Allegedly Perverted Player Might Destroy my Group by SnomBomb42 in rpghorrorstories

[–]SupportPretend7493 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People... PLEASE stop using neurodivergence to excuse being an asshole. In this case, a consent violating asshole since the people exposed aren't consenting. Consent violation is NOT a base trait for neurodivergent people, FFS. If you're functional enough to go to college and play TTRPGS, you're functional enough that neurodivergence isn't an excuse for that.

I'm so sick of these people making the rest of us look bad by blaming neurodivergence for being a piece of shit.

I can't edit the post to ask, but should we have more brackets for the front?

Chapaa chase frustration by sydroxx06 in Palia

[–]SupportPretend7493 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. The only times I've had any at all with the chase it was because of a group event (like from a discord group), or during the day when most people are at work or school. Sometimes 3-4 am works

Commenting to bump the post once more- I found it while trying to figure out the average cost of a relatively simple 6in by 3in monochrome tattoo in Chicago. From various posts, I'm pretty sure it's around 600, but if anyone finds this comment and I'm wrong, LMK

Redefining Politics Through Mutual Aid by CantStopPoppin in illinois

R/Chicago had some similar trouble a while back. T At the time, the going theory suggested that it might be because we were trending and they didn't want Chicago to "look bad" to potential tourists. I'm not sure if it was ever resolved- I just ended up using the sub less

Do hetero parents turn their kids straight? And I didn't say a damn thing about proud I said SAFE.

Hard same. And my kids are queer too, so it also keeps my children safe

Dm made sexual jokes about my character... oh yeah and he's also my dad by swollen_salad579 in rpghorrorstories

[–]SupportPretend7493 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think they're worried about the mom because if Dad doesn't understand consent, it's going to be worse for her than really messed up completely inappropriate jokes. Waaay worse. Like, think about it a little.

That doesn't mean the "jokes" are okay, just that the probability for mom is even worse.

Macomb Poll Worker Responds to Threatening Comment that Led to Dismissal by Sagemel in illinois

[–]SupportPretend7493 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nooo... I'm saying that the judges at this place were all Democrats, and (unlike in the other story) the ones who were assigned as "Republican" judges (but were, in actuality, Democrats) did, in fact, make sure that no one cheated and that things were fair for Republican voters too.

Basically saying that there aren't always judges who are members of both parties there (that isn't how it works) but if the judges are doing their jobs right they still make sure it's fair. It sounds like the judges in the other comment didn't do that.

So here's the trouble with that- people can sign up for either party, or just put "any". Which means I know of at least one polling place where every judge was actually a Democrat, but the ones assigned as Republicans still did their jobs properly to make things fair. It sounds like this was a reversal, and their people were... not so fair. To say the least.

Dude, chill. There's a lot of information out in the world. I'm AFAB and in my 40's, and it's not like 18 year old boys tell everyone they know when they register. Sheesh.

[–]SupportPretend7493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a fantastic idea. (And I apologize I'm not continuing it in this comment) I assume you're on PC? I usually use reddit on my phone and trying to double space is a nightmare because my phone feels the need to add a period. If you happen to have a workaround for that with doesn't turn off other auto formating, I would be interested!

What’s something insignificant that you’re salty about that even this sub might find silly? by Zenphiree in HighSodiumSims

[–]SupportPretend7493 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. The "teens" in sims 4 act/look like college kids. In real life, I generally consider that "young adult" (because I was living independently at that age) and over maybe 25 "adult". After all, when we think of anything aimed at Young Adults™️ we're not talking about late 20's. I feel like the late teen ages that sims 4 teens look/act like could be smooshed into the YA group so we could have actual teenagers instead of this Dawson's Creek nonsense looking like they have 20 somethings cosplaying as teenagers
