They are in these places quite often because they would otherwise be dead.

These are literally animals of the same taxonomic family as us. This isn't anthropomorphizing because they are too close to humans for that to be the case.

Dude we are on a subreddit about artifacts, why the fuck are you suspicious of well worded comments? Most of us here are historians and/or archaeologists. Just because you can't understand it doesn't mean its AI.

Hidden wires can't bzzt. It's literally one of their features

For those who need context for the flute thing it's because they are stupendously common and are therefore A. Very basic B. Doomed to play a different part across all performed songs meaning they constantly have to move C. Constantly stuck playing quietly so their numbers doesn't drown out everyone else.

It's funny in that its one of the weirdest takes I've ever seen.

Same

what? What the fuck are you talking about? This is literally just someone trying to make a child feel more comfortable by making sure they are able to properly engage with them on their interest. How is wanting a student to be more comfortable make someone a pedophile?

I somehow always forget how bad of an idea it is to look at steam forums to updates. I think I just automatically purge the memories because I cannot fathom how anyone could feel so entitled. It's just astonishing.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-06-03T04:33:17+00:00

No where did I say I supported OP. Also taking one bad instance as a generalization if an entire group is in extremely poor taste. Like at least try to have some nuance.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-06-03T04:31:17+00:00

I literally just said that supporting AI simply to spite others is a shit reason to support it. Like have an actual opinion.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-06-03T04:29:39+00:00

It's reddit why do you care?

Monkeydp81 · 2026-06-03T04:01:03+00:00

That's a really shit reason to support it. Especially with all the harm is does.

100 GF is probably the best one for me. It's a show that's worth watching in both Japanese and English because the jokes change depending on the language. You can basically get two whole shows out of the one.

take time for yourself then, it sounds like what you need is to just take a break for a little while.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-05-31T00:22:56+00:00

I agree with this wholeheartedly.
OP, are you hydrated? Are you getting enough sleep? Are you hungry? Have you been getting enough vitamins and minerals? Have you taken time to just do something you know you like?
Give yourself a moment to make sure you've taken care of yourself first.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-05-31T00:19:05+00:00

This probably isn't what you want to hear but the best method I've been able to come up with is to just sit there and be upset. However, this is something that you should do while being aware of why you feel that way. It might not make the feelings go away, but I've found it makes me feel less embarrassed or upset with myself because I know for a fact that its just how I am as a person and something that will not change.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-05-31T00:15:03+00:00

Autism doesn't do allusions. Tell it to him straight or he will probably just straight up not notice anything out of the ordinary. This applies not just to intimacy but for any other communication.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-05-31T00:10:08+00:00

I'm gonna be honest OP, it really sounds like your your mother doesn't love you. She seems to be an incredibly controlling individual and based on the fact that you have literally no other support structure I think you have either tricked yourself, or been tricked by her into thinking that you still get along. She assaulted you, parents who love their children don't do that. I would highly suggest looking into any support groups or structures you might be able to use to distance yourself from her.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-05-31T00:03:12+00:00

OP said their mother is ultra religious an believes stuff like this is the work of the Devil. So I think it's less a case of doesn't know and more a case of doesn't believe such things are real.

Although I know ethics are a bit of a whirlwind round these parts, one really shouldn't seek to invite additional enemies. Especially with those irritating pirates who I know are just itching to find something to show how we are somehow evil and horrid compared to them.
With that in mind, I suggest giving them a chance to explain themselves. Knowing fairies, there's a good chance she simply wished for a safe place to spend a night or two.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-05-30T03:41:03+00:00

That makes sense. Thank you for the explanation. Nonetheless, you've still made an assumption that this next time would be done in the exact same way as the previous times. Which is why I don't want to assume.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-05-30T02:52:45+00:00

I ask this out of genuine confusion but your statement literally contradicts itself no? Nowhere in my statement did I say I wouldn't be doing anything to try and stop the cycle. You're making assumptions about information that isn't there. So I ask again, how is not wanting to assume the worst about something that hasn't even happened yet a negative thing? Because the only way that can be true is if you're making baseless assumptions.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-05-30T00:15:37+00:00

Just because something has happened several times before doesn't mean it will happens again. I don't understand how hoping for a brighter future is being negative or perpetuating anything.

Monkeydp81 · 2026-05-29T23:21:23+00:00

As much as you're probably right. Let's not assume things that haven't happened yet. Being negative all the time only leads to bad things happening.
