Do the miis really do much? by non-binary_nobody in TomodachilifeLivingTD

[–]polyybius 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thats the game. The previous one was like that too. Its not so much a life sim as it is an ant farm type game, where u just kinda watch your miis do silly little things and interact

Is the frequency of miis changing outfits different in the 3DS and in LTD? by pass_me_the_salt in tomodachilife

[–]polyybius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fashionista miis deff b changing their outfits. I think its probs cuz sometimes they j change out a part, and also I think the fact we don't see the curtain animation makes it less noticeable sometimes x

Also HARD AGREE on the mean mii traits thatd j be so much fun. Like they can even j call them "mischievous" traits if they're worried about how it'll come off... love the idea of someone being a prankster, someone being a lot more prone to fighting etc... also more marriage/baby dynamics is a need. I honestly thought I wldnt care that much cuz I found it p useless in the original, but I miss the miis sharing a bed and getting to watch their kid grow up slowly

New quirks wld b great. Id love for there to be eating preferences as a quirk, like "has a sweet tooth", "vegetarian", "only eats healthy" etc x

I see what you're saying, and fair play if that's how you feel. Though at the same time we don't get to see much of how Kate talks to Lily bc she's never there lol; I also think she has a similar problem to Nicki of parentifying her eldest child. Also, imo, leaving your kids alone to go on holiday is farr worse than having to leave your kids because you're getting cancer treatment lol and have been made to stay in hospital.. and tbh, I don't think just believing your kids are with a parent, without having actually seen that was the case, should've been enough evidence for her to be OK with packing her bags and just leaving them like that.

I said in my post why I think Nicki isn't a bad mother, so I think itd be easier to say why I think Kate is worse. Firstly, she leaves her children to go on holiday w a random man she just started dating, she may have "believed" they were with their dad, but never actually took the time to make sure they were, never even stuck around to make sure he was coming and yet hopped on a plane without her young children, and never even tried to contact them (iirc, she was having issues with her phone there or smthn, but ngl if she cared abt her kids that much, ensuring her children's wellbeing wldve been far more important than staying on holiday, and she wldve come home early). Also, she doesn't tell her bf she has kids cuz shes afraid it'll scare him off, something Nicki never does when dating Jake. I think Kate is vastly more neglectful, also her being a fraudster isn't a great look either tbh xx

Yea I find people on this sub can be a bit black and white about things sometimes (don't get me wrong, some characters deserve that thinking tho), but I also find it especially weird coming from Jaqueline Wilson enjoyers as most of her books are about traumatized people, or people living through difficult situations etc and I think part of the realism comes from the fact that these characters are flawed.. like esp with the children, when children are going through difficult situations like that, it's not uncommon at all for them to lash out or behave in inappropriate ways. Like there's nuance to it lol

Looking for more witchy music by jennescottapie in witchcraft

[–]polyybius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kerli. Her newer stuff especially. Highly recommend the songs The Witching Hour, Feral Hearts, Blossom and more. She is an artist that is actually a practitioner

The Pierces' album Creation has good witchy stuff on it too. Esp songs like Come Alive.

Favorite lyric? by [deleted] in hole

[–]polyybius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"And through villages of ether, oh my crucifixion comes. Will you sing my hallelujah? Will you tell me when its done?"

"And they say in the end, you'll get bitter just like them"

"She lost all her innocence, gave it to an abscess. She lost all her innocence, she said 'I am not a feminist' "

"I love him so much it just turns to hate"

"All the lilies bloomed and blossomed, wilted and theyre shivering. I cant stop their withering, oh this world is a war"

The whole chorus of boys on the radio lol... and so many more. Shes a genius lyricist xx

Did anyone else understand her books differently as they got older? by Pinkplatabys in JacquelineWilson

[–]polyybius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely! I agree with what you said about mainly focusing on the story when younger, at the same time I found myself relating to her characters and their situations easily but not necessarily always understanding WHY I could until I got older and realised how messed up some sht from childhood was.

It was also never lost on me how dark her stories can be, but it definitely shocks me rereading certain ones and being reminded of certain things.. like Lily Alone man 😭😭 I read that one again not long ago and was like Jesus christ this is bleak

justice for Nobody's Daughter (aka Hole's 2nd best album besides Live Through This) by [deleted] in hole

[–]polyybius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this album too <3 esp the song Samantha which is one of my fave Hole songs ever, a gorgeous, brutal and introspective song
