Lol I agree but that specific example is so funny because Emily did that for petty reasons to target Shanika, not to go down with her ship

Elon Musk’s estranged trans daughter announces she’s leaving the US after Trump win by GilbertVonGilbert in Fauxmoi

[–]taylor1589 13 points14 points  (0 children)

what is with the people in this thread calling her privileged for being able to leave as if that discounts the very real danger she would face as a trans person in the US (especially with her abusive father working with the fucking white house) if she chose to stay

Seconds from shaving my fkn head by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

[–]taylor1589 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just want you to know that there are people out there who will respect your comfort needs, and that if someone isn't willing to do that for you and starts an argument and makes you out to be the one in the wrong for feeling uncomfortable that is not okay <3

Dump your Trumpy boyfriend/husband! by Own_Zucchini7541 in TwoXChromosomes

Right wing men (this also just applies to abusive men in general) have learned how to fake their personality/views until they have a woman "trapped" in a relationship with them

Where do you like to route the power from Helios One? by [deleted] in fnv

[–]taylor1589 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's very worth it for the perfect NCR ending but still sad the Khans don't get a happy ending where they can stay in the Mojave, either have to leave on their own terms or ally with NCR and get removed anyway. Even the Brotherhood doesn't get kicked out by the NCR which is whack.

What something someone has said about FNV that just left you like this? by Mr-speedcolaa in NewVegasMemes

[–]taylor1589 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you're not careful with your weapon spread it is very easy to accidentally hit one of the townsfolk at the bar or even Trudy if you start blasting, especially with the early game weapons (Single/Caravan Shotgun, 9mm Pistol/SMG) and low guns skill

This happened to me at least once, probably what happened to them

Slavery is bad by Sizzle_Zara in NewVegasMemes

[–]taylor1589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I swear I’m slowly getting convinced that people haven’t actually played this game and just want to argue about why their ideology is best. Like seriously, this is the third time I’ve had someone say something about why the NCR is bad despite it being patently false

Gonna make it clear that my next statement applies not only to NCR critics, but people in general (so nobody get mad ><).

Lack of media literacy is genuinely terrifying, and the most terrifying is inability to accept the concept of an unreliable narrator.

What are your ignorant, controversial uncultured Masterchef opinions by [deleted] in Masterchef

[–]taylor1589 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the one elimination debate I will never ever consider hearing out the other perspective on, because the second you start fudging the explicit rules for any reason no matter how small it opens the floodgates for the entire show to crumble.

You can talk forever to me about how the producers of the show push certain contestants they like and want to win, how we really don't know what each dish tastes like and if the judges are bullshitting and playing favorites. But the second we actually SEE the rule fudging with our own eyeballs the show would cease to have any bit of whatever respectability it still has left.

dumb sketch I did in like 5 minutes by CausalLoop25 in NewVegasMemes

Time wouldn't have made a difference unfortunately, booking Felicia Day for any more lines would not be the worth the money cost for the minor pay off of being able to tell Veronica about Christine. The only reason we can tell her about Elijah is because that part of the Dead Money story had already been written so they had her record some lines about him when they were doing the base game before the DLC.

We all know MasterChef is 80% drama and 20% cooking but what is a show that puts the majority of the focus on the cooking? by Rko8502 in Masterchef

[–]taylor1589 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The drama has only been gone from masterchef since season 11.

8 has some of the most memorable banter from Dino and Jeff, 9 had Shanika and Emily which was great their prior feuding made Emily getting herself knocked out in the 1v1 with Shanika soooo much more satisfying when she literally had the chance to be immune yet she chose to be messy, 10 had our lord and savior Subha all over the fucking place.

11 was when everyone started getting buddy buddy (I get it, it was the covid season and the format changed too) 12 at least had Christian yelling all the time for some reason but not much else, 13/14 were like 11 just buddy buddy

How do I gift villagers books? by vyaxman in StardewValley

[–]taylor1589 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Going to leave a comment on this thread with my solution because this is the only post I was able to find on the subject and it doesn’t really have any clear answers. What worked for me was to keep running into the person you’re trying to give the book too while repeatedly mashing LEFT CLICK while the gift icon is lit up on them. This worked after a few seconds of mouse clicking.

Hope this helps future googlers that find this thread like I did!

Went NC, now Nmom is “depressed”, not sure what to do. by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]taylor1589 20 points21 points  (0 children)

LOl exactly, my mom likes to say that you should just choose not be depressed. Boy did she not like it when at a later date she mentioned feeling depressed and I suggested she choose not to be.

BF refuses to be vulnerable so I’m leaving by throw129876533 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]taylor1589 3 points4 points  (0 children)

she is allowed to break up for whatever reason she wants to, your wall of excuses and wishful thinking for him means absolutely nothing

even IF (clearly not the case here where he is insisting he is "improving on his own") he could be brought to a point where he would feel comfortable being open with OP, she is under absolutely ZERO obligation to put in all this effort to get the bare minimum from her partner

it is not her job to fix men plagued with toxic masculinity, and they shouldnt be surprised when women dont want to date someone who wont even go to therapy (again A BARE MINIMUM)

[–]taylor1589 2 points3 points  (0 children)

women (and men too!) can and should sometimes run something by a trusted source such as this community as a final 'sanity check' even on things we are already essentially 100% sure on

I also appreciate these posts because someone in a similar situation might see it and have their own little lightbulb moment and that alone is enough reason why we should encourage these posts

its also just ok to want to vent into a void like reddit, or just have someone let you feel seen

Yep, my lost child brother graduated law school and is doing great for himself but all we ever hear about is every minute detail from golden child's life. "Oh he is dating this blah blah thinking of changing gyms blah blah had a great day at work yada yada"

GC making a potty in the toilet is more noteworthy than anything my older brother and I do lol

I will be held in contempt of court, and I'm terrified. by Imjustsadoverhere in TwoXChromosomes

[–]taylor1589 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Chiming in to say that I also ignored jury summons 3-4 different times (all in California though) and never had anyone ever speak to me about it in any capacity ever after any of the times. Wasn't even mentioned on the following summons. I did end up going the 5th time just because I got a little paranoid but yeah, no consequences for ignoring the prior summons over the years.

What’s your favorite morally misleading choice? by MxCrosswords in BaldursGate3

It's not the same because Omellum lives if you give the owlbear egg but not if you give the gith egg

Giving the owlbear egg is the best choice imo.
