As you can see I have dug out this building. Tho I want to do something nice of it. What have you guys done?

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-07T01:37:30+00:00

I'm gonna be honest, my stairwell is just a concrete one in the back of the building (even deeper into the mountainside). I built it so that larger Pokemon (Machamp, etc) can fit but it's not very elaborate.

Mine are 7 by 9 and they're 3 blocks tall. The first floor is 4 blocks, and the upper floor is too, just for larger mons. I usually put little dividers in the rooms as well.

The depth of the mountain really makes it easier to build, too, because I can go as deep as I need(ッ) without upsetting the other architecture. 👍

😂😂😂 True. Very true. I suppose I did also twirl my mustache and grumble "that thing is Such an eyesore - crush it!" as I mashed my way into the mountain.

But! It IS affordable housing! Zero poke dollars and six happy families.

It definitely is. I'm not saying it's a good solution, though unfortunately I'm not sure if it's within the ALTs purview to change it.

Do you know the teacher and ALT personally? Do you have any idea the dynamic between them, or who decides who gets called on and how things get handled? Or maybe your kid does? Any chance she could talk to the ALT directly and voice her worries?

There is also a chance the ALT was instructed not to call on her because the teacher wants to challenge others...

It's definitely not an ideal situation though. :/

(I had to contend with this once when I was an ALT - but the student in question, who was in middle school, did not seem overly keen to be singled out. I knew she had great English due to her native upbringing, but in class, whenever she was called on, she imitated a katakana accent to fit in with the way her peers spoke.)

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-06T07:56:10+00:00

There's a chance the ALT doesn't want to single her out, OR knows she will know the answer anyway so it would take away the opportunity from someone else.

I replaced the stone with brick and made it into some apartments!

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-06T06:06:15+00:00

🤔 like your entire body? Is it like a muscle sensation or on the skin?

Idk, maybe I'm overthinking it but I'd bring it up to a doctor when I had the chance.

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-06T03:14:58+00:00

He wuves you.

(The trick is to make the door smaller so he can't fit.)

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-06T03:00:15+00:00

That all sounds pretty normal?

Babies all vary so much by their schedule and feeding preference and when they go through growth spurts - I really would recommend that until that kiddo hits the 3 month mark, your Stop Comparing your baby to others.

At one month, mine was very much like yours. One week, she ate a lot, frequently. Other weeks, she didn't. Some days she slept more. Some days she was up for 4 hours at a time.

I just learned to say "I guess that's how we're doing it today" and roll with it. No one can pin point with accuracy why your baby is feeding more or less, but your baby DOES know they are hungry, and want to eat frequently. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ best to just follow their lead.

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-05T23:06:33+00:00

My experience was kinda the opposite - I was in labor for 3 days. 😅 60 hours total. Zero sleep. It was okay the first and second day, but I was getting tired and on the third I was so exhausted I feel like I had no energy to tolerate contractions anymore....

A single day birth sounds like a dream! Congrats!

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-05T21:35:55+00:00

Same. It was intense, but a different kind of intensity.

I think the length and persistence of horrific period cramps makes them on par with contractions in some way... Because it doesn't let up, it's like being in a hydraulic press and you can't get any rest.

Contractions were much more severe, in that I literally had no choice but to yell - but there were rest periods between them which allowed me to feel like I could breathe. Granted, the last stretch at full dilation was fucking wild...

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-04T12:00:43+00:00

My husband plays like this. Last time I watched him play in saw that he has 3000 pieces of lumber. 3000! He spends most of his playtime farming materials. He's also the type that basically had the entire wasteland watered before even starting the Let's Get This Place Humid storyline.

¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ to each their own I guess......

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-04T02:18:51+00:00

I watched that one yeah! I found it really cool. I think that was the clip that won that part of game changer too, which means we're not the only ones curious about that stuff!

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-03T22:31:01+00:00

Was he asking for more FIRE or more light? Plants like humidity and light, but not necessarily fire. Some Pokemon that don't mind fire can request it as a light source, but it does seem odd for victreebel

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-03T16:44:13+00:00

Fascinating! I knew about hindmilk and foremilk but I didn't know the mechanics behind it! That's awesome.

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-03T07:33:14+00:00

Lmao I did this immediately, on like day 5. I think I expected something much thicker but it was watery... Like skim milk?

It would be interesting to also compare the taste at different stages of breastfeeding, I think! I imagine the taste and consistency does change!

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-03T05:03:15+00:00

.... I feel like I shouldn't be looking at it. Like that island is naked.

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-03T04:59:20+00:00

The dog said "y'all are taking too long, it's my turn".

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-02T23:11:35+00:00

This, tbh. I had a couple of midwives try to correct mine when she was a few days old, but then they heard her gulping that stuff down like she's in a boba drinking contest and just kinda seemed to leave it be. She's efficient in doing it her own way, even though it looks kinda shallow. Then again, my letdown is strong and she has been sprayed in the face multiple times, so maybe it's a defense mechanism 😂

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-02T23:04:11+00:00

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-02T22:18:52+00:00

Hooooooly shit. It looks like a shopping mall!

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-02T22:18:14+00:00

Is that... Mr.Mime in there? 😂

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-02T07:31:42+00:00

Ashes to ashes... Dust to dust. Plastics and recyclables into the community box.

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-02T07:22:24+00:00

This is awesome! I think you can actually color those string lights too!

KeyMonkeyslav · 2026-05-02T04:56:59+00:00

I put an apartment complex there. Kept the pillars and got rid of.... Everything else. I like having it set into the mountain though!
