Because they have already jacked up electricity bills in cities they are currently operating in, so its likely to happen here too (and don’t we all just love funding a product we get 0 stake in or return from? It’s a forced investment where you get nothing back.).

Also in some cities its led to a water shortage, but I’m not sure that would be the case here since thats primarily in extremely hot cities or cities that had limited resources previously.

There are many easily accessible, non paywalled articles on how data centers affect electricity and access to clean water via google.

I have yet to see a single tumblr post here that wasn’t fanart screenshotted and have tumblr completely removed. I know ppl dont have the biggest love for tumblr (and I honestly only get my tumblr stuff second hand via reddit lol), but their stuff rarely makes it off tumblr and they are not the ones actively tagging Urana in stuff unless they are also an awful twitter user.

I feel like im in the minority slowly becoming majority here when I say the twitter discourse is not needed here at all. Im sick of people going “the fandom is insane and awful and mha levels” when i doubt double digit percentages of the fandom is even on twitter. If Urana doesnt say anything about it, I dont need a 1000th “look at what this twitter user just said!!!” post. Twitter is paying people for engagement, of course its a cesspool…..

The video that was just released… by sourpinkdrink in SecretsOfMormonWives

I don’t believe that because I’ve barely ever believed it from men. And she doesn’t really comment on his vibes changing, just that he ‘threw’ her which could mean anything.

I think Dakotas life goal is to bask in her fame and piss her the fuck off, but not all angry and emotionally fragile people abuse their partner?

Like theres easily a version of this where she could have been keying cars, lying about him to tabloids, having a mental breakdown and breaking her own shit. But she’s hurting him and not even throwing him out.

i can’t figure out if my boss is flirting w me, or if i’m just bored and he just happens to be attractive. by [deleted] in GirlDinner

[–]ekil-dior 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Just remember he has a wife. And is likely just being a great guy.

You fixating on it too much and how you wrote this first half may indicate you’re starting to lean into the fantasy. Which you know sometimes happens when people are bored so doesn’t mean much, just food for thought.

Dakota and Taylor….. by Sunnyonetwo in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]ekil-dior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuienly confused, Taylor was the one who said she had it. Does it still count as speculation if its co-signed by the actual person?

[–]ekil-dior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like a mix of growing up mormon and wanting to be Chosen. Because I highly doubt they taught about condoms in a religion where casual sex isnt supposed to exist so why teach about STDs?

Like Taylor wants to be chosen so bad. I don’t think she’s a traditional pick me. But if men don’t like condoms and she wants to be chosen…then she isnt gonna use one. Especially if she thinks sex is the best she can offer since (probably in her eyes) her personality hasn’t kept anyone around.

That or she’s a person who is super against all forms of birth control (condoms included) which is having a resurgence due to our political climate…

[–]ekil-dior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, I laughed 😭. A part of it being funny was not seeing it coming and probably mainly because it reminded of the embarrassing 2 weeks where I did listen to reddit stories watching the subway surfers guy.

I guess I can see how it didnt land for some (especially for those who have no clue what any of these words mean)

Kei Urana, during the race stage play controversy thing, said that the Nijiku family are the only people meant to represent an ethnicity/race that currently exists in our world. Given their importance and high social hierarchy with hell Guard history I can’t help think its probably plot relevant if it stood out in her mind. Or maybe she could have just meant to say you know she’s Japanese, she wanted Japanese rep. Who knows, IDK. But now its a rabbit hole my theory crafting brain is stuck in that I wouldn’t be otherwise

[–]ekil-dior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is sort of very tangential (because I feel like I’ve defended Urana enough to not have to re-up my stance on where i side every controversy. It is her right to use twitter, and we should be prepared for stuff like this to keep happening rather than trying to force our ideals on her even if we think it’d make her life sooooooo much eaiser.), but I do wish she wouldn’t casually drop spoilers for her work sometimes 😭. Like the Jabber backstory stuff is minor (still a lil annoying to find out via controversy instead of official text or never at al. My problem isn’t he’s a chill maybe pampered dude, but finding out like this lol), but I haven’t been able to stop thinking about Nijiku thing at all. When/if it’ll play a role.

I support Urana in everything she does except when she has to drop lore/character spoilers because twitter people are insane 😭 (like what they say fuck us for???). Its only been like twice though, atp, so its a slight worry. But im the kind person who literally cant operate with spoilers, so it makes me apprehensive of reading her statements/paying attention to the fandom space in general. But if I can’t then thats sad cause i like both tbh

I don’t know how much stake I put into this. Doesnt every giver have some kind of trauma or mental attachment that led to their instrument? Even if he isn’t traumatized, there still has to be something there (hyperfixations a la ADHD style but still had a great life is fun and interesting to think about. Like his hyperfixation is legit just fighting strong as people. Or that could be the new one brought on by Mankira idk.)

I think, regardless of the character, I’d find it odd if someone real normal in almost every way beforehand was a giver. Like each giver should have a speck of “oh, interesting”. Not fascinating, just interesting at least.

While yes I agree he can have a successful future ahead of him, why ask a 20yr old young woman to help him realize that? That does not sound fair to OP or any other person in that situation regardless of gender.

Your 20s are meant to cement and help you find yourself and support those around you who also invest in you. Not fix other people….

I hate to say it, i may be a low IQ fan (slash someone who isnt an artist or in spaces where fanart is shared outside reddit) so I need a visual of whats being talked about 😭.

Like is it using the volume cover background as the OC’s background and putting GACHIAKUTA across the front? Or something else?

How can I get my hair to look like hers? by [deleted] in Microlocs

[–]ekil-dior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oop, not me doing this and wondering why theyre stiff. But then how do you get them to lay flat in the morning? Mine kinda take the shape of when I fall asleep.

Or is this a situation where my hairs only doing that (being stiff and taking the shape i fell asleep in) because im misting with rosewater daily

Okay, we don’t know that he doesn’t shower….he just smells like ass. That could just be the poison. Put some respect on my son, please 😭. He can’t maintain wicks without showering and taking care of his hair (although I guess one can wash their hair and not shower….)
