A European consumer watchdog wants you to be able to buy exactly as much in-game currency as you need, not fixed chunks
  • Huh. Taxed on what basis? You buy it with your already income taxed money, and the company reports it as income which is then again taxed? It's like buying a gift voucher. Or maybe foreign currency, but usually you are only taxed on the gains once you sell them, but you can't sell in-game currency... What else would you like to tax? What would you even audit? Hey tax authority, I have 3 million gold coins, 2486 diamonds and 4 speed ups in clash of clans, do you want screenshots? Do I just send you 10% to your clan?

    In-game currency is annoying and bad, but I don't get what you want to do here.

  • Yes, but they would break because the cable frayed, and you would randomly get yanked when they got caught in something. Also, they were hellish to detangle.

    How do I alleviate bitterness due to lack of intimacy?
  • Well, it sounds like you're going after women out if your league because you think they're attractive and that's a valid choice. But it is a choice you're making. It sounds like you could have intimacy if you lowered your standards or increased you attractiveness (gym etc). Or you could abandon dating to not have to face rejections.

    So I think the key to avoid bitterness is to reevaluate if the choice you are making still works for you if it brings up bitterness. Then you can either stay with your choice or switch, if you don't think any other option brings less negative feelings.

    And if you choose the best option for you, there's no need for bitterness.

    Weird question from a weird guy
  • I have read that book, and while there are some truths to it, I just personally do not feel that way about this situation. And I don't need you to try to therapize me about this, like I said, you don't know me, you don't get to decide how I feel about something that happened to me. And you trying to give me permission to feel bad about it or whatever is honestly patronizing. Stop projecting your feelings about the situation on me.

    fucked up and you are ignorant to those effects, which are cognitively the same as torture

    I agree that a situation that traumatizes you does indeed feel that way, because I've been through other traumatizing experiences (not sexual) since, so I can confidently say that these situations feel nothing alike to me. I know what the effect of trauma feels like, and this wasn't it. I don't see him as anything more or less than an ex boyfriend. We had fun, he was respectful and helpful, and while I was not really emotionally invested in the relationship, it was fun ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ when I ended it, I feld kinda sad but not overwhelmingly so, just like any breakup since. When I see him today, which happens every few years or so, it's been a while since all this happened, we are friendly and warm towards each other, but we don't seek each other out, because after the years we have very little I'm common. I've never had any shame or bad feelings about the situation afterwards, and as we never hid anything about it (it was legal after all), I can talk very openly and freely about it. But honestly I rarely even think about it unless it comes up on conversation.

    I do not feel that way about the person or situation that traumatized me though. I am strict no contact with them, even the chance of seeing them used to put me in a state of terror, I can't make small talk with them or see them at parties. What they did to me gave me nightmares, feelings of shame and debilitating anxiety about the specific situation happening again. When I saw a car similar to theirs in the street, I couldn't leave the house for days. I'd avoid any place I knew they liked, even if they only mentioned it in passing. Despite a lot if therapy, I can seldom speak about this situation without a strong emotional reaction, which is why I can't go into detail about what it was here, just that it was neither sexual nor happened in a romantic relationship. The day I could be reasonably sure I never had to see this person again was the best day of my life. Yet this experience has greatly influenced how I think about myself and the world, and even after years, I think about it a lot.

    So what indication of me being "fucked up" by is there? Trauma response? Nope. Antipathy or feelings of being used? Nope. Longlasting effect on feelings and thoughts about the world? Nope.

    The same things can be experienced differently by different people.

    Weird question from a weird guy
  • I'm just talking about me here, so I guessed I'd be allowed to cavalier towards my own life experiences.

    I had sex at 14 (the legal age of consent where I live btw) for a lot less than 10 million dollars, usually just peer pressure and low self worth, which teen doesn't experience that. In retrospect, it doesn't stand out from the other things I did as a teenager in either a positive or negative thing. Out of all the shit that i did in my youth that I feel had a long lasting effect on me as an adult, this was not one of them. So yes, I'd have taken that deal.

    But, like I said, I'm just talking about my experience and how I probably would have felt about it at 14. Doesn't mean there's not still a hundred different ways this could go wrong. But 10 million dollars is probably a lot more useful than giving into peer pressure and low self esteem, so fuck I'd have taken it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
