Ok what the hell is happening

Video streaming has been completely garbage for months for me now

Everyone pretends to have the answer but they’re all wrong

I have premium, don’t use adblockers, cleared the cache, use primarily mobile, usually set my quality to 720 or 480, even close and reopen the app and none of it works

Every single day usually 2-3 times a day for about 30 minutes to an hour at a time YouTube will just decide not to load any videos at all, every other site will be fine my internet will be fine the homepage will load the description the comments everything and then it’ll buffer nonstop for a while and then go back to being fine

It’s incredibly frustrating but the only responses I’ve received from anyone have been smug “This is why YouTube is ass” esque comments - that is fine you can hold that opinion but I’m trying to get some help here and no one has been willing to

2 down 7 to go

I’m trying to play every Pokémon region - I’ve played most of them so I’m kind of going in a random order, and this time I’m doing remakes rather than originals

I’ll come back around to do the legends games and sequels and such once I’m done

I’ve now beaten Kalos and Unova so it’s on to Alola

(Hall of fame pic is cobbled together because I could NOT be assed to beat Alder lmao)

Now technically if you count the games I’ve beaten before I’ve beaten every region except Hoenn and Sinnoh (and I almost beat Hoenn but then ScVi came out and then I learned I was trans and it… yeah)

I need to share this gay ass dream I had last night

I was at a “middle class fancy” restaurant (think Olive Garden, Red Lobster, etc) with a girl (presumably my girlfriend), and I was planning to do a marriage proposal, I was incredibly nervous, and so I opened with

“So uh… there’s something I need to ask you”

And she was like “Me too but you first”

And so I went through the shpiel and she laughed at me and I got upset, and then she pulled out another ring cause she was gonna do it that night too

[OC] Currently mega hyperfixated on Pokémon and decided to draw myself with my favorites :3

I don’t post my art publicly much anymore because I find at best usually people don’t engage with it and at worst people are overly mean about it, but this sub is so friendly to art in general that I feel comfortable enough to try

This is killing me

I’m used to this in like songs from 30+ years ago but the gilligans island score????

Not even the theme song it’s the background music that plays while they’re dicking around 😭

Is there such a thing as a “Heel without the heel”?

I’m planning to cosplay Marina from Mischief Makers in a few years but a lot of the cosplays I’ve seen don’t even try with her feet (that’s fine obv but I want to go the extra mile)

The solution I’ve come up with is getting a heel that doesn’t have the part in the back but I have no idea if this kind of thing exists - a plan b would be to get a clear heel and paint most of it but I’m not sure if it would look the greatest

What is a reasonable point to start feeding max soup to my team in the story?

I have a couple Pokémon on my team plan capable of gigantamaxing (namely Inteleon, Hatterene, Toxtricity, and Coalossal/Centiskorch (I’m undecided on the last one))

I’d like to have them all actually be capable of doing so since when I originally played SwSh it was before the DLC so none of my mons were able to gmax, however I’m curious when a good time to diverge from the main story and do IoA is, at least up until you get max soup then I’ll probably wait to finish until postgame

I was thinking around the 5th badge or so - just over the halfway point

I know you can technically do it at any time because of level scaling but I want to find a nice spot for it to feel at least a bit natural to the story

Fun fact: Looking at every Pokémon ash has had, including ones he only had temporarily, with the sole exception of the Alola Ride Pokémon, he had exactly 100 Pokémon over the years

Girlies, tell me about your top 10 favorite Pokémon :3 (ascending order)

#10 - Froslass

One thing you’ll notice is that I am very fond of evolutions to older mons and Froslass is a good example, Snorunt and Glalie were both… fine…, but Froslass is incredibly cool, I love that they somehow managed to make a Pokémon wear a kimono and not have it seem awkward

#9 - Sinistea

I really don’t have a lot to say about this one, I’ve loved it from the moment it was revealed, I love tea, I love ghost types, put them together I’m gonna love that, idrk what else to add

#8 - Annihilape

When I heard via leaks that Primeape was getting an evo I didn’t really think much of it, the Dunsparce and Girafarig evos interested me much more, but 4 years removed (good lord) and Annihilape has really grown on me, taking the dex entries about Primeape getting so angry it dies and therefore having it turn into a ghost type is incredibly sick

#7 - Eelektross

Eelektross is one of the few Pokémon that have been in my top 10 since basically the beginning (aka once I started allowing myself to like non-gen 1 mons), its inspirations are awesome the fact it has no weaknesses is awesome it’s just all around cool, not much else to add

#6 - Gothitelle

I have barely anything to say about it she just is very slay girlboss I love her, they had no reason to make a mon that serves so much cunt and yet they did

#5 - Nihilego

Sun and Moon are to this day the only Pokémon games I’ve ever played spoiler free and Nihilego blew my fucking mind, Lusamine isn’t my favorite human character anymore but she’s still up there and I love its simplicity, the ultra beasts as a whole are really cool but UB-01 will forever be my favorite, it also has one of the best shinies in the game and it’s based on the phantom jellyfish which is probably like my 2nd or 3rd favorite non-cephalopod sea creature

#4 - Overqwil

It is the Alolan Exeggutor thing but cranked to the max and I *love* that, it has an awesome color scheme, and it being based on fugu adds a layer of black comedy to it I don’t think any other Pokémon really has

#3 - Gliscor

Tied with lickitung for the Pokémon that was my favorite for the longest amount of time, it literally has my color scheme, I love bats, scorpions are cool, idrk what else to say, it mainly just fell by the wayside because I didn’t have any personal attachment to it I just thought it was awesome and… yeah it is lmao

#2 - Mega Gardevoir

I am putting Mega but know both forms take this slot, I always thought Gardevoir was cool but it took accepting myself as a woman to truly come to appreciate her, I love her almost bridal demeanor, she is a beacon of femininity and as a very feminine person that naturally appeals to me, if I wasn’t broke I’d get the life size plush

#1 - Mismagius

(Disclaimer: Misdreavus is technically number 2 but I didn’t want the same line taking up 2 spots of the top 10)
Mismagius is the first Pokémon I have ever had a true attachment to, in a way she kind of symbols me accepting who I was as her becoming my favorite happened right around the time I started to properly cement my identity, I love how she can be cute she can be beautiful she can be evil she can be cool she can be mysterious she’s just all around amazing, also red and purple

Nothing to do all day, we wake up next to each other and just lay there cuddling, eventually need to get up to pee so I make breakfast, and then we just lay back down to eat, and just enjoy each other’s company, and then suddenly we’ve been awake for 6 hours and are both still eepy sleepy

Uggghhhhhhhhhh I’m so gay

It’s been happening for like 2 weeks now where once per day roughly it’ll just slow down to nothing and absolutely nothing will load, every single other thing will be fine and my connection will be normal it is just a YouTube thing

My haj is old (he’s adopted) and missing a bit of stuffing and what is there is really compressed and makes it feel like she’s got a bunch of stuffing balls in them rather than proper stuff

I’m going to need to wash and do surgery on him

u/travischickencoop — 16 days ago

To put it as politely as possible most Pokémon subs swing hard one way or the other and it’s hard to find a good balance

I want a place where I can just talk about random things with other fans that doesn’t get bogged down by so you hate waffles esque arguing

I mainly worry about it falling or being too big, it probably won’t be a daily thing but once in a while would be fun

u/travischickencoop — 17 days ago

Posting here because most autism subs are either shitpost subs or overly clinical 😭

Is it normal to feel overwhelmed when you have multiple concurrent fixations? :3

Also is it bad if I want my partner to at least have like 80-90% overlap with my commonly cycling fixations and not outright dislike any of them.. I worry that that might be too high of a standard 😔

ETA: Please read this thread before commenting I understood myself better in it
