can’t go shopping over in the next city because gas prices are still high. can’t get a job because it requires you to have experience straight out the womb. can’t queue up valorant comp because my dog is eating my ethernet cable
can’t eat bread because it’ll make my mouth bleed. can’t eat vegetables because it’ll give me explosive diarrhea. can’t walk outside because the sky is on fire.

if you're a GIRL trying to get into league of legends
i'm going to save you 6 months of bad advice from your HARDSTUCK boyfriend
he's going to tell you to "learn the basics on a simple champion"
he's going to tell you to pick yuumi because "she's good for beginners"
he's WRONG
he's been telling you the WRONG THING because he subconsciously needs you to play the role he's already mentally assigned you
the polite supportive girlfriend champion
the champion that doesn't out damage him
i'm telling you the opposite
lock DARIUS top lane
lock RENGAR jungle
lock DRAVEN adc
lock YASUO mid
play whatever the FUCK you want
play the most violent ego driven CHAMPION YOU SEE
here's what your boyfriend won't tell you
every girl i've ever coached who hit diamond or higher did NOT start on enchanters
every single one of them started on a carry champion that let them DESTROY people from game 1
because the truth nobody in this community wants to admit is that the BEST way to learn this game is to learn how to KILL
not how to peel
not how to "play safe"
how to walk up to another human being and remove them from the lobby
that's the actual skill
your boyfriend is going to be threatened the first time you go 12/0 on darius top
he's going to start making excuses
"yeah but the enemy was bad"
"yeah but darius is broken"
let him cope
you found out what the game actually feels like before he did
and now you're never going back to playing soraka while he tells you "good job babe"
pick the champion that lets you HUNT
we are not raising another generation of GIRLS who play enchanters because some guy with 50% winrate said it was the "smart" choice
if you're new to league
play what you want
Study the Saskio way
“Hey babe, can we go to Walmart, Target, Costco, Sam’s Club, Lowe’s, Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, Ace Hardware, & Dick’s?”
“Sure honey, is there anything specific you are looking for?”
“No… just want to browse”
A new study suggests playing League of Legends may improve specific cognitive skills
The results showed that participants had improved attention, working memory, and executive function
On the other hand, commissioning an artist requires certain decorum as well.
Don't spam the artists DM's.
Don't get mad at them for working on other commissions before your deadline hasn't passed yet.
Don't make inappropriate jokes, or personal remarks.
Don't be rude, or insult their art, if you didn't like the first draft.
Don't use your connection to them to continuously try to befriend them if they haven't shown interest.
It's their livelihood, and you should treat them like any other worker in a professional environment. Don't abuse your position as the client.
