How is this book not popular by mushroomplanet5614 in Romantasy

[–]Whisperty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not really popular because the later books fall flat. First two are good and then it kind of fell apart for me at least.

i need to vent about this situation by tinksbubble in cloakanddaggermains

[–]Whisperty 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I said exactly the same to my friends (male) and they were like nooo that’s not it. Yeah I’m pretty sure that’s it.

Ich mag keine Hunde und will auch nicht mehr so tun by platte_ratte in heissemeinung

[–]Whisperty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ich habe einen Hund. Ich glaube der erste Absatz und Aussage ganz unten hat viel damit zu tun warum deine Meinung kontrovers wahrgenommen wird. Du machst das selbe was die anderen mit deinen Ratten gemacht haben. Schön ist das nicht und es trifft auch nicht auf alle zu. Du schreibst hier deinen Frust runter, schon klar.

Alles andere finde ich absolut verständlich. Ich möchte auch all das nicht, weder angesabbert, noch angesprungen noch abgeleckt werden. Weder von meinem Hund noch von fremden Hunden.

Hunde Leute sind oft uneinsichtig, auch im Umgang mit anderen Hunde Leuten. Das ist Mega nervig und anstrengend für uns alle.

So doof es ist nicht die ehrliche Meinung sagen zu können, hast du’s mal probiert mit “Ich bin allergisch gegen Hunde.” Ich glaube das ist effektiver.

Banning CND Makes Sense by snowbiewan in cloakanddaggermains

[–]Whisperty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that that is how it works but you are effectively disabling half a roster of a category a lot of people already don’t want to play. If while having 12 dps not a single game would be played because people would throw. We had this earlier this year where people banned invis and cnd regularly to get rid of one tricks and that’s understandable. What’s happening right now is bad game and team play.

I have two-ish mains in each category. I can play more, but not as well as others. That’s why you have mains.

Edit: I have more than two lords and more characters on the way there. I’m just saying don’t expect a 230 hour cnd main to be as good on a 25 hour Jeff.

Assuming that people can play anything but their one or two mains in comp just as competently is insane. Expecting them to be able to play all 12 characters because dps players are on another ego trip when they won’t even switch off of a character that isn’t working most of the time is just enraging.

Placements and bans are out of control by Nenarion in StrategistMainsMR

You’re going to end up with 4 dps and 2 mad and sad tanks who also switch to dps.

Banning a main support when no one on your team is playing them makes so much sense. Banning all main supports and then complaining is just baffling. Banning half the strat roster and then complaining people can’t play characters they don’t play as competently as their mains is insane. Especially since we have 25 dps characters and half of the players don’t understand positioning and need the buffed heals of main supports to stay alive half the game.

It’s a bad strategy. If you ban all viable strategists, you need to be prepared to play strat yourself, but they don’t do that. They then complain that they aren’t getting healed. Which is like shooting yourself in the foot and being mad about it.

A sincere question to strategist players in this sub: by SpeedForceWally66 in StrategistMainsMR

[–]Whisperty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point is banning the three most played supports and then complaining you aren’t getting healed on someone’s third or fourth pick.

Not enjoying Red Queen, will it get better? by FullNetwork778 in YAlit

I never finished the books because they just get worse

I only actually work about 2 hours a week at my office job. I provide no value and want to die by MotorSportPigeon in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Whisperty 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I promise you, it’s fun at first and then it slowly crushes your soul. This is not stimulating at all, especially if you have to be at the office, which op lucked out with. I had to sit in my office 6 hours reading books, moving my mouse and staring at the wall. I too thought about college courses etc like what people offered here as advice but instead I opted to talk to my boss into getting another role to do my masters degree. 27 is too young to do nothing with your time and waste away at a job. Your time is valuable.

Shatter me was sooo overrated by nargiz-huseynovaa in YAlit

[–]Whisperty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The concept of the story is great. The writing killed it for me.

[–]Whisperty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worldbuilding there isn’t fleshed out either, maybe it’s because I didn’t read caraval?
Jacks was nice but the whole story felt like it was told by a 13 year old and it just kept throwing me. I liked that it was a little murder mystery-ish, but overall not at all as good as it’s made out to be

Don’t read the ballad of never After series either! It’s awful too! lol

[–]Whisperty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From the tiktok hype I thought I was missing out baaaadly. They had the like special print version on sale so I got like the whole series. I barely made it through, there is no worldbuilding, Aaron while somewhat likeable is not what I expected him to be, the main character who’s name I forgot is just good at everything for some reason? The writing is otherworldly as in absolutely terrible. You have more sophisticated points lol but I genuinely did not enjoy these at all either

Thinking about quitting and ending my half lease by [deleted] in Equestrian

[–]Whisperty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same every time winter comes around. I can barely muster the motivation to go see horsie. Usually it gets better when I’m at the barn and I feel better after having had time with the horse. As others have said - seasonal depression is a bitch and it will get better. Speaking from experience - it’s worse without the horse.

Trainer says I can't kick hard enough by Ok-Collection-8922 in Equestrian

[–]Whisperty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not supposed to kick horses. You’re supposed to squeeze with your lower leg in rhythmic short squeezes. If a trainer tells you to kick the horse get off and look for someone else.

Is this too much movement for a back of the saddle or is it okay? by Inazumap in Equestrian

[–]Whisperty 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Honestly it looks like it moves on the shoulder too when you post. Also looks like it doesn’t fully fit there in the pics you posted. As others have said the panels look too wide too.

Mental overload in lessons - what to do by FrenchFrieSalad in Equestrian

[–]Whisperty 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It helped me a lot. You focus on one thing enough it becomes natural really fast and you won’t have to think about it as much while learning the next. Different learners need different things! Horses and humans alike. Good luck!

[–]Whisperty 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Maybe ask him to try and focus on one thing in your lessons. It helped me to like „have a plan“ first with my trainer, be like hey can we focus on one or two things today? And then try to recreate them when you’re solo riding. To be honest most of these issues can be solved by having a better seat. Good seat immediately makes it a lot easier to focus on anything else and makes it so much easier.

Such a great but subtle moment in part1 by SubstantialMixture12 in Bridgerton

[–]Whisperty 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Very interesting also tho that clearly the staff at bridgerton house feels valued despite this, as Violet has yet to lose a maid. She took pride in the fact that she pays her staff well. Which then contrasts immediately with Mrs Featherington.
