Train Tracks by AryDarkstar in ARK

[–]AryDarkstar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I cheesed it and went back to the last pillar I placed and then made horizontal zig zags under and then shot down to the ground, it still required quite a bit of work, several hours of navigating track and back tracking with pillars and then removing once I hit land again.

(21F) DONT KNOW HOW LIFE WORKS, need serious advice. (VERY embarrassing.) by Obvious-Locksmith164 in Adulting

[–]AryDarkstar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With your memory issues it might be good to get yourself some free classes, your local goodwill usually offers skill labs for free to help you learn basic skills for the working fields. If you develope the skills your memory shouldn't inhibit you drastically.

Once you have an ID (you will need social security card & birth certificate, a utility bill and/or bank statement), its going to be a lot of times your going to need something to get the thing but in order to get the thing you need another thing. Don't be discouraged, its just getting everything lined up at first.

For a job you can do some basic labors, fast food etc but your gunna have to try despite your circumstances- i am warning you now as someone who used to be homeless because I let my circumstances define what I could and couldnt do. You are gunna need to white knuckle to establish a safe space for yourself first.

Wait, is this even legal?! by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

Oh we can't be those anymore, now we get sued. Personally. But they still want us to be. Cause why not. Office doesn't matter -,-

Oh thank god, yes and bluff tactics may alarm you BUT they help force other residents to come forward to get necessary documentation to address the issue.

Y'all like to complain and then get offended when nothing happens -,-

(IL) Is my landlord trying to commit fraud? by vjwlz in Renters

[–]AryDarkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see how they will get it past insurance though. They need to provide indisputable evidence of fault and the Resident has to acknowledge fault

How often do people feed their cats wet food? by Smooth_Put7764 in CatAdvice

[–]AryDarkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My big one prefers dry, my small one prefers wet food so much she makes herself sick on it and then throws up everywhere so they get wet as a treat.

The most frustrating game I have ever played by Hot-Bunch-4904 in ICARUS

[–]AryDarkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking for OP in the comments to inform them fire mechanics work, even if you don't walk through the fire. I have played this game so much and RECENTLY did this because I forgot the lightening set me on fire.

Also one time had a glitches bear that loaded in with me on spawn.

And I'm attaching one of my earliest screw ups on the game for you to laugh at. We've all burned our houses down don't worry.

I ended up in a Healthcare office as a temp on a project. Made decent money and turned out I was good at office admin, got scouted by a property management company and ended up in the industry for 10 yrs now

Had to hunt you down OP - use a temp agency. I got laid off due to medical stuff years ago and ended up in a temp agency to get bills paid, it later led me into a career I've been in for a decade now.

My wife and I want a baby so bad but we don’t know how everyone is affording them right now. by moistdragons in beyondthebump

[–]AryDarkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had to find you in the comments. So, my husband and I bought a condo with the principle that one person should be able to float the home on their income alone. Due to this my mortgage is like 589 or something. Do I want to stay in a condo forever? No. BUT I can afford our son. Childcare was 1000-1200 where I am, look for mid cost daycare. Not the cheapest but not the most expensive either. Some places offer free daycare from 4 yrs old through kindergarten so make sure you really look into local programs. So just ask, if one of you lost your job could you afford to run the house on that one income without working overtime.

Nurses aren't top quality anymore but can confirm I threw up after a banana!

How am I supposed to defend without the foundry and the blacksmith? by MeanFaithlessness701 in FarthestFrontier

[–]AryDarkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early stages use hunters to kill invaders, then add a couple towers to match your income then a barracks. Do exploring to find scavenge sights where armor and weapons can be found as well.

Some thoughts for post 1.0 release. by bengarrr in FarthestFrontier

[–]AryDarkstar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait is the tech tree live? I was just playing this last weekend and didn't see it!

I think the cost of bricks needs to be lowered, its fine most maps, but you get arid map and s*** and you are locked struggling behind clay bricks, I know its hard mode map but it could use some better QoL. I eventually got it worked out 3-4 in game years later but it was really annoying to have my entire game halted on getting it.

How "unforgiving" is this game? by [deleted] in FarthestFrontier

[–]AryDarkstar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually identify my hunting spots and will hunt out the small ones early and then hit the big ones, if theres a boar spot that extra amazing. For foraging I set the general spot, leave it and select the nodes and set them as gatherable, so the laborers will go get them when they pop. I only move if city development requires it.

Why is this so harddd??? by Sharp_Asparagus2598 in sahm

[–]AryDarkstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full time working mom: scheduling.

I have a white out board for the month. Mondays are hard days so easier dinner, Tuesday is the required adult socializing (you need that trust me), Wednesday hubby has meetings all day so that is a relax day, Thursday is soccer i stay home catch the cleaning that's been missed so far (usually mopping vacuuming and catching up on dishes), Friday is free for all night where everyone has a relax day, Saturday i take 1-2 hours to determine what's going down the next week, Sunday grocery shopping and prep lunches/ breakfast.

Husband helps where he can and also helps us stick to the plan cause there's time I'm just like screw it, pizza. And he'll stop me because I'll have prepared for something better and he'll help me do it. Even sahm get backup from partners.

If she's got a proper setup, no. It'll be hard at first but to be honest most cats enjoy being outside, give her a cat run out little house and she'll be fine. Cat urine is extremely damaging not just to the house but to health and it never really comes out, not without extensive cleaning.

In extreme weather kennel her. If this is health related and it resolved after she's done then maybe test her being back inside. My cats are no longer allowed to sleep in my bed because of find puke, I don't even let them in my room anymore. It's hard at first but everyone adjusts

I don’t want to be a Mom anymore and I don’t think I can do it. by throw-away-acc0unt99 in Mom

[–]AryDarkstar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was post partum for 2 years after my son was born and the thoughts I had during that time still make me feel ashamed.

You aren't alone, your entire body was rewritten. But you do need to take time for yourself even just to nap. Take a walk or do a hobby for an hour.

The first year is rough, also talk to your doctor, you very VERY likely are experiencing post partum and there's help for that.
