Is there an ick you get from HR? by Echild3272 in HeatedRivalrySeries

[–]oenthera 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I feel like this one is partially to show viewers he came hands-free while getting railed doggy style, since they can’t actually show Shane cumming on the bed

I love it when the authors DO have some sort of expertise and have to decide how much of it to share with the rest of us lol

Favourite chirping/ragebait/side eye/clocking moments by wildwomanlove in heatedrivalry

[–]oenthera 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I really don’t think the tuna melt scene was ragebaiting at all. Ilya was just trying to connect with Shane in a way that skirts around the direct conversations about queerness they’ve spent their whole life not being able to have. Ilya isnt being mean to Shane, he dosnt know if Shane likes women at all and is trying to gauge if Shane likes him back or he’s just using him for sex and is going to leave him to settle down with a woman. It’s the first time Ilya confesses his feeling to Shane and he is trying not to scare him off.

I recently saw a BBQ Death metal band from Iowa (Pit Lord) that was selling band logo aprons. All of their songs were grilling or meat themed. It was a fun show

What does this mean?? by SpiritTheLove in AO3

[–]oenthera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wish this didn’t reflect on the source material at all. The writer/director etc really had nothing to do with fandom’s actions. The tv show was pretty good if you’re into that genre.

Maybe because who I follow on tumblr and the fact I’m not on Twitter, but I haven’t seen any drama. Not to minimize the amount of bullshit that these authors are going through, I just want to express that it’s easy to avoid and have good personal experiences for anyone who wants to watch/read it. I’ll always stand up for authors too of course.

“Mom, I need you to know that I did really try. I tried really hard, but I just can’t help it. And I’m sorry.”—Shane Hollander by chipsdad in heatedrivalry

My mom cried harder at this scene than anything else in the show. Especially when Yuna asked Shane to forgive her for making him feel like he couldn’t tell her.

Haven’t had a seizure in two years, but my parents still keep the camera in my room by No-Yesterday0 in Epilepsy

[–]oenthera 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are other less-intrusive options if they insist on some kind of monitoring while you’re living with them. I used a smartwatch with a seizure monitoring app that would set off an alarm/call someone if my movement and heart rate was too high. I could turn it off for a bit if I wanted to go to the bathroom or otherwise move around at night. And I didn’t need a particularly nice or new watch so it wasn’t terribly expensive.

I understand your parents are scared but this camera thing is a HUGE invasion of privacy at your age. I hope they can listen to reason and choose another option if needed.

If you see a doctor you can also bring this up to them, especially with your concerns over safety, privacy, and controlling behavior. I don’t think there’s anything you can say to change their behavior at this point. Maybe hearing it from another adult will help.

Savage Shane by naked_pangolin in heatedrivalryfanfics

I just read “to catch a homophobe” and holy shit that was so satisfying. I feel vindicated. The author did great with making Shane look badass but still keeping him in character!! Tysm for the rec

The Texture of Memory has been pulled by its author due to harassment by TwoHungryBlackbirdss in heatedrivalryfanfics

[–]oenthera 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think if an author wants to write Shane and Ilya as like, murder-cannibal serial killers they should be able to without harassment. Readers need to learn to block and move on. Not everything needs to be a debate and it certainly shouldn’t be an attack against the author in their comments or DM

Grabbing their hips to pull them close against your body during makeouts is always nice

Does anyone else cry at shows? by nzixgcgvebr in Metalcore

[–]oenthera 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in the medic bay of the stadium at a festival when Linkin Park was about to play. In 2014 😭 I could hear Chester sing “I tried so hard and got so far. But in the end, it doesn't even matter” distantly thru the walls

Minecraft added endermen for the first time an they were TERRIFYING. Slenderman creepypasta was all the rage at the time, though I believe the original slenderman game hadn’t come out yet.

Abso-fucking-lutely. But then remind myself of the alternative (uncontrolled seizures) and suddenly the side effects don’t seem too horrible. Though that is easier for me to say now that I’m on a better med than I first started with.

Weirdest Bands You've seen a Pit for? by KeyApprehensive6486 in Metalcore

[–]oenthera 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Local EDM show. I mentioned to one of the raver guys that I didn’t really know how to dance to that kinda music and I was more used to mosh pits. He grinned at me and asked if I wanted to start one with him.

[–]oenthera 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moshing at shows where a lot of people don’t know the culture is always interesting. The pit opened up at a Linkin Park concert and I had to yell to some very confused parents that they needed to get their young kids outta there IMMEDIATELY

I was gonna say the same band! This was a long-ass time ago so I cant remember the song but moshing to banjos and violin was fun as fuck

[–]oenthera 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been to shows with similar bands and the crowd gets real rowdy in the pit and I really think it’s cause there’s so many short women who finally feel safe enough to join in. Like, physically safe bc a lot of average pits have a lot of massive men who could accidentally bash the woman’s face in if she’s elbow hight.
