Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Only people that have never played heals well say that.

A good healer? You aren't bottoming, you're the center of a team, keeping the pace and flow.

A bad healer, you're chasing around a step behind the flow, watching your team go down.

As a bottom, I assure you, most of the time I'm the one setting the pace

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 month ago

That is a very valid point :)

Oh my! :: blush ::

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 11 points 1 month ago

Either gimp supreme or power bottom

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

lol, it's like the most powerful role in a group.

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

That IS a fair point...

don't know what youre playing but in my exp healers are the babysitters to a bunch of monkeys who are looking for fun ways to die

I don't know what relationships you've seen but bottoms can absolutely be the caretakers.

eh only bad healers feel like that. when I play overwatch and a really good mercy is on my team she feels like a deity, not a bottom. omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent.

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

Power bottom

[–] troglodytis@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Um.. bottoms like bottoming. Healers like healing. Why should it not be said? Love your truth

Thank you, I feel seen

IME healers are competitive, uptight, and bossy. So if so, they’re definitely mega brats who can’t help topping from the bottom.

Edit: it’s me. I’m the asshole healer. Do you want to win or not?

Healers aren't tops or bottoms. They're overworked help desk employees.

I was in a Christian metal band called Power Bottom Healer. We mostly did covers of POD and Twisted Sister.

What is being a tank like for gamers?

[–] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 21 points 1 month ago

Bdsm sub.

They take the pain but are in control of the situation (if done correctly).

[–] PlzGivHugs@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

A soft top/sub top.

[–] FrostyCaveman@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Tanks, being de facto leaders, are tops. Inexperienced tanks are often insecure due to it being a high pressure role, which I guess makes them like soft boi tops or something. Experienced ones are either raging assholes or fatherly and wise. The latter is like a silver daddy I guess LOL

[–] Bobmighty@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

This is a meme for 12 year old boys who think the way they like to press buttons is somehow being the top. We're apes staring at a screen and smacking buttons for dopamine hits. No more, no less.

[–] 5715@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There was a sub about that, they had slutty anime healers

Healussy?

Oh so that's what a hussy is!?!?:-P

[–] Mango@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Bottom here.

I still prefer brawling.
