What is it called when someone takes any suggestion or the idea that it's okay to grow or get better at something as a personal attack that they're not good enough?

[(Anonymous)]

Me.

[(Anonymous)]

Would you rather have a celeb sl where your SLP didn't know anything about your celeb or where they were clearly a fan?

[(Anonymous)]

Either way, to be honest. I enjoy the fun differences.

[(Anonymous)]

Did anybody who was planning yesterday get a sl out of it? My only attempt got flaked on instantly so I want to live vicariously.

[(Anonymous)]

Give me an sl instead!

[(Anonymous)]

My slp said Elon is Jason Christ with money and power and I can't stop thinking about it given what I know.

[(Anonymous)]

I always enjoy a good Jason Christ story twenty years later.

I did something to my back and I can hardly move or breathe today. This is awful.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh no Anon, I know that situation too well. Have you had back issues before? Did you lift anything heavy today? Is it lower back, mid or near your neck?

[(Anonymous)]

Imagine the cognitive dissonance you must have to still proudly play Matty Healy.

For a few years I would talk constantly in a British accent around my friends because I was really good at it and then one day I realized it's more comfortable for my throat and voice when I talk like that I CANT EXPLAIN IT, and lately I've been catching myself randomly falling into that accent at work when talking to clients and I'm so annoyed that I picked this habit up. When I use my regular American accent in the same voice placement it sounds ridiculous and now I'm like did I just forget how to talk at all?

I'm finally accepting that my SL is dying and it makes me sad because I still love it so much.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm sorry anon. How long have you had this SL?

[(Anonymous)]

I really hate how much more attention I get when playing guys than girls. I don't even want to play guys anymore but playing a girl can feel so discouraging. Even when I make an effort to comment around to a lot of people I rarely get even half the effort in return.

[(Anonymous)]

As someone else who plays women and usually wants het I don't want someone who DNW to be writing their character as an SLP so I would encourage you to try another server.

[(Anonymous)]

I had someone very close to me die last year and I'm only just starting to understand the true meaning of "They live on inside you." It always seemed like a platitude before but lately I have truly felt them and the ways they changed me for the better so much. The memories really do keep on living if you let them.

[(Anonymous)]

If you work nights and don't go in til 11pm but wake up at 5pm, do you think it's wrong to wake and bake or have an adult beverage with your "breakfast"?

[(Anonymous)]

I wake and bake at 7/8am so...no. Do your thing anon.

[(Anonymous)]

What do you do if someone you have a line with at a comm consistently flakes on scenes with you? Do you just interact normally IC, give up altogether?

[(Anonymous)]

Are they the ones asking to start scenes or is it always you?

[(Anonymous)]

Anons, what albums make you happier?

[(Anonymous)]

Songs About Jane

[(Anonymous)]

I love to write platonic stuff with girls, but I have 0 interest in writing anything romantic with them.

[(Anonymous)]

What's stopping you from doing this?

[(Anonymous)]

I love being accused of something I didn’t do and the other person just resorts to getting mad at me and giving me the cold shoulder over it. Like bitch, if you don’t know what kind of person I am by now then that’s your problem.

[(Anonymous)]

Sounds like you'd be better off without them honestly

[(Anonymous)]

I wish I had the guts to tell my sister her acne is getting worse because she doesn't wash her skin after gluing her cap down and laying her edges with 37 different products then wearing it for nine weeks without taking it off.

[(Anonymous)]

Is your sister mean? Look for some glueless wigs and suggest them to her or at the very least try a wig grip and can wear them glueless.

[(Anonymous)]

This is going to be a rant and I usually try not to get involved in the rp gender wars, but the current state of trying to get a non-sol psl has left me so frustrated. It feels like so many people have blurred the line between sol and non-sol due to their obsession with romance. I enjoy specifically romantic non-sol sls too, but I also think so many people's fixation on romance has ruined the ability to look for any kind of non-sol psl because they've so heavily incorporated things that shouldn't apply to non-sol. It's at the point now where ijers are insisting the planet Zzorp in the year 3492 that's only populated by an alien race also has the social construct gender binary and human spectrum of sexuality so they're like "sorry I don't do femme/het, it's boring, I only want to play against a man because it's fresh to me" for a sl that was already planned that romance wouldn't be the main focus, maybe they would kiss once in 6 months, and I'm just over here like 🧍 because I simply do not understand how that's relevant to the action-filled world building-focused development-heavy genre sl I pitched, but ok I will icon a cishet earth man and change zero other details about my alien character so this sl between two aliens is now more fresh in your mind.

[(Anonymous)]

You have preferences, and other writers have preferences. No one should have to justify them. There's nothing wrong with playing girls or writing romance or only wanting het as the girl. Everyone in IJ would be happier if they stopped trying to guilt or bully people into doing what they want.

[(Anonymous)]

I have to have a colposcopy done this week and I know they're fairly routine but I am still so nervous about it.

[(Anonymous)]

Hey. If your SLP has flaked on a scene, it is perfectly okay to ask them if they want to continue with it or not. If they haven't even replied to the starter, chances are the notification have gotten eaten, or they are like me with mad ADHD and I need a gentle nudge to remember I asked for it.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm with you, anon. Sometimes I will forget about comments, and it's my ADHD, not my character.

[(Anonymous)]

I've seen discord servers use nb as a separate tag from m and f, and m and f includes trans men and women as they should.

[(Anonymous)]

I always include trans folks whenever I ask for slash or femme, but I hadn't considered it might be read otherwise.

[(Anonymous)]

All the people in my house went to bed. Time to rp.

[(Anonymous)]

RP with me.

[(Anonymous)]

I just want to write!

[(Anonymous)]

Well anons, I have an anal fistula that I need surgery on, which is fun.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm reporting anon mod to the fbi for unscreening this but not my comment.

[(Anonymous)]

I hate having such a super specific DW in terms of PBs and knowing the pairing in my mind is beautiful and has potential, but also knowing there's no way to guarantee the line will work out, because there's a lot of reasons that have nothing to do with the faces that a line could fail, and I feel like it will tarnish the pairing for me because I am the kind of person who can't build multiple personalities on a single PB.

[(Anonymous)]

Sounds like you need to write solo short stories, anon.

[(Anonymous)]

I quit RP like 3 years ago and sometimes I have FOMO about it. But every time I think I'll come back, I can't get motivated to even set up for a comm.

[(Anonymous)]

As someone who quit and came back a couple times, it gets worse every time because IJ RP the way we understand it is on a decline. RP as a whole has a lot of potential but it's not here.
