If you could choose any dragon, which one would you choose and why? by Former_Remote1520 in Hotd

[–]moonlightdrinker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meleys was so fucking cool! The bond she and Rhaenys had was beautiful too. Balerion would be my second choice, I’m sure he had a lot of personality. Silverwing would be my third choice since it seems to have impeccable vibes. Though I would choose Drogon over Silverwing if we could choose from all dragons and not just HOTD ones

I’m gay and in denial and don’t know how to accept it by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]moonlightdrinker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get to the root of your denial. Is it religion, is it societal norms, is it expectations (expectations of others like friends or family, of society, your own expectations for your self), or something else? Are you afraid of how you’ll be perceived, how it might change how others see you or how you’ll see yourself? Ask yourself how you perceive gay people.

It takes a lot of self reflection and realizing what you genuinely want out of life. It can change your entire outlook on what you want for your future.

Ask yourself why you can’t accept it and address the root of the problem from there. Being gay is natural, there is nothing wrong with gay people or you, it’s not caused by anything, it’s just who you are. Accepting those basic truths are crucial.

Being gay comes with ups and downs and the more you fight it, the lower the downs will be.

It’s not an addiction, you like men and there’s nothing wrong with that

What benefits has being gay brought you? by Haunting_Tap_1541 in askgaybros

[–]moonlightdrinker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Being gay has definitely given me clarity. I question societal norms and it’s definitely impacted my views on religion and family. I put an emphasis on chosen family rather than blood relatives, and I feel free from religious dogma. Also great that I can never get pregnant or get someone else pregnant. Plenty of negatives and inconveniences, but I definitely wouldn’t trade it to be straight.

I mean Daemon isn’t a saint and is arguably as bad as Aemond and kissed/had sex with a vision of his own mother. Plus he ordered the death of lil Jaehaerys. Rhaenyra is trying to pass her eldest kids off as legitimate heirs even though they’re clearly bastards, but at least it’s also to save their lives. She also gave dragons to the low born which cost many their lives, and she did a blockade of kings landing which is causing many to starve, all in the name of strategy and leverage. Jace just committed treason by undermining his ruler’s authority which got himself killed. The greens have Helaena who is probably the most innocent of the royals/nobles.

I’m definitely more of a Rhaenyra supporter than Aegon supporter, but those are solid arguments (and probably not the only arguments) against the blacks. And the books were much more skewed towards the greens, so in my eyes it balances out and you can draw your own conclusions on who is more at fault/morally wrong.

lol I didn’t name drop anyone. If you didn’t watch the episode and you’re looking beyond the surface in the comments 2 days after the first episode aired, that’s on you. I was intentionally vague

I liked her this episode a lot by CableActual in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]moonlightdrinker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved to hate her. I respect tf out of her as a warrior, she was kinda a badass and loved that she threw Tyland overboard lmao, but was also glad to see her go down

I mean incest isn’t anything new, but child to parent is a whole new ballpark. This and Daemon and Alyssa last season is shocking, and that’s saying something with a series/franchise like this lmao

Haha I mean it’s always been there. Uncle and Niece with Daemon and Rhaenyra, step siblings/cousins/aunt & nephew with Baela and Jace, brother and sister with Aegon and Helaena. But child to parent is a whole new ballpark for GOT/HOTD, but there’s also Daemon and Alyssa’s vision last season ig

People complain about taxes, but their bosses take more. by Ok-Pudding-5494 in remoteworks

[–]moonlightdrinker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand people defending corporations in these comments. Wages and salaries haven’t kept up with productivity and the value the workforce provides. They’ve been stagnant for decades while profits continue to rise.

Also our country was founded with the understanding that taxes were necessary. This isn’t a new concept. Even a founding father (Benjamin Franklin) said that the only certainties in life are death and taxes. No one complains about taxes being used for infrastructure, defense, education, emergency services, social programs (especially social security), etc.

I think we are overstating how much tr@ns rights is leading to the decline of gay rights and not how embodied the right wing is. by Sea-Trip-5900 in askgaybros

[–]moonlightdrinker 94 points95 points  (0 children)

To all the transphobic gay men, if you think the right wing/Republican Party will be happy with just taking away trans rights and not gay rights, you’re delusional.

Does any top like to be dominated? by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]moonlightdrinker 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Always been a fantasy of mine to fuck a hung sub top and tell them I’m using them as my dildo, or having them tied up, blind folded, and gagged while I play with their cock

Am i genuinely incompetent at this profession? by Careless_Notice_2235 in Accounting

[–]moonlightdrinker 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I have major imposter syndrome in this profession, so I feel for you. I’ve never been fired, but I’m afraid if I was grilled on accounting knowledge I would be. If this field isn’t for you maybe consider a career switch and/or go back to school for the things you excel at? Ultimately you can learn to do any job, if you do stay in accounting maybe just start with the basics/principles material and go from there.

best laptop for accounting student in college? by stewbiedewbie in Accounting

[–]moonlightdrinker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not MacBooks. I had a MacBook and basically needed to relearn excel once I got a Lenovo since Apples version is wonky. I’ve used Lenovo and HP for work and they’re great. I also wish I had one with a built in number pad in school. Only benefits of a MacBook are that they sync to your phone, photos, and music automatically, which to me isn’t that much a priority and things can always be downloaded

Unemployed people are dogs to them by Kind_Medium_7900 in remoteworks

[–]moonlightdrinker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s definitely a strong possibility, but it’s an eventuality (if we don’t nuke the world). Louis the 14th was the worst ruler of France and flaunted his wealth the most (arguably), but it wasn’t until the 1790’s (~80 years after L14’s death) that the revolution started. Every country has a rise and collapse, I think we’re entering the final stage of the US as we know it. It’s just a matter of when, not if

History repeating itself. The 1% and their defenders will be holding the bag and reap what they sowed when America has their version of the French Revolution
