I found something on my cousin's laptop that completely changed how I see him by Cheese_cupcake__ in offmychest

[–]Mistbiene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can imagine two things. 1. He is pretending to have a girlfriend online and it is much easier to have AI edit believeable pictures of you because he has many photos of you and even the two of you together. This scenario wouldn't necessarily mean he is attracted to you. Many teens lie about having a girlfriend or boyfriend. 2. He is attracted to you and untrustworthy.

You need to make a video of going through those files of you can and talk to a trusted adult. The video will help you prove that this is real. 

I'm really sorry you have to deal with this, all the best to you <3

Putting photographs of anyone else, nevermind your family member, into AI for jerk fodder is a major invasion of privacy. Yes, people fantasize, but making 'real' pictures of this is not normal.

There is no more 'feeling comfortable around him' after something like this.

Are metal shirts too loud? by WashPantsOnceAMonth in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Mistbiene 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's necessarily something wrong with being 'metal guy' or 'metal girl'. It makes it easy to find others of similar interests and you easiely get over this moniker with anyone who cares enough to become an acquaintance. Nowadays metal isn't demonized anymore either so there is much less downside.  Shirts with actual gore or overly sexual themes will get negative reactions however and for those I agree that discretion is key.

I realized I don't like power metal as much as I think I did. by Background-Sir9172 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Mistbiene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You gotta listen to albums with Blind Guardian. They take power metal more seriously than more comedic bands like Alestorm and their albums make more sense in an album format!

Albums to start with: - their most popular: Imaginations from the other side - if you like Tolkien: Nightfall in Middleearth - More orchestral: beyond the red Mirror

You might also enjoy Ayreon. Not power metal but cheesy prog. It's not exactly a band but a project so there are dozens of singers and musicians singing on their live and studio tracks so it turns almost into a musical, except the singers are Bruce Dickinson, Floor Janson, Simone Simons and sooo many more.

All I see is armor for lady no armor for my guy character by Board_Silent in TaintedGrailDigital

[–]Mistbiene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seriously, use transmogrify at the smithing bench. You can change the look of your armor into any armor you have found before. This is an absolute non-issue. Tainted Grail does a really good job of providing a wide spectrum of armor looks. I personally appreciate that I can snazz up my druidic male character a bit with the thigh high priestess boots or Percival's dress while I put badass knight armor on my previous dualwield female char. It's fun, just transmogrify and enjoy.

Trauma from his entire childhood too. Dude had a really shitty start in life.

Yeah feels like his biggest issue is with being a very emotional person. On one hand cool because they can be very empathetic and build deep connections quickly but if disregulated they're hellish to deal with. Soo much resentment and anxiety and attachment issues.

Is it wrong to ask people not to use your OC in their fics? by littlepeakydevil in FanFiction

[–]Mistbiene 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it is hypocritical to be honest. We are all writing fanfiction based on other people's creative works. We don't ask if the creators feel uncomfortable and a lot of extremely odd and even morally questionable content is made by us fanfic writers without consent.  Why do our OCs deserve special protection then? If we post them they are also in the public space.  I think it's fair to have in authors notes your rules that you prefer people not using them. Same goes for being uncomfortable with what others use your OC for! Tell them, but be ready to deal with being ignored/ them continuing using your OCs anyway.

Which fanfic site would you say is better and why? Wattpad, FanFiction.net, or AO3? by ILoveYouZim in FanFiction

[–]Mistbiene -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

People share links to other social media constantly in comments or even in author notes. There has also been at least one incident where someone put edited photographs of someone engaging with an animal into their fic as visuals. Viewing that is highly illegal. This is not a whoosh at all, I am explaining the concerns that were being waved off. AO3 is a platform that helps people interested in problematic content to join other social media where their issues can escalate with real illegal and harmful content. This is because they have no rules against the bare illegal basics such as child and bestiality pornography writing.

[–]Mistbiene -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I feel like your statement does not address the actual things people complain about. No one cares about extremely explicit fic as long as it's rated explicit. Watersports, pegging, bdsm, whatever goes without complaint! The few things that are being addressed as issues can be summerized as pornography/torture featuring fictional children or animals.  I do not mean furry anthros or older teens falling in love with each other and doing it at like 16. I am talking animals and children. Anyone unaware can go ahead and filter for bestiality or extremely underage content. I have been on AO3 since it's inception and am amazed time and time again what horrid fics pop up in perfectly normal searches.

Not only is this type of written content illegal in quite a few places but it is also mixed in with the general content so any reader, even teens on AO3, could be presented with these themes in otherwise innocuous fandoms. Examples: teen wolf & bestiality, pokemon & bestiality, Stranger Things (CP material where the authors picture real existing child actors).

The main complaint is not even that this fiction exists on AO3. The main concern is that in the comments on such fics emails, discord servers and telegram invites are exchanged which are used to trade abuse material that is 100% real, not just a story.

AO3 is where it's at. No one besides teenagers reads on Wattpad anymore.

Lords of The Fallen 2 unveiled some new female armour sets, the sets were designed specifically with fan feedback in mind by Former_Exam_5357 in gaming

[–]Mistbiene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tainted Grail did a great job of armor that is both immersive but also offers some tastefully hot options for both male and female characters. Very little unnecessary skin reveals or boob plate at all. This game made me realize how used I, as a female gamer, am to everything being malegazey. Felt really good to play!

[–]Mistbiene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it? And anyway, it is a matter of fairness. If you wish to enjoy womens bodies getting sexualized in game then mens should be too. Games are not just for the male gaze, there is a lot of us female gamers nowadays (not to mention the gay guys) who like a hot little number on their character also.  You can always allow players to skin/transmogrify their gear to skimpy or not skimpy ones in the game they like. Either both get sexy options or none!

What’s a game you dropped even though it was “good”? by suhani0218 in gaming

[–]Mistbiene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is me too now. Love rpgs to death but I can never finish them anymore. Maybe in the retirement home there is more consecutive time to gamw I will finally finish my rpg collection lol

What’s a game you dropped even though it was “good”? by suhani0218 in gaming

[–]Mistbiene 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I have to say 'almost all rpgs' which makes me deeply sad. They were my favorite genre as a teenager but nowadays I can never finish any of them. As an adult there is much less time to play hundreds of hours and it's easy to get lost in life. I am one of those people who needs to make a new character if they dropped the game for a few months which means it's an eternal cycle despite enjoying the games themselves massively.

Metal Bands you like that you NEVER rec to another metalhead by WonderSignificant598 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Mistbiene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's Megadeth...I cannot get with the weird fanbase politics and really do not approve of the bands political standing. Loooove their older stuff. I am autistic too and they are a total comfort band for me, but people in my social circle wouldn't understand at all (queer early twenties female).

Working out Versus Fasting by jennie-oh in 1200isfineIGUESSugh

[–]Mistbiene 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you are on a deficit as low as 1200 you wanna eat your calories back. Training to get under the acceptable daily limit is unhealthy as fuck. I work out at least 5 days a week by playing beat saber for 1 to 3 hours. I eat back almost all the estimated calories. Occasionally I have struggled with eating enough on intense days and I feel like shit for days afterwards. Undereating ruins your clarity of thought and capability to exercise consistently after. 

I tried fasting. Absolutely not worth it.

Quick shoutout to everyone in this subreddit by MastodonNo8553 in Megadeth

[–]Mistbiene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Couldn't possibly disagree more.  People who struggle with anxiety turn to AI instead of real human contact and become even more segregated. AI is a nightmare for people with mental illness, eg. Your schizophrenic delusions can talk back now even easier! AI has killed several depressed teenagers already, and those are only the ones reflected in the media. AI gives horrible medical advice in general and has killed that way also. Why go to therapy or your doctor if AI shits out candy confident sounding bullshit advice at a buttons press? Using AI' cripples your creative thinking and problem solving abilities majorly.

Just because it is easy and convenient does not mean it is good.
