Found the token ace

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

you're not pushy at all, don't worry! on the contrary, i'm glad there are people who feel strongly about otome game localization and translation. :) i'll look into talking with mangagamer.

lbr, most people turned down for a psl tend to think they've stepped on someone's toes/they're being snubbed/the person turning them down secretly hates them, and will read upset into even the most upbeat and cheerful refusal. dwrp collectively cannot manage to comprehend people responsibly managing their thread load and not having room for "just one more, really".

> Silence caused me to suffer. This way, I can find people who are similar, we can share coping mechanisms and we can deal with life instead of feeling isolated and stuff like that.

translation i'm looking for people who will never question me and provide me with an echo chamber of asspats and cozies as i regale them with tales of my first-world suffering

not really, because the intentions are different. you're definitely taking up this attitude to make yourself feel superior to others. those confiding in others about their struggles, while they do gain something from it, are not doing so for a sense of superiority, which is the core of narcissism.

plus, I mean, fuck, any psych worth their salt will encourage sharing their struggles (some struggles, not all) with understanding friends, so long as those friends aren't going to enable negative reinforcement or other bad behaviors. a lot of therapists will gladly help organize group meetings between either yourself and other people suffering, or yourself and close friends/family so that you can finally be open with your struggles, so that you can all come to a better understanding.

you've convinced yourself this behavior is toxic/manipulative because you are desperately clinging to some aspect of your life that makes you feel superior to others. you're a narcissist, anon. accept it.

using socks when there's mutual interest shown on an anon platform is one thing.

using socks to pm someone out of the blue carries shades of "why are you hiding your identity, exactly?", even if the reaction's not necessarily a conscious one for everyone.

no one's talking about "man guys i feel like shit right now". try to keep up

we're talking about people who are like "oh my life is soooooooooooooo hard i have bipolar and autism and no one understands me! ps having trouble paying bills, donations welcome!"

if you think those people are looking to just be "cheered up" i'd like you to turn around and follow the river you came from back out of egypt

rereading the thread, and maybe I missed something, but nobody mentioned asking for donations until you, just now.

That is literally not what I'm saying, I'm saying I found people who could literally help me cope, call me out when I needed it, etc.

The only on projecting anything here is you.

well since we're in a thread where people are making vast, sweeping assumptions about the intentions and thoughts of total strangers, might as well go full hog on it.

stronger effort than the above but still obvious attempt to play internet psychiatrist and very indicative of your own immaturity

but then it takes immaturity to put yourself on a pedestal above others for convenience, doesn't it?

No one mentioned any of this, they were literally saying that any mention of mental illness openly is attention-seeking. Even a "sorry guys, gonna take a break because badbrain is being stupid."

I don't think she and Pearl had fused before then. Pearl seemed pretty surprised by seeing Ruby and Sapphire fuse and when they run into Garnet again, Pearl just calls her "The Fusion." If they had fused before that point she probably wouldn't have regarded Garnet as being so alien.

I think with Rose, she's only being depicted the way she is ("older wiser lesbian", as OP put it) because we're mostly seeing her through the eyes of other characters/other characters' stories. The one time we saw a completely objective view of her, in Lion the Movie: Straight to Video, it was after she met Greg and learned more about humanity. I agree that with the limited screentime Rose has had, it's...not really a huge deal. We still have a lot of story to go through and learn more about her.

So basically you're either a troll or you're jealous that some people are comfortable and cope by talking things out instead of suffering by themselves because of stupid pride.

uh, ok, i see you moving those goalposts there

a whole lot of shit in this thread actually is people talking about how anyone who mentions their mental illnesses at all is a manipulative jackass.

most of the mental illness mentions that i see on my plurk are of the "having a bad brain day send cute animal pics" variety, not the "my life is soooooo hard because [laundry list of diagnoses] pity me and send money" variety.

i am skeptical of the latter but the former doesn't deserve to be lumped in with them.
