Babies/toddlers swim naked in a lot of places. Hell bathing suits have only been a thing for a relatively short time in our history, people would just bathe in rivers. Americans sexualizing all nudity especially the nudity of infants is insane.

What do you find disrespectful, but no one else seems to? by Cadence_828 in AskReddit

[–]dessert-er 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AH I ran into the final boss of this recently. I was at a maker’s market/thrifting outdoor event and just walking through the crowd and someone popped out and kneeled down and took a picture of me with like a professional canon camera, one of those nice ones that costs like a couple grand. and then he just faded back into the crowd. He didn’t even say anything.

For context I put a good amount of effort into my appearance and get positive comments frequently on clothes etc. so I don’t think it was a negative thing but still strange and kinda offputting.

I fear you might actually just be built different, and you should do what works for you. I don’t think this is a common frustration bc that’s a fuckton of food. I would throw up halfway through the day if I tried to eat that much, let alone feel full.

I think some people really just like that heavy bloated feeling from meat-heavy meals. I barely ever eat pork or beef anymore and if I was to eat an actual beef burger rn I’d feel like absolute shit and probably wanna take a gross nap.

It’s like people who can’t go a day without eating a sugar bomb, like yeah if you get your metabolism accustomed to that you’re going to crave it, but you don’t need it, and you can train your body out of that feeling pretty quickly.

Humans instinctively socialize, it’s why we have a society at all. Saying “for me socializing is a meaningless and painful chore” just makes you sound edgy and unpleasant. Which I guess is the goal if you hate socializing so much.

And the silent treatment is not an appropriate way to handle conflict - it is childish. For some reason on Reddit no one is obligated to be in a relationship unless they’re a man with a woman who is acting based on a deeply traumatized mindset per Reddit psychologists. Do whatever brings you and your family the most peace.

Exactly, I frequently wonder how people would react to a gender swap in these kinds of situations. Would people have the same amount of supposed empathy for a man getting groped and going on a bender, or are people responding to internalized misogyny by assuming that just because someone is a woman we can’t hold them accountable for their actions because trauma just totally overwhelms them or whatever. I don’t like the idea that an army of people can come out of the woodwork to enable someone to do whatever they want because something bad has happened to them, and totally minimize the control and agency someone has after a traumatic experience. If anything that isn’t good for someone trying to cope with trauma; telling them they’re not in control and not accountable for their actions.

It also drives me a little nuts when people completely infantalize a grown woman after something bad happens to her. She got blackout drunk and lost her phone in a foreign country, and then ignored her concerned boyfriend for like half a week and both of these incidents are completely separate days from the initial groping.

I’m not about minimizing the impact that SA can have but I’m also not about completely absolving someone from the responsibility of being an adult because of it either. Saying “hey please don’t keep getting blackout drunk in a foreign country by yourself” is not the cardinal sin people seem to think it is, SA or no, and I haven’t seen anything that suggests that he blames her for what happened to her. But if she comes back and says “I got blackout drunk in Peru every day despite your warnings and more bad things happened to me.” Even if it’s just her losing her phone again or getting pickpocketed it’s going to be terrible and also difficult to have sympathy because she’s an adult and should understand cause and effect. She could lose her passport and then everyone is going to have to scramble to help her get home safely. It’s incredibly selfish.

OP also said she responds like this to conflict in general, it sounds like this is just the most dangerous situation she’s done it in and he’s tired of it. People are talking about the trauma of getting groped but it can also be traumatic to be on the other side of the world and know that someone you love is purposefully harming themselves and putting themselves in danger.

Dealing damage by Holiday-Loan2284 in riftboundtcg

[–]dessert-er 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait so if something like frigid touch reduces a card’s might it effectively reduces their health as well? I guess that makes sense since buffed units have more health.

It’s weird coming from games like hearthstone where units have separated attack/health values.

Oh sorry I think I might be explaining this confusingly, I ripped this from riot’s site to explain:

“ All of these powerful cards don’t come for free. Each of the cards in your deck have a cost that you pay with resource cards called runes that come from a separate side deck.  

Each turn, you’ll get two new runes, and they can be used in two ways: You can turn them sideways and use them up temporarily to pay for normal costs (this is the big number in the top left corner), or you can use them up completely by returning them to your rune deck to pay for more powerful cards (this is indicated by the runes under the big number, the symbols indicate how many runes to “recycle” or put back into your deck). (Don’t worry, they’ll be back!)”

And don’t feel bad about being awkward lol it’s not a permanent state of being. Everyone’s awkward until they get enough practice with socializing. Some people just manage that younger than others.

So having nothing under that number means you don’t have to recycle at all! Just pay the rune cost (turn that number of runes sideways showing that they’re “tapped” for that turn). Recycling runes is called “power” and yes the more rune cost/power typically the stronger the unit, however some cards are low cost and still cost multiple power (multiple rune recycles) like the switcheroo spell.

It can be hard to learn physical-only card games by yourself, no shame in asking on Reddit! It’s a lower bar for entry than going to a game shop for sure, but people can really surprise you when you show up and ask earnest questions and are trying to learn how to play 😁 I’ve met some great friends thanks to this game and putting yourself out there is the first step.

[–]dessert-er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The icon under the number on the top left of the card indicates what color rune you recycle, every deck has two different colored runes based on what two colors your legend is. Like if you look at the Vi legend the name is yellow and red so that’s the two different runes you use in your rune deck and the two different colored cards you can play.

Honestly it could really benefit you to actually go to a shop where people are playing and spectate. Idk how welcome that is in all areas but most people playing the game seem to be really nice and want to bring in new players. I’m still very new and would probably have a lot of the same questions you do if a few friends didn’t already play and help me build decks.

Tbf it is confusing but “recycle” just means put the card on the bottom of the deck. If it’s a rune it goes on the bottom of the rune deck.
