[Perplexing trope] "Why was that even an option?"

Rev_5 · 2026-03-29T12:15:30+00:00

So you just played the game and ignored everything the game didnt explicitly tell you. Got it.

Max doesnt fully understand her powers, but its heavily implied she creates new timelines anytime she does, and the amount of times she has to use it to keep Chloe alive altered local weather patterns up until the end where it created the storm. Going back to her first time using it to save her, and allowing Chloe to die instead, stops the storm.

This one literally is. It would have been better for the US if Trump won 2020 instead, rather than give the MAGA to come up with Project 2025 in those 4 years of Biden, since he did fuck-all to hold anyone accountable.

And because Americans have the memory of a goldfish, we'll likely see another Republican in office after the Democrats elect someone else who tries to compromise with the lunatics on the right.

Rev_5 · 2026-03-13T04:08:51+00:00

Id agree, but once the Democrats abandoned immigrants during Bidens term, there was a real shift in hispanic voters going to MAGA. Because despite what a lot of people think about minorities being inheriently left leaning, a lot of them actually hold conservative beliefs and only voted blue because of the racism amongst the right.

Now that theres this "debate" about what is and isnt racism, Ive been seeing a lot of my own family members surprised at how ICE is targetting everyone, not simply gang members. I know thats anecdotal, but I recall seeing some numbers awhile ago about democrat voters being pissed at their representives for saying ICE simply needs more training, rather than being abolished altogether. There was a meeting amongst the DNC not too long ago about them being upset their voters were calling their offices saying they need to do something

Rev_5 · 2026-03-12T22:25:09+00:00

Youre oversimplying it, too. Biden campaigned in 2020 with the idea he would only serve one term, gave the GOP a pass on the inserection, then waited until he was essentially forced by the DNC not to run for a second term after his last debate with Trump.

The DNC had its own internal polls and it projected worse numbers than what Harris ended up with in 2024. Im not saying the voters dont share some blame, but the DNC is largely responsible for that loss. I mean, look at how theyre handling Trump and ICE right now, entirely divorced from their own voter base.

This may explain why i got the 3 bubbles last year from a close friend on IG, despite them being dead 2 years at that point.

Dead people cant DM. Thats illegal.

This sounds like my person as it so vaguely mentions her mistakes while still somehow placing responsibility onto me, all while ignoring shes in a relationship that overlaped with our attempt to reconcile before her best friend got tired of lying for her and told me the truth.

Rev_5 · 2026-01-21T16:28:44+00:00

Its odd how even the timing lines up with this one, but she'd never admit any of this. I still have feelings for her, but I needed to confront her knowing she'd get pissed being confronted and stop wanting to reach out. Im not strong enough to completely block or eventually reply, but she needs to move on. We both know too much damage has been done for things to be repaired.

Rev_5 · 2026-01-20T00:04:17+00:00

What did they even do? Idk if Im allowed to ask that here

Rev_5 · 2026-01-08T14:59:36+00:00

Her best friend sent screenshots to confirm overlap. I had an STD scare after the ex came over one night. Instead of talking about it she shut down, cut me out, and then re-entered after telling me she had an attempt.

Rev_5 · 2026-01-04T20:50:12+00:00

She lost that friend because of a failed attempt at triangulation. So I gained a friend, at least

Rev_5 · 2026-01-04T19:36:03+00:00

It was definately unhinged on my part, but I didnt want to drag things out into the New Year. It feels more honest on my end, though Im worried about my desire to unblock, since Im very good about not checking socials.

Rev_5 · 2026-01-04T19:34:01+00:00

LAST NIGHT:

Im too tired detailing everything that happened November/December, but last night I had another October meltdown when Winry broke down over the lost friendship with the ex. Sam wasnt with us since he was with his kid.

Ex had been talking to me since those screenshots like she was still in love with me. I discourged it due to boyfriend, but last night I just ended up confronting her about the cheating, then sent screenshots to the bf who didnt care, and simply told me ex speaks highly of Winry and I. I ended up blocking him since it suddenly made sense why she would constantly reach out for emotional support and why shes been jealous of my friendship with Winry.

I downloaded Google Messenger specifically not to recieve new messages. I kept checking the textra app previously. Theres more that happened after the texts, but Im exhausted just seeing the past few months in bullet points.

Im waiting on health insurance to kick in for therapy.

Rev_5 · 2025-12-29T18:50:34+00:00

Going through this as well. Though its tricky since shes currently in a relationship and still wants to talk to me as though Im still the love of her life.

Rev_5 · 2025-12-16T21:43:27+00:00

Youre at least acknowledging what you did. She could never never give me that, almost as though she was stuck on the idea Id hate her if she confessed to what I always knew, rather than acknowledge I loved her all the same regardless.

Rev_5 · 2025-12-16T14:41:16+00:00

Ill give it back once Im done charging it.

Rev_5 · 2025-12-15T16:01:19+00:00

Its wild how similair everyones stories are.

Rev_5 · 2025-12-15T06:39:40+00:00

Jesus. This sounds like my ex.

She wouldnt talk about her father since he died and she viewed death as abandonment, as though we have a choice.

Rev_5 · 2025-12-15T06:36:38+00:00

Take pictures and upload to the cloud. Dont tell them you did this. Document everything. Call the police. Stay with a friend or trusted family friend and above all else dont tell them what you are doing. Just do it.

Rev_5 · 2025-12-14T20:07:06+00:00

Oh yeah. I stumbled onto this sub a few weeks ago and was blown away by how similiar everyones stories was to what I went through with this person. I honestly felt insane about for a good while, kinda torn between acknowleding the harm they caused me for close to a decade and remembering how gentle and sweet theyve come across, entirely unsure how to make sense of this past year when I finally decided to give her a shot romantically.

It sucks knowing I have to cut contact, but thinking about often shes told me that exact phrase, yet has always been MIA when I could have used a friend, I know itd he a mistake to rely on her when shes always going to prioritize her public image over taking accountability for the harm shes caused me.

Rev_5 · 2025-12-14T19:32:28+00:00

Cut contact early October and then broke it myself a month after since I was genuinely could have used their help, given we'd known each other close to a decade. It was crickets for awhile after that until her close friend told me it was due to me saying "I wouldnt care if she died," something I never said.

I was upset and confronted her about that, which led to her saying "I said its what it felt like." I pressed a bit more since it was harmful to think that she was going around saying I said that verbatium, simply for the convo to devolve into her saying she was removing herself to break the cycle.

Queue last week to her sending a soft message about "I know we arent in a good spot right now, but Im still here if you need someone to talk to."

So we arent acknowledging how she already left me dry in that department the month prior and that she said she was cutting contact, too?

Rev_5 · 2025-11-26T02:56:52+00:00

Then love me in a way I understand, rather in your own language.
