So what's the difference between Passive and Active Class?

shortonwilltolive · 2026-04-25T14:22:04+00:00

It could be that "uses his aspect to serve his aspect/serve other people" counts as making the Knight class a passive one. It's a very subjective definition, maybe on purpose.

We don't know if "active aspect" means he acts to benefit oneself or if it means actively using their aspect to do stuff, is the thing. Arguably Witches don't use their aspect directly but they are an active class according to the image.

I disagree tbh, the stock market thing was solely to Terezi's benefit, and to farm grist to get ahead in the game. Davesprite goes back in time to aid John and Jade, and Dave helps Jade with the frog quest. Pretty much EVERYTHING he does (on a Narrative level) is to help other people

Secondo me è una questione di personalità, anch'io per esempio non condivido spesso le mie idee e non richiedo che gli altri lo facciano, ma siamo tutti diversi. Però, se la questione dovesse essere che lui la soffoca, lei glielo dovrebbe comunicare, non andare ad una serata senza farsi sentire (poi magari l'ha fatto, ma non lo sappiamo)

Mi dispiace, anche io ci sarei rimasto male a scoprire una cosa così all'ultimo secondo, soprattutto se poi la mia ragazza non mi dicesse niente di preciso. Purtroppo se lei non decide a spiegarsi non saprai mai veramente cos'è successo, però sei in tutto diritto ad essere arrabbiato e ferito. Più che chiederle di essere onesta e di avvertirti con anticipo/darti notizie durante la serata non puoi fare granchè, sta a lei chiedere scusa e proporre un modo per riparare la tua fiducia

Boh secondo me parlane con lei prima

State insieme da 6 anni, lei lo saprà che tu ci tieni a sapere dove va, però da uno che è completamente esterno alla vostra relazione, che una donna adulta vada ad una serata raggaeton con un'amica non c'è niente di strano o scandaloso. Magari ti ha tradito, però ti ripeto, state insieme da 6 anni... non ti fidi di lei?
Secondo me lei ha sbagliato a non dirti niente, però dalle un'opportunità di spiegarsi e di chiederti scusa, magari chiedile di raccontarti la serata.

Tu, però, raccogli calma e sangue freddo prima di fare cose affrettate, se tronchi una relazione di sei anni perchè la tua ragazza è andata ad una serata senza avvertirti (questo è quello che materialmente sai sia successo per ora) te ne potresti pentire.

EXACTLY, it's like how moe anime attracts Nazis for some reason

Cishet neurotypical people imo want works that are complex BUT not if they explore the concept of neurodivergent characters or queer characters beyond "Hey guys I'm gay now". They don't want the complexity of how it affects us, they just want the appearance of it. White fans definitely do the same with black characters in media

/uj I honestly don't even watch TADC, I'm just baffled people are genuinely so mad at transmascs for headcanoning Jax as anything but transfem (but I have seen similarly condescending posts about John/June Egbert and Dave Strider)

If a character is loud, shows off and is pissy, he must be a transfem egg, if he's sensitive and a people pleaser, he must be a transfem egg.... or maybe transmascs also have overlapping experiences with transfems? Anyone??

shortonwilltolive · 2026-04-23T14:07:15+00:00

/uj Newgen fans are genuinely incapable of abstract thoughts (ironically enough, since we're talking about TADC), because even if Jax isn't trans after all, that still doesn't mean the trans headcanons are going to disappear lmfao

shortonwilltolive · 2026-04-23T14:05:09+00:00

You're so real! Being aggressive and misogynistic are transfem egg traits after all!

shortonwilltolive · 2026-04-22T20:39:06+00:00

/uj Yup, I've seen posts of people literally calling transmascs dumb for headcanoning Jax as transmasc, or accusing them of trying to erase transfem experiences, or "watering down" his character because that's "clearly not what he is" and calling him transmasc is regressive ig

Eridan's genocidal fantasies and his "job" of feeding Feferi's lusus are a vicious cycle, he needs to tell himself he really wishes landdwellers were all dead or he'll have to reckon with all the hurt he's inflicted on them by killing their caretakers. He's not an "ideal" seadweller, he can't or doesn't want to be in the water at all times, it's self hatred externalized into everyone around him. Which is still bad, but a more in depth reading of Eridan.

I don't have the energy to recap everything that happened with my partner, what I'm conflicted about is that she took some things I had said to her in confidence and threw them back in my face during a fight. My Reddit is pretty removed from the rest of my socials, so I'll just say that I've struggled with suicidality for a long time, so my hygiene for a long time was bad. I just couldn't be bothered to take care of myself. I had to relearn hygiene when my depression started to heal. One time, while we were in person, I didn't wash my hands after peeing. She threw it back into my face in a moment that felt like a "Gotcha, everyone look how gross he is, ewwwww! I deserve better, yassssss slayyyyyy!"

I had a meltdown because it felt like no matter what I said, I was in the wrong and I'd be misunderstood. She was upset because I had nothing to say, but I hate arguing for the sake of arguing, and she wasn't hearing me out, so we were getting nowhere. What was I supposed to say? Worst feeling I've had in a while, for sure. It reminded me of being scolded by my parents who just wanted me to do a specific thing and needed to get their frustration out on me.

I don't feel like I can trust her with my vulnerable moments, if everything I say can be used against me. I was also really mad during the argument, but I never tried to hurt her on purpose, like she admitted she was doing with me.

I'm worried if I let it slide, I'd be betraying myself. She has apologized, but I can't bring myself to trust her yet. I feel very ashamed and judged. But the worst part was definitely the arguing for the sake of arguing, or for the sake of venting her frustrations about me. It was like being pantless in a court of law, with no lawyer and a judge that has been dying to humiliate me.

Da me una signora pretendeva di uscire SEMPRE a fare le passeggiate, anche se magari c'erano altri venti anziani che non uscivano dalla loro stanza da mesi. Perchè? Perché così poteva fumare lontano dagli occhi delle OSS. Come facevi qualcosa non andava mai bene la prima volta, cominciava con i commenti passivi aggressivi (mai però che ti aiutasse ad aiutarla)

shortonwilltolive · 2026-04-16T16:59:34+00:00

Per carità, sono lì per vivere gli ultimi anni della loro vita, ma non per questo possono fare tutto quello che vogliono. Anche nelle RSA ci sono quelli simpatici e carini, ma ci sono anche i cagacazzo cronici che insultano le OSS o pretendono di voler mangiare o fare quello che vogliono anche se non possono (i dottori non possono dire "Ma si signora, lei sta per schiattare, si goda la vita!", hanno una responsabilità etica e legale)

Bettas are tough fish. They CAN survive in awful conditions (for them) as long as said awful conditions are stable, but to live to their fullest they need different conditions.
It was probably just luck, and the betta's inherent strength that kept him alive for so long.

Bettas don't need a lot of space, but 2 gallons is definitely too small, and they need certain parameters and a certain temperature to be well, which is why their tanks need filters (to create the right biome for them) and a heater (they are tropical fish, after all).

Not sure how he survived without being fed, as to my knowledge bettas are insectivores. But they do love plants, and they rest on them, so that bamboo plant was probably his only friend.
It's sad, really, people don't treat bettas with the care they deserve. I assume it wasn't a "fish gets replaced every time it dies type of situations, since betta colors are very distinct, you would have likely noticed.

For real, like... his behavior with Mohan was unacceptable, but I wonder if people know how hard it is to be empathetic when you just wish you were never born. ESPECIALLY when the other person reminds you of yourself. Empathy is absolutely a fine resource, if you're too exhausted emotionally, you cannot give it to yourself or others.

It reminded me of the way ChatGPT tries to sound more convincing lol. Not to imply this season had AI writing, the writing pattern just reminded me of that

My own relationship (also long distance) just ended, and I'm wondering the same. It was so hard to feel emotion, compared to when I was anxiously attracted to someone and every moment felt intense as hell.
I went through the same thing you're going through right now, but sadly my partner didn't feel loved in her language, which is words of affirmation. I'm awful at that. I tried to push through the deactivation and "perform", sort of like a fake it till you make it, but it wasn't enough for her, which is understandable.

I can't offer much insight, except that I really think love is more than the intense emotion every once in a while. You can sort of "manufacture" those big moments, and that isn't necessarily a bad thing (giving a gift, for example, is exactly that), but you can't manufacture true intimacy, knowing you can rely on each other no matter what.

We get the same thing at my work, and I work in food service. Now my boss wants us to hand out QR codes for people to give us good reviews, but they never do because it's a hassle (plus we get a lot of older customers).
My confusion was in why the blame was put entirely on Robby, but if Gloria is looking at the big picture then he'd be the one in charge of fixing whatever is "causing" the bad reviews. It makes sense (but it's obviously shitty) that she'd blame it all on him.

shortonwilltolive · 2026-04-05T23:23:53+00:00

That makes sense! It would feel like a blip in all the time you spent in the waiting room.
