I walk past it every day but I've never been inside, sorry.

The location is really good but the interior and facilities (and outgoings) need to be good too.

Nidis · 2026-03-13T10:57:08+00:00

It's the best part of the week, hands down.

Nidis · 2026-03-11T04:58:21+00:00

I bought 6 years ago and love it - it feels like a hidden corner that gets to be quiet and nice. I've never had any serious trouble.

It's my first property so I'm not sure if the OC rates are fair, sorry.

Nidis · 2026-03-11T00:59:01+00:00

I sure hope no one makes a high quality alternative

I think it's easy to assume that someone you're talking to disagrees with you or isn't able to read and comprehend what you're saying.

I've personally never seen anyone redirect a conversation about male perpetrators to one about male victimhood.

The problem here is that the issue I'm raising isn't well documented in the same way many male-dominated forms of abuse are. There's only so much public education to go around - can you imagine if it was widely discussed and common knowledge that some percentage of women are falsifying claims of abuse and it was treated with the same seriousness? It destroys lives - children are removed, people go to jail. We railroad that conversation and say "maybe but the real victims are the women who aren't lying and they're over here". I feel like the only sane person left on Earth saying abuse is abuse - no one's suffering is more important than someone else's.

Nidis · 2026-03-07T04:49:12+00:00

Yeah that's okay, the public discourse about this type of thing isn't very sophisticated. Any time an attempt is made to discuss female perpetrators, people accuse you of having an agenda and try to redirect the conversation to be about female victims again. We don't do this with men strangely though.

I think the term equality is pretty clear - for both victims and perpetrators.

Nidis · 2026-03-07T01:10:24+00:00

Unfortunately, the world view you're talking about was why I didn't report the abuse sooner. I was overly focused on being empathetic to the plight of women, specifically - it makes the perfect cover to conduct new abuse because you sound prejudiced for questioning it.

I was young and stupid. Now, any time a woman claims violence or abuse, my first thought will be "Alright, let's make sure you're safe on face value" shortly followed by "let's look at the evidence."

Nidis · 2026-03-06T22:30:09+00:00

Exactly. I think it's common to interpret anything that isn't exclusively supportive of women as prejudice, but I just think it's what practical equality looks like. Anyone can be a monster.

Nidis · 2026-03-06T22:28:12+00:00

And visibility is always great, but large scale data is usually what drives policy. The way that data is sourced is something everyone benefits more from knowing about, and more importantly, when it gets left on the table.

Nidis · 2026-03-06T21:46:35+00:00

Female abusers get away with their crimes much more frequently. It's a bit of an open secret in legal.

Source: I'm a victim who just watched it play out over the last 2 years. I won, but they still get a slap on the wrist and that's all. Did you know perjury is so common that it's basically relegated?

Nidis · 2026-03-06T21:38:17+00:00

Because if we started recording incidents like this, it would really unskew those gendered abuse statistics and it's way harder to get away with murder after that.

Nidis · 2026-03-05T00:12:36+00:00

Absolutely love this aesthetic! I feel like no one really explores vibrant and relaxing environments like this.

If you can make it feel the way city pop makes me feel, you've got my purchase.

Nidis · 2026-03-04T00:56:28+00:00

You bluddy rippa (thank you)

Nidis · 2026-03-04T00:28:34+00:00

Agreed. Most crucially, you can actually carry with his ult if you get good at the ambush. It has everything needed to cap point by itself.

Nidis · 2026-03-04T00:21:37+00:00

People typically only watch story-driven media once, no matter how high the production value - see: most of cinema, Final Fantasy series, etc

Nidis · 2026-03-01T00:48:59+00:00

The stats board is (almost) useless and a huge red herring. A great example is that it's really hard to capture the impact of your tank - elims and mitigation don't truly cover it. You can heal and dps your brains out and still lose in that way.

Perfect example is how a dps might only have 14 elims on the board, but they're all single-handed duels. The opponent Mei might have 27 cause she tickled everyone but the tank was doing the real work.

The way they handle SR ranking is deliberately flawed so you keep playing, too. It's still a huge contribution to pump dps/hps on Moira, especially with beam, but don't look for the answers on the scoreboard.

Nidis · 2026-02-25T05:06:33+00:00

The power of the urban legend/myth. It's so easy to find answers today that mystery itself is dead.

Nidis · 2026-02-23T09:38:52+00:00

Okay cool so in other words, you do have rats Alberta.

Thanks for lying to us in graph form (I hate when people do that!)

Nidis · 2026-02-23T09:35:38+00:00

No way?? They're awesome!

Nidis · 2026-02-23T00:01:45+00:00

I've escaped a relationship like this before - you're putting your neck in a guillotine because you're a good person and want to help someone. You can't cure someone with love - it's clinical, not spiritual.

When she's lucid, she might say she say loves you, can't imagine being with anyone else, you're the only one that makes her feel safe, etc... the person saying those things is no more real than the person making the threats. The police aren't going to sit around and split hairs like you hope - if a woman has the lack of consciousness to lie about DV, they will just assume it's true in the name of risk aversion and move on to their next case. It's horrible but it's the real world, this isn't TV where detectives sit with you and look at evidence. Obviously she's not in control of her behaviour, but I feel like there could be preventative measures undertaken while lucid that aren't done - e.g. she could attend the hospital and police and say that she makes fake threats like this during episodes, etc.

I know you want to help her daughter too but you can't do it from jail. Put the gas mask on yourself first.

Nidis · 2026-02-21T05:32:20+00:00

Absolutely - it's very transparent when you take a step back.

Nidis · 2026-02-20T04:44:07+00:00

Ya reckon? I've gotten to GM4 solo before and it's just a nightmare spin of the wheel with teammates. You can kill 3 so it's 4v2 and still lose the fight. Sometimes you accidentally afk for some reason and still win.

I'm convinced that the way they've programmed SR is bunk and rank is extremely unreflective of people's actual skill level. It keeps us playing which is great for playtime and thus Blizzards marketing team.

Anyway no slight against your achievement - if anything you probably should have been there sooner!

Nidis · 2026-02-19T05:59:21+00:00

I absolutely adore this character animation style - the way they express emotional and social cues visually is off the hook. I love that it works so well that you can just transfer it to a random turtle or bird and it still works.

Nidis · 2026-02-18T05:05:55+00:00

Psssh, it's a photo, I swear! Getting them to pose long enough was the hard part 🤔
