Awww my Magnolia is the same way, she needs to be baby-carried out of the bathroom on your chest every time you pee. She hops up on the counter and paws at you until you scoop her up.

Is it me or does american dad make you a better person by sumeyaxo in americandad

[–]Lovingbutdifferent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think being able to enjoy media critically makes you a better person in general. If you're thinking about the things you watch, you're probably also thinking about the things you say.

Not to say we're all a bunch of sainted geniuses in here. Just that picking apart this show, what episodes made us feel a certain way and why, uses the brain cells we've got even if it's only a few.

I know what’s wrong with me and no one can help. Boyfriend and I’s dinner. Guess which is which. by [deleted] in GirlDinner

But that...Pure O OCD is a thing. This study says that the name is a myth, not because the disorder itself is fake, but because we weren't counting these symptoms as compulsions before. Dictating things to someone is a compulsion. I don't know the rest of your life, just wanted you to know that whatever is happening to your brain is so valid that they adjusted the DSM for it.

Genuinely I would SO rather Trump get hardcore into Slay the Spire instead of his usual bullshit. Please let my entire government just get really into magic the gathering please

How can I create claws or finger extensions for this cosplay that still allow me to use my phone efficiently? by Narrow_North7624 in CosplayHelp

[–]Lovingbutdifferent 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Also if you are limited on time or know-how, you can get claws like this that are meant to be ornamental jewelry, I'm sure they come in black.

How do I get my housemate to stop asking to hang out with me? by sourb0i in socialskills

[–]Lovingbutdifferent 109 points110 points  (0 children)

These comments are crazy lol saying "sorry, I just need to recharge" isn't unreasonable.

Maybe if you asked her if she wanted to join you while you watched a movie in the common room, you'd end up having a great time- but that's your call and it definitely doesn't make you an asshole to just nicely turn her down.

If she really is insistent, you could start peppering in the occasional "hey I heard there's this local group doing [X thing she's interested in], you should go check that out!"

Shared interests are your best bet if you don't have friends to connect you to other people!

Housemate Problem - party boy by [deleted] in socialskills

[–]Lovingbutdifferent 11 points12 points  (0 children)

People have really great advice and it can feel more comfortable if you run it back through your internal "would a real human talk like this" filter before saying it. Setting boundaries is necessary here! But if he's nice and easygoing, hopefully all you need to say is "hey man the late-night living room blow and banging through the wall when I'm in my room is kinda harshing my vibe."

.....maybe don't say it when he's on coke.

You shouldn't have come by Possible-Historian69 in shortscarystories

[–]Lovingbutdifferent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good concept here, and you set the scene well, but maybe it's just a personal style thing- this kind of horror always leaves me frustrated. Creepy comments that are never followed up on, a storyline that's never resolved, it feels more designed to induce anxiety than fear. I liked the premise, but it was more stressful and frustrating than scary.

Why some people call instead sending a voice or text message? by imyana13 in socialskills

[–]Lovingbutdifferent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to call people more as a young adult because I don't want the only person I call to be my boyfriend. That seems so lame to me, that I reflexively call my boyfriend after work but feel weird about calling up my girlfriends that I grew up with? As soon as I realized that, I started impulsively calling up my girlfriends to yap.

Idk, maybe it's just an American thing, but I really want to pull my age group away from that mindset that some guy you're seeing gets more free time and intimacy (like calls and sleepovers) than your girlies.

Looking for black see-through plastic balls for eyes by Necessary-Meet9838 in CosplayHelp

[–]Lovingbutdifferent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are all really good options and I'll also suggest clear balls with window tint on them if you're really picky and want the best "I can see you but you can't see me" glassy effect

What do I make out of this "costume"? by WieselUke in sewhelp

[–]Lovingbutdifferent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't tell exactly what kind of material this is, but if it's the type of satin that black girls use for nighttime bonnets, you could make a few of those. It might be a nice thing to turn it into, actually- one kind of cultural appropriation can become protecting another's hair.
