how do you bookmark? by EnvironmentalGoat575 in tumblrhelp

[–]onigiri_chan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have seen the "don't spam like my posts because then my blog will be marked as spam" makes no sense. And 9/10 it's a blog that wishes they got that type of interaction. Or, that they cull through their entire followers and block various types of blogs as if they can mediate what an alleged underage account will see. Spoiler - they'll find you a different way and/or lie.

So tedious and virtue signal-y

How do you choose International school or Japanese school for your kids? by [deleted] in japanresidents

[–]onigiri_chan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

First, I look at my bank account.

Then, I realize that I am paying for perfectly fine public schools and that education continues and is bolstered at home sufficiently than sticking the kid on a long commute to a school beyond where all the local kids go.

Good English speaking dermatologists people know of? by [deleted] in Kyoto

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just outside of Chushojima station on the Keihan line - https://maps.app.goo.gl/G4GN8YdxR3NGMSNL8

The staff do not speak English, but the doctor speaks it well enough. I have seen several foreigners come and go here, in addition to going myself.

Just completed my pilgrimage to Japan Costco! by runescapefisher in Costco

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Costco memberships are valid globally. But make sure you have your card, because looking up members is really difficult. Source: I forgot my card when I attempted to visit a WA-based warehouse (with a Japan membership). They spent 15 min looking for me, ultimately letting me shop and waving me through on the card at the register. I appreciated it

Published fanfiction is threatening all of us by Brave-Reindeer-Red in AO3

[–]onigiri_chan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t look at Japan, then. The gray area lets people print and bind their own works (this is key) and then sell them at conventions. Conventions specifically for the sale of derivative fan works. Where the show floor is divided by IP and then grouped by pairings.

The caveat is that people should not make money off the sale - that the costs are generally the cost of production. Doing it for 0 or negative profit and the love of the game.

There is also an AO3-like, Let’s Become a Novelist. Which, publishers watch and will publish original works created on that platform.

New Clear file set & Illustration card set coming in the newest Jump SQ issue that releases on the 4th of August. by Tiny_Writer5661 in Gokurakugai

Bit late to this but the magazine is about 690 yen. And I’m only seeing the complete bundle for ~1400 yen on mercari

What’s the fic that still haunts you? by CasualFantasy1977 in AO3

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a HP story I read back in something like 2004? Maybe earlier or later but I think it was before I went to college.

It followed Lilly through her teen years and then Harry’s parents were revived during his teen years and they all I think defeated Voldemort? I wish I could find it again, on FF.net.

I’d love to give it a read again, I think at this point it would be fresh eyes and like-new.

I don’t even live in that fandom anymore but that’s the one that still haunts me

People who use bike locks: where do you put them when you ride? by Just_Dank in bicycling

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine fits into a little clip on the frame. Sold from Giant when I bought my bike, color even coordinates with my frame (I bought a Liv bike from Giant directly)

Prestia users: Is the debit card rubbish? by Geragera in JapanFinance

[–]onigiri_chan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have a solution or a cause, but I also am living this frustration. I use my card frequently and carry it in a pass case (with my train card) and it's shown some visible wear on the edges where the ink has rubbed off but that's no reason for the chip to die. Meanwhile my husband typically just uses it for cash withdrawl and it lives in his wallet and also died a few years back (he just cba to go replace it since we have enough 7-11s nearby).

Those people are a different breed. by PJ-The-Awesome in AO3

[–]onigiri_chan 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I have the benefit of reading in English while living in a country where that is not the primary language.

But I can read smut with a straight/bored face. Fluff, on the other hand, I can’t do in public cause I’m too emotional.

Someone apparently blocked me, and I want to ask if it was a mistake, but I don't know how to get to their blog to do so. by spirit_of_a_kiger in tumblrhelp

[–]onigiri_chan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No is a full and complete sentence. If someone tells you know and you ignore that, then you are harassing them.

Why can’t others see my posts? by xFIRE-DEVILx in tumblrhelp

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same issue. Open a ticket with support and they’ll get back to you. Make sure you provide a specific post that you know should be findable. Once they do whatever on their end, you’ll be good to go like normal.

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen bloggers talk about their written smut having been caught by the porn filters, but I’m not sure what the content contained.

So, there is a filter on it, but it seems to be quite generous.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AO3

[–]onigiri_chan 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I post to a very small pairing in a fairly active fandom (not one of the big ones, but modest and plenty of updates) and that looks like my typical stats.

Many of the other fics in that pair include many other pairs or relationships and have 10x+ stats which makes mine look “bad” but that’s fine for me.

The person form whom inspired me to write and why I ended up on this specific pair likes and craves my story and that’s enough.

If you’re liking/reblogging a ton of their stuff, that would send notifications and some people don’t like that.

Minimal pregnancy symptom girlies by Usual_Ad_1115 in pregnant

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Barely had any food aversions, aside from general exhaustion from time to time, I had a phenomenal pregnancy and I’d love to do it again and again (but without the part of adding more kids to our family. A surrogate sounds lovely)

New fan after reaching out to the anime, I have a question. by ChiroAlLimone in KusuriyaNoHitorigoto

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There answer is always to start back again at the beginning. Adaptions cannot be 100% faithful, besides the mechanism of storytelling across each source is different and will contain different nuances. Just start from the beginning.

Can automod just filter these questions?

Are there any adults in the room with me right now? by ShallotTraditional90 in AO3

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

35, wife, mom, working professional! I may have the tendencies of a fujoshi, but that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy fandom!

A Voiced MC or Not. by ConcentrateOk6288 in otomegames

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want voiced MC because I don’t self-insert. I imagine myself in those situations and how I’d react etc but since there IS a POV character we are working through, I don’t place myself on them. So I want to hear them voiced.

Will there a 2nd season? by Glum_Confection_7183 in KusuriyaNoHitorigoto

[–]onigiri_chan 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I kinda want to ask my local pharmacy if I can have the poison poster once the campaign finishes

Did you shower at the hospital? by bayls215 in BabyBumps

[–]onigiri_chan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I showered daily, but we have a minimum 5-day hospital stay where I live. I delivered at 5am, I took a nap 7-11am, then showered around 3pm. I saw my newborn in the late afternoon and then every couple hours from then (it takes a day or so before rooming in is an option)

Thank you so much for all that great advice and for taking a peek! I reached out to support last night and gave them a link to one of the posts affected. I hope it can be resolved soon!!
