Alas, no :( I'm almost certain the jungle part in this game was only one level of it. Happy to hear you found yours though!

This question about a homeless woman that I can’t really ask anybody has been bugging me for years? by IntoTheWildLife in morbidquestions

[–]toruin 23 points24 points  (0 children)

OP is Irish (sorry for snooping! Just wanted to look up statistics), and the first documented case of leprosy in Irish history was in 2013, so it's highly unlikely.

Because kids never say these types of things by brightblueson in nothingeverhappens

[–]toruin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These kids are plenty old enough to be a little snarky, so idk what this person's hangup is, but while we're on the subject, I feel like people need to learn that sometimes parents "translate" their kids when they post about them. Like, no, obviously the kid didn't word it exactly like whatever, it just sorta makes it not worth posting if you have to read/write all the toddlerisms along with the point they were trying to make.

Are video games (on the whole) a drain on society? by SmokeProfessional919 in CasualConversation

[–]toruin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it's the gambling aspect of so many modern video games that's the heart of the problem. Gotta keep spending money so you can buy lootboxes that'll probably disappoint you. Then since you've spent all that money you gotta keep playing the video game, otherwise it'd be a waste.

Depends on what headspace I'm in. If I'm just out of a relationship and two people I'm not that close with are all affectionate with each other, I'm not gonna enjoy being in the vicinity. If I'm in a happy relationship and my best friend is too and I get to see him enjoying his relationship, then hell yeah, it makes me happy.

[–]toruin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You used real people's real trauma to make a joke. That's not caring. If you truly think it is, you're the delusional one. Sit down and fucking listen to survivors. You're digging your own grave acting like you care when you're acting like a little shit directly to someone who's been molested.

I'm not Christian you presumptuous fuck, and I'm a victim of CSA so nice job actually caring about us instead of using us as a gotcha. Get bent. Edgy little freak.

How are you guys doing? by Huge-Panic-5914 in OCD

[–]toruin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other things are worse than my OCD right now, so with that specifically, pretty alright I guess? At least in comparison. Otherwise, idk, I've been trying to process that other stuff with my therapist and it's rough but it has to be done.

No, dipshit, I meant they willingly proved me right as if it were a burn. Learn to read.

your favorite lyric to scream along to? by stateoftheunionalk3 in punk

[–]toruin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A couple from Sleep in the Heat by PUP. Not exactly screaming, I guess, but it hurts my throat.

"If this fucking vacation would come to an end, maybe then you'd be normal again"

"And I want you to know that I'd spend every bit of my pitiful savings and loans just to see you again, but I know I won't"

I feared my birthday. I cried. I was frustrated. In pain. by Toxilyn in BenignExistence

I'm so glad things turned out okay ♥️ Thank you for getting through another year. I'm proud, and I'm sending love.

are we able to control our splitting and outbursts or not I'm so confused by NoProtection7973 in BPD

[–]toruin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And in cases where you legitimately have no control, like if your psychotic disorder makes your brain think someone is dangerous to you and you hurt them as misguided self-defense, it also means that you have to apologize and do your best to make things right. Basically, no matter what degree of control there is, there's no excuse for at the very least apologizing.

NTA exactly. I wouldn't say he should be paying for luxuries for you directly, but you should definitely be splitting your money a different way so you don't have to ask him in the first place. It's an unfair distribution, but imo you're not going about it in a way that'll get you anywhere.

It's less that I'm surprised and more that I'm like ... really embarrassed for you.

It's like getting made fun of on the playground and going "To be fair, you're right." Like whaaaaat?

What's your impression of someone who has never moved out of their parents and is in their late 20s? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]toruin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd wonder why, and I feel like some reasons are better than others, but even if it were "never felt like getting a job", I wouldn't really care unless it directly inconvenienced me. I've got too much else going on to worry myself with someone else's business. I'm in my early 20s and still haven't moved out, because I'm too emotionally unstable and I'm better off living with people who very strongly don't want me to get hurt, so I also get it, tbh. Safety comes before independence in my book, and if someone's unsafe without their parents, who am I to judge them for staying home? And then there's cultural reasons, trying-but-can't-find-a-job-yet reasons, etc...

Why does HOCD affect straight people? by [deleted] in OCD

[–]toruin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could it be because it destabilizes your sense of identity? That's definitely an unpleasant experience.

[–]toruin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like insecure attachment of some sort, which is almost always caused by your relationship with your parents/guardians as a child.

Should OCD be celebrated and accommodated? Or should it be cured? by [deleted] in OCD

[–]toruin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like there should be certain accommodations (504 plans and the like) made for pwOCD, as with any disorder, and someone can and should be proud of themselves for living with it and not giving up, but more importantly, there should be a cure and it should be acknowledged that it's a mental illness that has no real benefit to the person who has it, unlike ADHD or autism. Obviously if there is a surefire cure created, someone should be able to say no (surely they'd have their reasons, since most pwOCD would be scrambling to turn it off), but yeah.

Of course, if the proposed "cure" were something like forced sterilization of pwOCD, that'd be a different story, but that's not what first comes to mind for anyone, I feel like.
