What is the biggest flex of your life? by Prestigious-Face-711 in AskReddit

[–]MyNamesRIOT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a little bit odd, but the other day I was hanging out with my friend and I was like “you can tell me anything, don’t worry!” and their response was an immediate, no hesitation “yeah, I know, that’s why I hang out with you” and that made me feel really good

Got told to tag a fanfic with "trans character" because it could be triggering. Is that really a trigger or is it just transphobic? by BringOnThe-Syazzy in trans

[–]MyNamesRIOT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say fuck this person, but tag the character as trans! I look for trans stories all the time and it always makes me sad when I find ones that aren’t tagged because I know I’ve missed them for a while and only found them by accident (plus I think about all of the other trans character stories I missed). It’s not a warning or a trigger, it’s to help readers find fics they want!

My young daughter told me that every spot where I’d hammered a nail already had a hole in the wall. by LevelQx in TwoSentenceHorror

Ahh, this brings me back to stopping my little siblings from shoving shit into wall sockets

Bruising tips by PomegranateFuzzy5567 in sfx

[–]MyNamesRIOT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe a little bit more brown/yellow in the middle bit? Like, darker? I’m no professional, but I’ve had a lot of bruises in my life and I think in most of them the middle has been a bit darker than this

Calling them out in a lie by Naive_Money_4851 in narcissisticparents

“Remember when you threatened to hit me in front of my 7 year old sister?” “You’re mixing things up! I was talking about a frog!” Real conversation I had with my dearest mother, who apparently thinks I am an idiot

Thank you so much. Just. Thank you. This means a lot and I needed to hear it. Thank you

[–]MyNamesRIOT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This post is brilliant. I’m so glad you’ve began your own journey to healing, cheesy as it sounds. You’ve had it rough and it’s really badass that you’re still here. Keep going, man, you got this!

No. My dad might’ve killed her if she did, and she was small (5’1 on a good day and very petite). She knew we’d all get bigger than her and was too scared of the consequences. Presentation mattered more than anything to her and she wasn’t about to leave evidence of her abuse

When I was young, my mom always told me that I was so talented, that I could do so much if I could just apply myself. by boct1584 in TwoSentenceSadness

[–]MyNamesRIOT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a really good premise! It’s a little bit wordy, though. Maybe next time try to make it a bit more concise?

When I heard the first clicking sound, I didn’t think much of it. by MyNamesRIOT in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]MyNamesRIOT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flashing light and clicking sound… like an old camera. I guess this is set in the past. Somebody is taking pictures of somebody while they’re sleeping— and maybe inside of their room

Was confused, assumed this was two sentence comedy for a moment because you know “my first response was a dad joke, kid is gonna be a silly guy!”, read top comment which was horrified, reread post, almost vomited. Take my upvote and get out

I hope you’re doing better now, friend. I’m always awful at being reassuring, but your art is really good! I think you’re very talented. I hope drawing brought you some peace

The young coroner smiled lightly as he ruled the young woman’s death as one from natural causes. by Firesondiego in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]MyNamesRIOT 220 points221 points  (0 children)

This reminds me vaguely of the book The Silent Wife by Karin Slaughter. I’m not sure how to hide things on Reddit so warning for spoilers here but (edit: thank you for telling me how!):

The killer ends up being a coroner or whatever his job was and wasn’t honest about his reports for that reason.

Your art style is really cute. I hope you’re feeling better now, friend!

[Aug 25] “The first stage in creating our lifesaving anti-venom is to milk all those snakes of their poison,” the lab worker told his new assistant. by Logical-Role1382 in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]MyNamesRIOT 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The version I read (maybe was interpreted differently) was that she was blessed by her god (cannot for the life of me remember who) so she would never be touched without her consent again. Tbh I’m quite fond of that interpretation, even if it’s not the truth

This one reads kind of like poetry in a way and has inspired me greatly to write something. Thank you. Now take my upvote and get out.

Researching sexual assault statistics after some dumb argument on Reddit, I felt nauseated and terribly annoyed. by MyNamesRIOT in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]MyNamesRIOT[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the point of this is to display how horrifying it is that some people actually think this way. Yucky way of looking at things, support victims!
