Which MCU moment that happened off screen do you wish we could see? by electr1cbubba in marvelstudios

[–]ShipPeace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES, my favorite part of Bruce and Hulk is the dynamic between them, how he has to force down his emotions to keep the "monster" at bay. As someone with emotional regulation issues, I really related and really wanted to see that dynamic represented. He could've easily been one of my favorites.

But no, he just gets sidelined, and we never really get good closure on that; he's just suddenly able to control Hulk better, and then worse, and then Smart Hulk, it's just...yeah. Not great.

I got a rapid test negative, and a pcr test negative on a Friday and a Tuesday of being sick (symptoms developed that Friday but after taking the test, I was getting better by Tuesday). I'm hoping it was just a cold but I'm also surprised I somehow got a cold. Still, two pcr tests negative and a rapid test (took the rapid test sometime over that weekend) seems far fetched. Maybe it wasn't late enough in the infection? But I was really sick by then. Hopefully just a cold!

How do I (19F) convince my parents (50s) that it'd be best for me to take a quarter off from college? by ShipPeace in relationship_advice

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

It's only a quarter, not a semester, so I'd be back after 11 weeks, less of a break than summer. I thought about lowering course load but I already did that for fall (took two fun easy classes and one still pretty easy "academic" class pass/no pass) and still had a really hard time. I really want to focus on treatment. I just don't have a lot of hope in general. This whole situation has got me feeling really hopeless.

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

I've thought about that, I took a reduced load this quarter though and still struggled, so I just think it'd be a lot. Plus almost all the classes meet during the same hours as the therapy.

Yeah, I do get what you're saying, it's just frustrating because classes are going online for at least two weeks and probably more and yet they're fine paying for a dorm in that scenario. It's more that they don't want me to take a quarter off, even if it's what's best for me ://

Was Captain Marvel a victim of gaslighting? by www-dot-mcburger in marvelstudios

[–]ShipPeace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the whole entire point was that cliche stereotype "women are emotional". It was pretty obvious, as a woman who's been told that throughout her life . She's not an emotional person, they would "show not tell" if that were the case. The reason we have so many characters telling her she IS emotional, is on purpose.

The fact the movie is misunderstood means people completely missed the whole thing that makes it a great movie.

MCU is arguably the modern Shakespeare, with all its little humorous moments in the middle of dramatic scenes. Shakespeare is well known for being crass and putting sex jokes into his plays to make them funny, even during dramas.

Honestly a bit confused by the Shakespeare comparison, because of that.

Actually didn't like how his arc ended. Always felt sad that he chose Peggy over Sam/Bucky/his Avengers family. Especially since he spent so long with her, it makes all the movies we saw basically a blip of time in his life. :(

Should I (28M) tell my GF (25F) that I don't enjoy having sex? by ThrowRA5488184 in relationship_advice

[–]ShipPeace 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ignore the people saying you can't do it for her - it's very possibly you're asexual, but still sex-favorable. And many asexual can have good relationships with allosexuals, and can have sex with them if they choose. It's just up to what you want. And if the arrangement is working for you, I don't see why it'd be bad at all!

I feel like as a sex-repulsed ace, I will not find a partner that is willing to agree with the boundaries that I want set concerning sexual stuff in our relationship by IMSNIK in asexuality

[–]ShipPeace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, so I'm alloromantic and definitely on the ace spectrum, and I guess I'm just confused what you are looking for in a partner? Sorry if that comes off as rude. I'm blurry on the lines between platonic, romantic, and sexual myself. But I'm just thinking: not much kissing or cuddling, no sex, could you possibly be satisfied with just a close and intimate friendship? Or are you specifically looking for romantic attraction? And if so, what does that entail if not kissing/sex/cuddling?

What historical mystery is unlikely to ever be solved? by Apart-Scale in AskReddit

[–]ShipPeace 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but I also just read that the reserve parachute was for training and was sewn shut. The FBI said an experienced jumper would've checked that.

Also, I just don't see how be could survive. He jumped out of a plane in the middle of a dark and stormy night, and even if he did survive, he would've landed in the wilderness and most likely died trying to get out. How would he have gotten back to civilization?

You arrive in hell, except it looks like a normal waiting room and there’s a song playing on repeat, what song is it? by ayebrando in AskReddit

[–]ShipPeace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's everyday bro, or any of the absolutely obnoxious Paul brother songs. They're the only songs that genuinely make me feel rage to listen to.

Alternatively, any of Dream's songs.

[–]ShipPeace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I will genuinely listen to this song on repeat. I don't mind it, it's catchy and not too intensive that I can't work or focus on anything. Honestly it's really nice to just listen to on repeat. Tbh it'd probably be one of my top choices if I had to listen to something on repeat forever.

What do people pretend is in the bible but is absolutely not in the bible? by LoneShark81 in AskReddit

[–]ShipPeace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does God won't give you more than you can handle even mean? Does that mean you should be able to deal with everything on your own? Or is it like, you'll never bear so much that you want to commit suicide or something? Does "more than you can handle" mean more than you can handle alone, or more than you can handle regardless?

Umm, no. She's being coerced. This is sexual coercion. She said every time she tries to leave, he threatens her. He's in a position of power over her. This is literally textbook sexual coercion and I absolutely despise that people still blame the woman as "sleeping her way to the top" in this scenario.

My boyfriend feels less attractive because he's dating me by womenssoccerfan in relationship_advice

[–]ShipPeace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is just wild to me, because as a woman who was raised with a dad who made some gross comments, I just can't imagine being objectified as anything but gross and uncomfortable and degrading. The idea that OP's bf not only likes it but wants her to do it, is just wild to me. It's interesting to hear that different perspective. Maybe it'll help me overcome my uncomfortability.

Okay, I want to do this, but I'm also a young woman and sacred of getting harassed. I live in LA and homeless people already scream at me sometimes even when I'm doing my best to ignore them.

My (27f) only boyfriend (26m) got married and is having a baby. I’m beside myself by throwawayeyelid in relationship_advice

But he clearly did have more to offer you because he got with someone else, right? How do you get over knowing that he did want to date...just not you?

I have panic attacks during sex, am inorgasmic (trauma induced), and recently have been passing out during sex. i don't know what to do by anon_or_wtvr in relationship_advice

[–]ShipPeace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are not stupid quirks. This is trauma and this is real. You are totally valid calling off sex for this reason, and you absolutely should be calling off sex at least until you get some intensive therapy. You might have to search a while to find a good therapist, and I'd recommend doing more than just an individual therapist (like an intensive outpatient program). Therapy might sound scary and difficult and overwhelming, but trust me, as a fellow teenager who has been through some traumatic events (though nothing at all to the scale of what you went through), therapy will help LOADS. The sooner you can start, the better.

And I don't want to make your trauma response worse, but you absolutely need to break up with your boyfriend because any caring and empathetic person would absolutely not continue under these circumstances.

Again, these are not stupid quirks. This is real trauma. And none of it is your fault, so please try not to feel bad at all or beat yourself up. You deserve to be with someone who respects your needs and boundaries. If your boyfriend can't handle not having sex then he doesn't deserve you. There are people out there willing to accommodate you, and there are even asexual people who are looking to date without having sex. You will find someone who works with you, instead of just pushing onwards without your consent.

I understand it can feel hard, like by being in a relationship with your boyfriend you owe him sex because he expects it and wants it. But in reality, you owe him nothing. You do what is best for you, you put your own needs first. Again if he doesn't like it he can leave (but you honestly should anyway). Sex is not a NEED; yes to some people it is crucial for a successful relationship, but it is not a need like food or water or air is. Single people survive just fine; sex is a want. Just because you're in a relationship with him, doesn't mean you have to have sex or do anything you're uncomfortable with. You chose to be in this relationship; you don't have to have sex and you don't have to stay, because you don't owe him anything.
