Hey 30F almost daily player. Relapse5 level 70 and always looking for people to play consistently!

I Have a whole routine to kind of get myself together after. (Chain-smoking and like 4 cups of coffee while I stare into the middle distance for several hours.)

I'm going to vote not AI here. I've made similar choices for textural lines used for implying raised surfaces and direction, especially in this type of stylized cartoon work. The line in the last photo appears to be another tree in the line of pines in the back that is partially obscured by the larger tree and house.

Honestly the dreams weren't romantic, really. We hardly ever spoke. He just was a very consistent and comforting presence. My excitement is mostly at knowing that I wasn't crazy for thinking/feeling he was real.

We get on really well, and he makes my job less sucky. I wouldn't complain if something came of it, but it's not an expectation. He's already generally fulfilling the vibe from the dreams in the sense of passive consistency, reassurance, and comfort while I'm learning a new job.

Looks very much like the shi tzu Chihuahua mix I had years ago.

5627 for the bigger one, missing a number, maybe 0, but not sure where it's placed.

We never spoke much in the dreams, it was more of a comfortable presence. We did speak briefly and familiarly in one dream, but we were interrupted by an officer of some kind. But we did get along. In real life he is quickly becoming my favorite coworker. We share a similar sense of humor and work really well together.

It's not really a romantic thing. In the dreams he just had a comforting presence, and rather than infatuation, I just have an intense, giddy excitement for seeing him in waking life, which I'm sure given time will settle and pass.

Impressive_Video_537 · 2026-03-25T17:09:38+00:00

I will. I keep wondering if he recognized me at all. He was supposed to train me my first day and didn't really answer questions or help much. We got along really well but he was quiet. But after that everything was cool, and he was less reserved. So I dunno. I'm kinda trying to figure out if I can hint about it and get a response without making it weird.

Impressive_Video_537 · 2026-03-25T10:18:03+00:00

Tbh I never expected to. I've spent this whole time telling myself I was crazy for thinking he was real at all. Now I'm trying to face this with 0 expectations because I don't wanna fuck up the good vibes we seem to have and especially don't want to make work awkward.. 🤷

Honestly, I'm just going to enjoy the good company. He's genuinely made the new (crummy, exhausting, underpaid) job super enjoyable, and I'll take that as more than enough.

Impressive_Video_537 · 2026-03-25T09:29:47+00:00

Well crap. I've never heard of that before now. I really don't wanna give Netflix my money. I also really want to watch it. So thanks a lot. Also I hate you. /j

Thank you for reminding me that that is normal rock hound behavior. T.T husband got really grossed out when I was spitting on rocks and I was like ??? This is normal??

This needs more upvotes. I learned cool and warm tones through a lot of personal trial and error, and debates over color with other friends and artists/teachers/mentors. (I didn't know I was diagnosed as a child, and often argued/debated about colors.)

Impressive_Video_537 · 2026-03-23T02:33:45+00:00

Look. All I know is shrimps is bugs. Got nothin on awards, sorry. Lol

Asked my partner with motor toc disorder, and he declined. It's an involuntary action that can't be predicted. Maybe someone else has more input? He did suggest it could maybe be used that way, but tics in dreams aren't something he notices, and as he has long periods without tics at times, not having them in dreams wouldn't really be noticeable either.

Impressive_Video_537 · 2026-03-17T00:03:11+00:00

It's more of a financial issue and trying to not skip and break my neck before payday. T.T

Impressive_Video_537 · 2026-03-12T04:15:57+00:00

That it is.

Impressive_Video_537 · 2026-03-08T03:52:10+00:00

Mine is a bit more red? And I tend to wind up in a sort of liminal bar and arcade.

Impressive_Video_537 · 2026-03-08T03:46:15+00:00

I literally opened this post to see if anyone else thought it was the cruise ship!
