This Is Like The Weirdest Non-anime Post I’ll Make But I Recently Cut Ties With A Long Time Friend
This is like the weirdest non-anime post I’ll make but I recently cut ties with a long time friend because she prioritized her partner over her friendships.
For the longest time I would be so confused why someone who said they were scared to lose me, would fly me out to visit them and stay up at night talking to me would also leave me on delivered for 6-8 weeks at a time. And she was so strict about that being a non-negotiable about her. She was unemployed, didn’t go to school, and didn’t have a car. She would tell me that there would be nothing going on in her life because she can’t do much but play video games at home.
I would beg her to get back to me sooner because I didn’t want her to miss out on big celebrations in my life but she almost would. However, for some reason she was there for me for emergencies.
I confronted her about it because I no longer wanted to tell her anything because the being left on delivered hurt me.
We concluded that it was an incompatibility issue but she made a statement what brought so much closure. She genuinely believed and strictly followed the principle, that if you have a partner/dating someone, you don’t need to maintain friends the traditional way. You shouldn’t share anything more about yourself or make time for others because you’re not dating them. The majority of emotional intimacy would be with the partner. Like purposefully not put effort into a friendship anymore. That’s why she was so strict and even proud of leaving majority of her friends on delivered for weeks to months on end. She told me that she compromised with me by getting back to me within 6 weeks rather than 8 weeks like what she does with her friend group. Her comments made me feel like I was being too needy for being left on delivered for 6-8 weeks at a time. Doesn’t that just fuck you up? She believed it was abnormal to check up with friends once or twice a month. It was abnormal to know how they were on a day or week to week basis because she’s not dating them.
She got a little defensive when I responded back with that it sounds like you center your partner above all else.
People sure are interesting. She said it works for her other friends, despite her not knowing them very well. Also, all of her friends are dudes who she plays video games with. I wanted to tell her maybe the reason why they don’t say anything about it is because they know you refuse to change.
In all fairness, I guess I should have noticed I was her only female friend. Also she made a comment before about how her perfect friend is someone she sees for dinner twice a year. That’s not a friend, that’s a co worker.

Final fantasy 16 thoughts on Clive
Look, I love Clive, but his personality was better when he was a teenager.
From the small, brief cut scenes and information, we learn about our main protagonist when he was younger, he sounds like a such a fun character, the opposite of brooding, dark and serious.
For example, Clive was a total theater kid according to his uncle. Remember that really cheeky wink during his shield ceremony with his brother? Signaling to him that everything will be alright.
I noticed the small animation quirks in flashbacks like with Torgal or the intro, show his really dramatic posture and his interests. Him petting Joshua’s head after the tutorial, moongazing with Jill etc
I understand why Clive changed but I just wish he kept his personality or at least smiled a bit more into his 30s.

Sephiroth really does care for Cloud at all times, so as a result, maybe he is always in danger.
Another note
CXS owes QL 10 years worth of rent and he has student loans to pay. QL is his childhood best friend, but also his landlady AND his boss-!
LG is his best friend who he bonded over basketball with and feels obligated to him because of their shared powers. It was noted by QL that LG and CXS are opposites and normally would not be friends.
This friend group was going to fall apart, not because LG was indirectly murdered by both QL+CXS BUT the concept that you owe your best friend thousands of dollars before even graduating uni is wild.
I just feel like the whole QL being CXS’ boss, landlady, debt owner and friend is one giant conflict of interest. LG getting annoyed at CXS’ rash decisions doesn’t help. It’s never a good idea to involve money with friendship.
But in the end, it was murder that split them apart and not bad financial decisions you make when you’re 12.
Link click season 2 Animation
Don’t want to be too nitpicky but the animation for the first two episodes was kinda choppy. Also felt like it wasn’t as creatively directed (animation, background, sound cues etc) as the first few episodes.
Hope it gets better because I loved the teaser trailers - very stylish and I thought it would have the same energy
After reflecting on the Buddy daddies finale, the only loose thread was what Miri thought about her two dads.
Does she believe they’re just roommates who will platonically raise her for the rest of their lives? How are her dads seen by her classmates?
Why didn’t they animated a scene when some kid in pre school asks her why she has two dads? Im sorry but there is no way in the 11 years she has been with both Kazuki and Rei, did that question never come up. She lives in Japan, where everyone values conformity. Why is no one questioning her and her family?
I know my questions won’t be answered because of the show’ no homo status. I’m so sure that it’s an unspoken fact in the show that everyone in the show just believes Kazuki and Rei are Miri’s baby sitters - even if it means for life.
If Japanese people (who don’t leave their country) think anything similar to Chinese people (who don’t leave their country), gay people aren’t real so it will never cross their mind at all. Unironically no homo folks.
light yagami is so fucking stupid in like a month they narrowed it down from like it could be anyone in the world.. to it could be anyone in japan to it could be anyone in the kanto region to it could be any student in the kanto region to its honestly probably one of the family members of these two policemen and my god this mans son is so fucking weird whats wrong with him like honestly i think L should have just taken the risk and hit light with a car one day and been like huh funny the kira murders stopped right this policemans son got hit by a car i asked my chauffeur to drive into him funny how that works out
What’s the context of the photo???
It’s so random and so out of character but it’s funny.
I like the idea that Denji has such bad luck with girls just fucking starts going for dudes. And Yoshida is perfect candidate for him.
Can Sephiroth leave Cloud alone for one second, he is on vacation.
