Beth was around 10 when Diane died. It’s not known exactly when the Omega Device was used to erase Diane from existence, but she raised Beth through high school.

In Rick C137’s flashbacks, it’s shown that after his wife and daughter die from Prime’s bomb, Rick goes through a battle with grief and depression. When he manages to break through, he starts working on a portal gun. Immediately after, he uses it to travel to many different dimensions, worlds, and timelines. All with the same goal in mind: Find and kill Rick Prime.

From what we’ve been shown, he never goes to another universe to see another Diane. He travels and sees other Ricks and grandkids when they show up, but we never see him interact with a Diane besides his own.

The main thing that makes Rick C137 so different from other Ricks is that he’s sentimental. Even other Ricks acknowledge it-

“You’re a rogue Rick. Irrational, passionate. You love your grandkids.” “Because you love her!”

It’s first shown when he steals Morty Prime with the intention of using him as an advantage over Prime. Once he starts to care about him, he chooses Morty’s safety over finding Prime(Solaricks). Later in the episode, he finds all of his family in different dimensions that he’s essentially adopted as his own even the correct Jerry.

The reason that Rick never tried to find another Diane is because he’s always been the one Rick who truly doesn’t care that there’s an infinite number of his ‘family.’ He didn’t mean to get close to them, but he couldn’t help it. Deep down inside, there’s a heart that can’t help but love others. It just takes a lot for him to push through his defense mechanisms that tell him to push everyone away because they’ll just get hurt. It’s why one of the first signs that he’s truly healing is Rick caring about others quickly. Adopting that kids parents as his own. Trying to protect Tannenbaum.

Rick never tried to choose another Diane for the same reason that he never tried to make a clone of her. It’s the same reason why he kept Morty as safe as he could and would never try and make/take another. It wouldn’t be them. Which is why it’s so sad that Rick makes Morty feel replaceable.

Far worse, in my opinion, than the famous “he wouldn’t fucking say that” is “he WOULD fucking say that, as part of his facade, but you seem to think he would mean it genuinely”

Sorry we really went from free the nipple, take back the night, slut walks, and ending gender/sex segregation in sports being fucking milquetoast feminism 101 concepts to fucking girl dinner and "I just worry about fairness if we let trans girls play against cis ones" and "it was right of that woman to call the cops on a black man for existing near here in public during the day time because men are all violent monsters" and "radical feminism isn't transphobic we just need to kill all men including trans ones those oppressive traitors" and I will legit never be able to be normal about it. What the FUCK happened. I'd say I wonder what the feminists of my youth would say about this but I'm one and lemme tell ya I want to throw up. Go fucking read bell hooks or do something else useful please because all of this learned helplessness, gender essentialism, and transphobia dressed up as feminism is actively holding us back.

I think when you correctly identify a trauma that is the base of a woe of yours it should just disappear. It should be like "aaahh. you got me" and vanish and leave 100 dollars behind

the thing that bothers me with 7 deadly sin based characters is when they cant decide if they embody the sin by suffering from it or by drawing it out of others. ie. if your gluttony demon is a guy who loves eating then your lust demon should be a gooner sex pest. and if your lust demon is a seductive girlboss then your gluttony demon should be a 5 star chef. does this make sense.

The irony of this new breed of self-righteous AI hunters on AO3 is that they're all just copy and pasting peoples fics into AI detectors, which are all operated by AI and therefore THEY are feeding people's work into the algorithm without their consent and in some cases no doubt circumventing the locks people put on to avoid getting scraped...

Don't copy and paste anyone's AO3 work into third party websites, you're not the good guys in this situation?

the idea of a post-rescue who shauna who doesn’t marry jeff, who goes to brown and majors in lit, who becomes a writer and dissects her grief and trauma through her work, who still builds a shrine to jackie out of her life— not by taking on the life that jackie would’ve had, but by writing about her, is everything to me. every novel she writes has a charcater who dies too young, whose death transforms the people around them in a profound way. every poem she writes has an undercurrent of loss to it, with a million different metaphors for death that her readers will spend hours picking apart and analyzing; but not as many hours as shauna spends bent over her desk weaving jackie into her words, killing her again and again while simultaneously immortalizing her in her work as she tries to write her way out of the grief, the guilt, the shame. god we could’ve had it all

“We need more complex female characters”

Ppl couldn’t handle THEM

Kinda tired of people thinking of Emily (Stardew Valley) as a kookie “crystal girlie” as if there aren’t actual fairy/alien dudes running around doing major mechanical work for you if you give them the right treats. Not to mention the fact that applying gemstones either to yourself via rings or to your weapon at the forge does have proven, replicable results. There is a shadow man in the sewers and you can just move in with him, and that’s that. Dwarves and Elves are a known thing, and their artifacts are revered in museums. But we’re supposed to think it’s weird she believes in the power of dreams?? yeah right.
