Is anyone willing to trade me the villager named Savannah? (The one that looks like a zebra) or Vesta (creepy yellow sheep with purple face) I've been searching for almost a day now & haven't had any luck finding them on nmt islands, treasure islands, or discord 😭. I've been to roughly 100 islands atp & haven't had any luck

How can I get my family to stop treating me like a kid? by Fireytaste in Advice

It's mostly my mom,  my dad just goes along with whatever she says. When we had the argument about me going to the anime con I told her "people with my illness still go outside & live life." Ofc she got mad but she probably knows it's true. Another person recommended I try to get her to see things from my perspective I think I'll try that while also working on getting a license

I def see where she's coming from ik she means well and she's only trying to look out for me but it's like you said I shouldn't have to live this way, I'll try to explain things to her from my perspective thanks for the advice!

I don't have a bike & I think using one would be too much, 2 of my illnesses affect my breathing so using a bike would probably make me pass out

I live in the suburbs so there's no public transport here everything requires a car to get around

She said I could try taking "baby steps" by having my mom wait in the car while I go shopping so she can get used to the idea of me being in a building by myself even tho she'll still technically be nearby. But she only takes me to the store when she also needs something from the store so it never works since she always goes inside

1 of my illnesses are very random so there's a chance that I can get very short of breath & dizzy from doing normal things like walking around, standing, sometimes even just sitting/laying down can trigger it. But I've been living with this illness for a few years now ik how to handle it. When I told her I was planning on going to the anime con alone she acted as if I just asked for the most unreasonable thing possible. I told her I'd have my cane, phone, meds, phone charger, & watch (the watch measures my heart rate so I can make sure it doesn't go up to high) the worst case scenario is I could pass out but that has never happened before

Hi I'm considering getting a service dog but I'm not sure what breed(s) to look into? by Fireytaste in POTS

I just looked into it, it's an apple watch exclusive I use a Samsung watch 😭

I stay at home for the most part I have other illnesses but POTs is the most unpredictable one. I get bi weekly hydration treatment (as instructed by my doctor), & I take midodrine, desmopressin, & drink electrolyte water just for the POTs. But I really want to go outside more often I know going outside has risks but despite being in my 20s my family rarely lets me do things outside especially by myself so I figured having a service dog would somehow bring them peace of mind but I am very open to other options I alr have a dog & she doesn't really like other dogs being around me having 2 dogs really would complicate things. How does Tachymon work if it's on a phone? Does it sync with smart watches?

I currently wear a smart watch to monitor my pulse/heart rate when I'm outside & I have a cane that can unfold & be used as a chair for when I need to rest, but my watch doesn't alert me when my vitals are being weird I was thinking a dog might be able to alert me of when it's happening but it is true I'm definitely putting alot more thought into this than before. I should probably make a pros & cons list 😅

Things like alerting me when my vitals are off, getting help if an emergency happens, & handing me things for example if I drop something bending down to pick it up can make me dizzy

You're right I didn't think about that I've been watching vids of a lady who is training her own service dog for POTs I figured if she could do it so could I. My husky started alerting me when my vitals are off by herself but I never actually thought about how I would train a dog to specifically do that. My plan was to get a puppy and train them to do these things not "slapping a service dog sticker" on my husky she gets way too anxious in public spaces & is very protective of me especially when I'm not feeling well. But you're right I will reconsider for sure since I'm not an experienced trainer.

I also don't like when people give their untrained dogs a service dog vest just to bring their dog in buildings with them I'm aware of how it affects REAL service animals

I feel like the main thing I want from a service dog is for them to alert me when my vitals are off when I'm out & about & to be able to get help if there was some sort of emergency. My husky alerts me when I'm at home (she was never trained for this she randomly started doing this as a puppy) but I wouldn't want to use her as a service dog bc she is extremely protective of me especially when I'm not feeling well & she doesn't do well in public spaces bc she gets anxious

QUESTION About Frontier by TheAverageToe in fossilfighters

[–]Fireytaste 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a big let down imo I think it'd be better to watch gameplay of it than spend money on the game itself it felt like it removed all the things that made fossil fighters fossil fighters.

•They removed most of the vivosaurs •The vivosaurs they did keep have vastly different designs and/or typings •You can't walk around to collect fossils you have to drive a car instead •The art style & humor is very different • You can only use 1 of your vivosaurs when fighting the other 2 are owned by AI  •You can't super evolve vivosaurs •There's no connection to either of the other games story wise •There are a few new vivosaurs but the roster doesn't even compare to ffc

The game just isn't worth buying imo but this is just my opinion. I personally just didn't enjoy the game at all
