au where ruby works at fine dining and there's a really annoying regular

weiss calls her rose, occasionally "ruby" in this really flirty voice when she's trying to convince ruby into something (usually not good)

ruby calls her "miss schnee" and nothing else.

No, Jayce...What the fuck...He was dying of terminal illnes at like 30... Terminal illness caused by all the pollution in Zaun (Piltover mining operations, The Grey, the sewer system) .. What he really wanted was at least little bit more time to figure out and prevent the cause... To help the people of Zaun that work n live in the fissures...

But that part of Viktors character was lost at this point so whatever

Anyway... whats up.. S2 was very hollow.

Oh hey, that study showing men leave their wives when they get sick turns out to have been retracted in 2015 due to a coding error. I've seen it cited indirectly a bunch but never noticed anyone mention the retraction

The more I read about the "treatment" for amplified pain disorders and the guy who created it the more I think no this is fucking insane.

"Put them (usually children AROUND 12 YEARS OLD) in as much pain as possible through 6 hours of daily pt for up to 6 or more weeks"

"They do not talk about their pain or pain level at all, we only ask if the activity is easy, medium, or hard"

"Not everyone is a good fit for this program because it can further traumatize them"

"They cannot take pain medication or anything related like nausea medication during the treatment"

The guy who created it says that the invention of the pain scale has caused more people to develop chronic illnesses "because they're thinking more about pain" and by not thinking about it you will be cured.

Treatment for amplified pain disorders doesn't focus on treating the pain or making you feel less pain, it focuses on putting you in enough pain and desensitizing you (and almost surely traumatizing you) to the point that you just do everything through the pain.

And if you're teaching , again, CHILDREN that because the pain won't injure them they should just push through it even though supposedly it's one of the most painful disorders to have, what do you think is going to happen if they do get injured? If they get ulcers, or strain a muscle, or have chest pains because of a heart issue, or any other problem you can't obviously see? What are they supposed to just assume it's nothing?

And of course this isn't just children because adults have AMPS too they're just usually diagnosed with something more specific like fibromyalgia or CRPS, but this is especially horrible for children who's brains are growing and don't have the capacity to understand as much that this is wrong.

Why is your "treatment" to put usually children in as much pain as possible for up to months on end? So, what? That they essentially give up and assume they'll always have to push themselves far beyond their limits because, "it won't injure you", right? "It's just pain", right? Even though they're in excruciating pain?

Do you understand how unbelievably fucked that sounds?

Just want to say thank you to anyone who has ever interacted with me on here!

I struggle with sever social anxiety (and the autism really doesn't help, but when does it? Lol) and finding people who like the same stuff as me, and people enjoying what I post is really helping me!

I know interacting over the internet isn't exactly the same as being in the same room, but for me it feels just as terrifying, and you have all made it alittle easier and seriously- thank you.

I'm glad people like my rants about gay superheros :)

I know you've had to have already touched on it but you ask for Mouthwashing asks and your last post finally made me think of something to say: the one (1) time in the game when Jimmy gets the closest to asking Anya why she's keeping Curly alive. Buddy!! Why are YOU!!! Curly wasn't your Captain anymore the moment he started talking about moving on and leaving you behind; after the crash you realized he was just your little Redemption Barbie now. The first time we open the med cabinet I thought we were going to be able to kill Curly by pouring the disinfectant down his mouth instead of the painkillers. But no, Jimmy goes out of his way to keep him alive. His "why are you keeping him alive" (paraphrasing) felt so accusatory because it *is* an accusation. Everything he does is a self-report. He keeps Curly alive so he can force Curly to be whatever he wanted him to be-- his savior, his junior, his punching bag, his best friend, his mistake, his enemy. Anya escapes from Jimmy the only way she can in the end but by then he didn't give a shit about her anyway because Curly was the easier target.

Him asking that question to Anya could even potentially be a parallel to the pause before he tells Curly he's going to "take care of it" (or "handle it", idr). Curly had the opportunity to rob him of his power-- to stop him from crashing the ship, to assert his authority and step up-- but he didn't. Jimmy asking Anya why she's keeping Curly alive is in a way taunting her with a similar kind of opportunity: she hypothetically has the ability to rob Jimmy of his power over Curly, to use her authority as the medical officer to end Curly's care, but she can't. And Jimmy knows she can't, and she won't stop him from keeping Curly alive to use him, just like he knew Curly wouldn't stop him from crashing the ship. He only gives the chance when he already knows the answer.

I think this is a misconception, Jimmy is the one who brings it up. Anya doesn't even acknowledge the idea verbally outside of saying she feels nauseous, likely due to the pregnancy and the idea of eating him.

He mentions they all agreed to keep him alive and implies the first reason is a back up food source, though, that's likely his first reason and the others just couldn't bring themselves to kill a guy or thought he deserved it to some extent. I like to think of it less as him taunting her power and more him trying to supplement his ideas into her head the same way he would with Curly. It's very reminiscent of the last conversation he had with Curly of doing something dire and not getting any push back, not by way of her agreeing with him but a non answer.

The relationships between Anya, Curly and Jimmy heavily reflect each other specially when it comes to being victimized by him and how he gets in their head. Anya is way more aware than Curly but lacks the position/power to stop it while Curly is less aware/resigned due to how long it has likely been going on despite having the power to shut Jimmy down. Jimmy is dependent on the two to actually solve his problems and do most of the leg work but becomes hostile the moment he feels it undermines his perception of them or himself in relation.

I do agree that Jimmy is aware Anya won't fight back against him like Swansea does or question him like Daisuke will. He is putting her into the same space as Curly but the key difference is he doesn't see her as a person. He is using her to supplement the active role Curly can't be but doesn't have that loyal friend aspect from her as she just fears and resents him. He's projecting on to her a lot but she never really concedes or acknowledges it in the way Curly did. He hates it and the sort of emotional games he plays with her reaches their peak when she locks herself in medical.

It's very interesting to see how he acts in the post crash without Curly as he is 100% worse but you can see how much of that is because he is aware there is no one to actually cover for his sorry ass now.

also btw guys how messed up do you think Sabo's relationship with "happiness" is?

he has no good associations with "family" but could "freedom" and "happiness" also be mutually exclusive for him? considering his parents insistence that for sabo the source of happiness is being useful... this had to leave some impact right? right?
