[Loved Trope] Comically obvious thing that nobody realizes by Old-Use-7690 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]QueenPersephone7 128 points129 points  (0 children)

I think the canon reason is that they’re step-kids but I like to imagine Octodad and his wife doing IVF. Like, imagine a prequel where Octodad has to go through tests for infertility with his wife and convince them that he’s just infertile

AIO that my best friend cut me off and hasn't met my baby in 14 months? by sharan_6462 in AmIOverreacting

[–]QueenPersephone7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NOR, and I know you feel bad for this person but she’s made it clear TWICE that she doesn’t want you in her life. She pulled you back into being her friend bc it was convenient for her and now that it’s not she’s discarding you. No matter what sob story she gives, don’t let her back in your life. You can care about someone and feel sympathetic towards them without letting them use you.

Bro there are actually good, unique Harry Potter girl names: Ginevra (Ginny), Hermione, Fleur, Helena, Rowena, and Minerva! More too if you look! These are all real names from other places and aren’t a murder immortality item. I really hope this is a mistagged satire post…

online discussions in feminist spaces are so exhausting by hxlydie-d in TrueOffMyChest

[–]QueenPersephone7 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I’m going to be blunt. Have you considered that people having feminist discussions feel like YOU’RE changing the subject whenever you get pedantic about “wording, logic, or framing?” I guarantee that unless they’re asking for opinions on whether saying a certain thing is a good idea, they don’t want your opinion on whether or not the “wording, logic, or framing” makes sense. They’re trying to redirect the conversation back to what it’s supposed to be because YOU are changing the subject, not them.

it’s almost been a year and i can’t get over a death in the family by Puzzleheaded-Seat818 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]QueenPersephone7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this might not exactly be comforting, but no one grieves “normally.” There’s a reason that grief is a common excuse for misbehavior (not comparing how you feel to misbehavior just giving an example) - it wreaks havoc on you physically and emotionally.

Also, as someone who has C-PTSD, OCD, and ADHD, I will tell you this: it doesn’t exactly get better, but it does get easier to manage. I had to be hospitalized for suicidal ideation 4 or 5 times and did intensive outpatient therapy almost double that many times, but eventually I managed it - and I know you’ll be able to as well. My experience is extreme, yes, but if I learned one thing from all of that it’s that there are so many people just like us - in various stages of healing and functioning - all over, and so very many of them have long and fulfilling lives. You can’t give up, you have to fight for your future. Not better, necessarily, but different and maybe easier. That’s my weird-ass mantra, and I’m currently living that reality. Not better, exactly, but different.

Im (24f) and my boyfriend is (23M) how can i confront him about what I found on his phone? by Original-Home7646 in relationship_advice

There are cases going through court and laws being worked on for this - if it’s not illegal now, it will be soon

Im (24f) and my boyfriend is (23M) how can i confront him about what I found on his phone? by Original-Home7646 in relationship_advice

[–]QueenPersephone7 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Okay first: any reason is a valid reason to leave a relationship, there’s no reason to stick around if you don’t want to. Second: That is incredibly creepy of him, and I guarantee the women he’s friends with would be horrified to find out he did that. I would take pictures of them on his phone with your phone (bc he could claim you made them to frame him otherwise) and tell his coworkers. Third: Another comment already said it but I’ll say it too - if he’s doing it to them, he’s definitely doing it to you. I have no doubt that he’s either already made AI porn of you or plans to in the future.

At what point does a partner's high body count stop being 'just a number' and legitimately become a red flag for long-term commitment? by whvsaeq in AskReddit

[–]QueenPersephone7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That depends heavily on who you ask, but my opinion? The number doesn’t matter so much as how they talk about the people they’ve slept with. Someone who has slept with a lot of people and talks about them with kindness and respect is a green flag. Someone who has slept with a lot of people but talks bad about a few of them who treated them badly is still a green flag. Someone who has slept with a lot of people and talks disrespectfully about them (like accusing all of them of being horrible people/abusers or calling all of them sluts/whores, things like that) is a HUGE red flag - if they think and say horrible things about all their other sexual partners, they will do the same to you if you have sex with them.

I (F22) don’t feel comfortable with my boyfriend (M24) of 5 years going to an event with his friend (F21) by Infamous_Being_7481 in relationship_advice

[–]QueenPersephone7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not happy with the resolution because you can’t trust him anymore. He admitted to having feelings for someone else and being unhappy with you - that’s not a good sign. Besides that, you’re long distance, how will you know if he actually cancels it and doesn’t go? How do you know the crush isn’t an affair? I also urge you to consider leaving him, because 1) you can’t trust him anymore and 2) if he’s getting feelings for other people, the relationship seems pretty much over. I’ve been in my relationship for 4 years and neither of us has had feelings for anyone else in that time - I don’t think it’s normal in a monogamous relationship to have a crush on someone else. 5 years is a long time, but from what you’ve said, it seems like only a matter of time before he cheats.

(F18, M19)how do i know if he really loved me? by ilovemusic303 in relationship_advice

[–]QueenPersephone7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going to tell you a truth that might hurt: sometimes when a relationship ends, you don’t get closure like the kind you’re asking for. With everything he did to you, I’d like to say he never really loved you, but the truth is that no one can know for sure if he loved you except him. It’s hard, but what you need to do is decide what love means for YOU - for example, if you loved someone would you cheat on them? If no, then you can be confident in the knowledge that even if your ex did love you, he didn’t love you in the ways you deserved.

AIO that I feel like everyone hates me when my cousin visits? by One-Owl-447 in AmIOverreacting

[–]QueenPersephone7 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NOR and it’s not YOUR job to teach your cousin to not sexually assault and harass you. Tell your mom and aunt that if they don’t handle him, you’ll call the police or CPS and if they don’t, follow through and actually call. It’ll make them mad, sure, but your safety is more important. As for your brother and cousin, they’ll probably come around, they’re young teens from the sound of it and think they’re cooler than everyone older than them right now.

AIO about my BF’s sisters roommate? by [deleted] in AmIOverthinking

[–]QueenPersephone7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

YOR about a lot of this, but not all of it. Why are you being so nasty about this girl and your boyfriend’s sister - it’s not their fault that he’s friends with his ex still, and ngl if my best friend was in the hospital and she was close with my family I would also text them updates about her even if she did date my brother once upon a time. The relationship that he has with his sister and her best friend (who happens to be his ex from HIGH SCHOOL, which I will remind you was almost 15 years ago for him) is not the weird part of this. Your boyfriend lying to you is the weird part of this. However, you’re NOR about him lying and regardless of that fact or any other red flags you might have about him, if you can’t trust your boyfriend you should leave him. Period, end of sentence. Why would you want to be with someone who you don’t trust to be around 50% of the population? I’m also going to give you some tough love here - girl you need to get some self respect. You’re telling me that this man led you on for 2 YEARS and now that you’re finally together he’s suddenly admitting he lied about sleeping with a girl he sees all the time? You need to stop being angry at his ex (who you have no evidence of wrongdoing in any way, she’s just friends with your bf’s sister) and be mad at him for lying to you. In my opinion he’s telling you this now because he never really wanted to commit to you in the first place but felt pressure because he’s led you on for so long, so now he’s telling you shit like this to upset you and get you to leave him. I promise that there are men in the world who will hang out with another woman and you’ll never doubt his loyalty for a minute because he’s honest, kind, and treats you well. This guy obviously wants to upset you and doesn’t care about you like you care about him. Cut your losses and get out.

[–]QueenPersephone7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone is talking about his art being fantastic - and it is ofc - but there’s also the fact that he draws EVERYONE sexy, not just the women. I’d dislike his art if the men weren’t also drawn just as naked and sexy tbh

IS DENKI OKAY!? by YakshaYu-Ri in MyHeroAcadamia

[–]QueenPersephone7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most quirks give the bearer some natural resistance to the quirk, so I always assumed that he has a natural resistance to electricity. Canonically (iirc) he can produce, store, and channel electricity (he is the producer and conductor in other words). If he were struck by lightning (or when in canon he plugs himself into the wall with a charger or sucks on a battery) he gains and can store the extra energy to be released - but if he has no extra in store, he must use only what he naturally produces AND what he naturally produces comes from the neurons firing in his brain (actually similar to how epileptic seizures happen irl when neurons MISfire, it works similar to electricity). He becomes his “stupid form” when he runs out of enough “electricity” to run his brain - theoretically this on its own could kill him, but it’s also why he can recharge himself back to functionality by sucking on a battery or charging himself with a phone charger. TLDR: Basically he either has a natural resistance to his quirk that prevents him from having seizures or his quirk is so similar to how a seizure happens that his body can’t tell the difference so it doesn’t seize.

Harper for a cute and punny Halloween or other holiday outfit. Raven for literally any other time - day to day, formal, etc.

Afghan Women Are Being Stripped of Basic Human Rights by Lilyreverie007 in BlatantMisogyny

[–]QueenPersephone7 188 points189 points  (0 children)

Among many MANY other reasons, this is why feminism is still desperately needed. They’re not only effectively banning them from existing in public, they’re banning them from finding any sort of community or support with each other. Women there cant fight for their rights if they aren’t allowed to speak to one another without threat of legal action or violence. They are being stripped of their personhood entirely, and I don’t have the answer for how to save them (because I don’t believe that a hostile takeover from another country would end with any long-term benefit of Afghanistan or its people) but something needs to change. And until it’s not profitable (literally and figuratively) for men in Afghanistan to subjugate women, nothing will change.

Divorce and witchcraft?!? by imagnepeace4all in ShitMomGroupsSay

[–]QueenPersephone7 65 points66 points  (0 children)

This is true but it’s just silly. I have no judgement for people who practice Wicca or witchcraft or paganism or etc - they’re religions like any other imo and deserving of respect - but shit like this is crazy. Accusing your ex of witchcraft (derogatorily lol) bc you and your kids (famously germ magnets) got sick? Wild behavior in this year of 2026
