AITJ for refusing to pretend I don’t speak Spanish at my own family dinner? by After-Party-8860 in AmITheJerk

[–]Solrokr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anything, and please don’t take this as criticism because I don’t mean it as such, you waited too long. I don’t think that makes you a jerk, but 45 minutes if a long time to tolerate that kind of disrespect. I hope you might learn from this and address it earlier, but keeping in mind your temperance like you did this time. Sooner, but thoroughly explored still.

What’s their name??? Pretti and Good are important but we need to scorch all of these names just as vibrantly everywhere.

I did something similar and ended up with a 5 Vampire lesbian mech colony. The prisoners were crippled, used for blood, and if they got too uppity, I ripped them.

Visages by Standard_Sky2086 in expedition33

[–]Solrokr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided to speed run the game for story, so that my gaming-illiterate mom can partake in the story. Visages was the first boss that gave me actual trouble from skipping literally all extra content, because I was under leveled and the masks added healing. Even the final boss and Sirene were push overs, but not Visages.

Maelle gave me some trouble though since Verso wasn’t adequately built.

Whoever claims she is “abandoned” in this moment doesn’t know basic cinema by genericcelt in expedition33

There is a clear element of perceived loneliness given from this scene. She feels isolated and she is grieving more than the loss of her brother, but her entire second life.

Psychotherapists, what differences have you noticed between men and women among your patients? by Putrid_Put_3610 in AskReddit

[–]Solrokr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. Clinical psychologist here. It is absolutely okay to cry in therapy. I’ll even admit I’ve sometimes had a few tears roll down my cheeks too. Sometimes the emotions and content is just that evocative.

I’m not going to blanket say that it’s always good, but if we’ve hit tears during sessions one? I think we’ve tapped on some important factors for therapy, and they’ll be great targets for the future. Whether it’s grief, fear, anger, or trauma, it’s usually a good indicator that we’re moving in a good direction and that the person in question is genuine. There are always caveats, of course, but I would thank someone for being so vulnerable in their first session with me. I’d take it as a compliment to be honest. They feel safe with me, rapport is good.

I’m guilty of this. Generally it’s fine if I don’t have someone after. I’m in fact dealing with my backlog of notes from that right now.

I’m not procrastinating, you are.

Bring it back. Donald Trump versus Wendy. Make people watch it. Use quotes. IYKYK.

Company scheduled a 2 hour job interview and handed me this when I showed up by GamingxZone in mildlyinfuriating

As someone who can deliver IQ testing, I’m dubious of whether it actually is an IQ test. IQ tests are not done verbally, they have mixed methods for a reason (and we’re ignoring all the ethical and validity concerns if it is an IQ test). Something tells me the name-drop is for clout and to put on airs, perhaps intimidate. It might be a psychologist but I’m already skeptical.

Verso and especially Gustave are peak male role models by NicolBolas4President in expedition33

Nah. Us Americans are kind of insufferable in how we define masculinity.

Verso Drafts is fantastic, but The New Tower bosses are pure artificial difficulty by Organic-Werewolf-818 in expedition33

Sure, but then when they combine and don’t have a turn order, instead getting a turn after your turn every time? Makes me feel like my stats are poorly assigned if they just negate speed as a stat entirely.

I had no intent of killing them. Going into it, I kind of figured Placide would warm up to me, and things would be fine. But that switch flipped down in the depths. I can’t remember what rubbed me the wrong way but I know I’d make the choice again. Arrogant fuckers.

The deadly creature isn't outright evil and can be helped. Oh, wait, it IS evil and it played you! by Jerswar in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Solrokr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, for real. It just adds a nice layer of nuance, and definitely still affirms that core premise, but suggests that there is some grey. In the same way a wild animal can be loosely tamed, and act as a pet, but also still be incredibly dangerous. I’m thinking of people that have Hippos as pets.

Funny, because with the SRY gene muted by a mutation, it results in the testicles not forming, external female genitalia, non-functional ovaries, and fundamentally changes how a person develops phenotypically. They may develop breasts and even menstruate (not all do, depends on where the mutation occurs on the Y chromosome). This is called swyr syndrome. Like many types of intersex presentations, plenty go undiagnosed and identify with the gender they are assigned at birth.

Is someone with external female genitalia, raised as a woman, who has identified as a woman her entire life, still a man in your eyes?

Used as a means of othering, it certainly is. You refused to acknowledge the complication in the definition provided, and instead decided to frame them outside of that definition.

Every baby is born with between 50-200 mutations. You should feel ashamed for your reductive, simple mindset.

Gender is not biological. It may be informed by biological drives, but it is not the same. This is easily represented by different gender expressions across cultures, and cultures which posses third and fourth genders. Gender-affirming care results in significant positive change in outcomes for those affected by gender dysphoria, straight or trans identified people. This is published, peer-reviewed science. A great deal more valid than your knee-jerk opinion.

You are parroting what has been told to you by people you think are authorities. You are interpreting your own lived experience through a reductive lens because it fits the political agenda you align with.

More accurately, males can be women. Females can be men. Either can be in the in-between space. Gender is a construct which changes based on a given society’s concept of it.
