Just an ordinary myopic internet enjoyer.

I overthought this and wondered if a 48" thing can really go all the way in, but I was surprised to know that “The average erect penis is longer than the average vagina. ” and that it’s not really possible to ‘break through’ the cervix and go further.
Even ignoring girth, it’d probably be very painful for her (without training, I suppose) if someone just rams their 40" into her.
This is not a judgement of the musical genre and I think it’s way more profound and expressive than the average commodified pop music we have. However, I remember making a report about the history of music (for an arts appreciation class in college) and I ended the report with some Japanoise (a genre of noise music) like this one:
The teacher was really delighted, but my classmates were like “WTF?”
EDIT: Reworded some confusing sentence construction
Oh! Forgot which event happened after which other event in that long cutscene after the final boss battle.
I thought Squall met the younger Edea after receiving Ultimecia’s powers. I only remembered the fact that Squall implanted the idea of SeeD into Edea, but I couldn’t remember how exactly it happened.
As for Rinoa, back when I first played the game, I was a bit younger than Squall is, and Rinoa annoyed the hell out of me—far more than I got annoyed with Selphie, supposedly the annoying one. Younger me would have preferred if Squall fell in love with someone else, heck, even Seifer would have been a better love interest for Squall as far as younger me was concerned. I guess then, their love story worked nicely, and younger me was just too stubbornly edgy to appreciate that.
I think Laguna and Raine’s love story resonated with me far better because it’s far less “abrasive” and in-your-face. It might be a more bland and ordinary love story, but it’s a nice foil to the main love story between Squall and Rinoa.
EDIT: failed my spoiler formatting
That last sentence in the first spoiler is more or less my take on her situation.
I saw Ultimecia as more of a tragic character than someone who really wanted power for its own sake, which is why I don’t really see her as wanting to be a god. She just wanted a way out of the time loop. As you’ve said: she went mad from repeated (?) failure.
Coincidentally, I thought Squall, at the very end, could have had ended the time loop. In that cutscene after Ultimecia’s defeat, as he was wandering back to his own time, he met a much younger Edea, who has then just inherited Ultimecia’s power. He could have chosen not to tell Edea about SeeD at this point, but I don’t think he’s aware he was talking to that Edea he knew (even though I think the surroundings should have sufficiently clued him in).
I found Squall falling in love with the daughter of Laguna’s first crush to be a nice little thing. I also liked Laguna far better as a character, and his love story with Raine a far superior love story than the main one. I think he really fell in love with Raine, but his fatherly love for Ellone far outweighed it.
Was Ultimecia characterized as (a) god, or wanting to be one?
I think Ultimecia wanted a world that consists of only her, hence she could be considered a god in her own world. She succeeded until the power of friendship and love defeated her but …
I don’t think it counts under what I understood the prompt in the OP is all about. But then again, it’s been a while since I last played that game, and I hardly paid much attention to the story (got too icked out by the love story). Cool game mechanics tho.
I’m echoing a lot of the replies here by saying “No.” Even if I’m given a choice as to what kind of life I’d live, still no.
Even if people say there’s a lot of good things in life, or that there are people living their dreams in this world, still no. I don’t play the lottery, even if I might end up with more money than I could ever hope to spend. The same logic applies here.
There would be no me to regret not existing if I don’t exist.
I changed schools. Now, even if I wanted to approach her, I can’t!
Kidding aside, I asked myself “if I am so anxious even approaching her, how can I even be in a relationship with her?” and basically forced myself to decide whether to: “yeah, this is a crush that I won’t be doing anything about it, better to not let it linger and move on” or “I must do something about the anxiety.”
If my feelings is not intense enough for the second option, the feelings will die soon enough, and will not make me regret that much.
In reality, I tend to think “no, they’re more than likely not into me (due to various reasons)”, and I’ll just let the feelings be until they decay. Did it lead to regrets? Not really. The few times I’ve actually asked and approached someone I had a crush on, they were flattered, but ultimately told me they’re not into me. The more it happened, the more I felt justified in my way of thinking.
I know right? Kids don’t need any reason to carve penises onto desks and tables and walls. They just do.
One of the older toilets used in a couple of the old school buildings (demolished for a newer one after I graduated) was permanently closed because it became so full of shit.
It was a toilet on a separate building, that was used for a couple of old buildings (one from the 1930’s if the local oral history is to be believed), and another one from the 1970’s. The stench was so unberable that the classrooms near it were also abandoned.
Oh, the school wasn’t infamous for that. I think, pushing shit aside, it’s so wonderfully mediocre that it didn’t really have anything it was famous or infamous for.
I use Anki to keep my French and Japanese from deteriorating any further. Why those langauges? For Japanese, it’s the usual answer: anime and manga. For French, I had to learn it in school and I just don’t want to let it be forgotten.
A good number of the decks I use for language learning, I made for myself. Those that I’ve gotten from AnkiWeb were already gone, but here’s some similar ones:
French Sentences — a collection of French sentences, sorted from easiest (most simple) to hardest (most complex). This deck begins with very simple sentences, and slowly gets harder as you progress.
I’m pretty sure this is an exact, if not a close copy of the one I got a while back.
Dictionary of Japanese Grammar - DoJG — a deck made from the entries of “Dictionary of Japanese Grammar” (basic to advanced).
My copy of this deck has undergone significant changes in card design (and function, like showing a random selection of the example sentences), but this one should be similar.
Using vocabulary and sentences derived from Smart.FM Core 2k and 6k and sorted by Cangy’s program via 2001.Kanji.Odyssey kanji order. This detailed deck is designed so each new card contains the minimum amount of new kanji (and by proxy new words) creating an optimal i+1 learning environment.
I think if not fleshed out in the mythology being used in the setting, it’s in the DM’s prerogative. If I were DM, I’d say the Phoenix has to actually die before it can respawn.
Slicing off a Phoenix’s wings will just result in an injured and very pissed-off Phoenix.
Moreover, I’d stipulate that whatever Phoenix parts (butchered, raw, or cooked, or even partly-digested) would disappear whenever that Phoenix respawns. And for a spicy twist: someone who digests any part of a Phoenix will have a psychic link to the Phoenix. Wisdom check after every long rest (three days after ingesting the Phoenix) to determine whether or not the person retains control of their body. Failing this wisdom check thrice in a row results in the Phoenix gaining complete control. Succeeding this wisdom check thrice in a row results in the person regaining complete control of their own body.
EDIT:
Thinking about this more, I think this can be fleshed out even more. There is only one Phoenix, which was eaten by a bunch of people believing eating it would result in gaining whatever powers the Phoenix originally had, maybe being impervious to fire. However, the Phoenix took over their bodies instead. Many many many years later, the Phoenix never really dies: it just choose a body it controls, and transforms it to “its original body”. Thus, now, the Phoenix is known for its “immortality”.
The problem with ingesting Zeus is that I’d have a good chance (nearly 100% based on my Greek mythology knowledge) I’d end up being pregnant and incurring Hera’s wrath, or being whisked to Olympus as his winebearer… or both!
I’ve actually tried that once, but the Jesus wafer ended up real soggy.
Charcoal grilled phoenix might be good! Maybe basted in some really hot chili sauce? Or maybe even as simple as a soy sauce based baste. Keeping the phoeinix moist with some basting liquid is probably a good way to keep it from burning.
I don’t mind a deep-fried baby Phoenix tho.
Jesus wafers with grape jelly is something I’d definitely snack on.
I have blocked 37 users (on this account). I haven’t had any need to block communities nor instances, thankfully enough.
I usually block users for being spammy, or outright just spamming shit. Otherwise, I tend to treat blocking as the nuclear option which I only use if I’m absolutely fed up with a lemmy user/community/instance.
EDIT:
just added a parenthetical phrase for clarification.
Oh, yeah!!
We can say “Yoink that thing and yeet it out of here,” and even if the person doesn’t know what ‘yoink’ nor ‘yeet’ is, they can probably guess what you want them to do just from the sound “feels” alone.
Seconding this. I originally came from lemmy.world, but eventually mained on lemm.ee after some really bad downtime issues around July/August 2023.
I also keep accounts on other instances as a backup, but I sort of use them as separating different interests, like my lemmy.dbzer0 account is for the tech-related interests, while this one is the more general one. If ever I follow more anime-related communities, I might make one on an anime-centric instance.
I prefer “yote”, but I wasn’t even thinking it’s the past tense, funny enough. I think what I had in mind earlier is “yote = had yeeted” but upon thinking more about it, it doesn’t make any sense.
“Yeeted” seems to be becoming more common than “yote” tho, but it isn’t too bad.
And I forgot that large loads can go by the back entrance. XD
It’s probably has enough to accommodate 48" (with enough training), or even more.
