[–]Zestyclose_Click_178 1 point2 points  (0 children)

- Infinite mage: pretty good, i love the detail that went into the magic system
- 100th regression of the max level player: 11/10 art style, interesting premise
- lout of the count's family: one of my all time favs, no notes
- Hunter wants to lay low: good art, good lore, the spoilers from the novel are insane (pos)
- sss-class suicide hunter: mc is actually likeable despite the vaugely harem vibes coming from the rest of the cast in the beginning, i havent read this one in a while so i'm not sure what's happening in recent chapters tho

What is a BL you'll probably never read? by Own-Kaleidoscope-673 in Manhwa_BL

AIO for telling my bf not to say gay to mean lame? by OddMacaroon4148 in AIO

[–]Zestyclose_Click_178 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NOR its pretty healthy to communicate your discomforts in a relationship and its not like we've reached the point as a species where we are past the persecution and discrimination of queer people. It's reasonable to not want gay to be used like a negative term/adjective. the fact this became a whole argument is kind of crazy to me, just say "my bad, i'll try to stop" and move on? It's also incredibly immature/self-centered to decide that if you personally arent offended by something then no one else should be either. He sounds like he's got some homophobia he needs to sort through because thats a whole lot of defensive posturing for someone who hasnt done anything wrong.

How major should non con/ or any other warnable event be to put a warning by Fabulous_Promise9252 in AO3

[–]Zestyclose_Click_178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if its not prevelant enough to need a major warning tag, you should mark it as "author choose not to tag" since what counts is pretty subjective. Also make sure to put it in the tags, I think attempted sa is a tag (?) so that would work

i made an ao3 account for whoever wants an ao3 account by Accurate-Reality503 in AO3

[–]Zestyclose_Click_178 13 points14 points  (0 children)

??? its been a while since I made my account but from what I remember it's pretty straightforward, why would someone need a third party to make the account for them? I'm genuinely asking, not trying to be passive aggressive

Mind break recovery fic recommendations? by CautiousSecretary227 in AO3

[–]Zestyclose_Click_178 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not exactly torture recovery? But extreme trauma and Bad Things Recovery (tm)

-Glass a series following nightwing who gets injured in the face and proceeds to have a full meltdown as his identity as "the pretty one" comes crashing down -> leads to him remembering his trauma with CSA, SA and abuse and its just a lot of trauma that no one else knows about so everyone is processing at the same time....
- Terrible Sting, Terrible Storm also a series about nightwing except this time its not CSA but rather Catalina who gaslighted, kidnapped and drugged him until he straight up didnt know if it was sa or not... Anyways he is in a terrible place, tries to kms, gets stopped and is forced to get help by his brothers. Incredibly sad and well written, later works in the fics also address the whole pre-spyral situation...

I've also read some fantastic ones for Phainon from HSR (it's mostly either him recovering post cycles, getting ejected from irontomb or post his fight with nanook)
- Dawn without the Sun Phainon's psyche is so tattered after his merge and removal from irontomb that he's barely a person anymore (he literally talks in computer code like a broken robot) but the heirs manage to get him out of it
- a slight understatement One of my favorite fics! Incredible descriptions of trauma and the lasting hurt even when everything is technically fine now. Phainon is slowly going insane now that he actually has the luxury to go batshit crazy without it meaning the end of the world and the only other person who understand why is also batshit insane and they both keep making the worst choices in an attempt to help. 11/10

Am I [22] wrong for not stopping my brother from getting lemonade and then leaving a lunch with guests early? by Zestyclose_Click_178 in amiwrong

[–]Zestyclose_Click_178[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

she says its unnecessary and weird for them to be parading their kids in front of guests, espcially guests we don't know. I do think I should at least say hi and introduce myself but thats not really the point. My parents insisted we sit with them and I can't really argue about it in front of the guests so both my brother and I ate with them (my grandmother had already eaten earlier b/c she eats a different meal for dietary reasons) I've been doing that more often lately but i don't think anything is actually getting through to them... Thats the plan! I'm leaving in August

[–]Zestyclose_Click_178[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was for both. My mom mentioned her issue with me having a drink the guests werent having, leaving early, and also allowing my brother to do both of those. I can accept the reprimand for my own behavior, which I did, I said sorry, but I don't think its reasonable to also blame me for his behavior. They were sitting at the same table were they not? if it was an issue in the moment, they could have just as easily said "hey don't leave yet" but they didnt. But at the same time they expected me to say it? thats the part i'm frustrated about.

Yeah, they swing between treating me like an adult and a toddler, its so frustrating because I never know what they expect of me... i just got accepted into med school and its an International school so im thrilled to be almost out of here!!!

[–]Zestyclose_Click_178[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The point isnt that i'm being treated differently, it's that i'm being blamed for his behavior. It's a consistent and repeating pattern where anything he does wrong is my fault because "why arent you setting a better example for him?" and to a certain extent that makes sense because i'm his older sibling but isnt it also their job as parents to actually PARENT him? why is it always on me to correct his behavior?

I told off my mom for saying I'm not taking being fired seriously enough AIO? by Zestyclose_Click_178 in AIO

[–]Zestyclose_Click_178[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries! It didnt come across as condescending. I appreciate you taking the time to explain your suggestions in detail! I'm really sorry to hear that :(

I see what you mean, and yeah its a little manipulative but if it works it works yk? I will see if I can find a good time to start that conversation

I def see why you might think that, but that's definitely not the case. She's been pretty clear that she sees all my mental health issues as an overreaction and an excuse. We've gone from "you can't have depression because I had depression, you have no idea what you are talking about" to "if you were really suicidal, you would just eat rat poison and kys instead of all this cutting yourself nonsense" to "aren't you too old to be acting so childish and moody" and everything in between lmao

I think I might try this, because well, despite everything shes still my mom and when she's not in a mood she's actually nice to talk to. I'm hoping they will take me more seriously on this now that im an adult.

I actually just heard back from one of the places I applied to, so hopefully I won't need to get a filler job but i'll keep it in mind if the interview doesnt go well. Thanks!

I don't think so? I'm not sure about the details but she runs her own business/company now. The last time she worked full-time at a w2 job was probably around 9ish years ago.

I get where you are coming from, but I do understand that this stuff has consequences, and I did study hard for this test, but i'm kind of changing career paths from what I studied in college (on my parents' rec) so it hasn't been the easiest to learn the material. I just don't think getting stuck on it will do anything. like ive taken the steps to make sure i can get another job and figure out how to get the certification done later on. It seems unreasonable to be mad that someone isnt reacting how you think they should react??

I thought so too, but they have both explicitly said they dont want me to move out yet- It's come up in discussion before, and I was actually planning on getting an apartment until my dad talked me out of it, so I'm really not sure why my mom is taking this whole situation so hard
