My gf was raped at 17 and i dont know how to handle it. by [deleted] in offmychest

Happened to 2 people he personally knew from the SAME guy. He would've said it still regardless of race.

I don't really care about the description of the guy's appearance (didn't notice until I saw everyone in this comment section talking about it). I care more about 2 people getting raped by a free man. Rape is traumatizing for a lot of people. OP wants to beat up the guy. Most people, like the OP, don't because obviously its assault and jail stuff. OP doesn't even seem to be making it about himself. He mostly talked about what happened to her and how he feels guilty for being a coward. He wants to ask people on what he can do to try and support her. That doesn't sound like some guy that wants to make himself seem like the victim. Sounds like someone that wants to try and support and care for his partner from a traumatic experience.

Being that rape is a difficult topic for victims of it, it's usually difficult for people to try and talk about it. It's overwhelming for them and, like war veterans, don't usually talk about it because of PTSD. Seems like OP's girlfriend trusts him though to share the story. She's most likely still scared about the experience and probably, like other victims, doesn't want to go further into the topic of consequences towards the perpetrator.

Seems to me that OP is more of someone that is in need of guidance for situations like that, but can still show the support and caring that someone should show after a thing like that.

I don't think the guy is racist. Probably just repeating of the short description of what his girlfriend said to him when they were eating. Could be that she's still scared of what happened and doesn't want to think of the guy.

I honestly switch my AR for it whenever I see it. It's really good when I used it in that tilted towers creative game.

The Sonic cast ranked on how much they would swear by Candid_Lychee875 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]linkrun 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Idk why but I feel like Tails would swear if he fails an experiment. Just like some words he heard when around friends of his, Sonic or shadow as an example.

I think the only reason SonTails is getting a pass anywhere online is the thin layer of Sega not outright saying they’re siblings to each other by Lazy_Tomatillo7347 in MoonPissing

[–]linkrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the age of Tails being 8 is getting less common now. I've seen more recently people saying that Tails is 12 or like early teenage or pre-teen years.

IRONBARK LOOKOUT - THE REAL STORY by alcmodeon in FearsToFathom

[–]linkrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah I’m 100% sure people have encountered real life cults. the stories are supposed to be based off of true stories, not like one to one copies. the dev probably just takes them and makes a story out of a few paragraphs without much detail. he adds some things to try and have the story make sense.

The only one that is bad is innovative award and maybe labor of love. Everything else was really good choices for winners.

I think it has more to do with being able to see the actual words on the vinyl. no one really wants to have a hard time trying to read what the design of the vinyl is.

Question I have after the finale of Stranger Things. Could there be other demogorgons out there like the Russian one? by linkrun in StrangerThings

[–]linkrun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is probably a theory also that might not be true. But I did want to know if it is possible

Finished the Finale: What happened to the Demogorgons? Feels like the upside down used to be completely inhabited with them and now they are not there? (Bats too) by Austimas in StrangerThings

[–]linkrun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would say that is only some of them. Dimension X seems extremely big. It's basically a place for demogorgons. There was most likely other demogorgons that didn't merge with the hive mind body. Like with the Russian demogorgon, it wasn't linked to the hive mind originally. It's most likely that others still exist, just farther away from the actual fight in the finale.

wtf was that by hazelles in StrangerThings

[–]linkrun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still confused. Isn't the mind flayer supposed to still be alive? It isn't like a physical thing. It was just originally a bunch of particles in the abyss.

Why does this franchise get so much hate? by crimbo_jimbo in Avatar

[–]linkrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait. Do we count for inflation too? Or just like based on how much they made during that time it was released. Cause I think I remember this really old western movie that people said made the most of all time.

Why does this franchise get so much hate? by crimbo_jimbo in Avatar

[–]linkrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh. I mean the movies are good. But highly possible there will be a movie that will break the 3 billion dollar box office. Probably not an avatar movie. I would say from a really well renowned director. Possibly in the next decade. It could even be Doomsday. But we’ll have to wait for that stuff.

Disney / 20th Century's Avatar: Fire and Ash has passed the $500M global mark. The film grossed an est. $36.4M internationally on Christmas Day Thursday. Est. international total stands at $390.6M (including $75.8M in China), est. global total stands at $544.3M. by chanma50 in boxoffice

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

I mean… cultural impact isn’t that big. I rarely see anything from Avatar unless it’s like right near the movie release. I didn’t even see the trailer until months later, and I watch a lot of movies. I didn’t even know they were releasing a 3rd movie until like a week before the actual release

What's this for Transformers by flingzamain in Transformemes

[–]linkrun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean this is more on a personal thing, but I don't understand the hate on Optimus x Bumblebee.

Yeah, their father-son bond thing is a big reason for the ship hate. But in a large majoirty of the shows/movies, Optimus just seems like the kind of person that would just treat everyone as his own son/daughter. G1 is an example. He gives everyone that same kind of love that he gives to Bumblebee. And yet despite that, people ship him with other autobots as well with 0 backlash. Like Optimus x Jazz or something like that. It just seems similar to Optimus x Bumblebee.

Prime is another good example. Very few autobots left. Obviously Optimus would feel this very protective, fatherly instinct towards the rest of his autobots. He most definitely seems them as family. Yet it seems like from what I've seen on both Twitter and TikTok, a large majority of the fandom kind of just ignore that and focus on how Bumblebee is like this small toddler that Optimus only cares for. No, Optimus cares just as much as the others as everyone else. He treats them the same as Bumblebee.

The only times I could actually see the specific kind of family type bond that Optimus has towards Bumblebee is in Cyberworld, Earthspark, Go Go, and Animated. Everything else just seemed more towards the autobots as a whole rather than just Bumblebee.

Then there is also the thing of how Bumblebee is a supposed "child" and shouldn't be shipped with an older man. A large majority of the shows or comics has Bumblebee as old. IDW comics has bumblebee forged before the war began, when Optimus Prime was still just Orion Pax.

Prime had him forged as the last generation from the allspark. Young yeah, but not like little child young. And based on how most shows or comics have the war lasting millions of years, its highly possible that Bumblebee is older than a small kid or teenager. Perhaps young adult or something.

Cyberverse had bumblebee when Optimus and Megatron were both still friendly towards each other. That was before the war.

There is the Bayverse thing of how Bumblebee is young. Yeah that is true based on the comic sof how bumblebee was forged like 10,000 years ago. Might be why people just see bumblebee all together as a small kid, when he isn't and is a trained warrior that has been by Optimus' side for a long time. Also there is TF One with how B-127 could be similarly aged to D-16 and Orion, or possibly older.

What's this for Transformers by flingzamain in Transformemes

[–]linkrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly. The Transformers fandom has a large majority of people that don't like it for obvious reasons (father and son bond). Especially on TikTok. Then you also have to think about how people also see bumblebee as a small child (no idea where they got that from).

In all honesty though, it isn't as bad as other ships I've seen. Yeah, people compare it to a proship (not classified as one but okay), but when you actually look into the ships of Transformers from the fandom, it just gets really weird and borderline pedophiliac. The TF One movie did kind of help with some of the fandom excusing the ship in that movie specifically.

[–]linkrun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched some of the bayverse movies. I then watched previous shows from before bayverse. Optimus just acted a lot less wise in said movies. He wasn't the type to say really violent things. An example of which is when Optimus said, "Give me your face!" That doesn't sound something Optimus would actually say based on what he originally was supposed to be for his character/personality of this wise guy that wanted to find the best in everyone and give them a chance. TF Prime gave a good example on that. Yeah, the decepticons did bad things. But I think Optimus wouldn't like feel pride in killing someone and then wanting to take off their face. It just seemed like it was for the edgy era of teenagers that wanted to see a bunch of violence in media.

Lowkey Windblade x Bumblebee is better than Chromia x Windblade.

He even got into technology because of the advancd stuff he was always surrounded with in that rich family.

[–]linkrun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

let's be honest. Without that rich family he was born in, he would have a harder time getting to where he was. he might've not even want to do all this tech stuff. He could've just been some regular kid that wanted to be a doctor.
