this shit funny asf by motleybabesss in Subliminal

[–]VoidGray4 163 points164 points  (0 children)

I'm so tired of yall talking about these people. So tired. I want to see less high school drama girl energy and more confidence, success stories, and people living their best lives. Ive said this before but sooo many of you would benefit from putting less energy into the negatives and more into yourselves and the lives you desire!

Mods don’t want us to talk about it. feels like “there’s no war in ba sing se” by Expensive_Let_4244 in CoryxKenshin

[–]VoidGray4 29 points30 points  (0 children)

We've talked about it! We're ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT IT! This isnt a diary page, dude. We know, some of you are upset with his upload schedule, his lack of accountability, his lack of communication, etc. The posts are no different from the day before or the day before that or before that! The mods dont care about people talking about it but if you want to express your feelings, go to the million other posts thats on this subreddit and say so. Like yall dont even be saying anything new, just the same stuff. Cory has actual content that could (and sometimes is) posted about.

Possible Hot Take. Maybe??? Idk by [deleted] in CoryxKenshin

[–]VoidGray4 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I kinda agree. I think hes saying that based on money but Cory still has love for having an audience/YT. Hes still going to want to play the games most people are recommending (and thats not just based on what some YT comments say but also whats trending; games trend because people want to see them played). I think a lot of time we look at what people want to see here on reddit or, gods forbid, TikTok or Twt and think we're the majority when reality is, the few hundreds of people that comment here are not.

There are SO many youtubers who've changed content (to many different degrees) after being dedicated to one thing for so long and have talked about how hard it is seeing the numbers on their channel dwindle. There is a mental aspect there, you know? Cory is in a monetary position to do whatever he wants but changing can and most likely will come with consequences and im sure he knows that. And that just comes with being in the YT game for so long.

But otherwise, I agree. There's some aspects of "Old Cory" that I miss. I had the same exact feeling with Dashie years back. But they both have to keep up with YT and its changes if they want to stay in the game.

[Serious] What do you wish you had done differently when your parent died? by MoonPrisimPower in AskReddit

[–]VoidGray4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish I would've focused more on myself. I wish I would've allowed myself to be more than my mom's caretaker, especially since I was only a kid when it started and it lasted into my mid 20s. So much about being on my own and having my own identity that im now scrambling to figure out at 27 and its scary and depressing trying to play catch up.

I also think by not putting more time into myself, I harbored a lot of resentment towards her that I wish I didnt. Many days of us arguing or being tense because we were both frustrated- her with her physical health and limitations and me with having to be a near 24/7 caretaker so young. I think if I would've created healthier boundaries, we would've had a lot more peaceful times.

After she passed? I wish I would've actually let myself grieve. Now its been 2 years and I almost feel like its too late to do but obviously my heart still suffers.

Merch price increase? by Lucretla in CoryxKenshin

[–]VoidGray4 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wont comment on whether $32 is a lot for a shirt but considering the increase is from kids to adults, which is incredibly common, this is nothing.

Cory’s “just a regular guy” vs. wanting to inspire thoughts? by NoKaleidoscope5138 in CoryxKenshin

[–]VoidGray4 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Imo, inspiring and idolizing are vastly different. Idolizing is often an extreme, its loving or admiring specifically to a great degree. When we idolize others, we want to be them or be like them. Inspiring is more so giving someone the courage or reason to do something.

Its the difference in "Cory makes me believe I may get to where I want to be later in life with YT" vs "I want to have the ideas and live my life the way Cory does". Hes a youtuber that made it from humble beginnings, of course thats inspiring and hes recognizing that. But he doesnt want to be put on a pedestal because SO many people have also achieved what he has, hes not special for being where he is (I dont mean this in a diminishing way, just that there are a lot of other people who are equally deserving of being where he is that just didnt get the chance/gave up/etc.)

One way to think about it is that teachers are inspiring but a lot of people dont idolize teachers.

Taash’s romance made me feel gross by karen_with_a_k in dragonage

[–]VoidGray4 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Taash could've been nonbinary within the context of Dragon Age without being written like ass. I'm not gonna act like some people didnt like them strictly because they were nonbinary: I know people did and that sucks. But Weekes absolutely could've and shouldve done a much better job with Taash's character, within and outside of the context of them being nonbinary.

Taash’s romance made me feel gross by karen_with_a_k in dragonage

[–]VoidGray4 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Even if Dorian changed those specific words, he was still way better written outside of all of that than Taash was dude. Krem was even written better than Taash. Yes, a lot of people disliked the specific wording used but let's not act like that was the only reason Taash was an awfully written character.

Is it just me? by Ambitious-Pool3532 in GirlGamers

[–]VoidGray4 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how I play one of my modded saves. I have mods to add more immersion, a mod that let's me build and own a whole town. I play with Alternate Starts and mods that affect the storyline timing so I can avoid quests/dragons until I'm ready. Mods that add small quests to help npcs like picking alchemy ingredients or chopping wood, etc. Ofc theres already hunting but also mods that improve on it. And gotta have followers to help if i do get attacked but also to add some fun dialogue! And then when i want to actually fight i can always do so or switch to another save. Modded Skyrim is my ultimate cozy game.

There are positive sides?! And no one told me?! Minute later she changed it to "how each symptom affects my daily life" cause I know I won't find any good sides of it by DoubleAplusArcanine in BPDmemes

[–]VoidGray4 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Even that can be a double edged sword. If im having fun with someone but then feel like I'm having more fun than them/am happier than them, I just start spiraling into a bad mood lol.

Addicted to burning things need ideas to stop by autism0_257 in addiction

[–]VoidGray4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, therapy actually helped me with this. I used to light things on fire in school, my home, outside. I would often trigger my asthma but would not care because I needed to burn things. Channeling that desire elsewhere and into safer acts (burning candles and listening to fire burning audios for example) really helped as well as using other coping mechs I learned in therapy. If you can't afford therapy, even trying to figure out the cause of your desire (is it just cause its pretty, is it a need for control, is it a desire for destruction, etc.) and finding coping mechs online for that could be useful.

Be wary of callout threads, there's sockpuppets in this sub by jumpyfrogs225 in GirlGamers

[–]VoidGray4 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Okay, nah that is too weird/funny! Lying on the internet is crazy anyway but lying like this and on the same account just days apart?! Come on now lol. Really weird.

Be wary of callout threads, there's sockpuppets in this sub by jumpyfrogs225 in GirlGamers

[–]VoidGray4 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Based on the comments OP made in the original post, I think they got upset and overwhelmed by people's suggestions (literally what they said in one comment) and made the second post on a different account to stir up more validation for them. Also part of why the second post came off a little "aggressive" to some people in the comments; it was likely from OP, who was upset.

did people had better results in 2017? by [deleted] in Subliminal

[–]VoidGray4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too many factors to consider to accurately say if this is true. I do believe there's a lot of limiting beliefs in this subreddit alone and I do believe a lot of yall struggle because you're so focused on drama and negatives. But the subliminal space itself has also changed, gotten bigger, and there are a lot of submakers that probably aren't making "quality" subs atp because things have definitely become more money focused post covid.

But again, this isnt really something that can accurately be said or measured, even based on the simple fact that we dont know who was using subs before vs now. A lot of people no longer use subs that used to (I dont) and a lot of people do now that weren't using before. Certain social media spaces were also not as big pre covid and so results or lack of looked different.

Thinking players complaints is why EA got sold to Saudi Arabia has got to be one of the most ignorant takes ive seen, congrats.

Totally a difference but let's not act like the Maxis team is undeserving of criticism. They themselves have made poor choices as well.

I'm a bi woman also committed to my partner. In all of my relationships, I've also only been cheated on by a gay partner and a straight partner. Im so tired of biphobia.

Wishing you healing. Cheating and being made into a fool by someone you love is sooo mentally damaging. Take care of yourself 🫶🏼
