sigh back in my day, as long as you write decently and aren't obnoxious, you could join general chats and just blend in no problems
Now, all the newbies are huge fucking shitbags in literally every way, shape, and form and we can't trust any newcomers now

(Cheap? Excuse you.)
Have you never experimented with your keypad?? Like go onto the symbols section and click down on them until something pops up. It doesn’t do it for all of them but those that it works for will do it pretty much straight away

@Fraust

also I wanna be rude to my brother, also named Zach, because he's a controlling, condescending bitch who always finds a way to make me feel bad about myself
Like, he keeps insulting my animal crossing island and telling me to change things and it's like?? This is my fucking safe place and I will do with it what I please, back off
Or I'll mess up with something and he'll just laugh with that stupid tone and call me a retard
Or we'll be playing Mario Cart together and he'll do the same thing
He just feels the need to make me feel bad about everything and it makes me not want to play games around him ever??
He's so critical of everything and I'm sick of it

@RedTheLoveless

Can someone please tell me why I have been cleaning the kitchen since 3am?
Like honestly, why?

It needs the cleaning I guess?

Damn, he sucks. Kinda makes me want to go by my first name. I'm really sorry you have to deal with this though, Maddie.

No it doesn’t! That’s the thing!
I clean the kitchen every day and I’m only now stopping to think why I actually do it..

@Fraust

I just hate that he's always trying to control what I do
I shouldn't be getting so pissed off over animal crossing, but like
that's my safe space and he's insulting it
You know?
Like, I like how it is. Sure it isn't all fancy like his, but I don't have the patience for terraforming and stuff
Maybe I want to have flowers literally everywhere
Maybe I don't care that they're overgrown onto the paths
I like it looking more natural and that's my preference
He thinks that things are more fun if you like, 100% them or whatever, but I don't care about that shit
I wanna have my safe place and not worry about completing everything or spending hours making it look how he thinks it should look
That's not fun for me
And with Mario kart, I started doing time trials because I wanted to go on one particular track without worrying about items or cpus, but ended up quitting quickly because I couldn't turn on assisted steering, which I can't play without
And he kept making fun of me for quitting and saying that if I wanted to be good at the game, I had to practice without the assisted steering
And I kept trying to explain to him that it's not fun for me and I don't want to do it
Like, these things don't seem like they should upset me as much as they do, but again, I'm a super casual player who's just trying to have fun and him being there takes away my fun and, most importantly, my safe space
why am I crying

@Anemone eco

First off, it's okay to cry. It usually happens when feeling a really strong emotion.
And I'm sorry that you have to deal with him, but so long as you keep in mind that there's nothing wrong with your safe space or how you choose to play, it'll be alright. Just keep doin' it your way. My advice to you is to stop trying to explain it to him, since it seems to only result in frustration. If you don't give him attention or the reaction he wants, like most people, he'll probably stop doing it since he isn't getting what he wants anymore. It's alright to be upset for being made fun of, it's natural really, but don't let your feelings control you and try your best to keep your calm. He can't take away your safe space with his words. They're only opinions and your safe space is perfectly valid.

Don't know if this'll help, but I hope it does.

@Fraust

I really don't think he's doing it for attention, though
He does this thing where he's overly critical but he thinks he's helping
Like, he insults almost all the food my mother has made in some way
But he thinks it's constructive criticism I think?? Even though he's actually just being critical and rude?? And sometimes he thinks he's joking too but he says it so dryly it doesn't sound like a joke
I can't exactly just stop playing games around him since quarantine and stuff but like
I'm so tired of it
I just want to be able to feel safe and enjoy casually playing a casual game without him constantly making me feel bad about it

@RedTheLoveless

Ah. He's a nitpicker.
Honestly, if you can (not at this moment but at some point), just like tell him to chill his nips. I used to be a nitpicker, and the one thing that shut me up quicker than an elephant being given a peanut was when someone pointed out I was being nitpicky. If your brother is somewhat the same, it should have a similar effect.

Asshole siblings are rough. I would say to tell him that he's being a dick and stand up to him, but it sounds like he may take that in the complete opposite way that he should.

I would shun him and make sure that he knows that nothing he can say or do can hurt you. Dont give him that power over you

@Fraust

But even though I know he's an asshole, his opinion still means a lot to me for some reason and it really does hurt when he insults my art or anything else I care about
I can try to tell him to stop being a bitch the next time he does it, but honestly, he'll probably think I'm joking or he won't care
