2025.01.23 17:21 Kotopuffs Creepy Rozemyne Worship [No Spoilers]
Look, I get it. Rozemyne was amazing, fun, and quirky. And I loved her as much as the next Bookworm fan.
But can we talk about the side stories at the end of each volume, where every single character in the series seemed to be obsessively thinking about her?
The chapters from the perspective of side characters would've been great opportunities to flesh them out and make them fully realized individuals with agency. But instead, Miya Kazuki seemed to use them for the opposite reason—as tools to highlight how the entire world revolved around Rozemyne.
It went to absurd lengths. A knight dealing with relationship drama would randomly think, "I wonder what Rozemyne would advise me about this." I remember almost dropping my phone right there. Like, buddy, Rozemyne isn't a relationship counselor. Why is she living rent-free in your head during your love life?
It happened in almost every side-character chapter. I get that Kazuki wanted to show how Rozemyne had influenced the world around her. But holy hell, this quickly escalated from "Wow, what an influential protagonist" to "Are we sure this isn't a cult?"
Don't get me wrong. Ascendance of a Bookworm is still one of my favorite light novel series. But I couldn't help feeling creeped out by the side stories where every character sounded like they'd been brainwashed into the Church of Rozemyne, with no one capable of independent thought.
Anyone else feel this way?
Oh, and here's a fun idea: Make it a drinking game. Choose a side chapter at random, and take a shot every time someone thinks or talks about Rozemyne. Actually, on second thought, please don't. You'd die from alcohol poisoning.
(I wonder what Rozemyne would advise me about this post.)

Im not sure why but i just caught my residents attacking a Mother in my base when i had the "no drinking" policy on. Is it because they tried to seduce someone and they fought back?

2025.01.23 17:21 Shy_Boi_92 M26- I'm a Canadian guy currently in the Netherlands Visiting family!
Hey! As the title says I'm a 26 year old Canadian guy visiting some family in the Netherlands. I've been here for over a week and will be in the country for about 5 more days. I'd love to meet some people from the Netherlands!
I've seen so many amazing things here! The women here in the Netherlands are absolutely beautiful, the men here stand tall like sky scrapers, the public transit has been wonderful and people have been very kind! I usually use apps like Whisper to meet and chat with local people but the app isn't working at the moment, so here I am turning to Reddit!
I'd prefer to talk to some Dutch women but I'm open to chatting with anyone. Most of my in person interactions have been with the men of the Netherlands so getting to talk to some women and get their views and opinions on places to visit and things to do would be a nice change of pace. Please send me a DM or drop a comment. Let's make some connections and maybe a life long friendship!

2025.01.23 17:21 InevitableKiwi9655 Is he still interested in a relationship?
so l've been recently talking to this guy I dated in middle school again. He dm me first on my birthday and basically ended up asking if we could be friends again and I said yes. And ever since then we've been talking every single day and he has invited me to his house to hang out a few times and things were going really good. and we both told each other that we wanted to be together and we were working towards that. But he went back to college and so he's a lot more busier now and so he just recently decided that it would be better if we just stay friends especially because all we kinda did was argue and i told him he didn’t have to worry about me anymore and that he can leave so he thought i didn’t care about him anymore. But he still text me every day still and the conversations are a lot better now. but I don't know how much longer I can be friends with him because of how I feel for him. Is there a chance in the future that maybe we get together? Or will we just stay friends?

So my colleague's parents own a duplex. The upstairs neighbors have been renting for 6 months and they gave them notice 6 months in advance that their daughter would be moving in after their lease was up.
They refuse to move without receiving 2 months of free rent and moving expenses paid.
What is the law? What can they do? Their daughter already gave notice to their landlord and now if these people don't move, they have nowhere to go at the moment.

2025.01.23 17:21 Brock_ETH Reimagining Blockchains: Moving Beyond Money to Embrace Time as the Core Value
As the blockchain industry continues to evolve, a new perspective is emerging that challenges traditional views about blockchain technology. Rather than viewing blockchains merely as tools for financial transactions, experts are suggesting that we rethink blockchains as systems that primarily track and manage time. This shift in focus has the potential to reshape the way we think about decentralized technologies and their applications in sectors ranging from finance to supply chain management.
Barry Silbert, founder of Digital Currency Group (DCG), has been a leading voice in advocating for blockchain’s broader potential. Silbert argues that understanding blockchains as time-keeping mechanisms could be the key to unlocking their true value. He highlights that current blockchain models are often viewed through the narrow lens of money and value exchange, but the real opportunity lies in blockchain's ability to track and verify time across a decentralized network, providing transparency and security in ways that traditional systems cannot.
However, as the industry continues to advance, there are growing calls for innovation in governance models to ensure the sustainable growth of blockchain technology. Silbert points out that some industry leaders may need to reconsider their positions, with the ongoing shift in blockchain thinking leading to the idea that certain frameworks may need to "resign" from their outdated models to make way for more forward-thinking structures. These changes could replace old systems that view blockchain only as a financial tool, paving the way for a more holistic approach that benefits various industries.
Kathleen Breitman, co-founder of Tezos, echoes these sentiments, stressing that blockchain’s true potential lies in its capacity to revolutionize industries beyond finance. She emphasizes the importance of evolving blockchain’s use cases and governance structures to ensure the technology is used in ways that minimize risks, including fraud, and promote long-term sustainability. Breitman advocates for continued innovation and a rethinking of what blockchains can accomplish, arguing that the technology’s future is much broader than anyone initially imagined.
As the blockchain landscape shifts toward a greater understanding of its potential, industry leaders like Silbert and Breitman continue to lead the conversation, urging the community to embrace new ideas and governance models. With time as the central value, blockchain technology can be redefined to serve a wide range of applications, ultimately transforming the way we interact with decentralized systems.

2025.01.23 17:21 Extreme_Witness2064 Afraid to commit
I’m curious as to everyone’s thoughts on what it is about physically saying out loud “I’m going to quit” or committing to someone else, like your community or even the daily challenge “today I won’t drink” that makes it seem harder and scarier to actually do it. I am afraid to commit to saying that I’m not going to drink today right now because I know later it will be really hard not to and I know that if I fail it will make it even harder on me to follow through the next time.
I struggle badly with binge-purge cycles which is why I’ve learned that I can’t just cut back but I have to completely quit drinking alcohol. Because I have proven that I can’t white knuckle it for awhile but as soon as I start it all back over again it’s so much harder to get another streak going.

Recently my main roblox account has been terminated due to "Account Theft", most likely because my friend did a robux rollback from a gamepass he bought from me and got my account terminated. Roblox Support does not want to help me, they have told me no information whatsoever and they insist that they have told me EVERYTHING they "can" at this time, https://preview.redd.it/rrtf3osj1see1.png?width=711&format=png&auto=webp&s=9f7871eedce2af8d89a3a38f336ab9505572d5c6 Bonnie the (bot) has replied to several of my emails with the same thing, the same message, same everything, i have not gotten a single response that explains my situation and i have my appeal made fully, the account i supposedly stole was literally willingly given access to me by my friend, which i am still a friend of to this day and he has also attempted to make appeals of my behalf but cant. This platform has stole 8 years of my life and thousands of dollars from my hands alongside a successful UGC group i was running and making money from, basically substenance, The part that pisses me off is that i am INNOCENT, and roblox support wont even read anything. I need some suggestions or if someone can contact an admin or forward this situation to someone who can give it a better spotlight, additional info in this twitter thread: DT3M (@DT3Mrblx) / X Thank you for your time submitted by zaxkodie to RobloxHelp [link] [comments] |

What are your guy’s favorite consoles throughout generations?
Gen 1 and 2 I can’t say much about since I never owned either or
Gen 3 has to be NES for me, just too classic
Gen 4 has to be the SNES for me
Gen 5 might be a hot take but I pic the N64
Gen 6 is a really tough one but the ps2 just slightly edges out the gamecube for me, but even the xbox is a close 3rd
Gen 7 xbox 360 hands down
Gen 8 ps4 although I actually don’t like this generation that much
Gen 9 ps5, xbox series x, and the switch are all tied for me
What do you guys think?

2025.01.23 17:21 dhammaquestions Discretionary Application - Medical Professional Documentation Question
My doctor will not be available until after the deadline for my law school application. One of the issues discussed in my discretionary statement is my recent diagnosis of adhd and the beneficial impact that a medication is having. The law school requires supporting documentation from a medical professional. The only thing I can produce at this time would be the Accommodation letter my doctor previously provided for the LSAT. Would uploading this letter as proof of my adhd diagnosis be helpful or more damaging to my application as a whole? This is what it reads:
"The candidate has been diagnosed with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) with primarily an inattentive presentation. The patients primarily inattentive symptoms interfere with or reduce the quality of social and academic functioning. The candidate has difficulty sustaining attention, paying attention to detail, poor organization, is easily distracted by external stimuli, often loses his train of thought and can have a hard time paying attention in conversations or when spoken to directly. The candidate would benefit from extra time on the LSAT due to issues paying attention when reading and difficulty organizing his thoughts. The candidate would benefit from more frequent breaks d/t difficulty sustaining attention for long periods of time. Lastly, the candidate should not have to complete the experimental section of the LSAT if applicable as it would be diffcult due to the extended amount of time required to complete this section."

2025.01.23 17:21 GothicSensibilities My dog’s trial period ends in one week and I don’t know what to do
I currently have two dogs: Winnie, who I got 6 years ago and Briskit, my partner’s dog that he got 7 years ago. They don’t get along so we use a baby gate to separate the house. I love and work with dogs, so I’ve fostered dogs every now and again (Winnie doesn’t like females). My last foster I ended up keeping. He passed away last summer. I found a dog online by happenstance and drive an hour and a half to meet him. I instantly fell in love. I brought Winnie there twice to meet him, and they did well. I ended up bringing him home for a 2 week trial period. On the third day, I discovered he resource guards his food and crate. This normally wouldn’t be an issue, as I’ve trained and worked with dogs with many issues, but Winnie also has food aggression. She is trained — she wasn’t allowed around food when she was with her late brother. She is fed in separate rooms. However, his resource guarding is so concentrated to his crate that if she even walks by him, he will try and attack her. She is dominant, so she will try and attack back. Outside of the crate, there isn’t an ounce of aggression. He sleeps and leaves her alone, vice versa. I understand it’s only been a week and dogs need a couple of months minimum to decompress, so his crate aggression could be temporary, or it could get worse. There’s no way of knowing. I keep going back and forth on whether I should keep him and work with him, potentially get even more attached or end the trial period and return him (it’s a no-kill shelter) to avoid a potential dangerous situation. They are both around 50lbs, so a fight would be very dangerous. I guess I’m trying to ask advice on whether I should return him or not. I keep going back and forth. He has also growled at me when I had originally tried to pet him in his crate. submitted by GothicSensibilities to ComfortLevelPod [link] [comments] |
