What’s up with all the hate on James LaBrie’s voice?

I have many friends that are big fans of Dream Theater, but constantly shit on James Labrie’s voice. I haven’t been listening to DT for long, but I don’t see anything wrong with his voice. I actually quite like it. That being said, I am also a huge Megadeth fan, so take my opinion lightly.

I (17F) am in love with my boyfriend (16FTM) and best friend (16M) at the same time.

I have been with my boyfriend for 2 months, and I have been friends with my best friend for over a year. I have been strictly attracted to people born female for many months now, and don’t date cisgender men. My boyfriend is a trans man, and my best friend is a cis man. While I was being intimate with my boyfriend last week, I found myself thinking about my best friend. I went home very confused and distraught, because I have never thought of him that way and I am very in love with my boyfriend. My best friend came over a few days ago and we hung out alone in my room, and there seemed to be some tension between us. I wouldn’t call it sexual, but somewhat romantic?

I’m not sure what to do about all of this. I love my boyfriend alot. I don’t see myself ever dating my best friend in the future or doing anything sexual with him. I might just be confused and mixing up platonic and romantic feelings, but I’m really not sure. Do I talk to my boyfriend about it? Or my best friend? Or both? Or neither? I really don’t know what to do.

I don’t think Slayer belongs in the big 4.

Before you go off on me for the title, hear me out. I see Slayer as their own subgenre, and I don’t think they should be grouped in with Metallica, Megadeth and Anthrax. Although they are all thrash metal, I think Slayer has a very unique sound that is slightly heavier than other thrash metal bands and doesn’t quite fit into any genre, despite having all the qualities needed to be considered thrash. On that topic though, I think Metallica has gone soft over the years and can barely even be considered thrash anymore.

I hate what they did to Cassie’s storyline.

I just finished watching Season 7 after putting it off for months, and I was severely disappointed. I thought Effy’s storyline was decent, but I wish we got an explanation of what happened to Tony. I thought Cassie’s episodes were TERRIBLE. First of all, why was there no mention of her eating disorder? I’m not sure why they brought in that storyline just to ditch it completely and never bring it up again. Cassie working at her new job made sense to me, and I thought that part was okay. The part that I’m the most confused about is Jakob taking unconsensual pictures of her. Why did she not even care??? I know that Cassie has always been a bit of a bubblehead, but I would’ve liked to see some character development in Season 7. I was hoping she would’ve developed some more self respect over the years. Also, where did her dad come from? In the first 2 seasons, I can’t recall him being mentioned at all, so I thought it was weird that he was brought into Season 7. I wanted better for Cassie, and I was disappointed to see where she ended up.

Can I use bleach after Colour Oops?

I just used Colour Oops about 30 minutes ago, and it did just about nothing. I have never used it before so I’m not sure about the chemicals in it or the effects, but I would like to bleach my hair to remove the leftover colour. Is this possible or will my hair break off?

My boyfriend [16M] does not see me [17F] as his girlfriend.

My boyfriend just told me recently that he does not see me as his girlfriend. About a month ago, we confessed our feelings to each other and decided to pursue a relationship. He said at the start that he wanted to take it slow and see where it goes, but that he wanted to make it a relationship in the near future. Since then, we have been having sexual relations, going on dates and telling our friends and acquaintances that we are together, as well as posting pictures together. I naturally assumed that this meant that we were together, considering most of these things are what define a couple. We recently had a talk about our relationship and he said that he is not in a good enough mental state to be in a relationship, but that he likes what we have together and wants to keep doing it. I was very confused when he mentioned this, because I was under the impression that we were already in a relationship. I knew previously that he had mental health issues, but we had already also discussed that and he said that he wanted to be with me regardless. I’m very confused about all of this and it has been messing with my head and I feel very used. I understand his reasoning and I don’t want to lose what I have with him, but it has been affecting my own mental health since it was brought up.

Why is he under the impression that we are not together? What do I do about this?
