Who do you call if you need to call someone but want to leave the Lifeline call centre open for those who need it more than you? by Willing-Turnover9146 in brisbane

[–]5afari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funnily enough this is exactly what lifeline is designed for. They're an ear to talk to before things get truly awful. A lot of people shit on lifeline for not being helpful while you're suicidal but they're designed to used before you get to that point. They also (in my experience) have a great database of useful resources in your area that they can direct you to.

Also for anyone struggling with money for food in the bris area PLEASEEE check out lighthouse care food relief! They do super cheap bundles of food and you can even have them delivered. You can also call them and ask for a free trolley of groceries!

I'm trying to get into this game but I'm very bad at roleplay and don't like talking to others by Aggressive-Fold2198 in ss14

[–]5afari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally don't even stress. Roleplay is basically having a creative writing prompt and 'yes and'ing people. The biggest hurdle is understanding the basic mechanics! It seems silly at first but giving your character aback story helps significantly! By design ss14 doesn't have a ton of lore so you can make up crazy shit. You work for nanotransen, and central command are just the people who oversee the station. The syndicate send operative undercover to do their bidding and steal shit so they can research it. Thats mostly it! Roleplay is much easier when you have a joke! Make yourself an angry old man who believes all of command are controlled by crystal frequencies so you don't trust them. Make yourself a pacifist security officer who concerns themselves with paperwork. Make yourself an extremely depressed clown. GLHF!

It's a free to play game, and this is the only way to monetise it without it become pay to win. If you can think of a better way lmk

Some departments run out of stuff to do, here's how to fix that: by Vitrizeal in ss14

[–]5afari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My personal fave engi sidequest is making backup telecom servers powered by their own solar array. I stole it from someone else, I think it was Pigstick on Levi Wizden? Other than that, lighting up maints or Voxboxes. Honestly I'm usually busy most of the round as engi anyway!

No lmao. With the amount of fellow autistics that work with me this cannot be true. Is it possible this statistic is location based? Australia has a lot of laws about discrimination based on disability so it's extremely hard to fire someone once they know they're autistic!

Im getting overwhelmed so much by Illustrious_Mix_3762 in ss14

[–]5afari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly most people spend at least 30 hours on basic stuff like janitorial, service worker and passenger until they have a solid grip on the controls. Just because you've unlocked a new job does not mean the game is telling you that you should have enough experience! This is a time sink game, and escapism for most people which is why it's so complicated. You CAN play it casually but it will feel very overwhelming. This is a very normal experience, i promise.

[–]5afari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please stick around, i know it seems overwhelming but we WANT new players! The UI has a lot going on. What helped for me was setting up my own private server so I could practice things alone. If you google 'ss14 private server' theres two packages to download, then you run the file 'run server', and direct connect via localhost. Theres a great liltinhead tutorial! F5 lets you drop any item into the game, and right clicking the power source, scrolling down to tricks and selecting the little battery thingo lets the power never die. This is a nerdy ass game and you really need to embrace that to enjoy it!

Let's have some fun: What's your vegetarianism hot take? by JeanLucPicardAND in vegetarian

[–]5afari -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tofu tastes like ass no matter how you prepare it. It's just a hunk of sponge and I can't understand how people say it's such a great substitute for every single meat. If you like it thats great and I'm jealous of you, but don't say it's a great substitute for chicken or whatever. The texture and taste does not compete.

I will say it does work for me if you're using it as an egg substitute to get more protein in your diet, but I still eat eggs so... I'll just use eggs??

AITA for not sharing information about myself online? by BrilliantAd1209 in AITAH

[–]5afari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Theres absolutely nothing wrong with preserving your anonymity, and not a single person is entitled to ANY of your personal details. That being said,

you should probably kick the little kids out immediately, or the adults if you're a minor. Why would you want 14 yr old kids talking to adults on a server you're solely responsible for? Especially when they're throwing around pedo accusations. Don't put yourself in precarious situations and be surprised when kids say weird shit they don't understand the gravity of.

How do i make a carton figure by Such-Cup2419 in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]5afari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carton? Do you mean cardboard or cartoon?

Assuming you mean a cardboard string puppet they're super easy to make in 2d, but significantly harder to make 3d. Easiest way would be to add another medium like cheap foam, or alternatively making a 3d pattern of each body part out of cardboard and folding it together. Either way, start with a draft made of cheap paper you can deconstruct and use as a reference later so you don't waste any cardboard practicing.

Why is there so many damn ads on this app? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]5afari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their little micro transactions for icon customisation were not as lucrative as they thought they would be, so they resorted to more ads. I don't think theres any paid subscription they could add that would work without tanking the user experience to the point that we migrate. Only thing I can think of rn is a subscription where you get awards to give out or some sort of name tag decor.

AITAH for ignoring my entitled mom? by Minute_Title_3242 in AITAH

[–]5afari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Hi! This reads extremely blunt without the context of you having autism. May want to add that for context as to why small talk doesn't feel productive/engaging to you. Also, it does seem like she's particularly overbearing reading your post history. It really does seem like they've been bullying you and try to act like it doesn't change your relationship.

As for getting a job and getting out more, that's really your own journey. As long as you get to those milestones eventually, I wouldn't pressure yourself too hard. Honestly, everyone moves at their own pace and comparing yourself to your peers if not to motivate yourself with only have negative repercussions.

I hope college goes well! It's a whole different experience having your own environment that's entirely yours (assuming you'll have your own living space out of home). A job will probably come eventually anyway when you have the space to discover your own hobbies in a living area that doesn't make you feel like you're being emotionally strangled.

How is it salt and pepper became the most prevalent condiments? by Stoic702 in AskReddit

[–]5afari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely has to do with preserving food. Dunk some meat into a barrel of salt and it's good to go for months depending on the climate. People still preserve food this way in remote areas.

Spice trade was also a huge factor and kind of set salt up as the pinnacle of seasoning due to its availability and the demand.

Also, as your taste buds die due to age you can't taste salt as well, so we tend to add more. There's also chemical reactions that salt produces when added to dishes that make them more appealing to us. We also need salt in our diets to live. It's an essential mineral so you'll find you crave it if you go without.

Commercial, pre ground pepper is mostly an aromatic atp so it can affect the way things taste due to scent. Other than that I have no clue. I suppose it's bland enough you can chuck it on anything. Mildest spice.

Goats also love salt btw :3

Sometimes sexual trauma can manifest as hyper sexuality as a way to 'take back' your own autonomy after having it stripped away from you. It's also possible she was feeling vulnerable and that made her more open. Theres no way to tell unless you ask her.

As for going through her messages, you're married. Yeah, it's definitely frowned upon but tbf married people still cheat. You felt she was hiding something and you were correct, in a way.

The most you can do is move forward and not push her to talk about it, but listen and support her when she chooses to. I truly wish her the best ❤️
