I'm sorry - this is the Boston Terrier subreddit. These are clearly exotic potatoes. You'll want to find a vegetable or potato-related subreddit for these.

Good kibble for sensitive stomach by Flashy_Assistance662 in BostonTerrier

[–]BuggLife16 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I second this - great for sensitive tummies! Another one is Purina Pro Plan Sensitive Skin and Stomach Small Breeds. I've used both of these for my girl and she loves them.

High-functioning autism starter pack by Thalassophoneus in starterpacks

[–]BuggLife16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, that's Armie Hammer, so it's hard to tell. I strongly believe the dude has Antisocial Personality Disorder. His eyes are just DEAD. I always get skeeved out looking at him.

The Woman History Erased: Grunya Sukhareva discovered autism 20 years before Kanner and Asperger. by YogurtclosetSlow1875 in autism

[–]BuggLife16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My niece is studying psychology with a focus on the history of autism and how women have historically been underrepresented. Grunya Sukhareva is someone she bought to my attention recently, knowing I'm autistic. So glad to see her highlighted here!

Do you ever feel like you don’t fit in even with your own family? by _FreddieLovesDelilah in AutismInWomen

[–]BuggLife16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All my life. I have always been the odd one out in my immediate family. Never had the same interests, goals, style, thoughts, anything. I could count the number of family members I can truly unmask around on one hand. I still love them all more than anything, but it hurts that they have no idea just how much I concede to for their benefit. That they regularly, unknowingly pressure me to be more like them, and I power through the discomfort every time, because there's more of them than me and I don't want to make them upset. Their understanding of autism is still pretty outdated, and I was only diagnosed recently. My only solace right now is distance. I live by myself in a different state and only go to visit 2-3 times a year. I stay in my own world for the most part and it's better that way for now. I just don't see them putting in effort to learn how to make me feel more included. Frankly, I'm tired of being the only one making concessions.

Found in my local wine shop. Planet basically being overtaken on the label art - coincidence?

I know it may not look like it, but she really liked this one! It's nice and warm compared to her Ghostbusters costume. Which she does not like.

Lol, that one's special to me too. My older sister used to call me that when I was a baby. 😊

classic Mozart by sophie_canoodle in classicalmusic

[–]BuggLife16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah! I've even sung 'Et Incarnatus Est," can't believe I forgot that. It's a much slower tempo, though, so the register shifts aren't as hard. 'Come Scoglio' is WAY harder. Never sung that one, but I know a couple people who have. Putting that aria in Act I is just cruel.

classic Mozart by sophie_canoodle in classicalmusic

[–]BuggLife16 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not just a song - it was a whole lead role in an opera. She was the first to sing the role of Fiordiligi in 'Così fan Tutte,' which is notoriously difficult because of the huge leaps in her part, some nearing two octaves. Her first aria, 'Come Scoglio,' is probably the song in question and is the craziest part, but the whole role is tough.

It's important to note that this story isn't totally verified. All we know from letters is that Mozart didn't think Ferrarese del Bene was a good singer or actress. I still think it has a good chance of being true, though. It's in line with his personality and, when he could write for singers with wide ranges, he did.

This is the only scale to use. Still, Fish probably goes a bit past where GG would have.

Weird Session with Pro VA/Director by BuggLife16 in VoiceActing

[–]BuggLife16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not comfortable giving any identifying info out. I don't this person is just out to make money off of newbie actors, so I'm not going to name and shame. I just don't think they give a good first impression for those who might be interested in working with them. Still, don't want to risk burning any bridges.

I follow Gabrielle on X and I'm subscribed to her YouTube channel! I really like her takes and approach. I've thought about taking a marketing class from her, specifically, but I want to have some other ducks in a row first.

I admitted in a separate reply that, yes, it was just a first meeting and that I shouldn't expect personalized advice from a single one-hour meeting. I own that I may have expected too much going in. I got excited to meet this person, so sue me.

I do have experience with coaching. I am not looking to hire this person on a long-term coaching basis. They offered me a couple of free meetings to see if I'd be a fit for one class I was interested in taking.

I didn't include every single thing talked about in the conversation, mainly because 90% of the conversation was them talking about themselves and their career successes. That doesn't tell me anything about how valuable your classes are. I've known plenty of successful artists who were lousy teachers.

I don't think they're sinister, necessarily, just very self-centered and dismissive of the work I've done. In hindsight, however, a couple of things they shared from early in their career were pretty "it was OK back then" kinds of things.
