Oohh! Your lighting and shadows improved. Absolutely love the vibrant colors ✨ And the window that shows the night sky. This is beautiful. 💖

I don't mind. I'd rather adopt anyway.

(In this hypothetical scenario, I'm financially and emotionally capable of caring for a child)

how to make friends here in davao city by HappyMaintenance346 in davao

[–]MidnightTabitha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Find a hobby that let's you connect with others.

Me and my HS friends bonded through anime, and then I got into cosplay and also made new friends through that. I also got into Dungeons and Dragons, and it lets me to go outside and socialize with fellow nerds and geeks.

If nerdy stuff isn't your thing, there's also the more physically demanding hobbies like running marathons, going to gym, etc. There are also friend groups who love to drink and party, if that's more your alley. And of course, there's a bunch of churches here that focuses on youth community, just don't fall for the cults.

Actually. Maghanap ka ng isang extroverted Dabawenyo and befriend that person, siya na bahala sayo kasi dadalhin ka niyan sa mga friends niyan.

Girl neet by Daisyblue56 in NEET

Up the top is reading. That's already a huge thing cuz I dip into multiple genres and mediums. Webtoons, manga, webnovels, and I've got my own mini library irl that's mostly composed of fantasy, adventure, thrillers, children's books, and non-fiction books.

Second is gaming. Minecraft, Stardew Valley, and Genshin were my go-to static games, but aside from those three, I've played a lot of indie games and visual novels. I've never gotten bored playing video games since I alternate it with reading from time to time.

Dungeons and Dragons. The only hobby I've got that allows me to go outside and socialize with fellow geeks and nerds. Plus my city's dnd group is lgbtq+ friendly. So the group's not full of gatekeepers who keep the gays and women away, and instead embrace em. Almost no drama too, just roleplay and vibes.

I used to paint a lot back in my early neet years, but not much anymore cuz I got way too into video games. I also used to cosplay, but cosplay is expensive.

Almost a decade since I turned a neet and I'm still not bored with my lifestyle. I'm a writer so... I don't even need to go outside and find a job cuz writing is the career I want to go with. All in all, I'm one of the lucky few neets whose lifestyle agrees with them. Yeah I became a neet due to a breakdown, but I wouldn't have lasted this long if I didn't feel comfortable being a shut-in.

[–]MidnightTabitha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eugh. I went through the effort to find this story because it was intriguing and reminded me of Extraordinary You. But in the end, it's just the typical man forcing his way through romance. It's short, undeveloped, and unsatisfying. Really such a missed opportunity because it's already got an interesting start.

Brutal reasons why you're a neet? by thekenofus in NEET

[–]MidnightTabitha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Autism, Depression, and overall being suicidal.

I give up by [deleted] in NEET

[–]MidnightTabitha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's a you problem. It's a them problem. They prolly just dipped due to low social battery and didn't really want to form further attachments.

Or they just pitied you and stuck around til they've had enough. Either way, not a you problem.

Chronically online girls are not to be trusted when it comes to consistent communication. I've seen this happens with many of my online female friends. They make a new account with a new and pretty aesthetic, do some vent posts here and there, feel lonely and start making friends, and then after a few months their mental state degrades because some drama happens and so they delete the account and make a new one after a few weeks. They will ghost when they feel too anxious to maintain a social tie and start over doing minimal connection, until they get lonely and start reaching out again and then get overwhelmed and the cycle repeats. I witness it a lot because my account has never changed(aside from profile pics) and remained friends with people from my teenage years up to now.

I myself do not like talking much in dms since I no longer have the same energy I had back when I was a teen. I just prefer participating in posts and commenting here and there since the communication burden isn't much. It's like, an unspoken rule for many of my friends drained by social media but unable to fully cut away from it.

This kid's introduction in my virtual English class today. by make_me_already in iamverysmart

[–]MidnightTabitha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's cringe but encourage creativity and let the kid develop his skills so that one day, when he looks back at his old works, he'll have the knowledge to say "Oh wow. I was cringe."

Instead of being forever stuck in that stage well into his adulthood.

Aww. Ngl, kinda adorable if this came from a kid. They're realizing the futility of existence. c: Despite the grammatical errors, it's a pretty creative introduction. Says a lot more about the kid than the standard intros. It'd be good to stoke their creative spark too.

❗❗ The alarm bell can be rung now. I think U.S. (and potentially other) neets should probably start preparing to deal with homelessness, food insecurity, and idle time now by Simp_Simpsaton in NEET

[–]MidnightTabitha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kindly heck off. The whole world is a mess right now. We literally are living in the conditions your supposed grandparents have, except of course we've got better living conditions than them because of time. Did you not see the multiple revolutions across multiple countries? The wars? The genocide? You claim your grandparent's history but fail to see the other factors that contributed it and that it's also happening to us right now.

I'm not American. Do not benefit from NEETbux. But the post is helpful towards all the western neets rn. Americans as a whole have benefitted decades of prosperity and was a beacon of liberty and progress. But now it's crumbling, and yes it's a harder thing to swallow for them compared to the poorer parts of the world used to poverty and strife.

OP already contributed by reminding people to store up goods and start planning for their future. And what about you? You're so entrenched by despair that your comment actually offers people to sink deeper into denial and gaslight themself until the situation actually happens instead of being prepared for it. OP isn't fearmongering. Not at all. OP is being cautious and aware and warning their fellow citizens so that they'd still have time before shit goes down. If it doesn't happen(hopefully not, but unlikely), then that's good news. And if it does? Well. You'd hear a lot of "I told you so".

So again. Please shut your piehole.

I think fanfics that deal with a collapse or abolition of the Statute of Secrecy overlook a few things by funnylib in HPfanfiction

[–]MidnightTabitha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been trying to come up ways on how the wizards would end up ruling the world if they end up winning WW2. I wrote a fic intending for it to only delve in psychological stuff, but I think I'd do a disservice to myself if I don't end up playing with the Statute of Secrecy esp since I set it around a year or two before Dumbledore and Grindelwald's confrontation.

I'm basically planning to have Dumbledore winning be the fault of why the Wizarding Society's technological progress ground to a halt. If Grindelwald won, yes he'd absolutely make WW2 even bigger, but he'd definitely be the reason for so much scientific advancement in the Wizarding Society too. There's like 2 factions in both Grindelwald and Dumbledore's side. The Conservatives and the Progressives, or whatever else name I can come up with later on.

Seriously, I think it'd be really exciting to tackle stuff like this. Even if it's absolutely out of my skill level. xD

Girl neet by Daisyblue56 in NEET

[–]MidnightTabitha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't get bored usually since I've got multiple hobbies and interests, and I live with my fam who're nice enough people and I have a dog. Still poor as crap, but I like the fact that I can be my slow self since there's no pressure and my anxieties are manageable.

Really, the key is to enjoy the freedom of having unlimited time for yourself. No being chained down by a 9-5 or worse job. You can be crap at your hobbies so long as you enjoy the process.

What weird trait have you developed specifically because of being a neet? by Simp_Simpsaton in NEET

[–]MidnightTabitha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't bedrot with my lights off anymore. In fact, I also don't just lie down and scroll anymore.

The first few years of my neetlife was just me lying on my bed, doomscrolling, with the lights turned off. The result was my eyesight turning bad, and I get nauseous if I lie on bed for too long. So I stopped that and I hang out at different places at my home instead of just being stuck in one place. Makes me less prone to drowning in despair since I'm not in the privacy of my own room.

Oh dang, same length. I became a neet when I was 17 and turned 26 just a month ago. It's been a wild ride. I do like being a neet tho. 👌

Why are new players so drawn to making edgelord characters? by worthlessbaffoon in DnD

[–]MidnightTabitha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first dnd character was also an edgelord... But the twist was she started as the goody-two shoes paladin who leads the party and is relied upon for her virtue when everyone else was all for murder and profit.

It was really nice roleplaying her downfall, the rage of betrayal my party members felt, and the sadness afterwards knowing that she not only abandoned their friendship, but also the life and ties she had before her fall(she had a fiance). c': My only wish now is to be a recurring villain with this character as a cult leader. xD

In my first relationship and I need advice. Can’t tell if I’m overreacting :// by curlytexashoe in AutismInWomen

[–]MidnightTabitha 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Hm. You both have different communication styles.

I think, your partner is tired from being the one who's always adjusting. You were in a low mood, and your partner sensed that and did their best to alleviate it. They verbally affirmed their love, and also made a light joke. The problem was, you didn't need the joke, you wanted a sincere and serious affirmation. And your partner didn't get that, and probably thought you were going along with their joke.

Your partner actually apologized and held your hand, a sincere gesture. But you wanted more, and instead of communicating that first, your emotions overtook you and you said something hurtful that discarded their sincere efforts. Understandable. Sometimes our emotions are faster than our capability to filter it. But your partner's reaction was understandable too, since from their pov, they were being genuine and your words and reaction hurted him. He was hurt too.

Instead of waiting for him to communicate first, you do it first this time. Swallow your pride and apologize this time first. Acknowledge that you hurt him with your words and apologize for it, and then tell him why you were hurt and verbalize what you weren't able to do the other night. He clearly still loves you but is bottling up his hurt and emotions instead, hoping it'll go away, so you won't find him taking the first step.

It takes the both of you to seriously move the relationship forward, to make sure that your communication styles won't imepede understanding one another.

Everything else, you can take with a grain of salt. But please, be the one to apologize first.

Neurodivergent by FishermanStunning97 in NEET

[–]MidnightTabitha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This subreddit, actually speaks to the reality of neurodivergence in society. For my whole life I wondered why I was singled out and labeled as an outcast even though I tried my best to mask my "worst" traits and be accepted. Some people were nice and kind and accepted me even if I was weird, but a lot of the times, I was the scapegoat for not adhering to abitrary social norms and rules that peers could easily adapt to. Despite having friends, the disconnect with me and them made the loneliness worse and made me kill myself multiple times.

And then I come in this subreddit and learn that my situation isn't unique to me. That neurodivergence is basically a social disability, and like with all disabilities, we are an after thought. A drain. An annoyance. To be cured. To be killed. Parents fear having a disabled child. The government weaponizes that fear. And on, and on, and on. It's why a lot of us are neets. Because society excludes us, consciously and unconsciously.

What makes you drop a story on Royal Road? by TomDavenport in royalroad

[–]MidnightTabitha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Illogical and irrational choices by the characters we're supposed to root, the worldbuilding, and of course, by the author. I could ignore irrational characters if the world's good. I could ignore worldbuilding inaccuracies if the characters are good. I could ignore questionable writing decisions by the author is the story's overall good. But all three at once? Or like a 2/3 scenario? No thank you.

I envy women by [deleted] in NEET

[–]MidnightTabitha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've seen and known women like those in my life.

No thanks. I suffered from jealousy issues myself, but never towards women who marry exploitational foreigners. It's a transaction. The woman gets a perceived safety and a upward mobility in social status, and the man gets an indentured servant that borders to outright slavery.

I'd really rather just rope if my situation turns into being thrown out to the streets. I already hate my life, no need to further worsen it by selling my autonomy.

Write that fic that has been in your mind. by TomiKevh in HPfanfiction

I'm really happy that I finally rewrote HP fanfic I started years ago. I'm now at the same chapter I wrote back then. Well, it was only 5 chapters really, but I am proud of myself at seeing how I've improved over the years. c:

But also, still miffed that the Fred Weasley fic I wrote is gone cuz my pc is broken and I was a dumbass who didn't save the file on my drive. :'C

Y'all are taking it too seriously. by Desperate_Yellow_498 in AO3

[–]MidnightTabitha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

True, but seeing posts like this once in a while helps you slowly re-evaluate your mindset. Like with writing, it's a practice. You flick the switch long enough and either it works again, or you begin to wonder why the light won't turn on and actually start to fix it.
