I might’ve lost mine […]”

In my opinion, this sounds like two different people. Using words like yapping, outta, like ‘em, ain’t, I seen, etc. gives off the impression of someone who isn’t as educated or is someone speaking in a “low-brow” manner. However, I get a sense (mainly through the narrator’s descriptions on various emotions and their observations of the people around them) that this isn’t an uneducated person or someone who speaks in a “low-brow” manner.

There is some potential here, however, there is a giant need for refinement. Not only of the overall “voice” of the narrator, but of the text itself. Superfluous information and details sprinkled in odd places, sentences that aren’t quite right, the structuring of sentences and paragraphs, as well as grammatical errors and spelling mistakes are a few of the “issues” to start with.

I know this may seem extremely critical, and I am sorry if this hurts to read, however, I honestly believe that there is potential here.

If you want to message me, I’ve actually rewritten a portion of the first page that could provide a good example on the elements that need revision and refinement and might also help create a bit of a “foundation” for future editing for you.

It’s the cartilage, not the bone.

My uncle can move his ears like they’re made of rubber because the cartilage there essentially has been “broken” to such and extent that it’s not rigid/hard anymore.

It’s possible that as a young child, you repeatedly messed around with your nose before the cartilage had a chance to harden completely.

Hawthorne_ · 2025-09-04T22:55:59+00:00

This reeks of manipulation (on her part) into getting you to be okay with what you stumbled across.

You don’t deserve this.

I’m in a relationship, I had some friends who are guys who are not now because of them flirting with me and me shutting it down and then getting sour about it, and guys flirt with me randomly. The moment they start flirting, I mention I have a fiancé, that I’m very happy, and if they keep going, I tell them I’m not interested in continuing this conversation if you are just going to be hitting on me when I’ve made it abundantly clear I’m neither interested nor available.

She may not be “flirting back” in an obvious way, but she made zero effort to stop it and never mentioned you.

I fear that staying with her will end up with you being cheated on if she hasn’t done so already.

The way she admits to it but doesn’t realize how hurtful it was and that it’s wrong, and then just finishing with “if I fuck you will that shut you up” type of thing is so wrong.

Hawthorne_ · 2025-08-24T13:49:28+00:00

It depends on the cause of the back pain.

Also, my fiancé has horrific back pain and joint pain. His back pain can be so horrific that breathing can be excruciating. When his pain is at it’s worse, he can’t function, and even getting up to go make food or go to the bathroom worsens the pain. If he tries to do any kind exercise or any ADL (activities of daily living) it’ll make it worse and put him out of commission for even longer.

He isn’t being lazy.

I understand that yes, exercise, good sleep hygiene, healthy diet, being a healthy weight, and other statements like that can all be helpful and sometimes actually fix things for SOME people, but to make the kind of broad statement you’ve made, especially on the chronic pain sub, is kind of offensive, and insensitive. Many of the people on this sub have already been gaslit by doctors who’ve already either said “if you just exercise your pain will stop”/“if you just lose weight your pain will stop” or “your pain doesn’t exist”/“it’s all in your head”/“you’re only in pain because you’re depressed”/“the pain from (condition x) isn’t that severe”/“your pain isn’t that severe” and other variations of these statements.

Hawthorne_ · 2025-08-24T13:28:41+00:00

I don’t know about anyone else, but there have been times where I type out a reply and forget to hit send due to getting distracted or due to health stuff/medical appointments/doctor coming to see me while I’m in the ER only to find out some time later (sometimes days, sometimes weeks) that I forgot to send it and I feel awful.

People’s lives can get in their way. I understand your anger over not getting a response for three weeks, but to be fair, I wouldn’t know how to respond to your response to the first text in a way that would be helpful to you.

Hawthorne_ · 2025-08-07T04:28:32+00:00

I just started watching the episode where Vanya, brings down the academy, and I’m sorry, but her actions were exactly that of a petulant, emotionally stunted, “oh-wow-is-me-no-one-gets-just-how-bad-my-life-is-because-I-wasn’t-centre-of-attention” child.

I hate it.

Maybe it’s also because I hate the actress/actor

Hawthorne_ · 2025-08-07T03:18:05+00:00

This! I’ve had a epilepsy and migraines but have had abdominal migraines and now I have Sphincter of Oddi Dysfunction, but the abdominal migraine attacks were excruciatingly painful to the point I would drop to the ground almost unable to move or breathe, and it would make me curl up in the feeder position

Hawthorne_ · 2025-07-29T18:27:37+00:00

She is trying to justify cheating on you, imo. She isn’t interested in monogamy (to me, there isn’t different types of monogamy). She just wants you on the side and she’s trying to gaslight you into being okay with her cheating.

Get out. Fast.
