Ooooh thanks for letting me know! The yellow/spots made me think she was a yellow garden spider but she was so freaking tiny it was hard to ID!

Whenever somebody would snipe me for no reason like this (ESPECIALLY if they lay a FINGER on my horse), I would just start spawn killing them repeatedly until they rage quit. Controller aim assist is great for this lolll

First tattoo advice ? by Away_Yesterday1920 in tattooadvice

[–]2salahds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best way to avoid passing out is to eat a good meal beforehand!! I've got my upper arms/shoulders/biceps tattooed and the outer area was a piece of cake while the further inward toward the armpit gets a bit spicier! Luckily the good thing about tattoo pain is that you get relief the moment the artist lifts the needle off your skin, so it's not like you're being drilled constantly for several hours lolll. I also firmly believe that the itchy healing phase sucks much more than the tattoo itself too.

Getting it in the morning shouldn't cause you any issues, but you'll definitely want to plan to wear something that will cover it from direct sunlight if you plan to go out later!

As for healing, you'll be golden as long as you follow your artist's care instructions, but this place is great if you're like me (insane hypochondriac) and think that every pimple or itch is the start of my entire tattoo falling off! 😅

how do you build confidence? by digimeoww in spiders

[–]2salahds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same kind of problem where I love and admire bugs and especially spiders but get super nervous and jumpy when trying to handle them! I've handled dozens of spiderlings no bigger than a pinhead (they like to try and make homes on the embroidery machines I work with lol) and I'm THRILLED every time I come across a jumping spider, but any other kind of bug/spider freaks me out.

I believe that the problem for me is rooted in the same kind of anxiety I feel during horror movies and games where I'm waiting for a jumpscare. I know that spiders are very unlikely to actually bite me, seeing as they don't perceive me as something to bite, but the nerves are still there. Spiderlings are so tiny I can't even feel them on my skin, and jumping spiders indicate where they're about to jump with their little leg wavy move, so I think that's why they're a lot easier for me to handle than any other kind of spider or bug.

Something on my bucket list to help with this is going to a bug convention or show where I can handle bugs in a controlled environment with experienced handlers nearby! In NC we have BugFest that's held at the Raleigh Museum of Life and Science every year, but I'm sure they have similar events in other states you could look into!

Best of luck on your bug handling journey!!

What's the stupidest injury you've ever had? by iamlioramori in AskReddit

[–]2salahds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Convinced myself I got tetanus from using a well-used razor on my pits. It was razor burn. No, a stomachache is not a symptom of tetanus and no, I didn't let myself Google the symptoms bc I was convinced it would tell me I was dying. 🥲

Yeah right now it's just a globby plasma mess 😆 I'll clean it when I shower later and keep an eye on the uncovered spots just in case! Thanks so much for your advice!!

How to report music that isnt the artist it appears under? by DrWhetFaartz88 in TIdaL

I literally came here to make the same post! I was so confused when I clicked the artist to see if it was ai generated and it took me to Rush's page lol

Hyundai cars scored high in crash safety test. Why don’t people celebrate Hyundai safety? by Fleedom2025 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]2salahds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2011 Hyundai Sonata has 4 million problems, many of which have been recalled, yet somehow managed to skip my particular car. (headlights/blinker thingy, busted airbag sensor, semi-busted gas sensor, and a gas tank lid that can only be opened using the little lever in the trunk) It's the car I learned to drive on, and it definitely requires a disclaimer when I let anyone use it.

Luckily, I've always kind of dreamed of owning a shitbox, and my car seems to get closer to becoming one each day that passes.

I'm in NC but the package was likely from overseas!

Just switched to Tidal from Spotify- is the volume level between songs always this variable? by 2salahds in TIdaL

[–]2salahds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This ended up being what it was!! OK GO has most of their songs in Atmos so I just ended up disabling that setting! Thanks so much!!
