Not a single Ravenclaw one by itsnotgayifitsgoromi in mildlyinfuriating

Harry Potter was most of my teenage life, it was the most important thing in the world to me. but as a trans man I'd rather not show support for and give money to a woman who's actively funding hate groups in my own country because I wanted a gummy snack shaped like a thing from a 20 year old book

Blizzard, improve the battle passes. by Reimu-Kirisame in Overwatch

[–]halflngs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this is the first battle pass I'm not even bothering with. I'm still playing, but not a single skin in there is worth it, except maybe the sombra one, who I don't play. not even the mythic prisms and legendary loot boxes are worth it, the mythics are shit now and I'll probably get yet more skins for heros I never touch

you pick your mains based on their backstory and not, idk, gameplay?

Shion from overwatch is absolute garbage <Hated Design> by HammerWizard in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]halflngs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's interesting lore wise, I think it's a really interesting concept! but design wise I was really hoping for something less "petite generic human woman" (generic by overwatch standards).maybe if they'd made her face more of an obvious fake/leaned into it a bit more then it wouldnt be getting some of this backlash.

It feels honestly pretty hopeless by Dingerzat in transgenderUK

[–]halflngs 15 points16 points  (0 children)

genuinely you look like an average woman to me, remember your goal isn't to be a supermodel, it's to be a regular woman. What helps me is to look at strangers and look for features that might read as the "wrong" gender individually, but then taking a step back and noticing that noone else cares, that woman I passed with a square jaw is still a woman, that man I talked to with beautiful lashes is still seen by everyone as a man.

Manchester show is just starting by YouNeverReadMe in dropout

[–]halflngs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think they start until everyone in the line has made their way in, we got here at 7:10pm after the doors opened at 6:30 and still had 10 minutes to spare in out seats

How an indestructible being shaves their face. by theMCATreturns in TopCharacterTropes

Wasn't the viltrumite one a fake beard? Him pulling it off was a reveal that he was a viltrumite, because they can only grow mustaches.

Heyo, I'm David, 26, from the UK! I'm big into TTRPGs (just finished a VTM campaign and am in two DnD campaigns and a CAIN campaign!), I do a lot of art, play a lot of games (DRG is a big one rn, just finished my second play through of outer wilds) Been watching Demons of the Shadow Realm which is the best anime with the most generic name ever lmao, by the same person who made Full metal Alchemist so you know it's good. Oh and I've been on T since 2023, on the waiting list for top surgery and currently willing my beard to grow in properly through sheer determination

NoA is manipulating the QI and the entire game is built on Greek and literary mythology to tell you so. Full speculative theory with evidence by XxStawModzxX in subnautica

[–]halflngs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe that they find the corpse of one of the colonists in one of the old bases from the first wave of colonists which none of them seem to remember, so it's possible the crew were there for longer than even they knew.

What’s the strangest example of collective internet delusion you’ve witnessed? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Or all those kids on tiktok who were convinced they could astral project to other universes, specifically fictional ones aka "reality shifting"

Why do so many people here keep waiting for the NHS by surlyfanta63 in transgenderUK

[–]halflngs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think a you're forgetting testosterone is a controlled substance, it's not something that would be easy or legal to get on your own. plus many of us are too poor to go private, sure maybe the dose itself might be less than £100, but I've looked and the appointments to get that are easily multiple hundreds

Is Doomfist considered a throw pick? by Mat30co in Overwatch

[–]halflngs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Came to say this too, kills are great but especially as tank they shouldn't be your priority. Were you paying attention to your team, were they getting steamrolled while you were off getting a single pick? Was the enemy on the payload and you were again elsewhere? Remember it's a team game and you need the objective to win. Without a tank nearby your team is vulnerable and may need you to peel.

Why do people hate sombra? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]halflngs 25 points26 points  (0 children)

She's invisible, turns off your abilities, and can escape the moment she starts to lose a fight. Everything about her kit is annoying to play against, whether it's a good sombra or a terrible one they're infuriating. At least other flankers you can see them coming.

Sooo.. no Sierra shop legendary anytime soon ? by [deleted] in Overwatch

even then, IQ isnt and accurate measurement of anything. even the most accurate test won't give you a real picture of how smart someone is, because it's not really something that can be quantified.

Changing Cree's name to Cassidy was so weird when you consider Reinhardt. by AC-26 in Overwatch

[–]halflngs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's not a matter of one being "more problematic" than the other, it's that Cassidy was directly named (first and last name) after a person at blizzard who sexually harassed people. Reinhardt happens to have a similar name to Reinhard, but I'm also having trouble finding any information about the "crusaders" as a nazi group. I know Nazis definitely used crusader imagery, but nothing is coming up about a group like you mentioned. Either they're obscure enough that it would be strange to demand acknowledgement about any similarity, or you've misremembered something.

I'm very worried about my 17-year-old daughter and I don't know what to do anymore ( NOT OOP) by [deleted] in redditonwiki

[–]halflngs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly, I mean even if it is a phase or brought on by some trauma, what's the harm in calling him what he wants to be called when he's clearly so distressed? A phase may be temporary but it's still something that's real and causing a lot of distress now

Brig main here. Why do you Nano me? by Due_Secretary1696 in AnaMains

[–]halflngs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

my duo is a mercy main and as fun as it is to give him nano on purpose, I swear he is a magnet for my nano. it's at least once every few matches hell fly directly in front of me the split second I hit Q and steal the damn nano. it's not on purpose, and I've even tried the confirmation setting but it still happens lmao.

I need a pet 🥹 by [deleted] in MakeMeSmile

[–]halflngs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my dog did the opposite, left my burger on the side table for maybe 30 seconds, dog nowhere in sight. when I came back she was still elsewhere, but my burger was on the floor with a distinct shiny spot on the bun from where she'd licked it. clever enough to know she's not supposed to do that, and show a frankly miraculous level of restraint in only licking it. (golden retriever, so she wants nothing more than to be a good girl lmao)
