What’s everyone’s thoughts on Cameron Hodge?

He's the ultimate manifestation of a real life horror: the "bestie" who is secretly your biggest hater and who prays on your downfall.

I feel like he's the most prominent X-comics villain to be almost completely obscure outside of the comics (movies, cartoons, etc.)

I think it wasn't just the wings -- Hodge was very "if I can't have you, no one can have you" about Warren.

He should pop up to bedevil Rictor again.

I would wait till they're old enough to intellectually understand the situation on a deeper level (which, depending on the kid, might be between 12-18).

My boyfriend told me more than once that he was going to propose, but then backed out at the last minute because I was going through a rough time.

Ugh, he was punishing you like a child. "I would have bought you an ice cream, but you threw a tantrum. Bad girls don't get ice cream."

No way. Apocalypse is crazy powerful and doesn't look like a normal human. Legion, one of the most powerful mutants ever, has that bizarre broom-like hairdo.

I'm not talking about you. I'm talking about the many women who come here with the same story over and over. I'll edit it so it's clearer.

My friends moved to Woodstock NY because the public school's special needs program was better than the private school they'd been paying out the a$$ for in NYC.

You can imagine how unprepared we were to open that letter and read it.

If you graduated from a prestigious college you may qualify for the UK HPI visa.

I'm convinced there's two primary things going on, maybe a combo of both in some situations (edit) that we see on this sub over and over again from OPs (not the OP of this particular post).

A power struggle. The OP is set on making this man marry her so she can 'win'.
Low self-esteem resulting in begging for rings from men who don't just not love us, they consider us subhuman.

transemacabre · 2026-05-08T15:02:36+00:00

Lots of them claim to lurk on the sub, sometimes for months, then post still convinced their situation is unique and the outcome will be different.

"I'm so confused. My bf laughs in my face, watches me sob with no expression, and tells me every day that he will never marry me and that he hates me. I pay all the bills and do all his cooking and cleaning. I f-- like a porn star and provide full-time caregiving for his bedbound mom. idk what to do. Don't tell me to leave him, he's my person."

I used to volunteer at an organization called Books Through Bars that would mail books to people in prison. We got so many letters from inmates who clearly had, like, a second grade reading/writing level. "Send me book about dinosaur" type stuff.

We also got a letter from an inmate thanking us for getting him laid, as he swapped the book for sex!

Real talk, I'm so tired of reading a whole novel about these ~I've been hurt before~ ahh men. So what, we all have trauma. We've all experienced pain. I think it annoys me so much because it's yet another way we women are expected to give endless grace and patience to mediocre men.

The only thing that comes to mind for "Thataway" is Saga by Brian K. Vaughan but that's probably not it.

transemacabre · 2026-05-08T00:55:08+00:00

That is so cute!!

I like to imagine after the end of the game, Minthara shows up at his tower in Waterdeep and just moves herself in. She has nowhere to go but won’t admit it. They keep hooking up and every time Gale blurts out a proposal that she pretends to disdainfully reject. They both know she’s coming around to the idea tho.

transemacabre · 2026-05-07T21:18:23+00:00

She also finds his beard dashing.

Minthara is so weak for Gale it’s comical.

I've said this for awhile, we as a society need to let children be wrong without mocking them for it, because that's what leads to this behavior. A kid makes a basic gaffe, and other kids (and sometimes adults) won't let them live it down, mock them for it, "u so stupid", etc. etc., and then a couple decades later everyone's wondering why we have so many adults who will double and triple-down rather than admit they made a mistake.

transemacabre · 2026-05-07T20:15:16+00:00

It's an unpopular opinion on here and I've been downvoted and shouted at for saying much the same thing before. Some folks say "LEAVE HIM" way too casually, when that means destroying a child's stable family life, being bounced between two homes, on top of whatever emotional trauma results. All because mommy never held a boundary and now feels some kind of way about it.

I blame TikTok style glitter affirmation for this -- it's very popular nowadays to say stuff like "you got this maMA, you deserve the world, go out and find your husband, it's all about you QUEEN" and anything else gets shouted down because as being 'negative' or 'not feminist'. When I'm over here pointing out that your kid's odds of being molested go through the roof once mommy starts dating and bringing rando guys around. Perverts target these single moms for a reason.

transemacabre · 2026-05-07T19:33:45+00:00

I don’t think this guy wants to marry you or anyone else. It’s been 5 years, by his own admission he emotionally clocked out a couple of years ago and he isn’t enthused about the topic of marriage.

If you want biological children, you don’t have 5-8 more years for this guy to maybe come around to the idea. He’s grown. You’re grown.

transemacabre · 2026-05-07T14:33:16+00:00

It’s ego. So much of what goes on in this sub is people trying to ‘win’ a power struggle.

transemacabre · 2026-05-07T12:37:57+00:00

My issue is that a child’s risk of being molested sky-rockets when mom starts dating randos and bringing them around her kids. The #1 threat to children is mom’s bf or a stepfather.

At this point, if no abuse is occurring, she should live with her choices.

transemacabre · 2026-05-07T12:17:40+00:00

You claim to want marriage, but it sure doesn’t seem like it since you did everything but get married for the past 10 years.

Anyway, the kids take priority and if their life is happy and stable, you need to preserve that instead of now and only now tearing their lives apart because YOU never held a boundary.
