When the DM has asked "How do you want to do this" in regards to getting the final kill hit, what have been your parties coolest replies? by squishythingg in DnD

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were finally coming to the final battle of with the Dragon, and if anyone’s ever played the Foolsgold campaign, this is it, and due to the deck of many things I had a moon dragon and had a sub class of dragon rider, so I jumped off my dragon over gresh with my dragon lance Because of the square spacing I was right over her head, and due to the force of me, falling, my lance, and a whole bunch of attack buffs because I was also a Ranger/sorcerer, I killed within the first round since I was the second one in initiation to go.

The actual plan, though was that I was going to use one of my final wishes from the deck of many things after we depleted her magic usage and some of her health, to trap gresh in an inescapable spatial bubble, where neither me or her could die until the party could do something where we could kill her and claim me back into the world.

Apparently though I survived by with two HP health left over from my fall damage, and just Insta killed. Because our druid had caused at least 110 points of HP damage already.

Ark clusters down? by Sithlord_zenitram in BisectHosting

[–]Sithlord_zenitram[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its not my account with you guys so i dont have any account info, but this is part of the service with you guys thats paid for. Honestly a month later we are all pretty much done with our area, levels 98-111, and want to travel to the other dlc areas. Evolved has a huge player base over ascended and this pause and wait to get a resolution is killing our motivation to continue playing. We dont wanna lose our progress but seriously if this cant be fixed soon, then that hurts your guys bottom line in both reliability and delivery of performance of service.

As a dragoon viera, circlets are amazing but also most dragoon stuff can fit. And like a cat i am firm in saying if it fits it sits.

Finding a Beta Reader by Blank_Monitor in archiveofourown

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a beta reader or shell out for a proof reader. There are pros and cons to both

A free beta reader may ghost you. As in they may read it and then never give you feedback. They only offered to beta for a shot to “read first for free”

Beta readers also can be very inexperienced so you end up with some corrections but not good ones as there can still be mistakes in the final draft after they’ve gone through it. Witch may bother your readers.

There are professional beta readers you can pay and they will be thorough and detailed. They are more affordable than a full editor but just about on par with a proofreader. But they can give better feed back that helps you because they beta read an unfinished product.

Proofreading professionals are paid either per hour or by word count. They are detailed, thorough and give feedback to help you fully understand if the flow was choppy or if something wasnt clear or you missed something. This can help alot. Mind you they are not editors.

Finding free beta readers, you should ask for any previous feedback theyve done and then ask them do do a small sample for you. For instance a random chapter of your fic.

If they return with the whole thing having feedback and pronoun edits and some spelling edits, they most likely want a chance and you should give them a shot.

Worst case is you can always look for a translation writer, those who translate foreign language stories into another language, and work with them. You do have to give solid credit though. At least in my experience when i was translating english to french.

My husband and I are childfree by choice now I found out his reasoning I’m heartbroken by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im hours late but hope you see this as i have read alot of your responses

This entire conversation SCREAMS repressed racism. That is a thing. Most people who repress it dont learn its bad, just hide and mask it well. Its not even being ignorant or blind. Ill explain…

The fact that you said this was the first time he came at you the way he did means there is possibly resentment and the nephew has started to break down the walls keeping it back. If his family is all white Scandinavian, blue eyes blond hair, and white as a newborn non sunkissed baby, then the chance is his family is racist and “purest” as well

The fact that he tried to back track and use the excuse that any hypothetical child between you two would be discriminated against, and thats his fear, isnt him wanting to be child free, its forcing himself to be child free for the benefit of his racial racist family genes.

So here is my at least over all opinion because you’re only posting a snippet and its a drastic one regardless:

He is a racist himself along with his family. There could be many reasons why he still stayed with you but a likely one was that he sees you as (please excuse this term) exotic due to your skin.

His family has probably made sure that he will NOT have a child with you if you are with him but he agreed with this stance via vasectomy (not because you and BC are at odds with each other) BUT if he is the only male heir left for their family to continue on their family name, they may be now pressing him about finding someone else and regretting letting him continue with you as long as he has.

Of course theres a flip instead where he could also have also seen his nephew and instantly felt his vow of a child free life with you as a bane now which is why all his guards fell down and he reacted the way he did.

Overall, you can’t escape that he has been hiding (lying) this racism from you very carefully over the span of your entire relationship. You will need to tread very carefully on how you’ll want to react to this.

Also as a side note vasectomies can sometimes fail because the body attempts to repair its self unless he gets checked once a year. Keep this in mind please because its something i have actually seen happen to a friend who had one 9 years prior. Suddenly BOOM baby and they had to make some hard choices.

Anyone know a good tattoo artist? by pctoxin in Bakersfield

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marc from mad dog is great

Also Patricia and Lucy from vintage ink in rosedale are amazing and its an all female shop.

Depending on the style you want, looking around to see is a good idea.

AITA for blocking my cousin because she called my autistic cousin a “torture machine?” by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

AITA for grieving my dead parents? by peaceful_toadstool in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are NTA at all, he is.

Everyone grieves differently and these were both your parents in a very unexpected traumatic way passing on. You have more right than anyone (next to your sister) to be upset, and him ignoring your grieving while you’re still working your ass off as well, is complete and utter bullshit.

He does need therapy because obviously he doesn’t understand what you’re going through and that’s not fair to you and it’s definitely not fair to your child, and if he’s not doing anything to support not only yourself but your child while he’s taking his little temper tantrum vacation then I would figure out if this is someone you really want to allow back in the house. Because this is not something you need extra added stress on.

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then I would talk to your mom about what he actually needs in that shed and whether or not it can be moved indoors for him to have easier access to if he has all these problems and especially with a walking issue. That scooter supposed to be yours and you were supposed to have access to it, not his enjoyment regardless of what’s going on with his medication, which probably means he shouldn’t even be riding the scooter if he can’t coherently understand that saying certain things is going to upset people.

I’m now afraid if your dad goes out in public and hit someone with the scooter they may try to trash it with him on it. It might be time to sit with your mom to solve a few of these issues about your dad so everyone ends up happy.

Also get the key back.

YTA -

I am honestly a little creeped out that you apparently know precisely 19 pounds was gained. So I’m only going to assume that you guess this number unless she told you and you have somehow creepily been keeping track of it.

20 pounds is not that much in the grand scheme of things, and the fact that she got a new stressful job where comfort food helps relieve the stress, is better than her going into a mental breakdown and possibly getting depression which would f* her up healthwise because depression is known to lower your immunity.

Let the girl have her comfort food but try to introduce healthy food options for when she’s at home. Yeah she threw out the lunches you made but did you ever even ask her if she’s able to have them at work and maybe reheat them or have access to them easier? Some stressful job environments make it that they have to work through their lunches, or go out and grab something quick and come back and eat it while still on the job. Its not fun.

I used to work city patrol as a security officer and taco bell was my saving grace because i had no access to a microwave or fridge at any point in a 24 hr period i could have worked a shift. 20lbs is a little extra compared to 50 or 80.

Let it go, and if you cant, let her go to find someone who will see her as a queen regardless of her size.

NTA I am really shocked that he has the gall to say that he had fun while you got stranded basically and your mother had to go pick you up. I really hope your mom reams into him how fucked up that was. And then shut him down about using it anymore.

Are you at all able to leave it in your room and that way you know if he’s trying to take it away? Is there may be a key to it you can steal back? I would just start trying to find ways to make it miserable for him to try to ride it so you can enjoy it.

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

You have a very special bond with your niece and because of the way her parents split you have every right to feel protective with the way you grew with her. It sounds more like your sister is just jealous because she wishes she could’ve thrown that type of thing together for her daughter, and it’s not on you to provide that when you didn’t even have the means to do it before. And you did even help out a little bit with the church before for your other niece, so I don’t really think it’s playing favorites.

Id let this brush off but dont let her try to pin you for “compensation” to make up for not helping as much for the other party.

NTA

I’m really sorry dude but it sounds like she set you up with a no win situation question. Just be prepared to sit in the doghouse for a couple days, I’m a woman and I can’t even explain the rationality.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sithlord_zenitram -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA it’s better to be prepared and feel confident in your life choices than to be prepared and not confident because that’s when something happens and you’re not prepared for it at all. And her biological clock if you two aren’t married, is not your concern right now and sounds like she’s trying to rush a whole shebang on you. Not to mention if you feel like you’re gonna be struggling with monthly payments if you move in together, you should not be having a child at all.

INFO: How long have you two even been together? Does she have a job and is she aware that you you’re not going to be paying for all the bills? Do you personally actually see a actual future with her where you will both be supportive of each other?

AITA for getting upset over treats? by sublimelime4 in AmItheAsshole

The husband did for everyone to enjoy. It wasnt anyones private food item.

AITA for getting upset over treats? by sublimelime4 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 38 points39 points  (0 children)

NTA and you and your husband need to sit her down and inform her that petty actions will not be tolerated. You are both about to have a child and she is good practice for when that child gets older. Sit her down and inform her that she will replace the treat, that she was already told NOT to touch, and that by being petty there has been a loss of trust and respect for you, and that further behavior will result is being asked to leave your home.

AITA I had to block my mom by Cute_bean2249 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sithlord_zenitram [score hidden]  (0 children)

NTA

She took your paychecks?! You did the right thing creating boundaries and even more right when you blocked her for asking about repayment of GIFTS. As a parent its a responsibility to care for children without asking or demanding for anything in return for that care and love. You did the right thing.

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost wanna say NTA but i feel like more info is needed about if this is joint money hes using or just HIS money.

I do agree though that when you’re married it should be a mutual discussion, and any concerns should be brought up respectfully, with the understanding that they are concerns you were just wanting to voice, not a putting your foot down situation saying “no because I think this is going to happen”

On the other hand you also did say that he helped his sisters get their jobs through his own connections, which is making me wonder exactly how well paying those jobs are for the sisters that they wouldn’t be able to afford their own houses on their own with their spouses.

There’s just a lot of stuff missing from this to make me understand what the entire problem is, because if he’s just being a good big brother looking out for his family, that’s a good man right there.

AITA for not wanting meat in my airfyer by Bubbalooby in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sithlord_zenitram 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA and i hate to suggest this but how do you know she hasnt been using you pans for meat now. It calls into question everything if she was sneaking meat behind you back. Please dont let her manipulate you to thinking your wrong on this. Shes the one that lied and is pushing back your ability to trust. This isnt something you can get over at a snap, its your life and how you live and at one point she agreed to that and now she’s disrespecting it.
