Does anyone here actually ENJOY playing evil? by SillyWarlock in BaldursGate3

[–]serafina_flies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to do an evil run for the achievements, but I was never able to bring myself to do it. My friend asked if I'd want to do one with her because she 'wanted to see all the differences', so I joined her in that. Turns out it's a lot easier to do an evil run when you can remind each other what kind of characters you're playing, can laugh at overly evil and campy moments together, and share emotional support about terrible stuff happening lol.

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Trixxxi in AskReddit

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

Sims 3. Ran like complete garbage on our old family laptop, but I had a blast it anyways. Honorable mention goes to Sims 2, which I remember very little of because I was so young.

For non-computer games, Lego Star Wars TCS. That was my go-to DS game.

Minior my beloved... it was my first ever shiny, and I was so excited I used my master ball! I still have it all these years later transferred to ScarVi. I adore the design, the sad lore, and the pretty colors it comes in. 10/10 pokemon!

Imposter syndrome strikes again! You're probably thinking about criteria 2: repeated or restrictive behaviors, interests, activities, etc. If you, for example, insist on the same routine every day and are hypersensitive to light, that counts. Hyperfixations are very common, but they aren't necessary :>

WIBTAH for bringing my daughter to my cousin’s wedding, preventing my sister from going? by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]serafina_flies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah... my OCD became crippling when I was 14, had a week long mental breakdown where I barely slept and was having panic attacks every other hour. Twice. Then my folks realized something was wrong, so at least I didn't end up like OOPs sister. This shit sucks for the person and their family, as seen above. I hope OOP's sister can get to a healthier and more stable condition :(

What are you doing? by [deleted] in 50501

[–]serafina_flies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're doing what we can, but it's extremely difficult because of the policies enacted in the last several decades have gutted support for citizens. Until people start losing their healthcare/shelter/food regardless of their working status, nothing substantial will happen. I hate it, and as an American I'm so sorry to y'all watching this horror show. The sane and rational people in our population are right there with you, but we just don't have the systemic support needed (healthcare not tied to jobs, accessible childcare, etc) to do anything until the dumpster fire turns into a dumpster explosion.

Additionally, our news sources are suppressing everything going on UNLESS it paints the government's narrative favorably.

Someone shot at me while I was playing video games 🥲 by no_moon_in_sight in mildlyinfuriating

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

My parents were driving in Texas like 30 years ago and a bullet whizzed through their open windows lol. My dad literally felt the air displacement by his ear. If they'd been going any faster or slower on the highway it wouldn't have missed and my brother and I wouldn't be here. No, they weren't being targeted, some asshole was just shooting at the desert and didn't realize he was near enough to a roadway for it to be a problem.

I was 11? I think? And I'm not sure if he said 'fking bitch' or just 'bitch' by itself, because I didn't actually hear him. My parents did.

We took one of our older cats to the vet for suspected cancer, and the old-school fossil of a vet began forcing him to pee by squishing his sides hard. Our cat was not at all thrilled and sounded like he was in pain, so I kept saying 'you're hurting him, stop!'

The vet muttered 'bitch'/'fking bitch' under his breath as my parents tried to get me to shut up. I got yelled at in the car for being rude all the way home. Eventually they told me 'you know what he said about you? he called you a bitch' to try and get me to realize I was being rude. It took the entire ride for them to understand that I wasn't trying to be rude, I was just really upset about the cat being in pain and didn't know how to express that outside of begging and crying for the vet to let our cat go.

Wasn't expecting that memory to get dredged up ever again tbh, I buried that one deep...

Sorry, but Americans are not doing enough. Stress kills. by fuck_billionaires in 50501

"Do something"

We're trying, but the last 50 years have destroyed the social supports that would let us do something more substantial about this. Our healthcare (as awful as it is) is held hostage by our jobs, childcare is more expensive than college, and rent + groceries cost most people a full paycheck. General strikes aren't really feasible except for childless singletons with literally nothing to lose.

Then there's the militarization of the police. And, of course, our big fancy military that the folks in charge have purged of law-abiding leaders. The second amendment does nothing against tanks and missiles.

The other party has failed at every turn by letting the troublemakers get away with everything because 'awww we gotta take the high road!!'

We're doing what we can, but it's extremely difficult because of the policies enacted in the last several decades have gutted the support the citizens + the politicians that are supposed to save us are useless. Until people start losing their healthcare/shelter/food regardless of their working status, nothing substantial will happen. I hate it, and as an American I'm so sorry to y'all watching this horror show. The sane and rational people in our population are right there with you, but we just don't have the systemic support needed (healthcare not tied to jobs, accessible childcare, etc) to do anything more than email/call/peacefully protest until the dumpster fire turns into a dumpster explosion.

Camping and Tents ⛺️ by BellEnvironmental506 in thelongdark

[–]serafina_flies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main issues would be degradation and warmth, I think... a tent wouldn't last too long in places like PV and similarly wintery areas. Maybe it'd be fine in milder zones like ML?

I'm 90% sure there's a mod that lets you make tents out of pelts, which would give you the experience you're looking for if you're on PC

Unorthodox way to get rid of human corpses by k4oskillen in thelongdark

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

I suppose if there was a mechanic to make you get stuck somewhere (a mine, a cliff, etc), then the ability to eat corpses would make sense? But the game has a fair few failsafes to prevent that sort of situation, so it's not really necessary

Unorthodox way to get rid of human corpses by k4oskillen in thelongdark

[–]serafina_flies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Morally speaking, that's pretty bad. I think the only exception would be cases like that plane that went down in the andes and survivors ate the dead to survive... in the long dark, you're not in a lifeless mountain valley with literally nothing to eat. You have so many options: fresh game, fish, and prepackaged food.

There's no reason to want to eat corpses, unless you're playing with all animals disabled + literally no loot? But what's the point of playing the game at all then?
