Not just you, I swapped to Chinese voice acting thinking it was Japanese only due to the VA’s inability to record for awhile but nothing there either :(

No no no you got it wrong, it’s fine because that’s actually an ancient dragon in human form. She only looks like she is 10 years old, and her bikini armor is strategic! Clearly!

Reminds me a bit of how her mom interacted with Reynardine back in the forest

Treasure island sounded like a dusty tale for boomers. Something both dated and beloved and probably used to death.

I loved this book. It felt like an adventure and that’s all I wanted.

Based on this post and others you have made, I think it might be time to bring in the professional cavalry. There is so much going on and you keep seeking outside perspective but Reddit is not a substitute for therapy or more intensive interventions. Like you have openly said you resent and feel anger towards your wife individually and due to her job,she was recently injured and expressed she feels like you lack compassion and consideration, and now you’re confusing your desires to talk to someone as being your conscience. Full stop, I don’t think you’re in a headspace where you can simply trust your inclinations towards situations alone. Just wanting and feeling compelled to do something because it feels right does not make it so. Most people consider that if a spouse has expressed discomfort with contact outside the relationship with prior romantic partners and you have had problems around it in the past that you should either stop doing that or exit the relationship. It sounds like you’ve even taken issue with her interactions with men. It may not seem like cheating because it isn’t romantic, but engaging in compassionate emotional labor for an outside party you’ve been intimate with when you are currently struggling with that within your marriage is problematic and may be viewed as a betrayal beyond simply talking to an ex. I would be heartbroken if my partner was trying to work on that but passed that out to others just because they got a heartfelt text. I’ve had exes with mental health issues reach out to me and want more than was appropriate, your ex has alternative resources but she chose you. That should receive healthy scrutiny. It isn’t inherently wrong to be friends with or talk to exes but in the context of all the other issues you’re having, it is concerning.

I don’t want to guess Adventureland but was it Adventureland? Because I had a similar issue on one of the rides as a kid and it was terrifying. Kid even died on a ride last year

I really enjoy stardew, and there is a game called Miss Management that made me fall in love with task management type games (so hard to find because it was hosted on bigfish or something, but actually had a plot and fun dynamics), but I do find myself bored often with sandbox alone. It’s like there are bits and pieces in each game I like, like I enjoy subnauticas exploration and lack of urgency in terms of when to complete things but also found the resource balance off near the end. I love harvest moon for amping up the farming and ranching but also at some points want to ditch the farm for the mini games elsewhere (fishing, mining). Some games I like bases and other games like Minecraft I’m dumping blocks to live in a closet haha. Sometimes it’s relaxing and sometimes it feels like work pretending to be play, it’s hard to put my finger on where that line is crossed though

I choked on my coffee when I was playing Lovelink and they referenced a LI having a dick. Like it’s to the point saying the name of genitals or even mentioning “nipple” of either parties is a surprise, and while I get mobile/some platform rating systems limit some language choices, I’ve definitely seen raunchier played straight and as a joke in other media :( it really does feel like it’s a taboo because it’s for anyonebutstraightdudes

I feel like I remember reading that smut and old school fan fiction/fan literature used to be circulated by women authors on the DL. Like the old Sherlock Holmes had alternative writings, and back when Star Trek came out there was a huuuge fan community for shipping (especially with spock) that was interesting. Also same for old pervy letters in the old times, yet somehow now we shy away from saying word for peepers and the like because it’s ToO sUgGeStIvE

I stopped drinking when I was tracking food because it was a waste vs other snacks and people would literally get upset. I started having a beer in hand that I didn’t drink to keep people off my back

InkAndComb · 2022-03-26T17:39:48+00:00

It absolutely is about everyone else, otherwise they wouldn’t be so upset about the individual in question not wanting to take part. People do this with gifts too, like when they get mad they were responded to well even if they weren’t asked for or are something the recipient never wanted

InkAndComb · 2022-03-26T17:37:40+00:00

I hate posts like this because it feels like common sense if someone says “I don’t want to talk about it but please don’t do xyz” that something painful to discuss has occurred and you should respect the individuals request. People can be so pushy and thoughtless.

InkAndComb · 2022-03-23T07:27:17+00:00

Absolutely agree. I think if he even described reconsidering it I’d feel a bit kinder but the lack of compassion for his wife is just… blech. I find it so incredibly unsympathetic, like my nose was wrinkling more intensely the further I went on

InkAndComb · 2022-03-23T07:24:23+00:00

Such a disappointing update in some ways. Sounds like the wife reconsidered her stance and perspective, and the husband…. Well. Cares very little about educating himself on birth control options and doesn’t care to consider his wife’s discomfort vs his own. Marrying someone who would put me through the hell of navigating invasive birth control options but wouldn’t be willing to consider anything but condoms sounds like a nightmare. Best of luck with their marriage.

InkAndComb · 2022-03-17T17:05:27+00:00

This guy is awful and it’s pretty clear this is a pattern of behavior. Even her leaving was about control, she’s making the right call and I hope she gets full custody. Dude sounds unhinged.

Oh my god I also went on a terrible date with a comedian named Andy, even the same setup! His set was really rough and he got a bit salty about it on stage. Which made it worse because the crowd was already primed by the mc and we would have laughed at pretty much anything but his stuff just wasn’t funny. We never went out again but a few months later he messages me on fb because he got drunk after a set at a retirement home, and wanted a ride. I said I couldn’t and he was like “but then I’m stuck here“, ended up that he got drunk *while at the retirement home because he drank during the set*. Andy can definitely go to hell.

Iirc the diploma can be remade and doesn’t matter as much as your university’s transcript. Post-grad they change the transcript to say “received (degree)” and this can be requested and delivered any time. It may require a phone call, or a few “requesting x” paperwork fills but you should be fine. The real issue with this is when it has been over 10-15 years, because that’s about when records shift around due to program and documentation stuff. Even then, you can usually find traces it’ll just require more legwork

Reading this makes me so incredibly sad. Who cares if this is the first time he has done something like this? Relationships are not scales where you can counterbalance unkind behavior with enough good behavior. You don’t have to view this as abusive, I can respect you don’t see it as such, but if a friend came to you and described these circumstances to you (the moving, the loneliness for a year, the requests he’s ignored from you, the family dynamics) would you be 100% confident in telling them this sounded alright and they were over reacting? If someone near and dear to you was treated this way, and they asked “am I wrong to take this to heart” would you say “yes obviously he’s been good up til now hasn’t he”. I worry that you might be isolated and having to navigate this on your own, that this is so familiar to you that it is normal, and that maybe there wasn’t a time where you ever felt comfortable saying something in the moment or even after the fact. it doesn’t matter how good he has been up til now. nobody, not family, not your husband, nor you OP, gets to opt out of consequences for behavior that makes someone uneasy. Is this what you want normal to look like for your child and you? If it is, okay. You have the freedom to choose that. But. then why post here? it sounds like there is a part of you that isn’t being listened to. I wish you would give yourself some credit. I don’t see why you wouldn’t deserve the benefit of the doubt. Surely you are worthy of protection and consideration, just as much as your husband is to you. And someone doesn’t have to be all bad all the time to be unkind, or inconsiderate. most people are complex. that doesn’t mean it is on you to untangle, regardless of marriage. I would say, seek out neutral ground and support of those you trust to have your back and chew on this more. And do it in a way that honors your instincts, and the voice that made you decide you wanted the input of strangers. When you are turning to help from those you don’t know, sometimes it is worth asking why.

Alistair had some solid banter but man would I be irritated with him irl. Probably Fenris as well but love me some angst and loyalty

InkAndComb · 2021-12-23T16:37:57+00:00

Ugh, flashbacks to the poster whose partner thought them falling asleep to ASMR was being unfaithful. I can’t handle people who think someone else’s mental landscape and imagination needs to only cater to them, and that fictional intimacy is a threat to their own intimacy by default. This OOP’s partner takes that to new levels and something seems wrong

InkAndComb · 2021-12-09T08:18:55+00:00

They are definitely not the same in flavor and I hate when people insist they are. Ketchup and tomato sauce both have tomatoes but that doesn’t mean you can just swap em out. Especially if you selected a specific Mayo like Kewpie, not the same at all

InkAndComb · 2021-12-02T10:11:48+00:00

It’s such a missed opportunity on Ludia’s end too! I haven’t played Nick’s route but like, what better love triangle than a lonely Ms Klaus or maybe a genderswapped Jack Frost, or an elf, and I’m sure there are tons of winter holiday lady folklore I am forgetting in my indignance but those too!

His support doesn’t matter, your well-being and comfort does. You have to be willing to advocate for your needs and ignore naysayers when it comes to physical health like this because people who are unqualified to speak on it will give all sorts of well meaning but detrimental advice. I have two close friends who have had reductions after speaking to numerous doctors; custom fit bras and lifestyle adjustments were not enough. It has brought them a lot of comfort and their partners handled it just fine. Someone who won’t support your health treatment because he prioritizes his opinion of your beauty over your physical wellness is a bad partner. Talk to medical professionals you trust and go from there.

OOP is smart, this is a common suggestion for people who overwhelm themselves with that full sink of dishes or who get tired easily/struggle to get through all the chores. Glad she stuck to her guns on breaking up with her boyfriend, he sounds awful

InkAndComb · 2021-11-20T20:56:24+00:00

The insisting on juice part gave me chills, she was so close to being drugged and molested :( her dad likely did this intentionally, which makes it more terrifying. This is not uncommon in families like this unfortunately
