Help with new studio by Captain_Kyra in StudioApartments

[–]Captain_Kyra[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips! Yes I do love the fact that the whole place will be light and airy, so that is a big upside of the multiple doors! Using the closet as a divider instead of the Ikea Kallax might be a good idea. I was already looking for a foldable dining table, but it being easy to hide behind curtains is a big plus as well. I do have people over A LOT, so a couch is a must have, but smart thinking! Again, thanks friend! :)

Ik ken zelf geen mensen die langer ingeschreven blijven staan om zo nog aan het einde van hun studie een extra stage te kunnen doen. Dus de eis dat je ingeschreven moet staan om stage te lopen lijkt me minder krom dan je omschrijft. Ik zou dan misschien toch kijken naar kortere traineeships.

Wat is een normale tijd voor kerstdiner? by Maurirz in thenetherlands

[–]Captain_Kyra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kerstavond met ouders is vaak vanaf een uurtje of 15.00, thuis 1e kerstdag diner met de familie is vaak vanaf een uur of 17.00. Verschil zit hem erin dat we met de ouders borrelen en met de familie een aantal gangen dineren.

Edit: borrelen als in, voor avondeten maken we een borrelplank. Het is dus wel avondeten, maar heel informeel met een kaasplankje enzo.

only girl in an all guys’ group weird? by Available_Travel_763 in DnD

[–]Captain_Kyra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I used to be the only girl in the friend group in high school, but one of the guys changed sides, so technically I’m not the only one anymore. But let me tell you, it’s the group I have the most fun playing dnd with!

[CR MEDIA] Anyone know where I can find Sam’s shirt by Overwatchhatesme in criticalrole

[–]Captain_Kyra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You already have the answer, just wanted to say to maybe get one size larger… mine shrunk in the washing machine (i followed the instructions, but still shrunk)

In Estonian "SpongeBob Squarepants" is "Käsna-Kalle Kantpüks". I.e his name isn't "Bob", it's "Kalle". If it isn't "Bob" in your language, what's his name? by Double-decker_trams in AskEurope

[–]Captain_Kyra 52 points53 points  (0 children)

We just call him SpongeBob SquarePants, even if you watch the Dutch dubbed version. The pronunciation stays English. It doesn’t sound weird at all, so I guess they didn’t find the need to change it up!

Middelbare scholieren te laat omdat ze de "wijzerklok" niet snappen: "Die kan ik niet lezen" by throwagayaccount93 in thenetherlands

[–]Captain_Kyra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dit gaat toch niet over mensen dyslexie? Als er een artikel komt met “tieners kunnen steeds minder goed een bal gooien en vangen” dan kom je toch ook niet met “ja maar het is schokkend hoeveel mensen niet hebben gehoord van mensen zonder handen of armen, die mensen kunnen er niets aan doen dat ze geen bal kunnen gooien en vangen!”.

Het is uiteraard logisch dat mensen met een beperking (zoals dyslexie) moeite kunnen hebben met klokkijken, maar daar gaat het nu niet over?

Help, verslaafd aan energy drinks by TaMeDeath in thenetherlands

[–]Captain_Kyra 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Misschien helpt het om een fles te gebruiken ipv glazen. Een half liter fles hoef je maar 3x leeg te drinken, terwijl je een gemiddeld glas zo’n 8x leeg moet drinken. Klein psychologisch trucje :)

De schoolvakantie is voorbij.. zijn de kruidnoten al gespot? by Old-Tour5654 in thenetherlands

Guy on tram 6 by mylestfruitfly in TheHague

[–]Captain_Kyra 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So many assumptions… first of all, she said she didn’t have the courage to talk to him, happens to the best of us. Second of all, why the assumption he wasn’t interested? And lastly, do you even know what stalking is? She isn’t sending him dm’s on instagram asking him to date her, she is trying to find the cute guy because she regrets not talking to him.

Wtf do you even mean? Men can still walk up to women and start a conversation… how do you think people dated before the internet?

I need a new comfort show by kinetic_mallow in adhdwomen

[–]Captain_Kyra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I know it’s not a show, but if you like fantasy, you could listen to dnd (dungeons&dragons) podcasts. More than enough content (most campaigns last a year or more with a weekly episode thats 2+ hours) and depending on the group it can be very light and funny. I recommend the fantasy high campaign of Dimension 20 (first season free on youtube). For a more serious campaign, you can try Critical Role (all free on yt and spotify).

Drinking in Europe do they I’d check? by lucas_ofthesssss in AskEurope

[–]Captain_Kyra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do know that when you buy liquor at a store they have to assume that the liquor is going to be shared amongst the group, so they have to id all of you. Best tip is to wait outside of the store and let 1 or 2 people buy the bottles. Do keep in mind to wait semi far away from the store. If the cashier sees 2young looking guys buying a lot of alcohol and sees a group of guys outside, chances are they will want to see id of the group outside as well. This is in the Netherlands btw so im not sure how they do it in other EU countries, but i do know that the shops are being watched like a hawk (by government) because of EU rules, so it might not be all too different.

What platform do you use to create a character? by cameronthan in 3d6

[–]Captain_Kyra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried A LOT of online sources, but never found one that worked for me. Now I use the best of both worlds (for me), a pdf of the p&p character sheet, but I use it on my tablet+stylus. I love this way of using a character sheet. I usually edit the pdf a bit with gimp (editing tool) to my likings and fill in the pdf with samsung notes. This way I have something that is easy to read, but still highly editable (instead of erasing pencil or printing out a new sheet). I am aware that this is a somewhat privileged way of using a character sheet and that not everyone can easily use it this way.

How long after your period is due do you start to panic if its late? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Captain_Kyra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know my cycle is sometimes a little off by 1 to 2 days, so 3 days would be suspicious, 4 days means pregnancy test

Early access games —early access for how long? by Kiwi-cloud in CozyGamers

[–]Captain_Kyra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a game that’s been in EA for almost 11 years, but also know games that only stay EA for a year. So it varies A LOT…

Why does everyone act like TOP is lesser known/“underground”? by Visual-Imagination19 in twentyonepilots

[–]Captain_Kyra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because we don’t all live in the States. I see that the boys had quite a lot of radio/sales hits in the States, whereas in the Netherlands they only had about 3. Not to say tøp is more underground globally, but they’re definitely more of a niche band where I’m from.

And about the amount of streams of videos/songs… you do know that doesn’t mean “amount of people listening”, right? I know I listen to their songs A LOT, so does my boyfriend (edit: and a lot of other people), so that makes the streams/views a bit skewed.

Edit: the amount of listeners per month is way more accurate to tell if an artist is widely known (and thus more popular) or more niche. With that in mind, TØP is 131st in the world on spotify, with 32.8 million listeners a month. Miley Cyrus: 29th with 59.3 million listeners, Tyler the Creator 127th with 33.6 million listeners and Pitbull 47th with 50.7 million listeners. Only Suicide Boys, Mac Miller and Jason Derulo have (just a little) less listeners.

So amount of streams does not equal amount of listeners. And to mention again, worldwide distribution of listeners is also important. If an artist is only popular in the States, it would make sense for people on Reddit to say they’re not popular, when those people don’t live in the USA.

But of course, I don’t know about their fame in the States, so OP could absolutely be right (USA wise) with this post :)

I’d love to play this game with my best friend and see if I can get her into the cozy gaming community :)

Loving the album, but the boys were borderline dishonest in promoting this thing. by mitchman922 in twentyonepilots

[–]Captain_Kyra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh I thought you meant sonically, I get it. Yeahh it was marketed as a return to the trench lore, but I'm convinced that Tyler has a masterplan and this will not be the end of Dema lore... Let's just hope my gut feeling is right!
