I need some help. Someone I consider a good friend has been lying to me, not knowing that I already know, I also haven’t seen her a quite a while. She’s not making efforts to avoid me, but also not making efforts to see me. She claims she’s busy, but then I see her out on public Snapchats. Am I wasting my time calling this person a friend? Should I just drop her? My other much closer friends said I should.
Just going off the information you’ve given me, I don’t think snapchat is a reliable basis for anything due to it’s mobile nature. There are so many variables to consider that… c’mon you knew exactly what I was going to tell you before you came here.
Confront her about it. Asking me or your other friends what you should do is pointless until you’ve done that bare minimum. All the talk about her not making an effort to see you doesn’t mean squat while you continue to do the exact same thing.

Hahaha I find it funny how extremely anal you are to consistent story telling and writing you ate in a way yet you got into Star Wars via a Prequel most fanboys cry tears of blood over because they think it horrible
Phantom Menace is a 2-Star movie.
Every Star Wars movie is a 2-Star movie.

What would be an ideal home for you and Lizzy?
I don’t know about Lizzy, but I can live just about anywhere.
The only thing I NEED is a small room to make my office in. I like to work in a quiet place, alone. I don’t like having people around me when I work, it’s always been a pet peeve of mine. Especially when I’m working at a computer. I want my work space to be free of other people and free of excess noise.
Not sure why I have that compulsion, honestly. But it’s always been an issue for me growing up. I can’t work when there’s other people in the room.
This seems to conflict with what Lizzy said a few months ago after Peet’s video Glass of Water-You’re Wrong and that is okay.

It’s no secret why people are so quick to jump to anti-Imperial responses like that. Experience has taught me that, whenever someone even BRIEFLY defends Empires, they’re immediately swamped with a number of terrible accusations, racism being chief among them. “Oh, so you support what Europe did to Africa? You monster!” Remarks like that are so common that people are too scared to ever point out the good things that Empires have done.
If it looks like something that isn’t Democracy, idiots will immediately have spittle-induced rage over it and cite irrelevant history. Of course, when actually bad authoritarianism is on the rise, suddenly they switch to “Hey both sides guise, different ‘pinions amirite?”
Like I said in All Hail Dark Mother: Our cultural mythology is very much in love with the idea of Autocracy working out just fine for people.
Oh shut up Peet don’t you whine about irreverent history when you can’t even be bothered to stop whining about Josh and Ink Rose! Oh and look Peet still having it in her had that Communism can work.

In the time I’ve watched your videos it’s abundantly clear that you dislike the way the show staff uses starlight in the show. This leads me to my question is it in poor thought to have starlight be my favorite character based solely on what could have been done with her? I liked her initially and still love her interactions with Trixie but most times they use her it just seems not quite right
Potential is interesting to consider, but it should never be a measure of quality. If anything, all the potentially good things they could do with Starlight make her a worse character because Hasbro has consistently refused to do any of it.
For me the big problem with Starlight is the lack of consequences. She hasn’t learned anything and she keeps making the same mistakes over and over again, and is never punished for it. She often gets away with it on the basis that “everything worked out in the end, right?”
It’s like they made really big Newbie Dash.
People keep asking me why I keep complaining about Starlight, and the simple answer is that this is still a problem. Nothing about Starlight has changed, and so my opinion of her has not changed either.
You know Peet funny how you are whining about Starlight suffering from lack of consequences anything when Discord
still does very questionable things despite being a good guy even after he temporary joined Lord Tirek (might of
spelled his name wrong been a while since I saw the season four finale and Trixie being well Trixie. I guess no
consequences is a-okay when it comes to characters you like huh?

I’ve noticed a lot of vaguely ableist language coming from you at times. For someone who talks a lot about dropping problematic vocabulary, I have to ask: What gives?
Association mostly. A lot of ableist language has, at least in my environment, never been associated with the mentally ill or disabled. That was just never the case growing up.
For example: It’s pretty easy to never use the “R Word” because that was always associated with disabilities.
On the other hand, growing up there was always a clear difference between “Psychopath” “Psychotic” and “Psychosis” as far as terminology goes. And I mean that difference was so pronounced that the first time someone with a psychotic disorder referred to themselves as “psychotic” I was genuinely thrown off.
And I have NEVER heard someone with Psychosis referred to as a Psychopath. A Psychopath has always been people like the schoolyard bully, or Republican politicians. People being cruel for the sake of being cruel.
A similar difference existed between “Sociopath” and “Sociopathy.”
We never referred to people with severe mental illnesses as “crazy.” Crazy was a term that always referred to conspiracy theorists and other assorted facets of people holding delusions without mental illnesses. Likewise with “Stupid” or “Moron.” They were never used to refer to the disabled, they were always used to refer to people being willfully ignorant.
Honestly I was alarmed when I learned in my adulthood that these terms are used in other places to refer to the disabled or the mentally ill.
Because of this, shaking them from my vocabulary is like asking me to stop swearing. It’s become such a common linguistic habit that unless I am spending 100% of my time trying to avoid doing it, it just slips into everyday conversation. In fact, the years-long effort I’ve been putting in to purge this language from my vocabulary is what made me really consider the phenomenon of linguistic habits.
Oh look a jab at Republicans because Lily “don’t judge based off a few horrible people in a group other then groups I don’t like” Peet is being Peet again.
