  • I don’t think it’s wrong for you to want a relationship with your dad, but it is weird that you kind of brush over the cheating. Your father had an affair, does that not affect you? You don’t even look at him a little different? Do you not understand why your mom is lashing out or why she’s as hurt as she is? Again, I do not think her request is reasonable, but this woman, from what I’m getting from the post, was cheated on, publicly enough that it was a big scandal, lost her husband, her home, and her son. While everyone is having a great time with the mistress, she’s seemingly alone with no one in her corner telling her how what she went through was hurtful and offering her some comfort. You’re like, “he’s my best friend, so I don’t really care, him cheating on my mother didn’t change anything to me, it’s not like he cheated on me.”

    Relationships are complicated. I don’t know what your relationship with your mom is, but if she wasn’t abusive and you do have some affection for her (even if she isn’t your best friend), I would talk to her. Both of you should explain how you’re feeling. Maybe she wants you with her because she thinks you like being around her as much as she likes being around you, maybe she thinks you two are closer than you actually are, or maybe she’s nuts and is making one final attempt to control. But your mom as seemingly lost everything important to her by putting her foot down against cheating while everyone is like, “finally, she’s gone. Just swap her out with a younger version.” I don’t know a lot of people who wouldn’t be hurt by that.



  • Super expensive, low quality cameras and mics, a janky looking chat, an okay screen, and having to buy games, some of which are years old (Looking at you BOTW), for more than their original buying prices. It’s just greed. It’s always greed. They saw PS and Xbox selling at already crazy prices and just tried to put the switch 2 in there like it’s worth a car payment, or even up to a month’s rent if you want the system, a few games, and a working camera (since the cheaper one is only 480p). And they’re just coming out and saying they’ll be monitoring your screen and chats (which I think more companies do than we think). And they’ll brick your machine if they see any mods or emulations. Want to add a fun mod to Mario party? Get bricked, bitch.

    If S2 looks appealing, I would highly recommend looking into the steam deck. I don’t even have the steam deck and this whole promotion cycle has me eyeing it hard which how awful they’re making the S2 launch.




  • To be honest, everyone in the brothel (except for one character that’s not seen often) seems to be vibing and happy with their professions. Some even openly say they like their jobs, so it’s not all doom and gloom. Maomao herself seems indifferent to the possibility of her joining the brothel as a working girl. The child abuse is not shown explicitly, but it is talked about pretty often and it’s pretty blunt about what happened and the reprocussions of it. So nothing graphic, just some busty women here and there.

    All she asked for was some anime without excessive fanservice, suited for a younger audience, and your reaction was, “YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND, IT’S ART.”

    What a narrow view of the medium. Imagine telling all the Japanese female fans that if they want different representation, they’re being ethnocentric. You want an anime without panty shots and lolis? THE ENTITLEMENT. You are the one who seems to be asking for art that only displays scenarios that fit your ideals, not OP.
