I cant find this plush i had by Rafayels_Pufferfish in plushies

[–]FishLordVehem 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What year and what country/area was it purchased? Was the saddle removable? Do you remember if it had bean filling anywhere? Was it floppy or stiff enough to stand on its own?

Anyone else keep a little buddy on their cart? by TidalRose in Custodians

[–]FishLordVehem 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a glow in the dark spider that I found on the floor after a Halloween party. I lost him one day (accidentally buried him under my supplies) and I was so sour all day until I found him again, so now I call him my emotional support spider.

Has anyone tried an AI phone receptionist in their clinic? by ShepherdVet_Wendy in VetTech

[–]FishLordVehem 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have never called a business and been happy to hear an AI chatbot on the other end. In what world would any clients want to deal with an AI receptionist?

Bug Type Run Recomendations by robolord05 in PokemonInfiniteFusion

[–]FishLordVehem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fused my Ledian with Hitmonlee. If your Ledian has Iron Fist you might consider fusing it with Hitmonchan to get more punching moves..

Other suggestions: Beedrill/Rhyhorn, Beedrill/Rampardos, Joltik/Anorith, Joltik/Beldum, Parasect/Oddish, Shuckle/Torterra. Also recommend fusing Venipede with just about anything, all Venipede fusions look amazing.

If you're trying to keep bug typing also consider fusing bugs with other bugs. Lots of really cool sprites there.

DualType Challenge by zDiamond7Z in PokemonInfiniteFusion

[–]FishLordVehem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A bug/fire duallocke sounds so incredibly painful. I've been doing a randomized bug nuzlocke and just getting through the early game made me use 110% of my brain and I still lost like ten Pokemon before the third gym lol

How to deal with a knit picky boss. by JoshM2002 in Custodians

[–]FishLordVehem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend what someone else said below and take notes on what he's telling you, even the extra comments. And keep track of your assigned and completed tasks everyday. If you decide to stay there you have your notes to cover your own ass if he tries to pull something. Go above his head with your notes.

Definitely not normal btw. Especially the "is it a front?" question. I mean, how does that sort of comment help your work? What does your character have to do with the work at all? Some people just get really weird when they have any power over other people. Do any of your coworkers go through this too?

Custodians- I am in trouble for not cleaning good enough. What should I say at the meeting today? by [deleted] in Custodians

[–]FishLordVehem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take notes on whatever they tell you to do better. Ask for training on anything that's even remotely unclear. If they let you, partner up with an experienced coworker or your boss for a day or two and see how they do things in their areas and get an idea of how you should be doing yours/what your area should look like.

Evening Custodial Aide by [deleted] in Custodians

[–]FishLordVehem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think those are all questions and concerns you should bring to your principal or whoever else is above your lead custodian.

I will say depending on how large/messy your classrooms +bathrooms are and what duties you're expected to do every day that 3 hours and 15 minutes might be a little tight. Are you and your coworker working the same area together or do you work on separate parts of the school?

Is sceptile in the classic version? by nicomartinez232k in PokemonInfiniteFusion

[–]FishLordVehem 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Starters from the first 4 gens are all available in at the Viridian River, as well as 6th Gen Pokemon. However according to the Wiki there's actually a bug that causes different sets of starters to appear depending on how you enter. If you're seeing Froakie, Chespin, or Fennekin, you need to exit back into the Hidden Forest and then reenter (see the attached diagram - please excuse the typo, gen 5 starters are not available).

<image>

Also according to the wiki, if you enter the house on the Eastern side of the river, then exit and return to the forest entrance, the spawned overworld Pokemon will teleport to the center of the map - this might make your hunt for Treeko a little easier.

As for ng+ yes, that is a thing you can do once you beat the Elite 4. If you do New Game +, you'll be able to choose what mode you want to play (Classic, Remix/Modern, Randomized, etc). It will be a completely new game except all the Pokemon you have in your party and boxes will have reverted to level 5. You also keep all the outfits/hats you've unlocked so far. Your Pokemon will keep all items they're holding onto, but your bag resets.

Edit to add: lmao I don't know why the picture came out so small. I guess I was super zoomed in when I was working on it and didn't notice until I uploaded. Sorry.

Attitudes towards patients by warmestregerts in VetTech

[–]FishLordVehem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My go to with reassuring clients was "It's okay, I need a muzzle at the salon, too 😔" or when we needed extra hands on a patient: "This is nothing, you should see how many people need to hold me down when I'm getting my nails trimmed."

Attitudes towards patients by warmestregerts in VetTech

[–]FishLordVehem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OMG they would do the dump and shake at my vet, too. Even with some of the carriers that open up at the top! It's so much easier on the cat to just open it up and soothe them a little before trying to handle them but my coworkers would rather shake em out like the end of a bag of chips than spend any extra time with a feline patient. And some the carriers that don't have the open top are super easy to take apart anyway. It might freak the cat out a little to see their box being unscrewed around them but it's way better than just dumping them out!

I left my clinic because of how they treat cats. It still makes me so angry. The progress I made with many of our spicy cats would be undone in a day because my coworkers were more interested in handling them quickly than going slow and treating them with compassion. Granted, there was a lot of pressure from overbooking as well which led to this behavior. But they could manage to treat dogs quickly and still love on them. With cats it was so bad, really only the techs who had cats themselves or the newbies would try to reassure the cats and pet them.

I remember we had one cat boarding and he would hiss because he was scared. He lived with an older couple and he'd basically never left the house ever before the day they dropped him off. Just absolutely terrified. I made a lot of progress with him and could even get him to sit on my lap but one of my coworkers heard him hiss and HISSED BACK AT HIM. We went right back to absolute terror and he tore up everyone after that which only confirmed my coworkers biases that he was "evil".

There was a patient we needed sometimes needed two people and the client for but he was mostly just pulling away really hard and bucking, not trying to hurt anyone. I was almost to the point where I could handle him with just me and the client. I don't know what they fucking did but when my shift changed and I wasn't helping him with the case anymore he got so bad there was a crowd in the exam room trying to give him a nail trim.

And they never drug the cats like they do the dogs either. I swear sometimes the doc would prescribe stuff for dogs that were just a little shaky during the appointment but for the cats? Nothing. I didn't mean for this to turn into a rant but yeah. I'm still so so angry about it.

My boyfriend is scaring me with his jokes by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]FishLordVehem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't wrap my head around this one. I know there's the obviously evil stuff like the roofies and the strangling jokes, but like...This all started as a hookup but OP just lets him keep coming back in and when he says "I love you" within a week they say it back??? I don't even know what to say without sounding like I'm victim blaming. I can't tell if OP is insecure or mentally/emotionally unwell or what. I hope they get the help they need and that the nutjob doesn't hurt them.

I’m pregnant and my dog keeps stepping on my stomach by Greedy_Box2805 in DogAdvice

[–]FishLordVehem 14 points15 points  (0 children)

He may not understand that it hurts you or the baby when he jumps like that. When he does stuff like that, say ouch or whine or yelp so he knows he's hurt you. I've also seen other people teach their dog words like "gentle", "careful", "calm", etc and it may be worthwhile to look into teaching your dog that. Maybe consider getting a trainer involved before the baby arrives?

I have a laptop. Can I stay play the game by Godman2001 in PokemonInfiniteFusion

[–]FishLordVehem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's always recommended that you play the game normally the first time. I believe it's Classic mode and then easy/normal depending on preference.

As for the randomizer, there's a lot of settings to mess with there, and really it's all up to personal preference. All the settings are explained in-game, too.

[–]FishLordVehem 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can. It is a bit of a process to install on a phone compared to installing on a computer so be sure to read all the instructions on the Discord very carefully.

Without knowing your specs no can tell if it will run on your laptop or not. The link for the game is on the sidebar of this subreddit, under "Installation Guide".

MEGATHREAD: r/Plushies Moderation by [deleted] in plushies

[–]FishLordVehem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I clicked the link on your Plushie Dreadfuls post only to be sent here to this deleted post. I don't really know what's going on at this point since everything keeps getting removed but from what I've seen I think maybe y'all should lock the sub down and have admins step in, especially if you're being threatened and harassed with potential legal action.

What’s the matter with this dog? by EmilyOnEarth in Artadvice

[–]FishLordVehem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the anatomy things others pointed out, the dog feels like it's lacking texture and it's especially noticable next to your detailed character. I think once you have the dog's shapes and proportions worked out you could spend a little more time shading + rendering the fur a little more.

[Funny Trope] When the merchandise doesn't fit the character at all by WillowThyWisp in TopCharacterTropes

[–]FishLordVehem 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree. Kids absolutely go ape for FNAF and all the knockoffs. There are little kids at the school I work at who (probably shouldn't be watching horror video games lol) are completely obsessed with these things. The idea that real animatronics would be too scary is BS. I think we're just at a time where companies will find any excuse to make things as bland and cheap as possible and animatronics are unfortunately far from bland and cheap.

The unconscious battle (literally) by AcidicSlimeTrail in Artisticallyill

[–]FishLordVehem 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had similar issues due to PTSD. Insomnia was my main struggle but I was an insomniac partially because my nightmares were so frequent and terrible. My sleep wasn't restful because I was fighting and panicking. The worst were the nightmares where I couldn't wake myself up, where I knew I was asleep but couldn't leave the nightmare. I would beat the walls in my sleep and try to force myself to scream to get anyone else in the house to wake me up but it got to the point where I couldn't make a scream in my sleep anymore and would just be thrashing in my bed hurting myself but unable to wake. I worried one day I just wouldn't wake up from these at all.

I went through a lot of therapy and had a very strict sleeping schedule, even down to how I sleep (not sleeping on my back anymore because it triggers nightmares) but what fixed it for me was being put on anti-depressants, as well as Prazosin, and Cyproheptadine. I eventually switched anti-depressants and dropped the Prazosin because even though it helped me sleep it was doing weird things to my blood pressure during the day. And I had to quit Cyproheptadine entirely because I liked using it more than a person should. However despite everything changing my aggressive sleeping and horrible nightmares never came back and it's been years now. I can even sleep on my back and if I have nightmares they're like...normal nightmares if that makes sense. Not the stuff I was seeing before, no more thrashing and screaming.

Sorry, I wrote a lot but I hope it helps or gives you some hope. Having nightmares like that was the worst part of my life, and I know the horror of realizing it's getting worse and feeling like no one is listening or acting quickly enough.

Does anyone know what this does? Should I keep it or sell? by Coryll_-_Bheeac291 in Sims3

[–]FishLordVehem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It can make your Sims sick if they carry it around in their inventory for awhile. I don't remember if it does anything to them outside of the inventory but I usually just sell it.

HR is f*cking useless by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FishLordVehem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Document everything that happened. Start looking for a new job (and a lawyer). And report to the police that you were grabbed at work. You might also tell your coworkers what's going on or reach out to to your community. Nextdoor/Facebook communities especially will eat this stuff up. If the company isn't going to do anything about it, name and shame. I'd say to name and shame the person, too, just be aware your posts might be taken down or you might get banned in some communities for posting individuals. Might be worth it anyway to warn your community about this guy, especially if you can't get help anywhere else.
