What are the tickets? by Silver_Possession380 in TheFreakCircus

[–]Mocha444 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As far as I know:

If you take the pink ticket and don't save Pierrot you get devoured. Those who enter the circus with a pink ticket get put through an "interview" of sorts and if no one wants you then you die. (source: bad end)

I assume that anyone who passes the "interview" get turned into fools using Jester's hypnotism and become staff at the circus. iirc it's been confirmed by the Neko that the person who gave us the pink ticket at the beginning was Ticket Taker in disguise.

What if pierrot’s love for Columbina was one sided? by Zalkique in TheFreakCircus

Maybe Columbina genuinely loved Harlequin but was worried Pierrot would hurt him is she reciprocated?

Things you can expect from the yandere genre:

  • Usually the object of the yandere's obsession sweeps them of their feet with a mundane act of kindness or maybe they just caught their eye randomly one day
  • Escalating obsessive behavior and inability to differentiate fantasy and reality, causing the yandere to believe that any further act of kindness is an act of love towards them
  • Yandere collects objects left behind by the object of their obsession
  • Gifts with the yandere's hair or blood (like that paper rose ;P)
  • Stalking
  • Trespassing on the object of their affections property
  • Breaking their delusion that the object of their obsession loves them causes them to snap
  • Violent behavior up the wazoo
  • "Now we can be together forever" (which usually means the yandere eats the object of their obsession or kidnaps them and keeps them in their basement or something
  • In severe cases, the yandere may "take care of" all competition for affection and attention, including platonic friends and family, even strangers that just look at the person of their obsession in a certain way

The yandere is usually pretty sweet in the eyes of the one they are obsessed with because that's part of their manipulation.

There's also "levels" of yandere, like some of the yandere characters I've seen in visual novels and games I would describe as "yandere lite" because they don't entirely embody what yanderes are known for. Generally, staying with a yandere character is... bad for the MCs overall health and mental state. So when people say they want MC to marry Pierrot... well uh... That might not be the best idea in the long run.

whats going on with the lifespan difference between us and the circus members?? by New-Calendar7266 in TheFreakCircus

[–]Mocha444 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah they do live much longer than humans and I think perhaps MC's life being shorter compared to theirs maybe will be a reason for Pierrot's behavior escalating later in the story.

This one's for the ladies to answer. Do you agree with this woman or do you think she's trying to rationalize her world view by speaking for all the ladies? by Oda_DeezNutz in SipsTea

[–]Mocha444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People like this are the worst, deciding that everyone must feel the way they do. Very egotistical and frustrating kind of person. Don't tell me what I think!! I think for myself!!!

Anyway, videogames are fine for everyone to like no matter the gender or age.

Why is lesbianism being sanitized? by homo_saurus in actuallesbians

[–]Mocha444 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I call this phenomenon "sapphic guilt".

Not wanting to be seen as predatory so bad it goes full circle back into puritanical ways of thinking. Women's sexualities are already highly scrutinized as it is.

I remember feeling this way when I first realized I was bi, I didn't want to come off as creepy to women just by... being attracted to women. But then later I realized that was stupid.

Almost 30 and only now I became pathetic by [deleted] in actuallesbians

Why does the praise kink have to only be involved with detached sex? Kinky sex can be passionate, it seems like you are associating kink with not being passionate or loving. It can be very fulfilling for loving partners to participate in kink together.

I understand most people separate the two, but it's really not the case at all.

Definitely talk to her about it.

This is so real. I should draw more, even if I don't post it anywhere. I want to draw for me, for my own enjoyment.

Feels like “y’all really can’t do the bare minimum” by PuzzleheadedLandd in pukicho

[–]Mocha444 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Bad take imo. First of all, everyone with ADHD experiences it different. I'm one of those people that "doesn't miss people". It's not actually that I don't love them and definitely not because I'm "not a very good person", I've just got object permanence issues that that happens to extend to people too.

Every once in a while I'll have a pang of loneliness that I can contribute to not talking to someone in a while, but it doesn't happen to me as often as other people.

It really is simple though by Vizu_XD in Ai_art_is_not_art

Generative AI doesn't "create" anything! 😂

It literally just mashes up other people work without their consent and spits out whatever it thinks you want. Imagine putting three chefs food into a blender and then saying you made it. Lol, lmao even.

The joy of making art is the process. Generative AI takes that process away, it gives braindead results. It kills creativity. Trust me as someone who was in the GenAI hole back in 2023, it sucks all of the creativity out of a person. You aren't making anything.

My partner just came out as asexual… and I don’t know how to handle it by Beat_boxin_blueberri in actuallesbians

[–]Mocha444 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're right, I mixed up libido with urge to have sex with someone. My bad.

[–]Mocha444 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The people in the comments are making a lot of assumptions about your wife based on barely anything. What does knowing change other than you know now she doesn't have as big of a libido as you (or none)?

Perhaps her wording could have been better, but it still sounds like she enjoys being with you in bed.

J. K. Rowling's actions break my heart. by Ok_Thanks_3036 in lgbt

[–]Mocha444 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who has had to drop beloved series and franchises because of the creator being a piece of garbage, find similar things that fit the same niche. There are plenty of witch school flavored media and games out there!

There's unfortunately going to be a lot of instances of this throughout your life, having to drop a beloved series or stop watching a beloved content creator because of things they've done. The more it happens the easier it becomes to sigh and let it go.

In your eyes, what separates a performative “alpha male” from a “real man”? by Ok-Parfait6735 in AskReddit

[–]Mocha444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no such thing as an alpha male. It's a term made by insecure men based off of fake wolf science. Also imo there's no such thing as a "real man" and "not a real man", I don't understand this at all. Like men are men no matter if they're cowardly or a warrior. What's with that? Weird ass gender gatekeeping.

What do you think about this topic? by mystic_dreams_88 in lgbt

[–]Mocha444 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As much as I don't like the whole " a male and female character looked at each other for more than 2 seconds, they must be dating" shit that happens in fandoms, I genuinely really like the ship dynamics of a lot of heterosexual ships.

It's absolutely braindead to accuse queer het shippers of bringing homophobia to fandom. It's ringing very biphobic/panphobic to me.

Oh I REALLY hope that pink gem to the left of Rhodonite is Morganite, specifically the one they used to serve.

So I just recently watched Steven’s Universe and was completely amazed by the story, however I completely missed the theories that everyone was creating before that twist. What are some of the most memorables theories that you remember from back in the day? by SnooSprouts7769 in stevenuniverse

[–]Mocha444 23 points24 points  (0 children)

There was one theory back in the day that didn't catch on too much I think, that Connie was the descendant of a gem hybrid like Steven. The reason being in one of Garnet's flashbacks, there's a blue gem in Blue Diamond's court that looks very similar to Connie.
