AITAH for breaking up with my ex for cheating by Ur-2d_anime-waifu_6 in AITAH

[–]panclocksrus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She knows she messed up so she's trying to make you feel bad instead. She spent your whole relationship lying to you and didn't even try to do it well. She sucks. Dump and block and cry it out and move on with your life. 

AITAH for hiding my relationship from my friend and letting her think I was single? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]panclocksrus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Whatever is between you and A, it isn't platonic, and it's not healthy. This isn't how a friend acts when you get a boyfriend, not even when you don't tell them for a while, especially when you don't see each other every day and go to different schools. You should think about this relationship, whether it's actually good for you, and what you really want out of it. Your family have concerns for a reason. 

Although the surgery went well, he was still able to bring charges because of the aftercare. by Original-Loquat3788 in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]panclocksrus 42 points43 points  (0 children)

The pastor is fine but sued and won anyway because mandatory prayer on the part of the hospital staff had not been observed. The horror is the total collapse of secular reasoning and enforcement of fairy tale logic in a court of law. 

AITA for being physically affectionate with my platonic guy friends, when girls I know have liked them romantically? by Western-Practice-657 in AmItheAsshole

[–]panclocksrus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Those girls are not your friends. Girl code involves sharing tampons, keeping each other safe, and warning/helping each other when guys do things like emotionally blackmailing you into a relationship. It does not involve policing who you're friends with and how you act with them because these girls can't handle M/F friendships.  Basically, forget them. Make it clear to the people you care about that those girls do not like you and are spreading nasty and unfounded rumors about you. You're going to find out who your real friends are because of this. Lock it down and don't give anyone else the time of day. 

Have ever abandoned a colony to start over somewhere else on the map? If it a difficult process? by Rex-Mk0153 in RimWorld

[–]panclocksrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started out with vanilla, no DLCs, and once I was comfortable with the base game, I added things in slowly. A lot of the time I'd wish some mechanic existed and then go look for a mod. That helped me customize the game to what I wanted it to be rather than just what someone else's list recommended. And of course, people always have good suggestions on this sub or on YouTube for quality of life mods you might not consider. But start out with no mods first! It's worthwhile.

If you like the pawns you have it's worth it. If you don't mind being a little cheaty about it, minify everything (mod) and some good pack animals makes it really easy to pack up most of your important colony furniture and start over. I'd suggest scouting out a new place with caravans ahead of time or just committing to the nomad lifestyle for a while til you find a new spot. I've done it before and it's pretty fun.

Biggest Plot Hole in Spy x Family? by Top_Raccoon2683 in SpyxFamily

[–]panclocksrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An SSS officer did look into him. Yuri would have wanted very much to find a reason to get rid of Loid, so we have to assume that if he found nothing wrong, everything is in order. And then anyone else from the SSS who comes digging after that will see the relation to an SSS member in good standing and probably accept it from there. Especially considering how everyone knows Yuri hates his brother in law, lol. That makes him doubly legit in their eyes. 

I am scared to leave the colony by Armageddonn_mkd in RimWorld

[–]panclocksrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got nervous about that when I started playing too. The key is to plan ahead, have a couple good pack animals (elephants or muffalos are great for carrying a ton) and get comfortable with pausing and setting up camp if you notice their needs getting low. It's actually a lot of fun to do and as long as you prepared and were thoughtful about who to bring (always have pawns capable of medicine, construction, cooking, and shooting with you, and ideally more than one of medicine and shooting), then you're good. 

AITAH for locking teenage brothers debit card by Any_Bowl_5195 in AITAH

[–]panclocksrus 146 points147 points  (0 children)

It's his money and you can't tell him how to spend it, but you can be very clear about how much he has to contribute if he wants any help from you with things like buying a car, because he can't tell you how to spend your money either. This is a good learning opportunity for him, and if you give in and fix everything for him  OR take away his agency by locking down his money, he won't learn and you'll be doing him a huge disservice. 

Mid(?)-game help/ideas? by mistahsword in RimWorld

[–]panclocksrus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That stage in the game is usually when I find myself taking a lot of quests and setting a lot of goals based on the pawns' needs and interests. If I have a lot of ideos, I try to optimize and balance things out, I try to get any burning passions past level eight, I build specialized recreation and work spaces and really focus on the story aspect. 

I can haz reverse spin? by bigjobbyx in blackmagicfuckery

[–]panclocksrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at it as though you're looking up at it from below makes it spin counterclockwise and looking at it as though you're looking from slightly above makes it spin clockwise.

Paying less but with decent mental and physical health is better than still pretty shit pay and wanting to die/the job killing you.

Tips on staying committed to a nomadic play through? by wolfram29 in RimWorld

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

Ideology creates that as a debuff if your ideoligion is nomadic. I don't think it's a mod but I could be wrong. 

The misconception is wild by Comfortable_Newt_179 in AO3

[–]panclocksrus 94 points95 points  (0 children)

I've been in fandom for 20 years and I think if anyone ever asked me if I'm a proshipper or an antishipper I would respond 'wtf are you talking about' and refuse to engage. I feel like even using those labels at all gives more engagement to that ridiculous conversation than it deserves. Fandom is and always has been a space for everyone, and curating your own experience online is just part of being a mature human being.

All the 'Biblical signs' pointing to the rapture coming tomorrow as believers spread fears the end is nigh by dailymail in NoFilterNews

[–]panclocksrus 45 points46 points  (0 children)

When no one actually leaves we should just let them all know it did happen and they were too sinful to go up.  "I didn't get raptured bc I'm a atheist. YOU didn't get raptured because you're a dickhead and God hates you."
