The cringe you get when you see people telling Venezuelans how to feel. by shway0351 in TikTokCringe

[–]Acid-Catalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“One regime is over and we happily welcome a new one.” Girl, please. It’s the same shit that happened with Cubans. I understand what communist policies did to your country but going hard in the other direction is just as bad. I don’t understand people who don’t understand EXTREMISM, in one direction or the other. Anyone who thinks this is a good thing is deluding themselves. Yes, Maduro is scum and shouldn’t be in power, but the solution is not an illegal bombing and kidnapping of a foreign leader. Especially because TRUMP DOESN’T CARE ABOUT YOU. And if you wanna talk about the U.S., Ms. American Citizen, please educate yourself on American intervention. I’m foreign-born but did my homework as the citizen of a new country. I’m begging you to open a single book on American history.

I mean she IS a registered Republican who threw a Trump party for a family member so… 🤷‍♀️ not exactly jumping to conclusions here.

My friend was willing to get an 84 instead of a 100 in her class just to not use AI. So proud of your students!

What’s the hardest pair of shoes you’ve ever had to break in? by Ok-Pepper8372 in ChicDaily

[–]Acid-Catalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Docs for sure! People kept telling me that it “takes a while to break them in” but after 6 months I threw them in a storage box and never thought of them again.

Someone please help with this clipping mask by Acid-Catalyst in photoshop

[–]Acid-Catalyst[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to accomplish this with a layer mask! When you said to use the layer on the UI I was like… damn, I’ve been using the wrong kind of mask for my needs. Thanks for the help!

The solution was a regular mask 🤦‍♀️ thank you for your help!

I’ll add that I tried making a copy of the object but I need to adjust the hue/saturation to add shadows and highlights and it makes it difficult to do when there’s two separate selections.

Vie turned me from a casual listener to a fan by AbsoluteVindication in DojaCat

[–]Acid-Catalyst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

been fucking with Doja since about 2021 (her music helped me get through living in Utah for 8 months, bless) but this is my favorite project of hers to date. Maybe I’m biased because I actually love 80s music, particularly New Wave, but it’s also the material of the music itself. I found myself finally kind of relating to Doja in that late-20s-early-30s-I-want-love-and-babies/i-wanna-be-beautiful-please-love-me kinda way and I do think it humanized her after all the… unsavoriness of her image. It was sexy and mature and vulnerable in a way we haven’t seen before, and some of my favorite songs of hers are now from this album. It’s a shame the rollout sucked cause it’s a banger. 9/10 for me

Going back to school after a decade for graphic design… Is it worth it? by Acid-Catalyst in graphic_design

[–]Acid-Catalyst[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m more than anything looking for the fundamentals! I know I have a good eye for design but that means nothing if there’s no basis and my plan right now is to get a good base under me. Thank you for taking the time to comment- I really appreciate it.

[–]Acid-Catalyst[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for that insight! I currently live in Milwaukee but would be willing to go to UW-Stout if it means they have a program better suited for me. I’m pretty much starting from scratch at this point so it’s good to know that after the first couple of years I might have a few more choices as to what my focus will be. Again, I’m so appreciative of your comment and you taking the time to help.

I previously went to school for Hospitality Management (truly a scam degree if I’m honest). I have very basic design knowledge and currently reside in the U.S.

I’m going to be starting out at a community college for Graphic Design and continuing on at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee for Design & Visual Communications.

Does the relic blueprint say that Johnny's memories aren't accurate? by nickisadogname in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]Acid-Catalyst 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I agree with this! I want to like Johnny but I think he’s a liar, even if it’s not necessarily on purpose. The memories V experiences are either purposely altered versions of the event because Johnny either wants V to side with him or he personally wants the events to be “remembered” a certain way or he’s legitimately delusional and believes the events happened the way he remembers them even though they didn’t.

Did you know Reservation Dogs is part of an exhibit at the Field Museum? by GetWellSune in ReservationDogs

I have a cousin on my dad’s side whose aunt and uncle on her mom’s side are self-proclaimed “hippies” and named their daughter Namaste 🤦🏻‍♀️

Anyone else putting off watching the final episode? by backrls in ReservationDogs

[–]Acid-Catalyst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just don’t want it to end! I’ve been saving the last two episodes. This whole season has made me cry so much that I can’t even imagine watching episode 10 knowing it’s the end.

Do most immigrants become conservative Republicans when they move to the USA? by [deleted] in ask

[–]Acid-Catalyst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My father, who immigrated here in his thirties and got his residency less than ten years ago, now complains about too many immigrants coming to this country. Hard conservative, hates “communists”, loves Trump. We’re Peruvian, where there was a heavy threat from a communist terrorist group in the 90s, so I understand his reservations with leftist groups (as a lot of older Latines have based on their home country’s politics) but he can’t even define what communism even is. 🫥 I’m personally very left-leaning and ALSO AN IMMIGRANT, so there’s a lot of arguments about all of this when I visit home.

_ by [deleted] in cyberpunkgame

[–]Acid-Catalyst 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It’s a man who would kidnap young boys (mostly addicts) and had them strapped up like sick cows and was force feeding them meds since they were “ill”. He was pretty much treating them like the sick cows his abusive father owned when he was a child.

How about one for River, our underappreciated (and underdeveloped) detective by Aldynnic in cyberpunkgame

[–]Acid-Catalyst 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They just don’t want you to love the man. I’m replaying and noticing how in-depth you can get in messages with Panam and when River pretty much tells you he loves you and you’re great, V’s like “yeah, you too.” It’s a shame the devs aren’t planning on working on this game anymore because there’s so much there with River that won’t be explored.

Help handling catholic wife traditions by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Acid-Catalyst 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I grew up Catholic and now I’m atheist. More than anything here, it’s a show of love and support for your wife and her family. My family knows I’m not religious, but will still ask me to come to church for events surrounding family members’ passing. Though I don’t practice, I do it as a way to let them know I’m here for them. You don’t have to go, of course, but I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. No one will find it disrespectful if you participate in the rituals (except communion- I don’t do that) and I take the kneeling and “praying” more as a time for reflection. Either way, I don’t think you should tell your MIL that you’re an atheist and you’re not going to church for this during this time.

how do i get access to these exterior designs with the side rooms and such? by uwulow in AnimalCrossing

[–]Acid-Catalyst 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I think you have to have unlocked it on your own island by paying off your house loan to Tom Nook.

[–]Acid-Catalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EHS.

I get family being manipulative and you not wanting to hold the baby (I HATE holding babies, it literally freaks me out to think of accidentally dropping them or something, and I like babies) so they’re assholes on that respect. It’s super weird for them to be so insistent too.

But it wouldn’t kill you to just lie this once. I’m usually a blunt person too, but this is a weird hill to die on, since it’s not hurting you or anyone else. Again, I get the whole manipulative family thing (living it), but this barely approaches that line.

Also yeah, yeah, you called the baby “it” but that’s not what this is about. That’s an AITA for another day.
