I talked to my psychologist about how I don't want to have sex with men because I don't think vaginas are appreciated by men, in general.
I told her straight men sexualise and fetishize women who have penises but straight women and gay men don't do that with men who have vaginas. And that this means penises are more liked & valued. She said the vast majority of men have no interest in transgender women pre op and post op and that the vast majority have no interest in women who have penises nor that type of porn, sex work/sex tourism industry.
I said men are more attracted to a performance or costume of femininity (clothes, makeup, hair) than they are to actual women, so they are attracted to feminized men, and find a woman with an unshaven body, an overweight woman, very short hair woman or UNfeminine woman more of a turn off than feminized men. And that men think femininity=submissive and wanting to be fucked. So the men who look feminine are seen in that way. Whereas women and gay men are attracted to both feminine men and masculine men (think of all the androgynous male celeb heartthrobs over the years) and not just to masculinity itself, so they would find feminine men less of a turn off than masculine women. She said not at all.
I said oral is believed to be much more commonly performed on men than performed on women and that this isn't because of men being selfish, since gay men are men and have no issues about giving oral. She said oral is 50/50 between the genders.
I said vaginas are seen as gross and taboo and have stigma and that penises are more casual and normalised. She said not at all. She also said periods are not taboo, just private. I said gay men are known to be far more openly disgusted by and insulting about vaginas than lesbians are about penises. She said not at all. I said lesbians are more open to transgender women than gay men are open to transgender men. She said not at all.
I said large penises, boobs and butts are more appreciated and liked than any vagina type. I said that many bisexual men say that they are bi just for penis but not for the rest of a man and many bisexual women say that they are bisexual but for the rest of a woman but not the vagina. I said sex is not viewed as real sex without a penis and that sex is viewed to be all about the penis, so lesbian sex is not taken seriously. She said not at all.
I said vaginas are seen as submissive and penises are seen as dominant and that people think sexually dominant women are mostly about penis imitation in the form of strap ons and pegging. She said not at all.
I meant these things about people in general (not every single man or woman) and she said I was wrong about the vast majority of people. I even asked my parents and sister in a separate occasion, and they agreed with her. She also said people on Reddit who answer questions and ask questions are not so normal because most mainstream people don't do that, so to be wary of what I read on here.
What do you think?

2023.03.30 17:35 shagert AITA for telling my friend she can't bring her dog to my apartment
Hi all
Bare with me here. My partner and I are planning into a 3 bedroom loft style apartment in June. We signed the lease and everything. Only down side is that it's a no dogs building. Which is fine for my partner and I since we aren't planning to get a dog just yet.
My friend who has the sweetest golden retriever ever is pushing me about letting her dog still come over to hang out when she comes over. This is fine in my current apartment since dogs are allowed. I told her the dog can't come over anymore since it's a no dogs allowed building. And she kept saying that she doesn't know of any apartment complexes that are against a dog just visiting for a a short time and it's fine if they aren't staying long term. I told her no because I'm not willing to risk getting kicked out of this place. (Its a besutiful apartment thay is perfect for my partner and I). And my thinking if that yes this apartment company is dog friendly but only certain buildings. So people are obviously choosing this building to be away from dogs and people could have severe allergies or fears or anything else.
Note: the apartment is going to be on the third floor so it would be quite hard to hide an 80 lb dog while getting to said apartment.
But she got fairly mad at me that I don't want him to come over once we move. And I told her it's not like I don't want to see him (the dog) anymore and I'll come over or we can go on walks or go to the dog park. But he can't come into my new place.
So am I the asshole? (I don't think I am but just want to see if there could be another side I'm not seeing)

2023.03.30 17:33 Henshin2002 [M4A PLAYING F][DISCORD ONLY]:Togruta/Star Wars love
Hello there! I am coming to you today with a Star Wars prompt I have been interested in doing so for a while!
My prompt is an AU that, as you probably guessed, takes places in the Star Wars universe. In this AU, not only did Anakin never turned to the darkside and defeated Palpatine, eradicating the last Sith for a good while, but also Ahsoka never left the Jedi Order to begin with. Our plot will start a few years after the events of the revamped Revenge of the Sith, where Ahsoka and my character, both 2 very well established Jedi Knights in their early 20s, are in a secret relationship, knowing full well that the Council would never accept them. My main hopes for this roleplay is to have a more wholesome and romantic slice of life between our characters, with us going through their daily lives as jedi. (Maybe we'll have them decide to leave the Order at some point and have them explore the galaxy together?). Additionally, we could change the plot slightly so we can keep more close to canon if that's something you would prefer.
Of course, this roleplay will have tons of erotic moments and scenes, but the romance will be a big part of it as well. And as you probably guessed, I will be playing as an OC. I can try to play as Lux if really necessary, but I don't really remember much from his short time on the show and I am much more comfortable playing as someone I have made.
But, if you are not interested in Ahsoka, but would still wish to do something similar with me, I do have some plot ideas for Rey, as well as Hera!
I am pretty vannila in terms of kinks, with some of my favourite being:creampies, pinning, hair pulling(in this case, mantrals), begging, choking etc.(I can send the full list if needed). As I said above, I would very much prefer if we could roleplay on discord, but it is not a necessity.
My timezone is GMT, for those interested. And of course, everyone that dms me about this needs be 18+

2023.03.30 17:31 MelasD Amelia: The Level Zero Hero Chapter 88
Synopsis:
Ten years ago, Amelia woke up alone and lost in a broken world where she had to fight for her survival.Read Chapter 1 Here
Now, after reaching the pinnacle of power, defeating the Void itself, and escaping the abyss, she has finally found her way back into the real world. But instead of finding herself on Earth, she is in the land of Vacuos. A fantasy world with magic, monsters, Classes, and Levels. A world that is governed by a System like it were a video game.
And when rewarded with a Class befitting her accomplishments— to become a powerful [Hero] that will forever dedicate her life to protecting this world that is not her own— she only has one response.
“Absolutely not. I’m going to live a normal life now, thank you very much.”
After all, who needs a Class when you're already the strongest anyways?
Garron sprinted out of the farm as soon as he heard the news. Wolfwater was under attack, and Noele was in danger. A kretus boar had appeared, tearing its way straight to the village. But it wasn’t just any ordinary kretus boar. Supposedly, it was a Void-touched kretus boar.
A [Druid] had warned him about this mutated monster— one that was apparently a friend of Noele’s family. He had been at Wolfwater with the blonde girl when the monster appeared. But he wasn’t strong enough to help her out, so he quickly returned to Nolan and Nicole to warn them and protect them.
But Garron was the Steel Tank. He was a B-ranked adventurer on the cusp of Level 50. While he wasn’t nearly as strong as Noele, he believed he would be able to help her out. So despite Dorien’s protests, he rushed to join her in battle. He carried his large shield, unsheathing his short sword as he whispered to himself.
“Wait for me,” he said as the ground shook from the explosions in the distance.
He saw the purple blasts. Garron had only seen the power of the Void twice before, and both times, it had been over the course of the last month. First in Whiteridge, then in Wolfwater. And now, it was in Wolfwater again.
The Steel Tank understood quite clearly that something was amiss, but he was too concerned for Noele to speculate on what could be the reason for their sudden appearances. Seeing Noele in combat against the Cloying Witch, he knew she could handle herself. But in the off chance that she couldn’t deal with the kretus boar alone—
And a powerful shockwave rippled out from Wolfwater. The nearby trees bent with the wind, half of the leaves flying off from the sheer force of the impact. Garron was knocked back, nearly stumbling off balance as a golden light flashed in the distance.
His eyes widened, and he looked up. A golden cross cut across the sky far from the village. It shone brightly, engulfing even the sun and dispersing the gathered white clouds overhead. Garron gaped for a moment at this explosion.
He recognized this magic. He saw the gold light. And he tried to work his jaw.
“That’s… Noele?”
—--
Noele watched as the golden cross dissipated from the sky. [Dance with Death] remained active, even as the battle came to an end. A charred chunk of flesh dropped from the sky, and her eyes narrowed. [Flash Step] carried her a hundred feet forward. She appeared right before a crater, eyeing the blackened remains of the kretus boar.
She frowned. The Noble Spellsword remembered the last two times she had fought a Void-blessed being. And each time, simply killing them once wasn’t enough to win. They always came back. So she waited warily as she raised her two blades.
The charred flesh of the kretus boar shifted. Her eyes narrowed, and her twin blades were coated with a golden aura once more. She readied a Glorious Noble Slash to finish the job, when the remains of the monster jerked.
Noele backed up as black appendages shot out with a crunch. But it didn’t get anywhere close to her. She blinked, watching as tiny little nubs poked out of the burnt remains of the kretus boar.
“What is going on?” She frowned, watching as the monster tried and failed to regenerate.
Its face began to reform, before distorting and melting away. For a split second, the Noble Spellsword feared that the charred kretus boar was going to twist into a rift just like when she had defeated Odell. But it only let out a weak groan.
She blinked. The dying monster’s began to shrivel up as it stared at her with a pair of flickering violet eyes. The light in its pupils dimmed into a weak crimson glow as it raised a weak limb, before flopping over to the side. Even still, it glared up at her as its body began to fade into ashes.
And she saw the anger in its eyes. The hatred it bore towards her. Noele bowed her head low. It had sought vengeance against her only because she had killed one of its kin. Noele thought of her sister for the briefest of moments.
But it wasn’t the same. The kretus boars were threatening passing travelers because their homes had been destroyed. And that was only because of the actions of the Miststorm Riders.
“I am sorry,” she whispered as the monster continued glaring up at her. “For what Odell has done to you, I can only apologize.”
The kretus boar beat its thin hooves against the ground one last time. And with a weak roar, the rest of its body turned to dust, fading away before her very eyes. Noele could only watch as the ash was scattered with the wind.
[You have defeated a kretus boar!]
The first notification flashed before her, but she didn’t react because she had anticipated it. However, the second one appeared, and she blinked.
[You have defeated a Void-blessed being!]
[You have leveled up! You are now Level 56!]
Noele stared at the hovering blue screens in shock. Firstly, she didn’t expect to level up from killing the kretus boar. Considering that she had leveled up very recently, and she hadn’t done much other than killing a few low-leveled monsters and defeating the Cloying Witch since then, she would have thought that her next level up would be a while from now. But she was already Level 56. And she even gained a brand new Skill.
[Skill Gained: Passive - Keen Battle Intuition!]
But the Noble Spellsword found herself more puzzled by the other blue screen. An individual notification from the World System announced she had defeated a Void-blessed being. When she had defeated a Cloying Witch, Noele hadn’t received such a message. Not only that, she had been under the impression that the kretus boar had been Void-touched.
“What is… Void-blessed?” she asked, her brows furrowed.
She didn’t get an answer. Instead, a panting voice called out to her as she raised her head.
“Noele!” a burly man yelled, dashing her way. “Are you alright? What happened? What… that’s…”
Noele watched as Garron the Steel Tank slowly came to a halt before her. He had his sword drawn and his shield raised, prepared for battle. But the battle was already over. And it seemed he could tell as much. He glanced down at the crater, before looking back at the blonde girl with a chuckle.
“A [Druid] told me that you were in trouble,” Garron said. “But it appears that my help is not needed at all.”
“Oh, that’s Dorien.” Noele blinked. She shook her head and waved a hand off dismissively. “He’s an old family friend— but how’s my parents? Are they safe?”
The Steel Tank nodded reassuringly. “They’re fine. They’re more worried about you… even if they have no reason to.”
Noele just smiled as Garron smirked at her. He sheathed his sword and folded his arms across his chest, looking back down at the ashen remains of the kretus boar. She lightly punched his side, taking a step back.
“Don’t pretend you weren’t just worrying over me a minute ago as well,” the Noble Spellsword said.
He harrumphed with a grin. “I was concerned. But now I realize I am just a fool. This is the third Void-touched creature you’ve killed, is it not?”
She didn’t give an immediate answer. Instead, she paused, remembering what the World System had called the kretus boar. It had been Void-blessed, not Void-touched. She wondered what was the difference between the two. Noele finally shrugged.
“I don’t know. I’m just glad to see that you actually do care about me.” She glanced away from the burly man, smiling, before looking back towards Wolfwater. “But we have quite a mess to clean up.”
Garron pursed his lips. He nodded grimly as he swept his gaze over his surroundings, taking in the full scene for the first time since he got here.
“Were there any casualties?” he asked.
“There were none. But the damage the boar caused is…” the blonde girl trailed off as she eyed the various craters dotting the landscape.
The nearby vegetation and flora had been uprooted, and the localized tremor caused by the kretus boar ripped open a few small crevices throughout the farmland. The damage was rather significant for the size of the village.
“And so soon after the Cloying Witch’s attack?” Noele sighed as she strode back towards Wolfwater. “This can’t keep happening.”
“It can’t,” Garron said, following after her. “We need to figure out a way to stop these attacks.”
She nodded as she eyed the crowd gathered in the distance. “Right… but for now, let’s check up on the restaurant…”
—--
“Amelia seemed pretty excited for her restaurant’s grand opening. I hope this attack does not ruin her plans for today.”
“I hope not. She might quit cooking altogether if that happens.”
“I do not know her as well as you do, but I think you should give your mentor a little more credit than that.”
“I am saying this because I know her—”
Guardian Angel Z357 watched the two humans slowly make their way back towards the ramshackle building at the edge of the village. A crowd of other humans waited there, and there was even an otherworlder amongst them. But his gaze was fixed only on a single figure.
Noele. That was her name, according to the human man. She had been the one to defeat the Void-blessed kretus boar— which was already an extraordinary feat for this era.
But that normally wasn’t enough to pique Guardian Angel Z357’s interest. It was the method in which she employed to win the battle which drew his attention towards her. She had been able to draw from a power beyond the World System. The magic which she used… it had reminded him of one of his own Techniques.
There was a slight difference to it which he couldn’t quite discern. There was no uniformity in her abilities. That puzzled him. And the fact that she had apparently defeated three Void-influenced beings so far drew him to her even more.
He needed to know more.
Guardian Angel Z357 knew that it was against his current objective, but he acted under his own prerogative, believing that there was more he could learn here by interrogating the blonde human instead of speaking to those useless cult members he’d encountered so far.
He deactivated Without a Trace as he descended upon the two humans. His sudden appearance out of thin air instantly attracted the attention of a handful of the nearby humans. They pointed and gasped at the angel as he approached his target.
Noele blinked, noticing the susurration, before turning around. Her eyes went round when she saw the twelve eyes staring back at her. At first, she tensed, reaching for her two blades. But then her gaze drifted to the feathery wings as her breath was caught in her throat.
“Is that… an angel…?” she asked softly.
Be not afraid, he transmitted his thoughts to the crowd of humans.
And the burly man froze. The onlookers dropped to their knees as Noele just looked on in both awe and wonder. Guardian Angel Z357 continued to slowly float down, before extending an unassuming hand.
Come with me, Noble Spellsword, he said telepathically. I am in need of an audience with you.
“An audience with me?” She blinked a few times. Her companion just gaped as those who watched buzzed in shock and excitement.
“An audience with an angel?”
“Is this real life?”
“Angel’s breath… I never thought I’d ever see one until I died…”
Guardian Angel Z357 landed right before the blonde human, taking a step forward as he kept his hand proffered. His twelve eyes blinked simultaneously, and she raised her own hand in a daze.
“I—” Noele started.
But she hesitated. For whatever reason, she shifted back uncomfortably, shrinking away from the angel. He tilted his head, puzzled by her odd behavior. Most of the denizens of Planet 16B would be beyond ecstatic to communicate with him. And yet, here she was, taken by apprehension from his presence alone.
Let us speak, Noble Spellsword, Guardian Angel Z357 pressed her as he called her by her Title. It is a matter of great importance.
She just chewed her lower lip hesitantly. His twelve eyes narrowed. No matter. It didn’t matter if she didn’t want to speak. He would make her talk by force if necessary. He reached for the blonde human as she blinked.
And a hand caught his outstretched palm.
Guardian Angel Z357’s twelve eyes flickered in surprise. His gaze snapped to the side, staring at a brown-haired human. He hadn’t even seen her coming, and she was somehow tightly clutching his arm in place
Who are you? he asked, taken aback by this sudden intruder.
He hadn’t even noticed her presence. And she didn’t seem to care that he was an angel either. She just stepped in front of the blonde human, blocking Guardian Angel Z357 from reaching his target.
“I’m Amelia,” she said simply. “Now tell me— what do you want with my apprentice?”

2023.03.30 17:30 Henshin2002 [M4A PLAYING F][Discord Preferred]:Celebrity doppelgangers
Everyone knows about celebrity doppelgangers, right? People who look incredibly similar to movie starts that you could call them their long lost twin. Well, what if one of these doppelgangers was in a romantic relationship? How does her life compare to her more famous "twin"? That's what I am hoping to achieve with this roleplay! For short, I am looking for anyone interested in playing as a girl who looks like a female celebrity, but is not her. I do have some ideas in mind, but I'd love to discuss background, names and other ideas you'd have for our doppelganger :). Also, as you've probably guessed, I do want this roleplay to be more on the romantic side.
The celebrities I'm interested in are: Zendaya, Daisy Ridley, Brec Bassinger, Paris Belrec, Emma Watson, Iman Vellani, Laura Harrier.
Some of my kinks include: creampies, pinning, hair pulling, brimmed/unshaved pussy, romance etc.
My timezone is GMT. If anyone is interested or has any question, please send me a message :).
(I am 18+ and all characters and participants must be 18+)

2023.03.30 17:24 Hefty_Tumbleweed8178 My Maladaptive Daydreaming
I still maladaptive daydream a lot.
It started around the same time as my depression, which i am slowly (emphisis on SLOWLY) overcoming. I do the run around my room thing. Mine isn't triggerd by music though. I mostly do it with tiktoks playing in the background.
Here's my maladaptive daydream plot i can't get out of right now.
At least my maladaptive daydreams are becoming less outragous. Most of the things in this current plot could come true. I could get a sweet boyfriend with good hair in the future, just not that one, lol. I could become a small influencer in the future, who knows. I am loosing weight, i could style my hair, i'm already asking for room decor for my birthday, so, at least it's a possible MD.
I just wish all of my maladaptive daydreams didn't revolve around a boyfriend. I'm only in middle school. I'm obviously not going to be in a steady relationship at my age. No boys are even mature enough at this age. I sometimes feel like my brain is too old for me. It wants me to have a boyfriend and everything while i'm only in 7th grade. I need to settle down.
I want to stop daydreaming all together. I'm greatful it's slowing down though. I hope as i finish my battle with depression, and my life improves little by little, i won't need a dream world anymore. I can only hope, though.
I hope I can update soon with positive news and get out of this daydream. Reality is just so hard to face when your brain chooses to ignore it.

Here's my maladaptive daydream plot i can't get out of right now.
- I have a boyfriend In the MD. He's a character from a movie, so obviously he doesn't exist. It's an actor who has already grown up, and the MD boyfriend is younger him. In the MD he's super sweet. He's a hockey player, and he has nice hair lol.
- In the MD I am also sort of an influencer? Not a really popular one but an influencer. I have a tiktok and a youtube in the MD, both verified. I post a lot of ditl's i guess. Vlogs. And vids about said boyfriend.
- I don't look too different in my MD. I just have a summer tan, i'm thinner, and my hair is styled really pretty.
- It's still my house. I'm not rich in the MD or anything. It's my same old house, just with decor in my room.

I want to say it’s early 2000 or 1999 but either edm or rock but all I can remember is it being a space setting inside a spaceship where the dude singer had the classic big baggy pants maybe white or blue and this super fake big plastic looking hair I think it was neon orange hair styled maybe even neon green with big spikes all over OR knobs. I know that’s a long shot but dang I can just see it in my head but can’t for the life of me think of the song. I just remember them looking super extra almost empire of the suns kind of out there with their hair and costumes.

2023.03.30 17:17 xStasko Professional League Of Legends Positional Coach /-/ 3 Years Coaching Masters-Challenger /-/ Coaching Pro Teams in Major Riot Tournaments /-/ Coach for LFL/NLC/Prime League/US Collegiate/GLL
I am Stasko, a professional League of Legends Coach and E-sports Positional Coach. Currently I am on a break from competitive but was previously the Positional Coach for Solary in LFL (the second highest circuit in EU below LEC). I have been coaching for 3 years and have had hundreds of sessions with players from all regions, ranging from Challenger to Bronze. I've worked with a wide range of people from LEC/LCS players to amateurs who want to compete in local tournaments. Reviews are available on my discord. I pride myself on providing instantaneous improvements and the ability to help you meet short term goals.
Verification: I think being able to support your claims is important as this sub does not do any verification. My lolpedia page has references to all my experience in major Riot tournaments. More at the end of the post.
Most importantly how is my coaching any different?
My coaching is tailored to every individual, all my plans are based on what you are good at and what you like. Almost all sports coaches pride themselves on the ability to spot a talent for something and cultivate it, and that's what I aim to do.
Furthermore, unlike most coaches I specialize in teaching. I don't spend 10 hours a day grinding soloq but instead I coach 10 hours per day. I've coached at least 3 hours per day for the last 3 years. This means that I have much more experience and diversity.
I pride myself on my creativity. I am able to create sessions, topics, builds and ideas for you to improve with that are specifically made for you and will have the highest impact on you.
Sessions: As I believe that my coaching is much more different and better I know people will want to work with me I offer cheap and affordable sessions with competitive prices that have stayed the same over the years. This allows me to maintain healthy relations with my students rather than overcharge them for unimpactful sessions.
Normal sessions cost 20 euros and are the same as my taster session. Including 24 hour access and ability to ask me anything. If you order normal sessions you will also get follow up talk with me about how your games have been going and how you can further adapt our session.
Group sessions cost 35 euros, you can bring a team or a group of 5 and I will coach you individually or as a team. In these sessions I aim to analyze every player and to provide very short and precise tips for instantly becoming a better player. The goal is for you all to exit being able to work better together but also as better individuals.
Climb Package (60 Euros) Example: 3 sessions + homework and tools to make you much better and allow you to climb in the new season. This is a customized plan that will involve identifying your short term mistakes and giving you the knowledge and tools to reach that peak you want in the new season. It also includes the normal sessions weekly opgg reviews and follow ups. Keep in mind: the climb package is just an example of affordable styles of teaching some students prefer and is aiming to provide the most in 3 sessions. If you prefer a more in depth and hands on approach you might aim for something more. As for results most students who have created their own climb package have increased a minimum of a division in the first few days of starting their learning and some have gone up full divisions in the 2 weeks of teaching.
Pricing: My pricing is strictly chosen to cover minimum working wage in my country and does not reflect the quality of the sessions. I have chosen to do this to allow me to coach full time at an affordable price therefore making a healthy relationship between me and students. While I could overcharge I do not find that to be ethical for either of us. However, you are welcome to leave tips.
If you are interested in free sessions I am a teacher for one of the largest league communities and will offer free coaching through there. However, there is a very long waiting list.
I am also happy to answer questions and do small 5 minute taster analysis sessions for free however these are handed at a discretion.
Verification (Cont): I am able to provide tons of reviews on my discord from legitimate customers, an official Wiki page created for High Tier competitive coaches, videos of previous teaching, proof of participation as Coach in Riot managed/sponsored tournaments. Past interviews and other content are also available. Most of this is available on my Lolpedia page with References.My Lolpedia Page: https://lol.fandom.com/wiki/Stasko

I had my barthaman but because I was talking about it, my parents gave me a buzz cut instead of skin bald(idk why but I prefer being skin bald than having this for some reason). Did anybody else get a buzz cut of just short hair during their barthaman?

2023.03.30 17:03 nochehalcon The rule of cool: the death of Theda Teafoot
This is the abridged tale of why the best story for one PC meant a one-hit-kill to the Yester Hill Tree Blight for 39d6 damage. Trigger warning: suicide (heroically?)
The Beginning:
When we rolled characters at campaign start, as DM, one of my players (CB) presented two dilemmas:
In time she would find her natural druidic spells were black and corrupted like the Swalich woods, and the trees all spoke like they were a singular presence. Later, her wild companion was revealed to be a reflavored needle blight using the spider stat block, a creature none of them had ever seen and found horrific in its own right.
The Winery:
What was described to them from the refugeed Martikovs matched her companions description, so she didn't reveal it, and once inside, having survived more than 54 blights and multiple druids who had corruption resembling her own, they encountered the druid with the staff. In a failed charisma save, she turned and eldritch blasted her own party. They tried to restrain her while attacking the Druid, and on his death she snapped out of it. While she was restrained, they checked his body and found no staff only to realize it had rematerialized in her hand. She refused to not keep it. In their final encounter with a vine blight, it bowed before her in the instant before it fled.
Yester Hill:
Here is where her story will end. They reach the effigy moments before Strahds arrival. They try to hide behind what turns out to be a berserkers grave and fail a stealth check even with pass without trace. It kicks off. Strahd fireballs them and then decides to make a Spawn out of the fighter, Sextus, who tried to hold person him. Most of the party fights for their lives and the life of their many times bitten fighter against 6 berserkers and the dark lord.
Not Theda. She sees the druids ritual in progress and rushes far away to engage them solo, managing to peel off a few from the ritual to engage her, but never all of them. Her and those druids all roll like crap, and wild shape let her tank against many druids at a time. Meanwhile, every round of the ritual, she keeps getting asked to make a charisma save and she does.. saving 8 times in a row.
This encounter lasts a table-record 6 hours, 2.5 sessions, and 14 rounds of combat. On round 4, Strahd gets nova'd by a paladin and has to retreat out of melee and guiding bolt range as he falls below 30hp. The fight refocuses on killing the overwhelming numbers of Berserkers and Beucephalus before Strahd returns rounds later regenerated, with greater invisibility, ready to finish turning the fighter.
Round 11:
The fighter has 1 out of 8 hp and has figured out Strahd intends to bite his max HP to zero and turn him. He offers info on Ireena in exchange for a normal death and when Strahd suggests he'll just ask him after he's enthralled, the fighter instead drinks a vial of acid to die. I rule this is an acceptable way to die without saving throws. And the party is stunned at the first PC death at my table in years.
Revenge is off the table as Strahd is back at full health, the other 3 PCs have a combined HP of 11 and their resources are drained. They begin to run all while Strahd goads them.
Then, 150ft away, Theda fails her charisma save and is forced to join the druidic ritual just as it climaxes. The druids stop attacking her briefly and the tree blight comes into existence.
Round 12:
Looking at the towering creature before her, Theda finds herself free again and begins to dash towards her surviving friends, pursued by the druids and tree blight. Strahd stands nearby entertained by their fear.
Round 13:
She knows she can't catch up to her friends and decides to draw aggro for a final round. She finishes off one druid that's pissed her off since the first round and is immediately jumped by the others, including being hit for two failed death saves. The tree blight then does something unexpected. It lifts up her body and places her inside of itself, sealing her in with its bark. Inside the tree, with a single death fail remaining, her unconsciousness finds out her patron is Gulthias and this is how it's meant to be because he has plans for her.
Round 14:
From 200 ft away, the party hears a loud BANG! Debris of splinters rain from the sky and pepper their leathered backs and pierce one of their ears.
Rewind: CB and I rolled that death save and worked out her final scene privately before telling the party, and I'll be damned 'nat20'. Theda awakes entombed within the darkness of the tree blight, save for the glowing green seed at its heart. She sees a knotting of tiny roots connecting the heart to the monster and she uses her last act to defy her patron and use his staff to break the roots and sever the connection.
The tree is killed instantly and the magic from the ritual erupts for 1d6 force for every turn a druid chanted. 120 damage and a luck roll determines everything within 50' becomes a pink, brown, and black mist; Strahd is bloodied, minionless, and has no reason to stay and every reason to leave. The survivors see him turn into a bat and fly back to the castle.
--------
Sextus and Theda are able to commune briefly in a pocket ethereal. They can see the madness-enducing edges of the domain of dread, the illusion of distance beyond the fog, and the traces of other trapped souls awaiting unholy infusion into a future husk they'll be born into. But until that happens, they can briefly consider their place in this non-afterlife.
--------
After a short rest and a few hours of searching, the survivors find the glowing green seed a few thousand feet away. Upon touching it, they feel a druidcraft of wind brush through their hair and fur, and two black flowers sprout thistled within.
Edit: Reddit broke some formatting I wanted to fix.

The Beginning:
When we rolled characters at campaign start, as DM, one of my players (CB) presented two dilemmas:
- She would miss the first session. So while every other character would start at L2 in Daggerford, she would start at L3 in the Svalich woods.
- She wanted to multiclass a L2 Halfling Emerald Enclave Moon druid, and asked me to choose for her. I told her she'd find out her other class and gift the night of the game.
In time she would find her natural druidic spells were black and corrupted like the Swalich woods, and the trees all spoke like they were a singular presence. Later, her wild companion was revealed to be a reflavored needle blight using the spider stat block, a creature none of them had ever seen and found horrific in its own right.

The survivors see him turn into a bat and fly back to the castle.
--------
Sextus and Theda are able to commune briefly in a pocket ethereal. They can see the madness-enducing edges of the domain of dread, the illusion of distance beyond the fog, and the traces of other trapped souls awaiting unholy infusion into a future husk they'll be born into. But until that happens, they can briefly consider their place in this non-afterlife.
--------
After a short rest and a few hours of searching, the survivors find the glowing green seed a few thousand feet away. Upon touching it, they feel a druidcraft of wind brush through their hair and fur, and two black flowers sprout thistled within.
Edit: Reddit broke some formatting I wanted to fix.
2023.03.30 17:02 StripeyTiger1 58 [M4F] #Midlands, England, UK - seeking younger for clean 😇 and/or dirty 😈 long term relationship
Some people like their dating to be clean and romantic, others like it dirty. Click on which you prefer (or both)
Messaging links are here
Clean Version
I'm looking for a young woman who would like a relationship involving having children. I want someone who would like children soon because I'm not getting any younger, but its fine if you use birth control until you make your mind up. As far as I'm concerned, if I'm having sex with you, you have my permission to get pregnant or not as you choose. You can live with me or visit often before and after conception. I'd like a long term relationship and ideally would like at least two children
Dirty Version
I'm a much older man looking for a young woman/women who will let me fill her juicy fertile pussy as often as possible with my cum with the aim of knocking you up. I want to do this as soon as possible, so please stop birth control and remove any implants if you have them, so that when my cock pumps my seed into you, I know that whilst I'm playing with your cum filled pussy after sex, there's a good chance rest of my seed is heading into your womb to impregnate you. After a pregnancy test shows positive, I want to enjoy my cock inside you and exploring your ripening body for the next 8 months or so as I feel your belly growing and your breasts swell, finally getting to share your full milky tits after you've pushed the baby out, whilst making love to you again to breed you again.
I realise what I'm looking for may be hard to find, so I won't be surprised to be reposting this in 6 months, but its enjoyable talking to people whilst looking. 😀
Unlike many on here, I'm not just looking to talk about doing this (although that's fun) I'm looking to meet up with someone and actually do it. Ideally you will be in the UK or a short plane journey away. Willing to talk to people further away but will be upfront and say the closer you are the more likely this will happen.
You:
I believe that in a relationship I should help you achieve your goal in life, whether it's a career or being a stay at home parent, but I'm there to be a partner, not baby you 24/7. Similarly, although I want someone younger, you're not my slave (except in fun roleplay!).
Sex
I believe in spontaneity so after agreeing to have sex the first time, you don't have to ask to start things next time, however "Stop" and "Not Right Now" are valid!
Also valid is "OMG, This team meeting is so much better with you playing with my cock!" 😈
I'm not a great believer in sexual extremes, but have no objection to fun. I will mainly be turned on by the fact that someone beautiful is happy to be with me.
Due to the prevalence of people who are just looking for fun {fine 👍} or fake 👎, I apologise to those who are seriously interested in that I will have to keep this post live until I am in a committed physical relationship with someone!

2023.03.30 17:00 ForestForgiveness I cut my hair short and bleached it blonde today.
I was raised on princesses. My favourite movie when I was little was The Swan Princess. I was obsessed with the idea of everlasting love, of someone who loved you so much they would do anything to save you. I aspired to be like Odette: strong, brave, loyal, and beautiful. I loved her long blonde hair, her grace, her femininity. I internalised the idea that in order to find my prince, my knight in shining armour, I needed that femininity and grace. Then I would find someone who would never let me go.
I recently broke up with my boyfriend of three years. During the stress of my honours year, he had to do a lot of looking after me. I think something shifted between us, and he saw me not as an equal, but more like a beloved pet that he had to care for. He stopped being interested in being intimate with me. For a long time I felt ugly. I am a signed model, I have done plenty of photoshoots, I have always been told I am beautiful. But in the eyes of my prince charming, I was no longer desirable. And no amount of compliments could make me feel otherwise. I became like a black hole, seeking validation everywhere, and never getting enough. Never enough.
I spent my whole life jumping from man to man, a remora attaching itself to a shark. I haven't been single for longer than three months since I was fourteen years old. I am twenty-six. I do not know who I am when it is just me. I am a stranger to myself. And I am so afraid of being alone.
I went to a men's salon because I didn't trust stylists at the women's salon to get the short cut right. My stylist didn't blink an eyelash when I told her I wanted to keep my hair, or when I asked if she might video the moment it was cut off. I thought of Mulan, going to war; I thought of Zuko and Iroh, leaving the Fire Nation. And when she brought out the clippers and began to buzz the back of my neck, I thought of Britney Spears: "I don't want anyone touching my hair. I'm sick of people touching my hair."
I felt so light in that moment. I smiled so hard I thought I would cry.
I have always desperately craved male validation and approval. Something something, daddy issues. And I am so afraid to be without a man to attach myself to. I was so afraid of losing the femininity that I have always striven to embody, in order to be appealing to men, in order to be a Disney princess, in order to find my prince charming.
In that moment, I chose to be my own prince charming. I chose to save myself.
When my stylist put the bleach in my hair, she covered it with cling wrap and tin foil. She joked that I would look a bit odd for a while. I told her, it's like a butterfly in a chrysalis. She said, or like someone trying to pick up signals from aliens.
The bleach began to sting, and then to burn. I tolerated it for as long as I could. I am used to pain: to remove my body hair, I use an epilator, which rips the hair out with spinning tweezers; just yesterday, I waxed my intimate parts, and barely winced at the agony. But this pain became unbearable. I envisioned my scalp bubbling as it fried under the heat of the bleach. But I endured. When she rinsed out the bleach, my scalp was blistered and oozing blood from the chemicals. I thought of the little mermaid, who so badly wanted feet, whose every step felt like walking on knives. I thought of the phrase, Beauty is Pain.
When I left the salon, I went to buy a shirt for graduation. The teller was this beautiful trans woman. She told me I looked amazing. I told her I was scared to go through such a change, that I've never had hair this short. She told me: rock it, girl. I glowed.
At the grocery store ten minutes later, an old woman told me she loved my hair. I thanked her, and I glowed.
At the bus stop, a man stopped me and asked if I was a model. I told him, yes. He said, "You look beautiful." I thanked him, and I glowed.
And when I look in the mirror now, I look more like myself than I ever have in my life.
I spent so long feeling ugly, and I was so afraid of change making me unloveable. But now, when I look at myself, I think, You look amazing. I thank myself. And I glow.

2023.03.30 16:58 Miserable_Flower_444 James Patterson’s writing style?
I’m currently reading Instinct and it seems his chapters are super sort…. Like I’m half way through the audio book and I’ve only put in 4 hrs into it and we’re already on chapter 65 out of 100….. is it normal that his chapters are SO short? It’s like every 5 minutes is a new chapter……
I’ve read a couple books of his from the Women’s Murder Club series but that was years ago so I don’t remember if the style was the same?
So is that normal for Patterson or is this a one off book (or book series?)
