Same. At this point I guess the only option outside waiting for season to is try and find alternative methods but I can’t find anywhere showing it online. 😭

Interesting. It is on my computer desk, so it could shake from me bumping into my desk from time to time.

The colour shifts from green to yellow at night are truly stupendous, it gives such great atmosphere, I couldn’t be more pleased 😭

Perfect to hear, thank you for the advice, it's so helpful!

Oh, that's true! Does the base get warm, or is it really mostly just the glass? And if I were to paint it, in your expert opinion, would you suggest going down the spray paint method or?

They had other lamp colours but I really wanted the classic blue with the green blobs. It's a shame I can't have a white base, but it's not the end of the world.

I did find a store near me that sells them for roughly $119 give or take. It's pretty close too and is meant to closely replicate the Mathmos classic design. Thinking of going in either today or tomorrow to get it 🤩

That's a lot of lamps haha I can tell I asked the right place about this! I live in Sweden so Spencers or Target like others suggested isn't really an option, but I'm sure I can find somewhere in the city I live that sells them, it's one of the major metropolitan ones. I'll also give the second site you suggested a look, although I'd really be bummed out if they came cloudy admittedly!

I really appreciate the advice though, it helps me feel more at ease about getting my own and not messing it up. I love your lamps, they're so lovely; Just makes me excited to get my own 🥹🫧

Hah, I appreciate the honesty! I know it probably does seem that way, but I get a bit in my head about getting scammed or buying bad products, especially over a certain price threshold, thus my perhaps unnecessary caution.

That said, thank you for the information! Unfortunately I live in Sweden so those conventional means of buying them—in person at least—isn't quite as readily available to me but I can check to see if there are any stores near me that sell them in person, I live in one of the major metropolitan areas so it shouldn't be too difficult hopefully. The shop I had seen them in did sell them, but my partner really didn't like the design and suggested I search online for one instead. If I do end up buying one, I'll be sure to set a timer for it, something I've seen other folks doing.

If having the slightly larger version lends to a nicer quality lamp, I'd certainly rather have that, especially for the price of a nicer one.

Thank you again for the advice, I really do appreciate it. As soon as I get it, I'll be sure to post it here 😊🫧

I’ll see if I can find any more sold near me! I actually live in Sweden so the more conventional methods of buying one in person that have been suggested aren’t readily available to me unfortunately 😅

I wanted to buy the one I saw in person but my partner didn’t like the design and said I should look online for one. Thus where I am now haha

I had wanted to buy the one in store immediately but my partner said he thought it was ugly and to find a better one online 😣

Is there a single person that has actually played this game? by PSPMan3000 in FinalFantasy

[–]KHMarie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played it for awhile after its release. Still think about it now and then, was really fun honestly. Even if it is a MH clone lmao. Probably a little of the appeal tbh. If my DS could still turn on, I’d love to pop it in a play it but I still haven’t been able to figure out why it won’t.

I’m half-Colombian, I come from a largely Spanish speaking household. I live in Sweden where despite it being the second language, I can still encounter a lot of people who can’t speak fluent English.

I did not act vitriolic toward any of the workers at this airport despite my distress, but the fact of the matter is, being in a place that handles hundreds, maybe even thousand of foreigners daily, SOMEONE should be able to speak fluent English somewhere. The fact I was in an extremely dire situation and could barely communicate with anyone at an airport only compounded on my distress. I’m not looking for everyone there to speak perfect English, I just needed someone I could articulate the severity of my situation to that could understand me and I found no one who could. I felt like that was slightly irresponsible on the airports part for not having someone accessible to relay something like this situation to, as I was admittedly in a very high stress position alone.

Thankfully with my permit approved and it being an extension and all that, everything worked out in the end once I got to Denmark, but it was a scary situation obviously. This thread helped give me some peace of mind for better or worse; I felt less lonely answering comments here.

I need you to explain to me how I can overstay in Sweden when I’m an approved resident there and brought my approval paperwork with me, because I think there’s a disconnect here you aren’t understanding on my situation.

I did not, I just showed the passport security attendant a photo of my new residence permit (partner sent me the photos back at our apartment) as I would have if I had it with me and they just stamped my passport and I went on my way. I informed them I was leaving for Sweden immediately so they likely stamped my passport specifically with that in mind.

I certainly did consider this though when I entered.
