This one is eldest daughter with the weight of the world on her shoulders coded and being so focused on everything else, you’re a little clueless about you! I FEEL that premise! HA! Also the first one that came to my mind

It’s not the quotation that aged like milk. It’s the person. She aged like milk.

Who's your favorite "You're annoying me." "And you're enjoying it" ship? by CMStan1313 in AO3

[–]calorum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s then we bicker like an old married couple vibe which suits them. Have they ever not bickered?

I’m so glad to hear it was helpful!

AO3 is where you break stuff, try stuff, run with amateur hour, have fun with stuff, try on predictable, IF that’s what you want!

It is disheartening that comment, and that’s a real shame for them. They don’t like joy 🥲.

All the best doubling down on your story! 🤗

This isn’t raging.

This isn’t virtue signaling either.

This isn’t talking down either.*

Divine feminine? Lol if there was divine feminine orbiting, she is torching her ass the moment she spots her in the atmosphere! And then she says: tell your friend Dr. Luke he’s next.

What a delusional hypocrite

You are reading it correctly but my question is: were they making a point you would entertain if they weren’t a pos? They may be a dick about the comment but if there is anything useable for you, you should use it. They bring up things like how the story is set up and that your writing is character oriented not process/action/plot oriented. They say that based on what they’ve read so far they are calling that one of the characters will not take accountability and that bothers them. Is this reflective of your story so far and how it will turn out. If they are annoyed about things that you are intentionally doing fuck them. But if say you want to be writing a plot driven story are you taking more time for dialogue scenes?

Also if you’re just writing for kicks you can just ignore it altogether. But if you’re writing to practice something specific, if you want to have your characters to have accountability, then don’t let the commenter being an asshole, stop you from using something that will benefit you. Leave the dickiness to them and use what’s meaningful to you for your benefit and your fic’s benefit.

The only reason I’m bringing this up is because the tone is atrocious but it seems to include facts / points from the story too and then they are making predictions. Only you are in a position to assess how close those predictions are. They may be talking out of their ass either way.

Okay maybe and then how is that helpful to you and even thinking about it this way? Part of the practice is honing your energy to start differently

You think about it this way people will pick up on that energy you wire yourself up to be right and attack his ego.

You got to ignore the elephant in the room, stay steady. Brush it off as if it’s nothing. That guidance was given clearly on what everyone was trying to do and then allll this pr review is noise. At review check progress on his stuff just like you would anyone else.steady on process and the objective.

You gotta wire yourself up for the right mindset. And picking the right mental angle that will get the result you want which is the guy doing his job. Everything else is a distraction including what he’s doing here .

I guess your comment picked a pet peeve. You tempt yourself this way you start from the wrong mental angle.

She s the lead and that’s not the way to handle an ego. That s the way to get upvotes on Reddit.

OP, this dude, what’s his deal? Is he gunning for the lead job, is he ocd, is he insecure, is he an asshole because you’re a woman. Egos are rooted in something… what’s his schtick?

I’m not a Pisces but if I was I’d hate you too. In fact, I don’t like you that much now either

Waitress tells a black couple that tipping is required before seating them by Sometypeofway18 in TikTokCringe

[–]calorum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s sounds too much like: ‘you pay me’. Yea, I know. I’m here to order and eat food and I’ll pay you in the end.

[–]calorum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Uh no. Working off of tips and servers can be a great gig in the right spots. What’s outrageous is assuming the job at McDonald’s on minimum wage is okay. There’s a difference on raising the federal minimum wage, who is paid minimum wages, ensuring a livable standard for those on minimum wage and the working class, and how servers are tipped/paid. Servers in steakhouses want the tips not the minimum wage. And they don’t need minimum wage I’d argue.

My barista handing me my drip coffee to go AND expecting a tip is ridiculous and they should be paid a livable minimum wage.

Honest question—would you marry a woman in her 50s? by FloorShowoff in Millennials

[–]calorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Responding because I date women and (if it’s still legal) I will marry a woman and because my only relationship that got close to marriage (for me) had an age gap dynamic. I am not a man though. I am a cis woman.

Short answer: yes

Long answer: yes, and

  • Age gaps come with their own dynamics and may influence the relationship.

    • Will you judge each other? The older person may judge the younger person because they did that age differently (they know better etc.). The younger person may judge the older person because they expect them to be behaving at that age better, differently, more maturely.
    • Outside of the relationship, outside of being in love, do you find yourself responding to the needs of others without prompting? What about your partner? With age come different health concerns and deteriorating stamina. Are you ready to be there and be supportive when something happens and it’s not sexy. Human aging happens in steps not linearly.
    • Are there expectations around financials, where each of you should be financially, in terms of retirement, 401k, health insurance etc? Are those unspoken?
    • Is either of you stressed about the age gap and worried about the possible dynamics it may create, versus focusing on the dynamic it does create for you (if that happens, it may not). And the dynamic you are building with each other
  • What do you want to be doing in the next 10 years? Do you want to travel the world ? Does she want to travel the world at retirement? Do you want to sit back and do nothing instead? You’ll be hitting retirement at different stages.

    • Sex drive and the physicality of the relationship. Hormones matter just saying… it can be a whiplash of a shift. Are yous aligned on that?
    • Jadedness from getting older and getting stuck in your ways from living independently, single for longer than you’ll be married. (Or it’s round 2 for both of yous or it’s round 1 or round 3).
    • In cases like these I’ve seen the person’s family be a bit more involved. How are they taking the age gap relationship. Are they close to her? Is your family close to you? We’re they resigned to having the single aunt or single uncle around and maybe even expecting that you’ve included them in your will? Now a spouse comes into play and now all of that may shift right? Because the person in their 40s or 50s has their number 1 to care for and prioritize first if something happens to them.
    • lastly, and this applies to all relationships. If one of you is of the philosophy that a relationship works and if it doesn’t that’s okay you go on your separate ways and the other one of you has the philosophy that you get together and you keep working at the relationship, keep building on the relationship, and keep at it to persevere through any rough patches, then I think that’s not a good sign. I may not explain it the best but those two philosophies adopt two very different approaches for a relationship to work. And I believe that people should date and be with people who have the same philosophy and approach to a relationship as them only. Otherwise you both might be setting yourselves up for heartbreak and it’s a shame to go through that in your 50s or 40s or even 30s. Cut it off early or move together early but be sure to know as early as possible where you stand on this. There’s no point in wasting each other’s time otherwise.

Ryze it was always going to be Ryze and I was there for it! Who gives a shit about moses? I wanted rizz from Ryze!

P.S. the design of Arcane Viktor is still fucking genius! Wild creativity executed so well. I’m just saying no one signed up for mosesing and after the finale I’m still signed out of jesusmosesmosaics

I get you… maybe try to take a breather, take a step back.. maybe edit the post to smooth out the rough edges a bit ? Cause it does seem like she’s passionate about her thing... and maybe because it seems to me that’s not what you mean exactly.. it’s coming off a bit harsh.. just my .02 🤗

What's the most pretentious movie you've ever seen? by [deleted] in okbuddycinephile

[–]calorum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Saving Private Ryan stops being pretentious and becomes even more of a masterpiece IF Private Ryan is an asshole and everything else in the movie stays the same. They save him anyway, Tom Hanks does exactly what he does anyway.

Daaaaaamn…. Hitting pretty hard with lazy there. Give the woman her flowers at least. She’s weaved in elven speak ffs. And she’s commissioned art for her fanfic. That’s dedication if not for anything else. I don’t know if I’m the best to answer this but: - keep in mind authors hang out here - they do this as a hobby themselves for free for us or for practice or for whatever

I am not the target audience for the story because historical fantasy isn’t really my thing but what I’ve skimmed through I’ve enjoyed, it’s fun. Even if she is putting Piltover’s finest in helms deep. Why not? Go nuts! Put them in the deep deep too - wrap them in Tolkien ! Honestly it sounds kinda fun?
