#needing advice

yep.Bearnuts.

In my defense the artstyle reeled me in

Idk how to mentally process an intense hyperfixation that came so fast, any advice?

What was initially going to be a 5 minute a day read...became a singular 15 hour long read...I'm so tired send help 💔💔💔

Don't panic, I took the occasional break! And slept a bit (at least I hope...)

I guess this is what happens when you read a comic with an intriguing artstyle after drinking far too much caffiene

How many years has it been since I hyperfixated on a comic again???2 years? 3 years?4?5?No clue. (More presumably between 3-6)

If anyone's curious about this series, let me give two quick summaries, based off my interpretation:

Basically a combination of South park,Superjail,Care bears, and Ren and stimpy. Maybe a tiny (and I mean tiny) hint of Steven universe???

A bunch of bears who's entire personalities revolve around their past traumas.Not all of the bears've had their backstories revealed despite the webcomic literally being 16 years old...but I guess patience is key! They all live in a discount zoo together and its quite a hellhole.

(Put coloured text so it didn't look like the two bullet points were mashing together, you're welcome!!! :33)

My review of the comic:

Haven't decided on a rating yet, but I'd say somewhere between 7-9 out of 10. Bearnuts has A LOT...A WHOLE LOT of questionable humor. Don't even get me started on the questionable scenes. Despite that though? It was easy to cherry pick the good (or, at the very least, entertaining) scenes and learn to tune out the weird bits.

Overall, it's quite an interesting series. Unique character designs,character development,a gay slowburn relationship between two characters you'd never think would want to be together if you read the first quarter of the series,lots of chapters, lore, continuity, 900+ pages, lots of stuff!!!

Who's my favourite character??? Probably Gimp, Death or Crack. If I had to choose one I'd say Gimp.

"Why Gimp of all characters?Doesn't he have a questionable character design?!" To put it simple, he's just a chill guy who helps his friends with various southpark-ish situations... and happens to wear that. That's how he is for the majority of the comic. No kinky stuff happens with him at all. Maybe the occasional reference or small implication, but nothing worse than that.

He doesn't show up much compared to the rest of the characters, but when he does, he's often seen bonding with nature, doing first aid , and putting up with whatever chaos is going on at any given moment when he makes an appearance in a chapter.

If you wanna know why he wears it, read this. (Tw:Depictions of animal abuse+parent loss+sexual references)

Is this a bad hyperfixation to have? Should I stop? I'm quite unsure...Advice is appreciated <333

I’ve been in a few(3) relationships but they don’t seem to work out well mainly because of my own lack of participation, I’ve always said yes to each person to give it a try since I’d never actually know what I’d like unless I try but I never seem to like the person in a romantic way, I always like them as a friend but never as a romantic other and I feel nothing past friends for them, I’m unsure if I’ve simply not met the right person yet or if I generally don’t feel romantic feelings for others but all of my relationships have never lasted long, only a few months and I’ve even felt disgusted by certain things they’ve done with previous partners or told me that they liked to be called or treated like. I generally can’t get past it whether or not I should keep trying and keep figuring out with I feel in these relationships or try to decide something right now and I’m really unsure because I don’t know if there’s something wrong with me or if it’s just not the right person.

I know I’ve not been in many relationships but I’ve always just felt the same way in each one, whether it’s sending me pictures, calling them pet names or being flirty, I just feel none of that and most of the time, I feel weirded out by these things even if they’re considered normal or not.

-I’m also trans, I don’t know if it’s worth mentioning or not but it has impacted how I feel about relationships and in them and I’m just really unsure about so many things

He's been feeling rather understimmulated and has been talking about doing things like making us start rapid switching or putting us in unpleasant situations just because he's bored. (For context, he's also a front gatekeeper, so is able to control which one of us is in front. He's he only one with this ability, so if he does this, no one can really do anything to stop or interrupt it.)

We'd like to help him but aren't quite sure how. He's fairly recently formed so doesn't really have much in the way of identity or personal hobbies or anything.

We're just searching for another outlet for him
