The Flood / I lost a lot of members tonight
« on: April 22, 2020, 04:56:24 AM »
Because I wouldn't ban someone, who said this:


The full logs are here. Beware - it's a wild ride. This took up all of my night, and all of my high. God forbid a chemical makes you better.

The Flood / The Giggle app verified me as a girl haha

A robot whose entire existence is to filter out girls from boys says I pass. What's next for good things happening to me?


Proof

It was because of me, right?

Chinatown is a dry film - devoid of both water and hope. It’s also a film that contains one of my favorite villains, ever. He doesn’t have any powers or abilities - he isn’t even a Joker-style manipulator of chaos with the ability to plan eight steps ahead. No, the antagonist of this film, Noah Cross, is such a fantastic villain because he’s real. He represents the true evildoers in our world: the people who care about nothing but what they can own and the magnitude of the mark they’ll leave after they're gone.

He rapes his own daughter to leave a mark on her, so she’ll never be able to forget him. He plunders all the water from his state to leave a mark on it, ensuring that future generations will remember that he was the man who did it. He doesn’t show any remorse for his actions, not even trying to justify them. He says that in the right time and at the right place, anyone would be capable of doing exactly what he did. He’s a textbook sociopath, caring only about his legacy. Even when our idealistic hero, Jake Gittes, points out that there’s nothing more on the planet that Cross could own and asks him in exasperation WHAT more he could possibly want, Cross grins and declares, β€œThe future, Mr. Gittes! The future.” It's worth noting that Cross intentionally misprounounces Gittes' name as "Gitts", another tactic to demean the man and show his ownership of the situation.

Noah Cross displays no empathy for his victims throughout the film. This is exemplified early on, when it’s revealed that he eats his fish dinner with the head still on the fish. The eyes looking up at its killer don’t seem to bother Cross as he takes a bite out of its flesh, and neither is he bothered by his β€œgranddaughter’s” screams of horror when abducting her, even though she just saw him murder her mother in cold blood. He’s still smiling and acting like he did nothing wrong.

Perhaps the worst part of this entire film is that Cross’ only protection, the only thing stopping him from being punished by his multitudes of unabashed cruelties, is the society that he himself is destroying. The law offers no recourse to Jake to stop this monster, and the best thing Jake can do to solve the problem, is to β€œforget it”.

You should all watch this film if you haven't yet. It's truly one of the best films ever shot and I give you my word that you'll be moved by it.

The Flood / Was there an attempt at disrupting order here?
« on: April 18, 2020, 06:39:02 AM »
I hope I'm missing out on some grand irony, because otherwise it literally makes you all look like a bunch of nine year olds who just found out that they can connect to the Internet on their DSi

The Flood / Can we clear all this up?
« on: April 17, 2020, 08:09:55 AM »
One last thread about me, then I'll go back to posting about AMC's The Walking Dead I promise.

But maybe I won't. That's the point of this thread. I am a longstanding member on both Sep7agon and Bungie, but that doesn't give me some kind of ticket to just be this annoying menace around here. As most of you know, I have vastly different sensibilities and opinions than most of this forum. I thought for a while that was the problem, my extreme liberalism and feminism, but then I realized that there are many other users who are just as extreme in their contrasting opinions without being quite as much of a pariah as me. Verbatim and IcyWind, both liberals, for example.

So without this OP becoming too long for people to reasonably read, I am requesting each one of you give a sincere, non-memey (or memey with actual advice in it) post that briefly details what exactly I'm doing wrong. I say "what exactly I'm doing wrong" because I'm not the best at reading between the lines and would like as much directness here as possible. In exchange for an honest piece of advice on how to become a less-despised poster here on this forum, I'll give you an "honest opinion of" post, because everyone seems to like that.

Thank you, and I look forward to your responses!

The Flood / My review of Scorcese's "The Irishman"
« on: April 05, 2020, 11:41:24 PM »
just kidding, that's super boring and if you clicked here wanting a review of some pretentious movie then I sincerely feel bad for you

really what this thread is about, is vanilla pepsi. What even is this?? What is this flavor? Is it trying to be a cream soda? No - too carbony. Is it trying to be an actual soda? No - way too creamy / candyish. So WHAT is going on here? Is this just a classic failed drink, like a New Coke situation? Or is there something more here? Am I missing something?

I'm not saying it's bad, I just want to know what happened.

129
Yeah. Take a look at what I did below: (I'll only use one spoiler, for easy access)



Spoiler

So it started off simple. The idea is, Aku took over my server lol. I even made my normal movie announcement in the style of Aku.

So for reference, normally my movie announcements are formatted like this:

But I did tonight's movie announcement in a different way:

And it was all nice - until it wasn't. And remember, I'm taking screenshots and I'm trying to make them as accurate as possible, but Discord isn't letting me change my name that often. While this happened, my name was οΌ‘οΌ«οΌ΅.

But yeah, people got upset.









So at this point, I started to use our server's feature where you can give someone the "Banished" role. The role sends them directly to the #prison channel, and that's all they can access. It's normally used for deciding what to do with troublemakers, and listen to their appeals and such, and decide whether to ban them or not. But Aku sent people who didn't give him his due respect to that channel instead. And yes, that may have been over the line. But I wanted to give Aku some actual power to make it in character (he referred to the prison as "The Pit of Hate") without actually banning/kicking people.








Anyway, one of my mods let them all out of #prison early, which I guess makes sense. I thought people were going to get into character and be like "O Mighty Aku we apologize, please let us remain on your land", but I guess people are very strict these days.

Anyway, here's what happened after they were released:









So yeah, I made her a mod for that lol.




BUT YEAH. So many people got so pent up. Here are my DMs with my ex-boyfriend on the subject:








But even that wasn't the end of it. No, we had to have a little fight about it afterwards too:











vvvvvvvvvvvNEW MESSAGESvvvvvvvvvvv

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^




So there you have it, that was my prank. I thought more people would appreciate it, but whatever. But here's what I want to know: Was I in the right, or in the wrong here? Please comment with your thoughts!

The Flood / Im staying up all night
« on: March 30, 2020, 11:46:08 PM »
Inland Empire fucked me up. I havent slept in 3 days. I wanted to beat Inland Empire and not be scared of it. But it's terriying. I have no more dxm. I asked to sleep with my mom and sister and brother in their special room. No. I cannot. I have to sleep alone. I want to sleep on their floor of their room. They say no. I say Im not sleeping alone they say you are. I say I will just pressure through the fourth night

dxm is what let me stay up those three nights but I have none. I need the light of the dawn. Thats when I can feel safe. The Dark Knight Rises was terrifying. I watched that too. Terrorists are evil and they will always win.

A note I wrote to them
Quote
There is no hope. Terrorists win. Everyone dies, and they suffer. No one cares. They laugh and they mock and they go into special rooms without me. There's no symbol of hope - that died a long time ago. That died a long time ago. I always thought these films were a realistic take on the idea of Batman. But there's nothing realistic at all - about a society that wants a hero - about a world where principles matter more than whims. There is no hope in America, Gotham, or anywhere. Batman was supposed to mean something, but he dies like everyone else. Movies aren't real - they're delusions. Themes arent real. Values arent real. Motifs arent real. All thats rwal is suffering - and chaos. chaos chaos chaos always. Theres nothing else left.

The Flood / Inland Empire
« on: March 30, 2020, 12:29:39 PM »
You're welcome. It comes with subtitles which are essential when they start speaking in foreign languages. Try to find a digital copy of this movie anywhere else - it's impossible.

The Flood / AMA I'm officially a vegetarian now
« on: March 22, 2020, 12:47:16 AM »
My little brother has been one for a while and I've always wanted to be one. It goes against my beliefs of antinatalism so much by furthering the suffering of sentient life. Anyway, I was going to do it for new years but couldn't so I said I'd do it after my birthday.

And to be clear, I'm a vegetarian for moral reasons, so if meat is already there and is going to be wasted, then yes in that case I'm kinda obligated to eat it, or else the animal died for nothing. I can still honor the animal the best I can. But I'll never actively seek out meat, because then new meat has to replace it.

133
they loved it by the end (my mom didnt watch - just me, my sister, her boyfriend, and my young brother)

my sister was obsessed with the first one when it came out lol but didnt want to watch this one but it was funny when she started getting so into it. Being with that terrible controlling boyfriend has changed her but whatever.

It was also nice to get free weed and nicotine and such. Anyway this post shouldn't be just about me - what was your best birthday?

The Flood / This virus is literally a non issue to me
« on: March 17, 2020, 12:26:36 PM »
I'm not going to get infected, and if I do I'll just kill myself. This virus won't get the upper hand on me. I have been exceptionally clean since the announcement of this thing to a pandemic came out. I am a cockroach, I will survive. I'm not scared of this and neither should you be.

The Flood / I changed my name back to SecondClass here
« on: March 17, 2020, 06:25:59 AM »
I did this for the benefit of the people who read through old posts. I want the SecondClass era to die on this site so I may as well embrace the name

What's up losers

YouTube


This is something that happened lol. The speech ends at 30:47, so you can skip there for the funny part where I give an update on my life.

141
How is everyone? I hope we're all making progress in our lives. I'm still hosting movies every night if you ever want to watch something cool. I'm of course back on DXM but it's doing wonders for me and I'm using it well. Things are looking up!

Please let me know any updates about you, too.

The Flood / This weekend is looking interesting
« on: January 13, 2020, 07:30:20 AM »
No work, just me. And by weekend - sorry, I actually mean my days off. Those days are Monday and Tuesday. I've really been having a hard time with TVC/Discord stuff. The fact that this is my important issue, is a luxury. I know. That's why I'm trying to stay on the path of good.

I'll use Sep7agon a lot in these coming days. It's nice to be able to take your time with your posts. You can reword things and such. I hope that this will be a positive weekend.

The Flood / I am SO loved and so blessed
« on: December 28, 2019, 06:20:12 AM »
I have a great job, great genetics, I'm cute, and I'm liked by the people around me. I have the world, so what can I do to further my adventures and bring the spirit of life to the rest of the it?

The Flood / Spoiler I actually love Negan now
« on: December 10, 2019, 11:21:50 AM »
Crazy how your perception of a character can change. Since he was spared by Rick and jailed, Negan has become such a cool, fascinating character. His personality is a lot better when he's not in power, when he's been humbled. He was annoying as an antagonist, but as a side character / protagonist I love him.


145
I've taken the criticism I've gotten IRL and on the Internet and have applied it. The result of my sobriety is more focus on things that matter, but also a much more jaded view of myself and others. I don't make friends with people as easily, and I can't see the best in everyone anymore.

If you don't like my personality or humor, there's not much I can do there. But to ban me from a Discord for my name when I'm trying to be a nice, reasonable person is just a little bit petty, I think. You can't hate me for the party line when I haven't done those things since I came to Florida. I've been excelling at my job, and actually got my first raise of my professional life last week. I've been taking it very seriously, but I guess I'll always be a bit stigmatized here. It's disheartening for sure, but I shouldn't complain. I've earned the distrust from my past, but despite what the cynics will say, people can change. I hope the perception of me can change too.

The Flood / I had a fucking adventure today -- Part III
« on: November 13, 2019, 09:34:35 PM »
I woke up feeling bright and refreshed. My mom had to go into Orlando for an EEG, that's a neuroscience thing to get more info on whatever's causing her brain to have seizures. I took a shower, had a light breakfast, and went into work. I recently moved to Florida, as some of you know, and I'm quickly proving myself at my new hotel job. So far, I've gotten nothing but compliments and assurances of my expertise at being a front desk agent, and I really want to keep that going. Being on drugs would do nothing but weigh me down.

I spent some time today reviewing my life through the countless threads I've made on this site. I don't like the person I've made myself out to be, and I while I believe I've changed, I understand if most of you aren't convinced. While a straight-edged life is boring, it's fruitful and it's exactly what my family and myself need right now. I can't afford another slip. I can't afford anything less than perfection right now. I only make $10 an hour, my mom doesn't work, and our rent is $900 a month.

We escaped my abusive stepfather, but now we're facing reality. I don't have a lot of hormones left, and while yes, I'd like to continue my transition, any goals of passing as a girl are out the window for me. I don't have enough money for drugs, and my new mindset refuses to let me break any laws in search of a brief escape from sobriety. I'm a bad person, one of the worst I know. I'm not pretending to be altruistic, but at the same time it hurts me to see my mom and brother suffer. I kind of hate their personalities, same as I hate mine. But there's nothing left to do.

The adventure I had today was just accepting all of this. For the next long while, I won't be happy or even entertained, but I need to keep up the facade of happiness so I can be liked. No one likes a negative jerk. The point of this thread is just to get this down. My mission: to use the gifts granted to me - my natural amicability, my physical health, and my experience - to provide for myself and my family, until I'm not needed anymore. Maybe then, I'll find a place to rest my spirit.
