Wow, thanks for writing this. I’ve never read the books, and have only started watching the show now, so I didn’t have any idea that the author was kinda problematic. I’m glad the show has been doing with some of the more troublesome aspects of the books better, and while I wanted to start reading the books, as a…

She would also have been around 4 years old when it happened, so not surprising she didn’t know about it.

Jesus Stellen, that’s some virile sperm there.

Someone needs to submit this to McMansion Hell.

Wait, have you seen John Wick? With Keanu? Baba Yaga is a reference to that. But I would totally take a Keanu+Helen action and/or romantic comedy now.

But what if Baba Yaga is played by Keanu Reeves? These are hard choices.

I use this gif way too much ;)

I actually don’t remember that one. But I’m just saying, we do have decent video game movies, sure there are just not many of the out there, but they exist, case in point Resident Evil(s)!

Resident Evil I?

Oh, totally. I’m open to meeting new people for sure, I have a new group of friends who are really great. Doesn’t mean that I still have residual issues though. Wah wah.

I have the opposite: even after dreams, i’m a bit bitter and resentful, even though i’ve “moved on” in the sense that i have new friends who are amazing and supportive. the whole thing leaves a bad, grudge-filled taste in my mouth but that’s probably because i’m also a vindictive bitch haha.

I just responded something similar to someone else! I also gained trust (and confidence on my part) issues because of girlfriend break-ups. One took me years to get over, and right when I started to regain myself, another entire group of friends randomly cut me out (like, to this day I still don’t know what happened…

Ugh I’m sorry to hear that. I hope you find a good friend or two you can trust again soon. I’ve been in a similar situation in the past and it really sucks.

Ugh same. Weirdly, my friend break-ups were actually much more heart breaking than any boyfriend break-up I’ve ever had. I gained weird trust and confidence issues because of them more than from any boy.

Maybe we can combine your ideas where you start off in the greys and if you get enough up votes from people in black, you get promoted to the blacks too? So a whole bunch of promotions from greys can’t promote someone into black, but a whole bunch of black promotions would... I dunno I’m just spitballing.

That’s a good analogy thanks.

Ah I see, thanks for the info! Although I knew they were descendants of French Canada, I actually wasn’t sure whether Cajuns settled outside of Lousiana or just there, hence me weirdly writing Cajun-Louisiana.

I kinda like the up/down vote idea, and I also like having greys because sometimes trolls do post random shit, like last year when that person bombed a few articles with mutilated animal photos. My issue with the greys is how one gets out of the greys - I don’t post often, just here and there, which means I will…
