Look, the government is against us, they expect us to survive at a pittance. That 20-30k isn't even quality education, the minimum wage in our country is outdated and used as an excuse to pin the blame of incompetence to us, for what the government is fking corrupt and useless for   reply

It's just poor writing. Market is oversaturated. There's a fk ton of garbage writing with a low entry access, to milk out the trope's worth.   reply

[is it really okay for a legal adult to read smut about minors?] Idk, do you focus on the fact that they're minors or young people when you read it? I think when it comes to being your inner thought/moral police, what part is morally incorrect is based on your values, discernment, judgement and perspective. Like why do you read it, what's the comp......   reply

Idk what you like so i'll go off with what i remember (goldfish brain) and what i'm currently reading: The Star-painting Genius (no cap obsessed with this one rn it's really good): https://woopread.com/series/the-star-painting-genius Chairman, Get in Line for a Fortune Reading: https://woopread.com/series/chairman-if-you-want-a-reading-get-in-li......   reply

Man i don't have the braincell for this rn but someone explained it very well-- woman or womanhood is a social role, not a fixed sex or identity. If i took your vagina, your uterus, your breasts at any point in time, are you still a woman? If i take your ability to make children, are you still a woman? If you wear shorts, cut your hair like a man, ......   1 reply

Hire a prostitute or one of those bf/gf services, talk, and start a beautiful friendship like some ghibli film. No sex/romance at all lol. Also go to the most desolate place like a desert and die alone without anyone knowing?   reply

No but now i want to lol   2 reply

I technically officially created my account at 2018, but I've been using this site since 2014. Back then it wasn't infested with ads without an account. As for why i didn't make an account, idk....stubborness? I was pretty lazy and annoyed at the thought of having to make an account again on some site haha. So i can't remember my first read here.   1 reply

Catholics don't turn away people for their gender identity??? Again, being gay is your identity. They don't actually turn you away for that. Their official stance on it is a no-no for the sexual intercourse part--so i guess the asexual/practicing ascetic gays are okay--but as people have said before it's an individual and personal relationship with......   reply

If not for this topic being raised I wouldn't even know there was a CP wipe lmao and I'm a frequent user too. Anyways about Harada and Nii-chan, I honestly don't hate them. I'll be the naysayer coz it's very lopsided to opposition here. I don't think Nii-chan is romanticised but it's not "realistic" either -- never a good depiction, material or ref......   reply

Ace , grey Aro here. Tbh i have a lot in "currently reading" (lists got wiped out so now that's all up to god to fish out again) but I don't have anything I'm looking forward to at the moment or I'm particularly following. What's notable recently is that I read Winning Shot, a baseball webtoon, so it triggered some revisiting and I reread some spor......   1 reply

Can't with people who make all the effort fr....i couldn't even be bothered to make an account for 4 years before the ads came in and the anon comment feature got removed   reply

Hmm to be honest, this is not about AITA or being wrong or right. I don't know your sister, I don't know you either. In truth, understanding her perspective or where she comes from doesn't even matter here--you don't have to understand her or make compromises because of this or that. It seems you're used to being the caregiver, to giving even when ......   1 reply

Properly communicate with your bf about your needs. If you feel neglected and disrespected that already says a lot about your boundaries being crossed. And please, watch how people behave, watch their actions. Watch how your bf reacts to YOUR needs. A lot of people have already said it here. Regardless of cheating or anything else   reply

Neither. I mean, people COULD do that with religion -- but the framing of the choice boxes or limits the nature and behavior as to why we turn to it. Broadly speaking religion is just one of the many ways people exercise an internal sense of faith and self-actualization   reply

I don't consider myself a red flag, but i probably have "red flag" things about me? People hate on avoidants, i lean towards that. I ghost on texts and stuff--it takes me a long time to reply. Depends on the reason; sometimes mentally not there, sometimes i'm not sure what to say, sometimes it's difficult. I could be a people pleaser / passive aggr......   reply

Whether korean / japanese isekai you're not gonna see model parenting or family dynamics in any of these countries lmao. Esp if it's korean, because in real life its the opposite -- daughters are like dirt compared to sons and they do all the effort to "earn" their place so in fantasy its flipped over. That's why "earning" or working hard for affec......   1 reply

BL was worse back in the day. Perhaps today everyone's got better art for it though. It's been there from the start haha.   reply

I don't really have a favorite; these are decent though https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/mienai_hito_tachi/ https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/lawless_kid/ https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sofa_bed_tour/ This one is weird its funny lmao https://www.mangago.me/read-manga/summer_fantasy/   reply

Since you said it will be very draining then yes don't dorm with her, it's an appropriate boundary to have if you can't manage your wellbeing being close to her. But i do think some level of consistent support or help is important. Idk about the specifics or severity here. She got the diagnosis recently and you have mentioned she gets plenty of sup......   reply
