Always. A: I want to know what the person has to say about themselves before I say hello. B: it is literally the bare minimum in vetting fake profiles. There are several around here with a pretty picture, but the About Me says "We are a new company of blah blah blah innovating in new methods of BS that has no business being on a dating site."

Do you even read a person's profile before sending a friend request?
kuharido
Ghost @kuharido I love reading profiles
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora That's relief. I've been getting some requests, but no one tries to introduce themselves, so I wonder how they even get the idea to send a request on a photo and a name and not anything else? Perhaps should put it a bit more clearly somehow. Like in my profile picture. x.x
kuharido
Ghost @kuharido Sadly some people just want to collect "friends" for boosting their numbers and such.
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora On here? Though maybe it's also what I see with those people on dating apps that swipe right on every single person trying to get a match? The need for validation can be scary. x.x
kuharido
Ghost @kuharido Not just on here in any online spaces.
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora It's either weird or we're the weird ones. It'll be fun rigging up a profile picture that evokes that sort of "the quickest way to irritate me is to not read and/or follow basic instructions". XD
kuharido
Ghost @kuharido They won't read that either sadly TwT. I try to make any of my profiles give basic info about me. Usually my interests as that's the best way to talk with me.
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora Yeah I added my interests and basic info, but mostly I had to lay it flat with people seeking immediate romance. It hasn't stopped anyone from trying, but I need to at least have that neat little "I told you so in the..." when they show their desperation too soon. You have to deal with those sorts, too? I remember right, you're not looking for dates right now.
kuharido
Ghost @kuharido It's not too common for me but I have ran into it. I'm someone who needs to build up a friendship before it turns into a relationship. Right now I'm not really looking I need to work on myself. If it happens organically I am okay with that but I don't want to push anything
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora Aye, likewise on both accounts. A close emotional bond is required, otherwise I cannot feel attraction. So people who expect immediate results will just be frustrated and I will chop their head off if they try to move me along at their desired pace. I'm glad you haven't dealt with it too much. You don't deal with creepers, do you? Those ones are the worst. Just on here, the results are truly scary.
kuharido
Ghost @kuharido thankfully no, I think my tough front scares them off. Unfortunately I think it's a bigger issue for women users. Which is really a shame.
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora I'm so glad you haven't had to deal with creepers. They really are scary enough to off put the entire process of meeting new people. Especially the coverts. They seem all fine, but you can tell something is beneath the surface. You want to think better of people so you ignore it. Then they show their real face soon as you catch them saying what they really think. Some of them genuinely do not see you as human... Like you're just a consumable product they want and if they save up enough raport, they can use it to purchase what they want from you. So I understand why some people will give up on dating after experiences like those. ;n;
kuharido
Ghost @kuharido They do sound very dehumanizing. I can be mean when I need to so I would scare them off. I'm a highly sensitive person so I usually pick up on bad intentions.
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora Likewise, I just experienced enough gaslighting as a child to make me ignore things out of fear of misjudgings. Even if I've yet to be wrong. And yeah, it's scary, disheartening, and can leave a person bitter and terrified. A lot of avoidant-dismissive behaviors stem from those sorts of encounters. Rebuilding the ability to trust and a willingness to 'chop the head off' is a delicate balance that is proving difficult to learn. What about you? Do you have any attachments styles you're aware of?
kuharido
Ghost @kuharido oh yeah, I do. I think have some level of attachment disorder. I'd be happy to talk about it more if you don't mind PM.
yuuzora
yuuzora @yuuzora Right? Makes sense. Bots, scammers, idiots, narcissists, etc. A profile can really filter a lot of that out. So it would make sense to read at least the first parts of one. But perhaps we're the outliers?

Feeling good tonight. Work was not too bad and I managed to get a really good photo of the moon tonight. I'll post it here later after some edits to polish it up.
squirrelatemycookie
Just realized I don't post many pics pf me here. I'll be getting a haircut later and will post one then. Good start to the week. Wishing everyone a good Monday!

I've not played it, but did think about checking it out some time ago since it was popular for a while.

Really looking forward to trying this game once I get a PS5. I dig this kind of music.

Playing stellar blade demo and this comes on https://youtu.be/Q3ZakaCqhe0?si=lgj4YYVn5ZXAoVtR https://i.pinimg.com/originals/77/f5/7f/77f57fc5d06dc6642b0d96ef200cb550.gif
hell_hound7
Panda-kun™ @hell_hound7 Definitely, not sure if this is ps5 exclusive but just based off the demo it seems pretty good. The game seems kinda hard to get used to at first. Like there is a perfect parry and perfect dodge system and then a follow up attack you can store to knock enemies off balance. It seems kinda like the nier games in terms of aesthetic. I preorded the deluxe edition so i will let you know how it goes.

Been replaying The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. Wanted to refresh myself before starting Tears of the Kingdom. This game is still so amazing and beautiful 7 years later. Easily still among the best open world games out there. ♡

One thing I found interesting during my time in Asia is seeing just how significant Dragons, or Long in Chinese. In the west there is a degree of stereotyping and orientalism with Asians and Dragons. But seeing this creature carved into so many stones, temples and everything in-between throughout so many ancient and modern constructs makes it clear what a sacred animal the Dragon is throughout the East. In Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Hong Kong, there are Dragons everywhere. And I am excluding the Lunar New Year displays I saw. I am just referring to local tales, temples, ancient art pieces, modern buildings, ect. Tales of dragons becoming islands to defend a nation's waters, being divine teachers and emperors descended from a dragon's bloodlines has been an educational experience. It is very clear why the Eastern Dragon has become one of the most recognized and powerful of mythological creatures.

The creatures look like Bulbasaur and Charmander getting fused with Zubats. I dig it. XD
