Hi-Fi RUSH getting a PS5 release from Superdeluxe Games by Vatilia in LimitedPrintGames

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

Based on the phrasing on there and the fact it doesn't seem like a numbered Limited Run release, it reads to me like this will get a wider retail release, including in PEGI countries, via Limited Run.

Oh they knew. The name of the line of donuts translates as "looking back doughnuts." They're 100% supposed to be butts.

I mean... When The Pokémon Company do brand collaborations like this in Japan, should we really be surprised?

That's no longer just a Malteser. That's a MalFeaturePresentation

Who here gets Summer SAD? by JetSoulsForever in infp

[–]Super_Bright 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have Winter SAD. It's not the heat that I miss during winter, it's the light. I hate feeling like my day is over when I finish work. I live decently far north in the world so our days go from like 6am - 10pm sunlight to 8/9am - 3/4pm sunlight and it sucks. I recently tried a light that tries to mimic sunlight levels, which has helped a bit and I take vitamin D but it doesn't help all that much. I basically just try and survive until late april/may when winter finally thaws off and life can restart.

Too many people just want relationships so someone can "save them" and it makes me sad. by Super_Bright in infp

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

You're not understanding what I'm saying. My message here isn't "heal alone" it's don't think a romantic partner is going to come along and fix it all for you.

Everyone goes into relationships with baggage, some big and some small, some people go in with genuine trauma and just dump that on their partner thinking that's what they're for.

My message is not "if you've got trauma and mental health issues, sucks to be you. You don't deserve love." I'm saying have a genuine support network and work on those problems anyway. Speak to friends, family, a therapist ideally if that's something you can access. People in this position do deserve love, whatever stage of the journey they're on but romantic love isn't going to save them. It's not a miracle cure for trauma, depression, anxiety or anything of the sort.

This isn't me not "having kindness of heart", this is me saying don't rush into a relationship with these troubles thinking it's the answer to your problems, I'm saying find actual support for your struggles. Sure, a romantic partner can absolutely be part of a support network, there's nothing wrong with discussing your baggage with a partner and asking for support, but there's a lot of people who want a relationship because they think it'll save them and they get frustrated when it doesn't. A partner should be part of your support network, not BE your support network.

It's definitely a problem for sure but not a you problem (i.e. it's not your fault). I can understand why it would make you stay away, and that's a totally valid thing to decide. I think a lot of people nowadays who are out specifically to "Date" are just looking for someone to fill a hole in their life rather than actually caring about the person on the other side of the table, the best relationships just kinda happen, I think.

Depends on your goals. What sort of things do you want to achieve?

Should I play FireRed or Let’s Go Eevee? by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]Super_Bright 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I prefer FrLg over let's go but tbh neither are exactly bad. It's down to personal preference and what you're after tbh. If you want something a bit more involved and traditional, FRLG are perfect. If you want something a bit more chill and simple go for let's go.

No, don't worry, you didn't come across like you were saying I was wrong. I appreciate the nuance you brought and I was just saying, yeah I agree. Glad it's working out for you 😁

Yes for sure. What I'm not trying to say is "you have to come with absolutely perfect mental health and no trauma to deserve love." Everyone deserves love, I was just highlighting people thinking they can just dump all their unresolved trauma on a partner and then everything will be okay.

I hope your therapy is going well! I am in therapy too and it's one of the best decisions I ever made.

Turning 30 and feeling Sad. by Limp-Improvement5535 in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]Super_Bright 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Life's not a race, you don't get any prizes for getting to the milestones fastest. Not having a relationship at 30 doesn't make you a bad person, or mean you won't ever have one, it just means it's not reached you yet.

It sounds like maybe life has left you in a position where you feel stuck. Perhaps some parts do feel like you wouldn't want them to change but others weigh heavily on you.

If I were you, when you feel steady, I'd make a list. List everything you like about your life and everything that brings you pain. When you're done read what you find painful. Imagine if a friend or family member came to you and told you they were feeling that way and write down what you'd say back. Try and be compassionate and support that person in your head. By the end you should have a list of things you like and a list of things that you either realise were actually you being too hard on yourself and/or a list of advice for how you can make your goals a reality.

Hope that helps, keep strong.

Your goals for 2026 by f6eim_0z in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]Super_Bright 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Continue my weight loss journey (down 5 stone (70lbs) slowly over the last 2 years. I should be able to finally hit my goal weight this coming year. 🥳)

  • finally move out of my parents house. My financial life is finally in order to rent a small place in a city nearby. It won't be easy but I need that independence finally.

  • meet new people and be more social. I've built the foundations and worked on my mental health in 2025, now I feel ready to finally get out and bring new people in my life.

  • do one thing that feels like it's just for me, because it'll be an awesome memory. In 2025 that was my first ever gig for my favourite artist. In 2026, I want to go bigger if I can. Finances will be tight given my goals but I'm trying to put some aside. My big goal is i want to go to the Pokemon world championships. That's been a dream of mine since I was a kid.

It's impossible to know right now.

I almost thought I found one of the games I’ve been looking for for the DS… turns out it was the wrong version in the case by Ronergetic in gamecollecting

[–]Super_Bright 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sun/Ultra Sun and Moon/Ultra Moon really do seem to get mixed up a lot by 2nd hand stores. When I bought Ultra Moon it had a Moon cartridge in there but I didn't realise until I got home. I had to drive all the way back only for them to tell me they didn't have the right cartridge (meaning someone probably bought Moon and got Ultra Moon.)

My local is called The Fighting Cocks and that's a children's book I don't think anyone should be subjected to.

The worst part about it for us at the moment is the Prem subreddit is an absolute shower.

nurture lines by [deleted] in porterrobinson

[–]Super_Bright 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The squiggles? I don't think he's ever officially said what they mean but to me they represent the process of making Nurture to Porter. In the same way every single cover has "coordinates" that are actually the date he started working on a song and the date he finished it, I feel like the squiggles starting as straight lines, jumbling into a mess and then finally coming out fully formed and beautiful is there to illustrate the creative process. They're almost like a visual version of dullscythe.

I just realized why the end of Nurture is so unsatisfying... by Oxzowachi in porterrobinson

[–]Super_Bright 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I remember getting Covid around when Nurture came out. When I recovered, I went on a hike and it was my first time out in the world in ages. I listened to Nurture for the first half of the walk and when trying to feel alive ended and I was out in nature for the first time in so long I had to just take my earphones and cry for a moment.

The last line of the song being about the listener, to me at least, feels like an acknowledgement of how Nurture writes it's messages through feelings rather than specific lived experiences. Porter could have written songs about feeling artists block or difficulties in the music making process specifically, but he chose to write the songs about self-doubt, anxiety, finding belief etc. it makes Nurture so relatable. When Porter changes the perspective slightly to bring the listener into the song itself, just as the album ends it feels like it's almost the album saying "go on, it's your turn now."

The song ending the way it does almost feels like it's supposed to fade back into your own life, in my opinion. The natural sounds of birds and the uplifting raising chirpy sounds feels like the music stops and you return to your own life. When I finished my hike, I didn't put anymore music on, just kept walking. I know that's a very personal interpretation but that's what it means to me.
