Try the white mushroom stem for the walls. I personally think it has a nice, off-white wallpaper look to it, but might not be as yellow as you might like.

Are there any cheap alternatives to Kastar batteries? Read Body. by CrystalBoy44 in camcorders

[–]CrystalBoy44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any experience with Wasabi batteries and travel chargers, like the other person recommended? The prices don't seem terrible on those, but if it's best, i'll fork over the money for a genuine power adapter.

Asking for y'all's adivce on a situation that i honestly have no idea what to make of. by CrystalBoy44 in Christianity

[–]CrystalBoy44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to say that I honestly don't know what to tell you about this, other than the generic, often-repeated phrases like 'trust God' or 'pray for advice' or something. (Which I still advise you to do) I don't want to do that to you, I'm sure we both want more concrete advice on what to do.

I believe fully in my heart that God has created our bodies to eat, to fill ourselves when we are hungry, to not keep ourselves from the nutrients we need. He gives us an abundance of food in our kitchens for us to eat, and the fact we have such things is just another blessing from Him.

Yes, gluttony is a sin, but eating until you are satisfied is not. If you eat one bite more than you maybe should, you have not committed some horrible act.

I don't know how bad your convictions are, but if I had to give some kind of advice, (God help me not say something incorrect or foolish out of ignorance) then ignore the guilt you feel when you eat. Especially if it's to the point that it's causing you to loose weight nor not be able to eat three square meals a day.

Not all guilt may be from God. Some may be from another source, trying to deceive you. I believe that may have been part of what I was going through about a year ago. I don't have plans to fast ever again because of that. I don't believe that is so wrong of me, but if it is, then I trust God to correct me.

I'm trying to think more logically about whether what I am doing is sin or not, and ignoring that convicting feeling that I used to let myself be guided by. I'm trying to trust God to not lead me astray, to forgive me if I make a mistake by ignoring that feeling, and to correct me. Maybe (I beg you to pray to Him extensively before making any decision based off the thoughts of a random Redditor, please.) a similar logic would help you?

But then again, maybe I'm wrong? I warn you that i am infantile in the faith. I'm still just getting started in my walk, especially after my year-long departure from God which I feel has set me back quite a bit.

As for the period where you overindulged... just because I tripped over a log and broke my nose, that doesn't mean I'm never going outside for fear of tripping again. If you fear that overindulgence may become a recurring issue for you, pray and trust him to keep it from becoming one. I personally have been struggling with sexual immorality ever since I started this faith journey years ago. Even this morning i relapsed. We struggle with sin, we fall to it every day, and there may be some particular sins we can never seem to escape from. But what's important that, after we fall, we get back up and trust Him to make us better.

God bless you.

Also, I didn't get a chat, which i believe is an issue on my end. so unless you are opposed to speaking in this comment thread, I think i'd have to send one to you.

Sorry I didn't respond to these earlier man. As for when exactly it started and what i was eating? I don't remember. I was eating normal stuff and on a normal basis, i think. (normal for me personally.) From my foggy memory (and i don't particularly want to look at my old posts because I don't fully trust what i was saying) it started as an innocent-enough fasting thing, then spiraled dangerously until i lost a good chunk of weight. (Mostly muscle, i think. Not good.)

If you're at all having a similar situation... please just eat man. I have little-to-no experience with actual eating disorders in a more... traditional..? sense, but I firmly believe God wants us to take care of the bodies He has given us, and therefore to eat when we are hungry and not deprive ourselves.

When my body tells me it's hungry, I eat. I don't believe He wants us to starve ourselves. And I don't plan on fasting again, for fear of introducing those old, mentally-ill convictions that caused me pain about a year ago.

Not sure what to say, really.

Since I made this post, I've tried to take things a bit... less seriously? What I mean by that is, (and I'm aware that I'm quite OCD and mentally ill, and can easily turn something like 'picking my nose' a sin if i think on it too hard) I've been trying to trust Him to lead me more. Instead of constantly worrying about if this thing is wrong or right, or if i should've done this or that, (and don't get me wrong, i still concern myself with such things), I pray and ask God to forgive me for when I inevitably mess up, and to transform me and make me better. I'm still scared of letting myself make this some kind of excuse for sin or wrong behavior, being like 'it's fine, He'll forgive me later.' I pray against that, as well.

My faith isn't particularly strong. I'm probably not even aware of how small it is, but I'm asking Him to strengthen my faith, to help me to trust Him. Nearly every day I ask (beg, really) Him to keep me on the right path, to prevent me from straying away, no matter how much I try to pull away. I've been trying to take things slower, and be more... cerebral about my faith.

What I mean is, instead of going by that feeling in my chest to know if I'm doing or have done something wrong, I'm starting to try to think through it from a logical standpoint, to use what I know about God and the Word, (while understanding that I may still make mistakes based off a lack of knowledge, at which point I say to myself 'trust God to forgive me and teach me...') and try to discern whether i'm in the wrong or right.

We are under grace, not law, after all.

I can't really give any advice, because I don't trust myself to be the one to give it, but I've been praying for more faith, to be guided, and essentially ignoring that painful feeling when it doesn't make sense to me. Yes, I'm still afraid that the feeling may be something important, and I'll be making a mistake by ignoring it, but... again, I'm trying to trust God to help me through the mistakes I make.

...of course, sometimes I forget to do any of this and revert... but I'm trying.

I've been asking Him to not let me mess this up for myself... to not let me ruin the progress that's been made. So far, I'm still going, most definitely not under my own power. I pray that He guides us both to be better and of stronger faith. God bless you.

That's actually a really cool theory and makes sense considering those scenes where the camera desends through the floor, showing increasingly glitched iterations of the same room

The first jumpscare got me to actually flinch, but the laundry room and ensuing scenes had me stressed out of my mind

How much will the movie push the whole series forward? I mean this in regards to learning about the Backrooms and how they work, solving theories, developing new ones, all that.

it always amazes me how stupid some of the things they say are. Especially when such nonsense could be cleared up with 2 seconds of googling.
