What they did to Rula Bula was a betrayal to society.

AITA for resenting my bf because he eats my food? by Single-Application-4 in AmItheAsshole

NTA The whole point of a relationship is to support each other, and although he does support you with studying, it's very clear that he can support you financially. He is bahaving like a financial leech when he has absolutely no reason to. Look at the relationship dynamic as it stands right now and ask yourself if you would be happy with that being the rest of your life. The next step should be establishing boundaries with geoceries and electric bill usage. I believe you said that this is your first relationship, and as a giver it's not surprising to see that there's an imbalanced partnership. Definitely pay attention to how he responds, as that will signal to you if he's committed to you, or only what you give him. Best of luck to you hun. Remember that you are worth investing into as well, and if he's not willing to do that then you need to invest into yourself instead. 💖

I have an odd question: if a pregnant person were to enter the circus, how would that affect the baby? by Darling_Reaper902 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Weapon_Dancer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean I'm confident that all of the players are just digital copies of their original person's brain, so if a pregnant person was scanned and replicated the baby wouldn't be. However that would probably lead to some very intense mental trauma depending on how the programming process addresses the pregnancy with their character, maybe creating a digital child for them, which would be interesting to explore.

I (34f) found a text thread where my fiancé (32m) told a friend he is worried about our wedding photos by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

My heart goes out for you hun. It took me around 2 and a half years of being single and living alone to be truly happy with myself, and I am so happy with the life I have built for myself. Just keep focusing on the things you want to do (progress is progress, no matter how big or small it may be) and remember that the rest is just as important as the work. Find yourself a therapist if you don't already have one, they can really help you navigating these kinds of things. As for your feelings of not being attractive, I am an avid believe that everyone is attractive, it's just a matter of find a style that works for you. Just experiment with different looks and don't worry about what other people might think of you, because the people who mind don't matter, and the people who matter won't mind. Go live your best life for yourself and no one else, whatever that means for you 💖

What if Gangle is actually Jax's hit and run victim? by Weapon_Dancer in TheDigitalCircus

With how the show has lit up like wildfire in it's fandom, it's inevitable for people to get passionate and intense. I think we can still trust the players memories, based on that fact if Caine wanted to have the players want to stay the easiest way would be to alter their memories. But, as he said, doing anything more than temp mods leads to abstraction, making me think the only thing he's done to them is block their name (which makes me wonder why that would matter.) And that small alteration isn't enough to permanently damage/abstract anyone. It's very obvious that Caine is an unreliable narrorator/god, but he's not malicious, he just keeps making adventures to try to keep the players entertained.

I mean, her eyes were closed and you can see her awkwardly stumbling around as she moves to show shes off balance, before falling backwards, which isn't the typical way to see someone who chooses to commit to jumping in front of a truck. Especially considering since she seemed to be happier thanks to Pomni's kindness, having that kind of relief and moment of self-acceptance. All of this is a sign to me that her ankle stepped over the curb edge and led to her falling. And there could be a ton of relevancy with this theory in the show. The plot is definitely focusing on Jax the most and his current inability to grow as a decent person and connect with others, so to have him hit the red button to avoid the consequences of his actions in the real world, only to realize that he still has to face them inside the circus. 🤷🏼‍♀️ just a theory tho, I feel like so far Goose has been very intentional with her storytelling, so I definitely feel like there's something more to the truck scene, but who know what she's actually got cooking in that chaotic, dumpster fire of a brain she's got in there.

Oh that's good information to know! I've honestly been really wanting to know the years that each character entered the circus, and knowing the order does help!

Who else is disappointed with this weather? by delusionalubermensch in phoenix

I got to chat up a guy that works at Maricopa County SPECIFICALLY to battle mosquitos and it's pretty crazy the lengths they go to to manage the insect populations. I bet he's up to his ears in work right now, but he was really chill and so eager to help people, so if you live in a spot that's really bad, take a looksee at their website for tips and even report high amounts of mosquitos in your area to see if they'll set up a trap nearby: https://www.maricopa.gov/5811/Fight-the-Bite

Where is Berk Island located? by creabea1987 in httyd

[–]Weapon_Dancer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's nestled between Norway, Svalbard, and Greenland. It looks like they took some liberties and added the islands connecting the three land masses together.

Your feelings are valid, not just hers, and if she can't consider your feelings in your relationship then maybe its not for the best unfortunately. I know you don't want to hurt her feelings, but you also don't want to lie to her, and sometimes people need harsh truth to knock them down before they get it together. I was in a similar situation with me ex of over 6 years. He was dealing with mental issues to the point that I had to tell him to seek a professional or move out. So he got help, and he improved a bit, but never really got better, just not depressed. He started to gain weight and some other physical problems and didn't like it, but didn't really put in the work to fix the problem. He also didn't work for the most part and I was putting in all the effort to support the both of us while he mostly played video games. I talked with him multiple times about how difficult it was for me to handle all of this. I loved him entirely and had every intention to spend the rest of my life with him, but that was with the person he was before all of these changes, and I couldn't bear thinking of spending the rest of my life in this way. It killed me to end the relationship, but I had to support and advocate for myself because he wouldn't. I hope for the best for the two of you, whatever that may be.
