Huh? Ill be honest, the sex of either character never crossed my mind. The comic doesnt even draw attention to it. I found it funny because his goal, and overall campaign mission, was to kill the orc but fumbled their way into marrying them instead. Its classic situational humor that comes out of role playing games.

Weve had a similar setup for nearly 10 years and its fricken great. We built a low spec computer using old parts from our desktops, hooked it up to our tv via hdmi, and plugged in a wireless keyboard with built in trackpad to act as the remote. We get all the same AD blocking and content access as a desktop because, you know, its a desktop but in the livingroom. My personal favorite is using a second account on discord to pull up streams on the tv from the couch while joining on my phone via my primary account for voice.

YTA , but I feel by mistake/misunderstanding, not intentionally. Cant stress enough that i dont think you were intentionally being a dick. We all do stuff that we think is kind hearted and funny, but turns out to be hurtful to someone else. It happens, but what matters is what you take from the situation afterwards and I feel this post alone shows that your self reflecting and desire to understand their side of the conflict better, so as a whole, NTA.

Personally, as a woman myself, that text would have made me feel objectified in the situation you described. I, again personally, would have felt hurt and upset that after a nice video call getting to know each other the moment that stuck in your mind the most was an accidental glance at my breasts and that it then lingered in your mind enough to text about it, especially early in a relationship where intimacy may not have been explored, yet. In that situation, i would have personally hoped details about me as a person, not my physical being, stuck with you first and foremost.

Parts of her physical being were shown that she didnt mean to, or wanted, to show. As a broad take with nuance, I feel that if someone sees/hears/learns something, accidental or not, that they clearly were not supposed to have known about, and that information violates someones sense of privacy and/or autonomy, then they need to treat that information as if they never had it in the first place. I feel it can almost be compared to HIPA policy in the U.S. where medical professionals legally cant discuss your medical details with others without your approval. I know my doctor has seen my bare body, but I trust that they wont share with others what theyve seen or discuss with me details about myself that dont align with the medical-based relationship i have with that doctor (i.e. saying he feels a lump in my breast vs my breast feels soft).

I have a love hate relationship with my husbands car because of this type of "feature". Love that its a 2012 with no online connectivity or tablet displays of any kind. Hate that i, as the passenger, cant connect a device via bluetooth or change other media related settings if its in drive, only while its in park. Youd think that "feature" would disable when it detects a passenger, but no, i guess the passenger is driving just as much as the driver themselves.
