>My current least favourite cope has been people claiming to ship MelJayVik to avoid accusations of being racist/misogynistic when it's blatantly transparent they don't GAF about her. She gets turned into their cuckinsert or their get out of jail free card, feelsbadman
God I'm so glad I'm not the only one who noticed this bullshit lol. They literally turned her into a beard for their faggot ass ship just so they can seem "progressive" and I fucking hate it. Usually I don't take ships seriously but the misogyny has been so blantant and rampant that someone should seriously consider writing a fucking study on it. For years the fandom yelled about how much they hated Jayce's character and now suddenly he's their gay icon all because he fucked off into the void with their favorite twink. Even now they still don't give a shit about him, but drawing/writing self inserts and OCs is too cringe, apparently despite them clearly using Jayce as a self insert by completely erasing his characterization. I remember someone stating that it's easier to write/draw slash because the male characters aren't a threat to their fantasy compared to a woman, whom they would only compare themselves to and feel lesser than. That's why I will never take these women seriously when they say they aren't misogynistic or self hating because they let their hatred of women slip every time.

I do not give a flying fuck about Jayvik, I just want Mel to fuck both of them, I don't want Jayce and Viktor, I want Mel to fuck each one of them. I'm probably alone in this sentiment though.

See, this is what it should be.
I think Mels plot was poorly handled in S2, but her mary sue magic is such girlish wish fulfillment that I find it endearing. It reminds me of people on tt joking about listening to certain songs and daydreaming about unleashing their telekinetic powers when the beat drops like this is the Titanium music video. The next step in the unabashed girl fantasy is to give her a harem of orbiters, but no, instead we live in the lameass timeline where this is a painfully rare occurrence.

Post practical advice. Can range from laundry secrets to getting the best deals on airline tickets to emergency surgery. I'll start.

Before you do a load of laundry, add a splash of white vinegar to it. This will help get rid of lingering smells on the clothes.

If you're making spaghetti pasta and can't tell if it's cooked, throw it against a cabinet door. If it sticks, it's done. I've been doing this for years and it never fails. Vid related.

Samefag, you can do it with all types of pasta but spaghetti noodles work the best.

No. 2290645

>>2290622
I know this works but isn’t it easier to just sample a bit of pasta? Or are we so scared of eating an undercooked noodle that we’re gonna fling it at the wall instead. Also this does not work with other types of pasta. My bowties are not going to stick to the wall when they’re done. It probably would work with linguini but that’s pretty much it.

Not really. Letting it cool down enough to taste it without burning your tongue takes longer than letting it cool down enough to throw it against a wall. Also, it's just more fun. It does work with macaroni.

I'm really envious of the classmates in my art class who rarely ever show up but get all the work done (and they do a really good job too). The professor tells us how important it is to figure out your schedule and show up, being present means you have more discipline yadda yadda, but every damn time it's the moids who show up an hour late because they were playing videogames or the girl who doesn't show up for two weeks that make the best work. I've attended every class and all my projects look like ass or get submitted late because I work too much outside of school.

I feel like because I've been so isolated I barely ever interact with anyone, I can't formulate thoughts anymore and I can't get myself to write a fucking essay or anything though I'm trying… Idk I have a fucking verbal block. I understand what the textbook says but I can't explain it in my own words. Every time I manage to write an assignment, I do it at the last minute and though I end up getting the highest grade, I completely forget what I wrote and how I even organised myself to do that. Like, I don't fucking understand, I don't know how to change this, I don't want to interact with people and participating in classes makes me too anxious, I'd rather stay home and read assigned texts. I still can't cope with writing… I can write all this bullshit here and some useless journals but can't process what I read and put it into text. Like I am losing ability to use words. Help…

You don't need to go to college to get a job above retail. But even with an art or english degree you can get a better job even if it's not directly related. You're only a tard if you go into massive debt for it. you can be a professor; you only need a master's degree, and obviously you can work with teenagers in education just like you would as a professor.
But also look into web & ui/ux design, most marketing jobs at companies include graphic design, cosmetology, architectural drafting, media production.
Third of all you might not work a job that you love but you like it and enables you to live the life you want to life. No moid's dream job was being a plumber but they're making 6 figures out of it
I hope you enjoyed your lolcow career advice

Post about your journals and journal inspirations here!

Some icebreakers:
- What made you start?
- What kind of notebook do you write in?
- Where do you get your journals?
- How often do you write and do you have a preference with what you write with (favorite pens)?
- Do you decorate your journals? If so, with what and how?
- Any favorite stores/companies to get all your journals and journaling goodies from?

I am 100% drunk and that’s why this convo is happening so don’t ban me. I spoiled one of my bf Christmas present ideas its the only gift I didn’t already get and wanted to double check the style Why do I want to dump my bf for telling me that he would rather have his racist and probably misogynist dead grandfather’s jackets tailored than me buy one I think he would look cute in? It annoyed the hell out of me when I asked why he wants them and he said he feels like he needs to and he wasn’t even close to him at all. PS the jackets he wants to tailor are uglier than the one in the pic

holy shit so today i learned that the baby that was photographed for nirvana's "nevermind" album grew up basically negatively affected by his photo taken in that manner. he wanted to sue the band for using the picture, but was warned that he would be countersued to high heavens. he was also contacted by pedophiles and was in several dangerous situations while he was growing up because they thought that photo of him as a baby was sexy or whatever. he married in 2021 and his wife talks about how he still feels distressed by the whole thing, especially regarding being targeted by pedophiles.

I always thought it was weird af to have an actual naked baby on your cover. Like at least try to cover the genitals. It's heart breaking to know he went through a lot because of it, including pedos chasing him. fucking hell, who greenlit that album cover idea?

No. 2290204

>>2290175
I feel some sympathy to him because most people would be distressed to have their naked baby photo out there for the world to see, but his case never quite sat right with me either because of the way he repeatedly "recreated" the album cover and got Nirvana tattoos and did interviews all the time.
Maybe this is just a case that he isn't a perfect victim as they say, either way the point stands that he didn't consent to this thing that shaped the rest of his life.

Yes he milked it to high heavens, pedophiles only knew how to contact him because he kept repeatedly putting himself in the spotlight. Idgaf about this

I regret not lifting weights earlier and beating the shit out of the girl who bullied me in Jr.High. I also regret not taking school as seriously and making more of an effort to talk to people. I also regret doubting myself so much since it’s very clear now that I can literally do anything. Also regret not taking better of myself but that’s improved a lot over the years.

Don't know whether to go sleep or binge-read another cow thread? Get milk or tea? Dedicate your remaining life time to Dr*ver or Dano, and don't want to keep any of those important decisions in Sanic-samas capable hands? Fret not–present your dilemma, let farmers burn some sage and have them take that burden off of your exhausted shoulders.
Keep US laws, and more importantly, TPO, in mind and don't ask whether to an hero or which fun method to use, we're not serious like that.
