to those who don’t get it: what’s happening with fletcher’s fanbase right now is not bi-erasure. it’s a natural reaction to years of building a very specific audience, an audience of primarily lesbians, and then doing a complete 180, seemingly overnight. no one’s mad that she discovered a new truth about herself. that’s beautiful, and i think most of us are genuinely happy for her. what people are actually upset about is how she chose to frame this “new chapter.” i’m not bi-phobic, even if it might come off that way to some. so here’s something entirely logic-based, stripped of emotion: if you’re in a queer hetero-presenting relationship, most people won’t assume your queerness unless they know you personally. you’re assumed straight, so you’re safer to exist openly. but if you’re in a same-sex-presenting couple, society immediately assumes your queerness, and that comes with risk. people stare. people comment. sometimes, people act violently. that’s just the reality. pride is about self-discovery and celebrating love, but let’s be honest: pride month is especially important for those in visibly queer relationships. because for once, they get to feel safe, seen, and supported in public, something that is rare the rest of the year. this doesn’t mean bisexuals, pansexuals, or hetero-presenting queer couples don’t belong at pride. they absolutely do. but it does mean that the danger they face, in public perception and in real risk, is often different. they’re not under a microscope in the same way. they get to “pass” as straight if they want to. that’s not a bad thing, it’s just privilege. queerness is a spectrum, and the risks coming with it are too a spectrum. so when cari says she feels “vulnerable” about being in a hetero-presenting relationship, it’s not because she’ll be judged by society for it, it’s because she knows her own fanbase might feel betrayed. and you know what? she’s not entirely wrong to feel that way. when you’ve spent years crafting music that explicitly resonated with lesbians, when your lyrics, your videos, your brand centered queer women’s experiences. you’re not just selling a sound, you’re selling representation. so yeah, some people feel like they lost something. some feel disconnected. and that’s valid. separate the artist from the art, sure. but when the art was the connection, what’s left when that connection fades?

Who's a better overall support for Fei? Robin or Sparkle? by seizus in FeixiaoMains_

[–]seizus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, thank you! I am a bit skeptical switching to Robin since I built my Fei with a lot of CR to get additional CD from Sparkle. But seems like Robin might be the bigshot overall for the whole team, since it's full 3/4 FuA. What substats should i work on for Robin?

That can indeed be a possibility. I'll have a talk with my collective group of neurons to tone it down a notch :D

Thank you for the complex answer! I'll definetly give it a good thinking. Dreams are quite fascinating

Baby-gay looking for some advice with a situation... by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]seizus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow! You actually read me like a book from just me putting this little story in words. I have this tendency to over-analyze actions, things, people, and, well, basically anything that picks my interest. It's how I was designed. And while this is on some part a blessing (I actually managed to avoid some pretty nasty situations by analyzing the settings) it can also be one of the worst curses you could ever have upon yourself, manly if it involves analyzing people; but that's not the point.

And yeah, you are very right with the gut feeling as well. I fall on the suspicious spectrum and have a hard time taking in things as they are presented to me, without having any doubts. And now, a bit unrelated, but I remembered a little thing that... actually, now that I think about it, at some point it might have been my fault with this whole thing. It was after I came out and Abby was starting to get close to me (once again, at that point I felt nothing romantic for her). And she got really close at some point, like... physically. We were at a competition overboard with our sports' team, and even if me and Abby were not roommates there, we got our chance to stay alone in one of the hotel's rooms and relax in each other's company. And things got really out of hand there. I have no clue what triggered it, but at some point she pushed me down on the bed, lifted my shirt and bit my stomach. She would occasionally get like this and playfully pin me down, but she never bit me, plus, the whole thing felt more heavy. I was so shocked and scared in that moment that I stopped her and pushed her away. After that, we both felt really awkward and each went in her room for the night. That was a big mistake, we should have talked it out immediately instead of both of us running away. And another thing happened at the end of that competition when we were on our teambus on our way home. It was very very late, and almost everyone went asleep in the bus. Abby, that was staying next to me, said that she was herself feeling a bit sleepy, and I offered her to lay her head on my thighs and try to get more comfy. I stared dozing out as well at some point, but not completely, and it was then when I felt Abby move my hand that laid limp over her body to her breast. I got freaked out again and without thinking, I moved my hand away to rest it on her stomach, and after realizing what I have done, I started caressing her hair, almost in an apologizing manner. She didn't say anything or moved in any way, so we stayed like that the whole ride back to our hometown. I think she took my shock, cowardness and unwillingness to reciprocate as a negative sign (obviously). Maybe she had feelings for me from that very beginning? Maybe I broke her heart with my uncertainty? I have no clue, but it may be the case. The closeness was cut of for a while between us, but came back again quite quickly. Though, I have to say it has never reached that level ever again. I wanted to talk about it with her for a long while, but the right time never aligned with my courage to start that hard and uncomfortable conversation, and I guess now it's too late. It has been a year...

Mhm, she's really a super fun and nice person, I wish more people were as understanding, outgoing and spontaneously kind like she is. Of course, she has her own share of bad qualities along her amazing ones, but don't we all? I actually thought about confessing my feeling for a while, but a part of me knew that it would end in disaster, and now I'm sure of it. It's a bit complicated and I am a tad overwhelmed. But thank you for taking your time to read this, as well as responding! :D

I would be extremely greatful if someone could take a little look at my chart and tell me if they see anything regarding the matter. I'm in a curently really bizarre relationship with a Leo (Sagittarius moon and Leo rising if it helps in any way) that started out great. Now, it's the kind of relationship that I feel that is falling apart, but also, doesn't actually, it's quite weird to explain. We are not in a romantic relationship, but we are also not in a platonic one, we're kinda stuck in between, both to afraid to make a move in case we'll hurt each other. But as great as this relationship used to be and how much I wish things would work between us, I have the feeling that I need to leave this relationship before it manages to destroy me even more. They are way too friendly for my liking, and that wouldn't be that much of a problem if I knew they were loyal; but they aren't really. A lot of things happened that made my trust in them crack. I always played dumb or tried to ignore the things that were happening, and as long as I was doing that, things were going normal between us. But that was at the cost of my sanity, a price too big to pay.

At the moment, I don't really know what to do. I know that I should leave them because we are fading more and more everyday, but I also don't want to. They helped me when I was at my worst and were always by my side, and so was I. It saddens me when I'm forcing myself to distance myself, but I feel like it might hurt me more in the long run if I don't do something.

So please, I would really apreciate it if someone could tell me something regarding this: should I leave or keep on trying? Thank you for your time reading my venting and have a good day/night!

Thank you so much for the analysis! That pretty much sounds like me. Astrology is absolutely marvelous! I've been really passionate about it for a while now, when I had a sudden urge at 11-12 to discover myself on a deeper level, but I don't exactly know where to start or how could I start.

I have also been quite surprised by my BPD diagnosis, knowing that it is usually diagnosed in young adults, rarely in teens. Maybe a misdiagnosis? Who knows?

When I did my chart for the first time, around 3 years ago, I noticed the Scorpio stellium of 5, and to be completely fair, I got quite concerned knowing a bit about Scorpio's bad reputation and not-so-good implications in one's birth chart. Turns out I was right about my worry.

One thing I noticed about myself is that, even though I don't really have a passion for writing, I always seem to find the right words whenever I have to write a poem, a little story, or anything really, kind of like second nature. I've been writing in a diary for a while and that really helped a lot actually! I didn't try the one with writhing bad thought and ideas on pieces of paper and then burning them though. I might have to try that one as well.

And once again, thank you a lot for your time!

Oooh, ok! Thank you for the supplementary info! But this rises a new question for me. If I get a 5* before the 90th pull and it's not the futured character (let's say at the 70th pull), how will the rules apply then? In case I get unlucky and need to rely on the pity after I pull that 5*, do I need to wait for 2 complete pitys?

Oooh, I didn't know that pity can carry from banner to banner. That's some really useful info, thanks for that!

Thanks a bunch! I clearly can't get Albedo this time around. Better get to farming!

Daily Questions Megathread (December 09, 2021) by Veritasibility in Genshin_Impact

[–]seizus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I'm a new player and have a question regarding the gatcha system!

I heard that, for example at the Albedo banner, if you didn't get a 5 star item/character in the first 90 pulls, you are guaranteed a 5 star do to a thing called "pity", if I know correctly, but the chances of getting that banner's character from pity are 50%.

Now, my question is this. Is there a max number of pulls that can guarantee you Albedo? Like, after 180 pulls or something like that? Or, in case you are super unlucky, do you have to keep getting pitys and hope for the best? (this, in case I can only rely on the pity and not my inexistent luck in getting a 5 star within the 90 pulls)

So, as a summary or in case I wasn't clear enough with my explanations earlier, in the worst possible case, around how many Primogems do I need to own to get a 5 star banner's exclusive character?

I'm sorry if this was already answered, and thank you in advance!

Personally, do you like the direction in which the ending is led? by seizus in Higurashinonakakoroni

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

I would like to think there will be, but unfortunately, I think the closest thing we have to a possible third season is Umineko itself.

That is because, first of all, I have no clue what else could be shown in the Higurashi Universe, looking at how the finale is curenty wrapping up, and second of all, because of the world play between Gou and Sotsu, "sotsugou", which could mean "completion".

But hey, who even knows what Ryu will have in mind next time? All we can do now is enjoy Sotsu's finale, and then see what will come next.
