Anyone with you..? Try to light a candle or something and also go to the breaker (typically outside or in the garage) to troubleshoot there.

1: My dad and sister (came home to a pitch black house) 2: Dad has already checked the breaker box. It's an area wide 3: everyone has a flashlight

I like when the lights go out. The rest of my family especially my parents don’t lol.

I didn't mind it. Just gave me chills lol

Fair

Is your power back yet?

Yeah! Came back at about 11:20 PM. Thanks for the check in!

I do not recommend candles during an outage due to the risk of setting something on fire. My mom used them all the time but it always made me on edge because of that risk.

Where I live the power goes out all the time! In dry season its at least once every two weeks if not once a week.

Dang. That's wild!

Though less at the boarding school I'm at now…

yes yes lol (series is the correct plural)

insert grammar teacher AHEM. yes series stays the same plural.

Um…
Just going to put in that's just my go-to language in group chats lol. I had a conversation with a guy that I probably couldn't even tell you more than name, appearance, and vague personality consisting of nothing but gifs, half of them sarcastic.

Ah, yes. Gifs are my way of communicating, too. The platform we talk on doesn't permit them though...

sniffles

THIS TOO!!! That's hilarious!

I'm not a huge pride supporter but I still respect people's life decisions. Either way that's kinda funny lol

Omigods lol. That so funny.

That's*

lol that is hilarious why would someone go through all that effort 😆

I wish I knew! And I want to know who! It's such a random thing to do...

I swear it's not me. I had an argument with you about it so just want to clarify so I'm not on the suspect list…

I didn't suspect you. I don't think you're a petty person. We argued and then dropped it. Why would we respark the flames for no reason?

most likely just some rando who was on once and is most likely to never return

That's true, but I want to know lol

why

One thing, I don't know why

what..?

It doesn't even matter how hard you try

huh?

(Oh, it starts with one my bad) Keep that in mind

I am so confused lols.

me too @PokeMom244

I designed this rhyme

I TRIED SO HARD, AND GOT SO FAAARRRR BUT IN THE END, IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTERrER

Yeah, you got it…

ohhhhhhh sorry hades👉👈 it’s good, I just thought you were quoting something or something.

What did you think I was quoting?

I got it too 😉 but barely saw this. I'm singing right now. (RIP) I bought that CD when it first came out.... way back in the days... during college... By the way.... I've put my trust in you, pushed as far as i could go, for all this, there's only one thing you should know...

I didn’t know

We already know… Izzy

Ah, but that's just the nickname I go by! You don't know my real name!

Bum… bum… BUuUuUuUuUuUummmm!!!

I think I accidentally said my real name on here once. Its probably buried under a mountain of posts by now…
YOU'LL NEVER CATCH ME, FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLS!!!

Gods I remember you saying it I think... But I could be thinking of Jo so shrug

Meanwhile the all knowing google can easily be accessed by almost anyone lol. @Voltareon2012 I shall find your name just to prove you wrong, and then keep it to myself! MEAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAAH!

yeah.. it feels like this week is just draaaaaaaaaging..

we all go through that sometimes

yes yes all good. I forgiveses 👊

Thank you Deep bow

I had the same reaction to some of the things I said a long time ago somewhere else

I've said a lot somewhere else. That's the main reason I'm getting better. Two very supportive communities. It helps so much and I didn't expect that

We're here for each other, everybody. That's a good community, ideally. That's our forum (for the most part).

Exactly D. Exactly.

Very much so exactly

I get the same reaction when I read through my journal during bad times. Journaling is actually so powerful.

Yes it is very powerful. I do it evryday

Many times, friend, many times. (Especially when things are not ok.)

I get that feeling waaaaaay too many times.

Mhm. I get that feeling lots of times.

Way too common

No, not unexpected at all (no offense)

None taken

Hmmmmmm, I didn't know about the first (clingy), but territorial I knew and possibly possessive.... I consider some of that to be Dragon traits afterall (I'm the same way when it comes to certain things & people). If you are those things, then it's good that you can see it because then you can work to not take it to extreme levels. Acceptance of who you are is not an excuse either.... Don't use it as a crutch but aim for being beyond or rising above once you recognize the behavior patterns that may negatively affect your relationships with others. Hmmmmmm did that make sense? I'm sorry if that sounded rude, I'm just speaking from personal experience.

Oh, no, it's fine! I have pretty good control over it (just don't touch my blanket...). And it doesn't negatively impact my relationships in any way. It's just some traits I have that I just never realized. I don't think there's anything bad about it because I'm not excessive with it.

Ummmmmm.... Did I mention I'm the same way? Last night in my usual Unite time I was a tad late.... i came in to find my usual nighttime battle buddy in a match. Nothing wrong with that, afterall, I was late. So I waited, looking at things chatting with another friend. Finally said person was in-between rounds. I requested to join team ..... waited..... waited.....requested again.... waited waited minutes go by, and they were still in lobby. No response of a decline or via chat. ( I asked to join via chat too.). After 7 min i was about to just start my own match when finally I got an invite. Lobby was not full. Only two people, another chic avatar who I never played with so right away I invited our mutual friend I had been chatting with. I felt my territorial instincts read their head.... Right away I choose my lava spewing Typhlosion yet went through all the rituals ("I got your back!" etc). She took my path! 👿 with the friend I had been waiting for.... In my head I said "Oh yeah, It's ON! BRING IT . Game on!!!". So I went on to show them all what a pumped up Dragonfly/Typhlosion could do 😉. Me and other invited friend TORE IT UP big time. LAVA SPEWING EVERYEHERE!!!! Ha!......... Guess who ended up as MVP? Yup, me. I showed them what's up 😎

Typo! My instincts did not "read" they "reared" their head

I love smug D with an agenda, like let's go!

OH YEEEAAAAH!!! 😎 (I borrowed your sunglasses, hope you don't mind 😉. After all, yours just exude that... ummm.... vibe I needed to portray 😁. Or maybe it's all you ?)

I don't mind at all! Looks good on you! Gives the cool winner vibes!

Definitely Yes yes! (Thanks btw). I guess that was all an example of how I know I get territorial of my good friends. I'm sure the knew person was just fine. But.... I still had to show them what's up. Yes, females do it too, posturing isn't just a guy thing lol. Sooooo dince I knew how I was reacting, in lobby I was polite and nice and well, just me. Still has to remind them all why they want me on their team though through my gameplay....

Typo! New, not knew

Ugh, another typo: since not dince (it's too early lol)

That's the thing, I've never felt a need to assert dominance over people that are with my favorite people. I'm actually pretty chill about it and want you to have fun with everyone. But when the other people are gone I'm making up for all the attention I lost lol. So I guess I'm cool with it because I know I'm not gonna lose you to someone else.

I, at the root, probably have self-confidence issues. And yes, too many times ...... 😔..... yeah .... rejection isn't fun.... doubts about oneself creep in .... so I realize how and why I react, and usually I'll still feel it and yes do what I did vuya gameplay, however I'll still be friendly and nice and not clingy... If I'm not wanted I walk away. If there's more, I fight for it.

Weird typo... Lol .. via not vuya 🤭

That's a good way to think! Vuya... I don't know if that's a word but I'm using it now lol

🤭😁 vuya.... Oopsa! Lol.

It will hurt, maybe a whole lot, but there's one thing for sure— no matter how eternal the pain feels, no matter how tough life gets, it won't be forever. It gets better, even if you're not sure it will. Good luck.

And, someday, you'll forget how bad it hurt in the first place. I can guarantee that. No matter how long it takes.

Thanks UZ. You sound confident so I'll trust ya

I hope things get better and they probably will. Life has its ups and downs but the hole is not that deep and step by step you can climb out of it. I want to say more to hope to say the right things you need yet I fail to know the words to say.

No, that was actually perfect, @clasingla. Thank you. You're seriously very wise

😔 I'm here too. Standing with you, friend. 😔

Thanks D 🙂

I feel you

Journaling is extremely helpful for me. Helps me write down my thoughts and organize myself. You should try it!

I guess that's kinda what my writing is, huh?

ZIP ZAP WAK CRACK MIV MAC TIC TAK

I think I gained the confused status condition

I did too. And I'm the one that pressed the buttons!

Uhhhhhhhh..... Me three

Too true, too true.

OMG I HAVE!! I watched Mickey Mouse Clubhouse as a kid and I look back with so much nostalgia🥹

My shows are no longer available unless I hop onto Disney+ or have YouTube channels that have em for free. My taste in shows varies widely too and has evolved over the years.

Prime example is this one. It's native of France and was relatively low budget so it cut corners in a lot of areas(notably voice acting) but it's award winning and was one of the highest rated shows here in the USA. It's theme song is also insanely addictive. It's one of the few shows that has an OST(seriously). Also yes the heads are huge but that's beside the point. That Episode(along with its 2nd part that you can easily find on the channel), was effectively an origin story prior to Season 3. If you jumped into Episode 1(Season 1), you wouldn't know what the bleep is going on. At least this somewhat sets the foundation. Season 1 is very vanilla, while Season 2 is when things really kick off plot wise. Season 3 is really short but is also rare because the Antagonist actually "succeeds" and Season 4 is effectively the climax. There's technically a live action 5th season but I don't like it and don't consider it canon. All 95 Episodes(+2 Prequel Episodes) can be found on that YT channel. Ditto the shows's Original Soundtrack.

That is physically impossible for me.

Figure I'd add that the show I linked is roughly 25 years old so it's effectively a classic now like Avatar Last Airbender is. Speaking of Avatar, the new series that is a Legend of Korra sequel is set to come out on Paramount+ along with an Avatar Aang movie(that came out last month) that probably would have done really well in theaters had it done so. I don't have P+ so I'll never be able to watch it.

I really liked Ninjago as a kid and still kinda do

Ninjago is awesome. Still watch it, personally

Ahhhh…. That's a nice feeling. Did it the other day.. all I watched was peppa pig when I was a little kid lol(Also Im online for a little while.)

(going offline for a while)

(Mm. SAW YOUR COMMENT I BACK FOR A BIT BRO. If u online..

NOW YOUR OFFLINE DANG IT.. sigh

I'll be back at night I think. just so u know. and if I ever pop online be4 that I'll let u know.

If I had to pick a favorite episode from that series I linked above, it'd probably be Episode 42(plot of that Episode is nothing new but it's really funny). Episode 92 is an honorable mention. For something more recent, I have to call out Amphibia. That show is seriously underrated. I mean yeah Owl House isn't bad but Amphibia beats it for me.

So the show that made me think this was Liv and Maddie. I still love it but didn't actually watch any of it until recently. @sir_uledge Mickey Mouse Clunhouse was really good! A few more for me would be The Owl House and My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. Those never get old and I will love them forever

@Hades0918 IS IT A POSSIBILITY UR ON NOW?

Mmm. I'm sorryyy! I got offline like exactly when u came on...

I loved DBS and DBZ

Ooh, and Sofia the First and Elena of Avalor. Peak television right there

@Hades0918 if u online.. I am.

OH YES SOFIA THE FIRST. I ALSO WATCHED THAT SO MUCH. It was peak… I think they changed it or something…. but idk..

They made a new one… I haven't watched it cuz it's a different art style

Sofia is a brand new series. Not that I watch it but it's basically a continuation of the old one in a new setting/school. Speaking of old shows, the show I linked above is getting a 5th season 20+ years after the 4th that will effectively ignore/retcon the live action series that I don't like(deviated so much that it's hard to watch). No idea when it's set to air but I'd estimate 2027, maybe 2028 at the latest, although given the cost of animation and the format the show took on(3D CGI combined with traditional 2D) it's hard to say how long or how costly the show is going to be. Whether they'll have adequate voice acting is a big question mark because that was easily it's biggest flaw in the early seasons.

True, I’ve watched a few Looney Tunes cartoons a few days ago, and it was amazing! I felt like I was a kid again!

I feel the same..

Srry i can't make that make sense lol..

No reason to be sorry! Life is just life-ing right now lol

That's a completely normal feeling to have every now and then. Sometimes we just need a break from.. welp, let's just face it - humanity. I'm actually going through one of those phases rn too, it's why I've been chronically online the past few days.. Either way, I feel you bro. But, there's one distinction - don't take this feeling to the extreme. It's ok to take a break from society here & there, but don't just lock yourself up for months on end either.

It doesn't alert me if your comments here... That's some really wise words! The thing is I want away from everyone irl and want to be around everyone online more. So I want to be physically isolated but not digitally...
