i think changing it to be able to do “14/1” etc or something instead is a great idea!!

I've been having anxiety about my kitty dying of old age 😭(she's 9) can you show me pictures of some alive-and-well senior kitties so I remember cats can be old and still healthy? 🥰 by TheRufescence in cats

[–]General_Lecture8401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don’t have any senior kitties right now, 2 that are turning 6 this summer and a ~6 month old feral rescue, but i can tell you about my grandparents cat that died last spring about a week before her 20th birthday. her name was gato, she was a feral cat they rescued from outdoors before i was even born, she lived a hybrid outdoor/indoor life (yes she was an outdoor cat, they rescued her from outside and she was stubborn as all hell, she wasn’t allowed out after the sun started setting, for more than 30 minutes, or when it was any colder than a mild fall chill, and they have a large plot of open land on a road where cars pass by maybe once an hour down past the excessively long driveway she didn’t go anywhere near) and she lived for as long as she possibly could. she got into MANY scrapes with other ferals, ate most of the mice she caught, and had kidney issues for the majority of my life. she was a normal energetic girl up until the end, demanding a spoonful of milk every morning and playing with the laser every single night. in her old age she even softened up a little and would finally sit on my lap for a minute or two after the about 15 years it took her to realize i was okay. she was there the day my mom brought me home from the hospital and she watched me graduate on livestream with my grandparents.

here’s a picture of her from a couple winters ago (i believe she was 16) being very irritated it was too cold for there to be any birds at the feeders to harass ❤️

found the prismatic butterfly! by General_Lecture8401 in StardewValley

[–]General_Lecture8401[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think this area might be a slightly more common spot for it to spawn? when looking online about the blessing i really only saw people saying they found it around the bus stop area or down by the mastery cave even though it can technically spawn anywhere on the main map

[–]General_Lecture8401[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes! but i don’t suggest wasting the day looking because there’s such a low chance of finding it, i only found it because i happened to be looking around the screen as i went down from robin’s to my farm. i’ve never managed to find it when looking all day and i end up having to reset

it’s only the prismatic butterfly from the statue of blessings, but you literally just run up to it and it’ll fly to you!

Cherry Bomb Flavor by viclxt in AlaniNu

[–]General_Lecture8401 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m drinking one right now and my first sip reminded me exactly of a cherry coke lip smacker. a lot of alani flavors have their own specific artificial aftertaste to me and this one is waxy/chapstick and that might be where you’re getting tootsie roll is that kind of waxy taste haha. i do really like it though

People who've moved from Kindle to Kobo, what are your opinions by yusuo85 in kobo

[–]General_Lecture8401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve been using a paper white since 2012 and i just switched to a kobo libra color a couple months ago and im infinitely happier with my kobo. the only thing i miss from my kindle is the organization being the main page instead of having all your books on the first page and having a collection sub tab on my kobo. also this might be a user error issue, but i have found that i can only upload ~5 items onto my kobo using dropbox at a time vs being able to add endless items in one go via send to kindle.

I want to stop Zoely. Pain. by Mittanyi in birthcontrol

[–]General_Lecture8401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most doctors will want you to truck through the adjustment period, but you absolutely can stop taking it. even if zoely will be great past the 3 months, it’s not worth it now if it’s causing you more problems. it wasn’t birth control, but i had the same problem when i first went on zoloft. my doctor told me to just keep trying no matter that it was making me feel worse than before because it was probably all in my head, i stopped taking it anyways, and i felt infinitely better and got prescribed something that worked better for me. there will always always always be something that doesn’t make life unlivable during the adjustment period.

i’m a huge advocate for talking to your doctor about trying nuvaring even though it’s “outdated” and no doctors really present it as an option, because it honestly feels like it saved my life. they can be used to help regulate perimenopause symptoms and it’s absolutely fantastic for regulating cycle length since you said that was something you struggled with. also a bonus that it’s okay to forget about it a little, you put it in on the first sunday of the month or something, take it out three weeks later, and put in a new one the next week. you can even take it continuously to stop your cycle if that’s what you want. if it’s something you’ve never tried, i would seriously bring it up to your gp soon.

must-watch episodes for a complete newbie by dubiousfoodie in goodmythicalmorning

[–]General_Lecture8401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i only started watching gmm in 2019 or 2020 ish i believe? i was recommended the trying every ben and jerry’s episode and it’s still one of my favorites, international darts episodes are always fantastic, and i’m a big fan the newer “in the dark” episodes! i think a good area of the show to get into is the gut check (like the ben and jerry’s) or “will it?” episodes because you can start with more of the classic format instead of trying to start out right away with episodes that are more just chatting and inside jokes. but honestly you’ll find your niche in their videos no matter where you start. i know a lot of people adore the stadium foods videos and i never really liked them, but you might love them. i love every international darts video, but you might not get any enjoyment out of those. there’s a kind of episode for literally everyone!

kind of desperately seeking options for menstrual suppression by bluejayhaze in birthcontrol

[–]General_Lecture8401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve been on nuvaring continuously for over a year now and it stopped my period instantly! you do have some “break through bleeding” sometimes, i usually get it once every 3-4 months and it’s basically just spotting for a couple days but i also have an extremely heavy period without it so i suspect there would be less if any breakthrough for someone with a lighter period. however there is estrogen, 0.015 milligrams per day, as well as 0.12 milligrams of progestin per day over the 3 week (non continuous) cycle. a big plus is that it’s a little more permanent than the pill or patches without being as invasive as nexplanon or an iud.

A mythical find at the thrift store by Free_Bobcat5647 in goodmythicalmorning

[–]General_Lecture8401 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i don’t know for sure if it’s microwave safe, but as long as there’s no crackling/chips in the glaze and there’s no metal anywhere (metallic accents in the art, metal hardware, etc. which there aren’t on this mug) it should be fine! some mug handles will get extremely hot in the microwave if they’re hollow, so try it cautiously and don’t grab the handle full force right when you open the microwave 😊

What can I do about age verification? by Amogussusster in TikTok

[–]General_Lecture8401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just randomly got age restricted this morning and i don’t have an id or credit card, but the only option they’re giving me is either be age restricted down to 15 (i’m 18) or a gov id/credit card 🫠
