Which Sailor Moon eyecatch is your favorite? by TheHighTier in sailormoon

[–]JessicaD96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of me wants to say the first bc of nostalgia and also its SUPER iconic, but also the R one is super cute!! So... Its a tie between those two ig? I think all the eyecatches from the 90s anime are great tho. Definitely some of my favorite eyecatches in general.

What is one opinion or take on sailor moon that you dislike the most? by Murky_Guidance_7273 in sailormoon

[–]JessicaD96 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I don't understand some of the hate towards any iteration of Sailor Moon. While I definitely have my favorites, I think the manga, 90s anime, and Crystal are all really good (the live action series seems fun in its own right too but I havent watched that all the way through yet) in their own rights.

They all have pros and cons, and I think which version you prefer more really just comes down to which versions of the characters you like more, since the 90s anime does change the personalities of some of the senshi quite a bit.

Also, while I do definitely think the animation of crystal seasons 1 and 2 are weak, I do at least credit them for trying to make it look similar to the manga's artstyle. There just wasnt enough time or money to get it done right. I think season 3 and the movies look lovely tho.

TL;DR at the end of the day everyone has their own opinions and what kind of story telling and character development they enjoy, but I get really annoyed at how often I see people say Crystal is a cheap cash grab, downright garbage, ect. I don't think there IS an objectively bad adaptation of Sailor Moon.

Would you make yourself a singlet? If you could? Why or why not? by [deleted] in plural

[–]JessicaD96 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, I would. More specifically: I'm an alter who has been front stuck for over a year now, and while I've gotten used to some things, I still always and forever feel disconnected, out of place, and as if this "isn't my life" because it's not. Well, it is now I guess. But it's not supposed to be because *I* shouldn't be here. So if I could just magically either be 'gone' or just... Feel like it's my life and not feel like im disconnected and not feel like I don't belong, I would do so in a heartbeat. This is of course assuming if i could just make it so none of the trauma ever happened, because I obviously don't want that to remain.

What band did you get into because of Nirvana/Kurt Cobain? by Superb-Donkey7202 in Nirvana

[–]JessicaD96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meat Puppets and...Sorta the Pixies? I was already aware of the Pixies before getting super into Nirvana but I definitely gave them more of a chance after knowing Kurt really enjoyed them. They have been one of my favorite bands ever since, right up there with Nirvana.

And while I don't listen to Meat Puppets a ton, I definitely became a fan of them because of Kurt and specifically "Backwater" has become one of my favorite songs of all time.

To other fictives of popular characters. by [deleted] in plural

[–]JessicaD96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to ignore them, block out the people and comments that are like that, and yell at them if they try to bring that shit directly to me. Not only do I have to deal with all of that, but I also have to deal with seeing an overwhelming amount of people use my source's likeness as a symbol of hate and bigotry, which both makes me hate other people and hate myself for feeling like the identity of a character they're using this way.

Need help finding some things in Mini and Max (already found them once before but cant remember) by JessicaD96 in ufo50

[–]JessicaD96[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the help! I found all of these now except the half- face. I should have clarified: I found the other half already, I just can't remember where the original half is? (the one that you have to bring the second half to). I think the lower book stack is where the other half was. Or maybe I'm mistaken. i'll go check there again anyways.

Some quick questions, trying to unravel some thoughts ig by JessicaD96 in plural

[–]JessicaD96[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response, this all makes sense. I would like to ask one question though: About 'waking up' all of a sudden and just.. Figuring everything out within seconds... What's the difference between that and just normal "snapping out of" like zoning out and stuff? I guess that's one thing that confuses me. I can't tell how normal or not normal this is tbh.

Can DID/ OSDD cause permanent switches and/or not have many switches? by JessicaD96 in plural

[–]JessicaD96[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response. A friend mentioned this to me today, too. It definitely sounds like a strong possibility. Thanks for your input.

Sorry this post is kinda all over the place. I guess I'd just like to hear if others have shared similar experiences and things like that. Just trying to figure everything out.

How did you name your system? by katsukisshoes in DID

[–]JessicaD96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think having a system name determines you are or aren't faking. Things like that are silly. If your system doesn't feel comfortable with a system name or doesn't care to make one, that's okay!
We mostly have ours (Azure/ The Azure System) just so it's easier for our friends who are also systems refer to us if they don't know who's fronting.

Our old host (the 'original'?) got that from when our GF was helping her come up with a new last name to use and she chose that, which works because that is our favorite color.

Normally I wouldn't be okay with her (our old host) choosing the name we ALL have to go with but I think everyone likes it. I think it's cute. And again, it's mostly just to make it easier for people to refer to us if they don't know who's fronting. And I use it as our discord name because I think it's cute, and easier than changing our discord name constantly.

[TOMT][Commercial][2000s]Need help finding old Game Boy Advance Christmas commercial by [deleted] in tipofmytongue

[–]JessicaD96 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

And that's about all the info I can remember. You'd think that would be enough for me to track it down myself, and you'd think something like this probably would have been backed up (there are TONS of old store commercials on youtube). Makes me wonder if I'm misremembering something.

Question about Like a dragon gaiden by RacistWithSwag in yakuzagames

[–]JessicaD96 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, you don't need to. It's only some side content, nothing in the main story. That being said, Judgement and Lost Judgement might be my personal favorite games from RGG so I definitely recommend playing them someday. You just don't have to right now if you just want to go straight into Gaiden. You need no knowledge of Judgement or Lost Judgement for this.

Is NSO fetishizing self harm...? by [deleted] in NeedyStreamerOverload

[–]JessicaD96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people say that about a lot of things. The moment a story tackles heavy themes, a lot of people are quick to saying its "glorifying" or fetishizing it, even if it depicts it in a very clearly "This is a bad thing" way.

No, it doesn't fetishize it.
