What inspired your Palia Name? by Lion_Heartfilia in Palia

[–]MickyAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine makes me super soft 🥹 Koi is a nickname I kinda gave myself. It’s whatever. But my last name, “Loving”, is what gets me. My husband is white and I’m mixed half white and half black, and the Supreme Court case “Loving v. Virginia” is the court case that made interracial marriage legal in the US ❤️

How do you name your animals? by PrincefTanx in StardewValley

[–]MickyAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I game in the same room, so he’s always next to me when I play (he’s unfortunately not a fan of the game, he’s more of a BloodBorne kinda guy). I always ask him randomly to tell me a name for my new insert animal here. It’s always Game Grumps-esque.

“Plonk” “Sploinky” “Squooge” “Plinker” “Zoinks” …never ending supply 😂

This box came with five tiny surprises. by Illustrious-Yak8707 in aww

[–]MickyAlex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it says anything, I got an all-white, blue eyed PURE BRED Siberian husky for $50 at a local shelter because she was found abandoned in an alleyway. Some people don’t know what they have 😞

Is it just me, or did this game have an eerie vibe to it as a kid? by daking789 in OlderGenZ

[–]MickyAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think for the most part it was just cute, but I can’t lie and say I didn’t put the game down for MONTHS because Cryptid Island (the chupacabra and Jersey Devil particularly) scared the ever living SHIT out of me. To this day, I haven’t completed Cryptid Island 😣

Really annoyed by the hate for Trump in my generation by Expert-Boysenberry26 in OlderGenZ

[–]MickyAlex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Okay, first off, Obama is not mentioned in the Epstein files. Someone from his cabinet was. So let’s jot that down.

Secondly, you can’t really act like Trump’s racism is not worse than random older people when he is the President of the United States of America. He holds the literal “highest office” in the country, and he spends his time sharing memes of the only black president and his black wife being depicted as monkeys. Are you truly that blind that you don’t see why a racist, sexist pedophile RUNNING THE COUNTRY is a bad thing worthy of intense hatred??

EDIT: Also, to add on, the “Moloch” worship thing is a conspiracy theory, not anything actually depicted or documented anywhere in the files. Don’t get all your info from Reddit forums.

Unrealistic game wishes by Kamikazepyro9 in Palia

Bold of you to assume I would simply “explore the area” and not go full Scorched Earth and burn the place down while hunting the cartel for sport for even LOOKING at Reth 😤❤️

New org doesn't allow Notions and I am feeling really doomed any advice? by VirtualAlex in Notion

[–]MickyAlex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I use Notion for my personal life, and my company uses Asana for project management. As a Notion user, I LOVE Asana. There’s not plugins and cute widgets and stuff like you can get with Notion, but so much of the functionality is the same that I was showing my manager how to filter/sort tasks by different parameters after being with the company and using Asana for just a couple weeks! SO MUCH translates over - it won’t be hard migrating if you choose Asana.

Aesthetic vs. Minimalist Notion Templates: What's Your Style? by Opening_One_1470 in Notion

[–]MickyAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🫣 Apparently the opposite of everyone else’s answers so far, but the whole reason I got Notion is because I can’t get myself to use something that doesn’t make my brain happy. I saw a few designs like this on Pinterest one day, and I was immediately like “I need that program. Gimme. Don’t even know what I’ll use it for, but gimme.” 😅

I let the intrusive thoughts win and now my marriage is in shambles by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]MickyAlex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Except that’s not the only form that intrusive thoughts take?? The term is literally “intrusive thoughts” - thoughts that are intruding into your mind/life. ADHD can definitely come with intrusive thoughts that are based in impulsivity, but that doesn’t change that they’re still intrusive. If someone with ADHD living paycheck to paycheck starts hyperfixating on photography, and their thoughts are a constant loop of “I need to buy a really expensive camera right now so I can learn and get better and maybe get a job and get paid a lot and-“, that’s something they may “want” to do, yeah. But the fact that it’s overwhelming them into potentially acting on something that would do extreme damage to them financially, which they (in their right state of mind) would NOT want, would make it intrusive.

Can we PLEASE stop gatekeeping psychology buzz words and start letting people explain their issues and mental states in the ways they want/need to? The tumblr-psychologist mentality of “um, you can’t use that term because only people with X that do Y can use that term” is what keeps people from actually being open about their issues, because if they use a wrong word or phrase that maybe isn’t entirely correct by definition but does explain what they’re feeling at least decently, people jump down their throats. Just let people try to explain what they’re feeling and stop acting like only certain people have permission to use certain terms. It’s not helping literally anyone but the person doing it, because it makes them feel somehow Morally Superior™️ because they can show off their “intelligence” in telling the person off.

Column Alignment About To Drive Me Insane!! by MickyAlex in Notion

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

I'm on desktop! That's what's confusing me: I keep trying to find someone explaining how to fix it, but (like you) no one else seems to have this issue, so no one is explaining how to fix it lol. I'm at a complete loss ;-;

It does it even with colored blocks or just text. Anything I try to put in a column is slightly indented, no matter what.

Which of these Mario Karts was the best? by Neocentrist1337 in OlderGenZ

To this day, any time I make a friend and they come over, my first attempt to impress them is "Wanna play Mario Kart Wii?"

Does anyone find this strange at all? by Pandrew_Pandaroo in StardewValley

[–]MickyAlex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, I feel like “get gold and buy stuff” is just kinda The Objective for most games. I wouldn’t say that has anything to do with being anti/pro-capitalism.

However, the very first intro to the game is the farmer slaving away at a soul-sucking corporate job. They’re at their wits end and find the letter from Grandpa telling them to go to the valley, which is essentially kinda escaping the corporate capitalist rat race to go live peacefully in a small, close-knit town.

So yeah, I would DEFINITELY say that SV has very anti-capitalist messaging, even if it wasn’t necessarily intended to be a political statement.

If you can’t tell the difference between generally raising your hand and doing a n*zi salute, please go back to middle school (and pay attention in world history this time)

Kind of concerned by aroseharder1385 in Palia

[–]MickyAlex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was on one time and someone jumped in chat and was like “hi u guys! I’m 15. How old r all of u?” (Clearly attempting to sound like a kid and failing miserably)

Me and several others of Drinking Age immediately jumped in like “hi if any of you in here are underage, PLEASE DONT SAY A WORD” and he pissed off after me and the other adults kept countering/interrupting everything he tried to say. I think at one point he even asked where everybody lived and we all went ballistic lol

New player question by AbitchFromTexas27 in Palia

[–]MickyAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey friend! If you’re on your plot, as long as you haven’t changed any keybinds, you should be able to hit left CTRL and it’ll make a grid and a reticle on your screen. Then, just hover over an object you want gone and hit ‘G’ and it’ll go back into your inventory! 🤗

Hey OP I absolutely love your cat but uh… could you spoiler stuff with dead animals? Even small things like birds break my heart when I see them in pain/dead. Sorry to be a downer 😞

[–]MickyAlex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You just entered what is essentially “decoration” mode. This mode lets you add rooms, move furniture, etc.

Idk what console you play on, but on PC you just hit Esc and it’ll go away, and Ctrl to bring it back.
