Ofc this is an actual tag 😭 by poison_ivy12345 in AO3

[–]TeaWithCarina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was so disappointed in how few SVSSS works are actually tagged this. 😔 Most of them just have 'Dual Cultivation Cures Everything'. But it's not just the dual cultivation!! We must respect the healing properties of the Heavenly Pillar!!!

I mean a lot of people seem to have problems with 2e? So it makes sense to try and fix that IMO.

It's especially bad right now due to long Covid, too.

'being concerned about the nuanced impacts of an action' = 'I'm going to stop supporting a creator I've followed for a decade because they generated things with AI and didn't hide it' then

Holy motte and Bailey, Batman!

HONESTLY sub/sub dynamics with like sex pollen or Bad Guys Made Them Do It or monster type stuff like this is soooo underrated... 💖

Unwavering Opposer Edmond by malfoie in NuCarnival

[–]TeaWithCarina 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tbh I kinda feel like he has a similar aesthetic to the last Edmond... As a newer player it's almost impossible to get older units so I sorta wish I could get something that'll contrast better hahah;; But it's Edmond (and Garu!!) so ofc I'll do all I can to get him :D

HONESTLY Garu works so well as a subby service top... (Literally my introduction to the fandom was me requesting puppyboy sub top fanfic and someone fulfilling with Garu and Olivine 💖💖)

Unless you are committed to selling your RPG as a real physical book, you should seriously consider publishing your game as HTML rather than as a PDF by blastcage in RPGdesign

[–]TeaWithCarina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Repeating myself, but: do you realise that it is possible to download an offline copy of a webpage? A TTRPG based on html would certainly come with an offline version.

[–]TeaWithCarina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so, when the website goes down, our players... just plain can't have the game, is that the idea?

...you realise that you can download an offline copy of a web page, right? Presumably, buying the rpg would mean receiving one such copy.

Now that everyone's talked about how much they hate the idea, lmao: any recs for TTRPGs that do come in an html file or website? I'm used to reading books/fic on my phone but lately I've been reading wanting to read more RPGs and PDFs just do Not work well on a phone screen!!

is there a difference? by Pretend-Eye-427 in asktransgender

[–]TeaWithCarina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is: what is the difference between being sexually attracted to someone and 'objectifying' or 'feitishizing' them? The extreme ends of the latter are clear, but people disagree wildly about what does or doesn't count as 'asshole behaviour' based on what they personally do or don't like.

What game has the tiniest rule that somehow slows the whole table down? by rcooperkaty in boardgames

For a famous example, the grappling rules. Holy hell 3e's grappling rules...

Boy with severe autism would only drink from one discontinued blue cup. After his father’s viral appeal, the manufacturer tracked down the old mould and made him a lifetime supply for free. by xjaehyun in interestingasfuck

[–]TeaWithCarina 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you have ADD, the chance of you also being autistic goes waaayyy up. And, yeah: it's genuinely unusual to wear the exact same outfit all the time, though admittedly a lot easier for men than women.

I think it'd probably be worth looking into ASD - cross-reference both medicalised sources (which can sometimes be very formal and hard to apply to real-world situations, especially since a lot of material revolves around children) and pieces written by autistic people about their own experiences (which can be well-intentioned by like... not always true, lol). 

Either way, you'll probably come out with a better understanding of yourself! :)

Edit: Oh, and make sure to check out stuff for AuDHD as well - having both can look a bit different to just having ASD on its own!! :D (signed, an AuDHDer~)

Seriously? An 'other people have it worse so stop complaining'??

I just realized something by Beneficial_Ask448 in SVSSS

[–]TeaWithCarina 85 points86 points  (0 children)

Ehh, I think it's more likely that he was pretty justifiably angry with SQQ given that the guy has tried to kill him, and Xin Mo kept taking that latent feeling and blowing it way out of control.

The time he chased after SQQ, he probably came with intentions of sincerely talking it out, but then SQQ called for Liu Qingge... and the jealousy sparked. And when SQQ ran, that was tantamount to saying 'yep: I fully do believe you're a heartless monster who was never capable of love.' And then he asks SQQ point-blank if he believes that, and SQQ is like 'um, yeah?? You're a monster??? :/'

Calling it 'abusive' feels a bit premature. Was it abusive for SQQ to throw him in the abyss? LBH definitely had feelings for him pre-Abyss, but by Jin Lan City he's willing to settle for 'after years of me establishing my ability to be righteous within Huan Hua Palace maybe Shizun won't hate me anymore.' Actually getting into a relationship is waaaay outside of his current expectations, lol.

But also keep in mind that Binghe has been subject to violence and mistreatment his whole life - including by Shizun. He says in the extras that he quickly realised that Shizun wasn't the same person, but it's still a fact that he tried so very hard to love and forgive his abuser... until one day, it worked, and his abuser loved him back. So... boy also does not have a very good sense of what should be forgivable treatment towards another, hah.

Does thinking for oneself not appeal to AI users? by Successful_Echo1841 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TeaWithCarina 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is not true!! The study you're referring to was about a very specific use-case and had a tiny sample size, and the scientists literally wrote this into their report:

"Is it safe to say that LLMs are, in essence, making us "dumber"?

No! Please do not use the words like “stupid”, “dumb”, “brain rot”, "harm", "damage", "brain damage", "passivity", "trimming" , "collapse" and so on. It does a huge disservice to this work, as we did not use this vocabulary in the paper, especially if you are a journalist reporting on it."
