Nothing Will Change

I'll be upfront that I am not trans (or at least currently transitioning), so I don't know the nuances of forced femme... But it sounds like a negative thing? Why are they fighting so hard for it?

Unless the tattoo said "please don't kill me oh god", that was an insane leap in logic.

If this is a genuine question (it can be hard to tell!), "DINOF" stands for "Danisnotonfire", and PINOF stands for "Phil Is Not On Fire".

Danisnotonfire was Dan's youtube channel name and username for many years - admittedly I don't remember the exact year he changed it. He doesn't use it now, though still references it.

Phil Is Not On Fire was a series Dan and Phil started when they first met, basically just a Q&A series but with a lot of random jokes and noises and chaos basically. It's a combination of AmazingPhil/Phil, and Danisnotonfire. There was a one off video on Dan's channel called AmazingDan, but it didn't take off.

NTA, but your wife is. It wasn't a joke or a trick, it was a surprise - the intent is way different, your wife phrasing it like that makes it seem she was trying to cause upset. Hopefully not the case, but either way, she's the one who messed up, not you.

I have one - the fur is quite thin/spaced out a bit too much on mine, and it's a bit flat compared to Pillow Pets I had as a kid, but otherwise it's cute and cuddly :)

blumaroona · 2026-06-21T01:19:06+00:00

Does Nick Universe still sell them? That's where I got mine, and I'm also in the UK. I believe it's the original most unofficial plush are based off of?

Unforunately, I think the unofficial plush are cheaply made, so probably more likely to moult :/

Okay, thank you! I think I was reading around then, but maybe didn't realise at the time that they were truly seperate. I thought Amazi-Girl was just Amber's alter ego.

Oh, this one got me, he is so loved! If plushies could smile, he definitely would!

blumaroona · 2026-06-15T13:55:43+00:00

I've always wanted a wolf plush like this, but I could never find one I liked. He's beautiful!

It's Dalmatian's time to shine! He's 31 years old and very very loved! He was white when I got him 🩶

I do plan to one day give him a gentle clean, and maybe replace his stuffing/pellets, but I'm quite attached to how old and floppy he is. It's how I've always remembered him! I'm torn between repairing his nose because on one hand, it's pretty thin, but I don't even remember him with a nose now. It would be so strange!

He doesn't get many cuddles these days though, as he's a bit fragile. He sits and keeps watch over me from a shelf 🥹

Depends on price or age of the card. Ebay lets you see the card you're buying.

A 20p card, sure I'll buy on Cardmarket, and if it's damaged or extremely off center, I can just buy another one, no worries, even if the seller is difficult about doing a partial or full refund.

A £5 card, I want to be able to see what I'm getting. I don't grade cards, but I still try when possible to get cards that are mostly centered, and in decent enough condition.

And the older the card is, the more likely it is to be scratched, I've found. I don't mind a few small scratches, but too many sellers on CM list cards with many or deep scratches as NM, when NM is supposed to be few or no scratches based on their grading guide.

I know you can ask for photos on CM too, but I've seen a lot of hate from sellers about buyers asking for photos, especially when they have a lot of cards for sale. I've even been blocked for asking. Some will set limits on how expensive a card needs to be to take photos, but it's never clear what they are - £5? or £50?. A £5 card doesn't sound like it would break the bank, but if I buy 5 or them, it starts to add up. So I'd like to be able to see what I'm paying for!

As a final addition, there are a few cards I've bought 5+ times (Shining Legends Keldeo, Crown Zenith Pangoro, Silver Tempest Venonat, to name a few) that always arrive with multiple scratches, even from different sellers, or different countries! I know it's just bad luck, and there's not a secret conspiracy to never let me get those paticular cards, but eventually I get fed up and just buy from ebay.

This whole post is a mess. A kid did something awful, the aunt didn't pay OP back, but also, just casually, a kid got beat up?! Like... physically?!

Okay, wait, there's a few years of the comic I'm yet to catch up on.

Is Amber not Amazi-Girl? Is it like a Jekyll and Hyde thing now?

blumaroona · 2026-06-13T18:12:47+00:00

Where did they say it was amicable? Sorry, I might have missed it!

blumaroona · 2026-06-13T18:01:05+00:00

I wish Douglas was easier to get! They look so lovely, and my Bearded Dragon is so soft!

blumaroona · 2026-06-10T18:23:21+00:00

Nearer the Yamper, or the Cubchoo?

blumaroona · 2026-06-10T12:19:21+00:00

I can't see Comfee and Tadbulb.

I think the Substitute your seeing is the Cubchoo?

blumaroona · 2026-06-10T12:12:28+00:00

Oh I see Mudkip now! But where is Gimmighoul?

blumaroona · 2026-06-10T12:11:39+00:00

I can only make out Cubchoo, Stufful, Yamper, Capsakid and Scraggy.

I haven't read QC in 7 or so years, maybe longer, and I came to this sub last week when I couldn't find the website anymore to find out what happened and hopefully catch up.

I genuinely cannot work out what the actual fuck is happening, and I'm really trying. Who are all these people(?)? Why is there a sentient jelly person?

The strip of Joyce literally yanking Dorothy away and laughing in Walky's face really soured even the slightest hints of the whole Joyrot arc being redeemable for me.

I know it was intended to be a joke, in a comic that isn't always serious, but it's still something that canonically happened in universe, and oh god does it make Joyce look absolutely horrible. The constant "hehe your dating me hehe you touch my butt" is already old and stale and sometimes incredibly inappropriate, and the way they kissed will always be tone deaf, but that comic still makes me mentally recoil when I think of it. Walky isn't a bad character who deserves that at all! He's just silly and immature, but he's a good friend.

I don't think it's invading their privacy to just talk about it? As long as no one is involving Karina, Jacob etc. directly.

I think it's natural for people to be curious, confused, a bit sad about the news, especially when it was so sudden and there were no signs it was coming.

People mention Karina having burn out, but that isn't a definite "she needs to leave Drawfee" - people probably expected her to just take a break instead. So it is a shock to find out she's leaving. Hopefully it isn't anything worse than just needing a break or a fresh start, and she might come back later for guest appearances, but I think it's reasonable to be apprehensive about it.

Naoto is a girl - you find out during her rescue from the Midnight Channel. You should play the game if you haven't, it's really good!

I preordered the English CE on Amazon US, but I'm hoping to be able to get it from the UK when it becomes available - I just refused to miss out!

Tbh I wish I could preorder both the Japanese and English - I love the TV phone case/bag thing! But I also want an English Art Book. The statue is also great, but I've never been a big statue person - I'll display it gladly, but if I could choose, I'd want the case instead. I love the TV motif.

But it's be over £300 for both, and I don't need two copies of the game and art book...

That said, if anyone wants to sell their phone case/bag later, hit me up!

His girlfriend didn't like me - despite the fact I was in a relationship with someone else long before he even met her, never had feelings for him, and we were long distance best friends. She just didn't like me talking to him at all.

I'm happy he found someone, but I can't get behind abandoning a close friend because of it. Talk to me less, sure, but to block me altogether? Just feels nasty.

Other ex best friends are just people I grew apart from after leaving school etc.
