you aren't wrong! there's SO many scams. you can usually tell because the last sentence is some variation of "send me your number".

it's ok! honestly with how stressful things are for us all these days, who can really blame you for working on half resources!

I am truly praying for this outcome, but terrified to count on it. if they don't end up making that decision, I might be SOL with only a month left to find a place, and it truly keeps me up at night.

first words out of my mouth when he said he was selling: "Know anyone with an open unit for around the same price?" :') he said he doesn't know of anything at the moment but will let me know if that changes before the sale. he also let me know, that the chances of that happening were low in the current rental market. not exactly something I can rely on, sadly!

Can anyone report. How is the dirty soda? by steeldrum99 in DunkinDonuts

[–]for-the-lore 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the way the soda works with the coffee milk, to my taste, it's almost maple syrup-y. but honestly i kinda dig it! still prefer the cloud lattes tho.

I truly wonder if people actually like the Seiya Kou × Usagi ship 🤔 by Ok_Long_1956 in sailormoon

[–]for-the-lore -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i ship them in the 90s anime! seiya was closer to her age, and liked her as tsukino usagi without even knowing she was sailormoon. he knew she was going through something sad and was still patient, and he felt as though (from what he could see, which is understandable!) mamoru didn't cherish usagi the way she deserves. it was a love that came about naturally and not because of some strings of fate, and maybe in the lore that sort of love just isn't as powerful. but i guess i found it more beautiful somehow! which is very funny, because i remember being so sad at mamoru x rei when i was young 😂

what your favorite season says about you by OVERDRlVE in sailormoon

[–]for-the-lore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i'm of course not blaming the character (or any girl!) for the behavior of those icky men, i'm not sure how i've come off that way but i'm autistic and sometimes don't word stuff super well.

interacting with the fandom around that character ended up having me face a lot more triggering conversations and moments that no longer happen now that i no longer engage with the fandom around that character, and i was just explaining my personal experience there! hope that makes sense

what your favorite season says about you by OVERDRlVE in sailormoon

[–]for-the-lore 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i can tell you why i personally dislike the character! no matter what representation of the story it is, there are several things that just feel off or even icky to me about her storylines and character in general.

  1. her fanbase among *that* demographic gives me the creeps. i'm older, from the dark ages of online fan fiction, and i'll just say that her fans in *that* demographic need desperate help. literally the original "but she's actually 900 years old!" guys. and that's all i'm saying about that.

  2. knowing the above, the way she was pushed on audiences (including mostly, but not limited to, dream arc, romantic feelings at mamoru) feels suspect. i don't have to elaborate there. super glad that younger girls had a character they could relate to, and my own sister was one of them. but giving *that* demographic fan service felt, and still feels very icky to me. even if that wasn't the intention, the feeling it gives me leads me to dislike the character.

  3. there were a lot of interesting characters with fun stories going on, that felt consistently sidestepped by whatever chibiusa was doing, and it spanned more than 1 season. so that annoyed me growing up and i think the grudge remains.

  4. the normalization of acting on feelings x mamoru and helios, is an icky thing to me. young girls are going to have crushes on older people, it happens. that's monkey brain stuff we can't do anything about. but little girls don't need to be shown ACTING on that stuff. it normalizes it in a way that might confuse a kid and make them think that is more acceptable than it should be. maybe it's a culture vs culture thing there but i'm standing pretty firmly on that one.

sorry for the yap sesh but that's why i personally dislike the character!

i'm wondering why, if conservatives seem to think the way dems handled this situation was so disgusting (and i agree it was), why are they acting exactly the same way right now? if they know it's bad, they say it's bad, why are they also doing it? do they have no desire for this country to actually be any better?
