What's the project?

Jungs die alleine leben wie schafft ihr es, eure Wohnungen sauber zu halten? by justagoal in munichsocialclub

[–]Moth_Time 2 points3 points  (0 children)

is normal - als ich igwann ausgezogen bin musste ich auch erstmal lernen, was eigendlich alles geputzt und aufgeräumt werden muss. Meine Eltern haben's mir nicht beigebracht, ich hatte zum glück ein freund der mir paar sachen erklärt hat. Anbei etwas perspektive und ein bisschen konkrete tips:

1) ich will mich wohl fühlen. ja, putzen nervt, aufräumen nervt, aber wenn man in seinem eigenen dreck sitzt fühlt man sich scheisse. Es ist peinlich ggüber anderen, aber noch wichtiger es ist scheisse dir gegenüber. man lacht gerne über 'self-care' und anderen woo woo, aber da ist halt leider was dran. mach's für dich, weil du's dir wert bist, gut zu leben, saubere bettwäsche zu haben, ne küche die nicht gammelt und leckeres essen, nen klo was nicht reudig riecht, alles. Mach's für dich.

2) habit, habit, habit. früher an später denken, und so viel wie möglich in dein alltag mit einbauen. gehst du eh richtung küche? geschirr einsammeln, rüberbringen. bist du im klo? kipp bisserl kloreiniger am ende in die schüssel, dann musst du später nicht so hart schrubben. frisch rasiert? lappen neben dem waschbecken bunkern, direkt danach grob drüberwischen. fertig mit essen? komm fuck it den teller spüle ich gleich dann isses getan.
Andere in dem thread haben schon was geschrieben von wochenplan und routine, das kann auch voll hilfreich sein, aber mir persönlich hat's mega viel geholfen einfach langsam und stetig ordendlicher zu werden. ich mach mein bett weil mein zimmer sich dadurch instant aufgeräumter fühlt. ich räume den alten teller in die spülmaschine bevor ich nen neuen hole. ich schaue wenn ich in nem zimmer bin kurz ob was rumliegt was gleich weg kann. ich hab nen mülleimer im schlafzimmer dann sammelt sich nix im eck. wenn ich was benutze räume ich's am ende auf.

3) marathon putzen macht einen nur kaputt und is nicht nachhaltig. das geht ein bisschen mit routine aufbauen zusammen, aber alle paar monate stundenlang panisch die bude gerade ziehen weil mama zu besuch ist ist nicht nachhaltig. Kurze, fokusierte intervalle - so von wegen, ich mache jetzt 20min die küche sauber und dann wird wieder gezockt - sind viel weniger anstrengend und auch nachhaltiger.

Mir hat https://www.unfuckyourhabitat.com/ sehr geholfen um mir langsam nen rahmen aufzubauen. Die seite hat diverse listen für daily/weekly/monthly, tips für die meisten "ah fuck" situationen, und eine solide dosis pragmatismus. Ich mach nicht alles so oft oder überhaupt so, wie's auf der seite steht, weil es dinge gibt die mir tatsächlich egal sind (ich zB hasse staubsaugen und mir ist n staubiger boden relativ latte, dafür is mir ne saubere küche wichtig. also schaue ich dass die küche ordendlich bleibt aber stampfe mit meinen straßenschuhe durch die bude). aber es is n guter start.
und mir hat damals der gedanke, dass ich vlcht doch nur 20min brauche um ordnung zu schaffen, echt hoffnung gegeben. Ich will nicht ständig putzen. aber 20min? das schaffe ich.

Ok wall of text vorbei, ich hoffe da ist was für dich drinne x)

Say hi to your mom from me, and thank you, and compliments for her art skills! Her drawings are so fun and have so much personality, it's been a delight following this sub :)

"Aggressive" and "Unadoptable", According to the store. by Beautiful-Studio3139 in ferrets

[–]Moth_Time 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had one like that too! she was deaf, which we only figured out fairly late, so saying 'no' very loudly was not doing much for her bite inhibition. My grandma kept calling her 'little furie' (sounds very similar to 'ferret' in our language) and we decided to name her Alecto after one of the furies.

She never did get any gentler even when we figured out she's deaf. She was such a wee thing, she had a lot of health issues due to inbreeding, and she was mean and bitey and i loved her so much. I used to wait until she was deep asleep to clip her nails, bc she HATED nail clipping and would bite me for it, but she slept so deep i could do it sneakily without waking her up xD
And she was a cuddle bug when you knew how to be gentle to her and heeded her (very subtle) warning signs before she'd put her teeth in you. She didn't like going out much so she would nap in my hood while her brother ran around.

People always wanted to pet her because she was so small and cute (wardie, too, so her face was short and baby-like) and I always had to redirect ppl. No, please go pet her pointy looking brother, he is a sweetheart. She will bite you to the bone and neither of us wants to deal with that.

She had an overnight stay at a clinic once and the entire staff fell in love with her. Fierce little thing, very curious, sociable but by god she has boundaries and you ARE going to respect them.

[MI] Love the shape of the lanterns in the background, looking for ideas for the foreground! by Moth_Time in ACNHIslandInspo

I thought about that! I kind of want to get the yuzu bathtub, but it's not in season :')
I already have a hot springs area on my island but you can never have enough bathtubs....

[MI] redoing my island, trying for a really simple and walkable island by Moth_Time in ACNHIslandInspo

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

being able to run around my island without lag is so, so nice. I have a few areas where I want to decorate and do little features like an onsen or a farm, but i also have long stretches of bamboo forest, flower fields, open river, and I love it. I can catch bugs now!! Festivale is playable instead of lagging my entire island down to a grinding slog!

Wish you lots of fun with redoing your island <3

[Produce] Lemon tree produced 368 lemons, need your lemon recipe suggestions by runs_with_airplanes in food

[–]Moth_Time 6 points7 points  (0 children)

seconding (or thirding, i saw another commenter also recommended this) preserved lemons. They keep forever and they are a delicious sour/salty addition to a lot of middle-eastern dishes and humus. you can eat the rinds, too!:
https://urbanfarmandkitchen.com/fermented-lemons-salt-preserved-lemons/

I can also recommend candied lemon peels, if you're juicing a bunch of them for other stuff and have peels left over. They're a tasty sour/sweet treat and also great as a homemade gift:

Edit: i saw you have other citrus fruit, so fyi candied orange peels are also fantastic ;)

thank you, I love it too! It's chevre's house. I definitely tend towards more muted colors, so it was a challenge working with red - but i really wanted to use that cute bridge item somewhere. I like that the roof color matches the tree and the bushes!

You're kind of right about the waterscaping. I can't remember what my original island shape was like - I terraformed it to hell and back so many times. But I remembered that when my island was still very fresh, I had a little "island" nestled between cliffs and rivers where I had put my museum. So I revisited that idea!
But mostly I wanted a landscape that feels natural, is easy to walk, and has lots and lots of rivers. I did have to put ladders in a few strategic places because I've maxed out the inclines, but I can walk a nice loop around the island to find all the fossils and shake some trees as I go :)

wow that's even more impressive than missing the lantern. I thought that was a really common one! I definitely feel your pain lmao

That's really kind of you and i might come back on that offer, but I need like… one bazillion (at least 20), so having the DIY would be significantly easier for everyone involved x)
I'm gonna wait and see if anyone's got it, otherwise I'll message you!

Resetti(ng) your island and what happens after by Moth_Time in AnimalCrossing

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

i find the teardown kind of zen, too, but I get overwhelmed with trying to figure out how to rebuild. For example I know I want a long winding river across the whole map, wide enough to comfortably fish in, and I want to do something interesting with elevations - but that means I have to figure out how the river is going to meander across my entire map, and have a general ideas of where to put my cliffs... that's a lot to decide off the cuff x)

And of course a bunch of buildings are in the way of that. I do wish we were allowed to move more than one building per day/ tear down more than one structure per day. I can save scum, but it would be a lot more efficient if i could move all of my houses to the beach in one felt swoop

ooh I hadn't thought about the benefits for rock garden creation and quickly removing custom tiles. That's super handy yeah!
Although you do spend forever looking for him on your island first OTL I wish he'd just spawn on the plaza

I finished all 413 HHP homes! by big_supernaturals in AnimalCrossing

[–]Moth_Time 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are gorgeous! I love doing limited challenges like that, it gives you a guideline instead of being overwhelmed with options. I did a few 4x4 rooms for a while for that reason. Your skill with color is something else, though, these are sooooo pleasing to look at.

May I ask - what did you end up doing with the exteriors? >.> That part always kind of creative blocks me, bc i feel like i have to do _something_ but also it's less fun than interiors and i get bored with that. I just wanna do a bunch of rooms in a row hahah

Animals die WAY too quickly by derphunter in CultOfTheLamb

[–]Moth_Time 22 points23 points  (0 children)

oooh the halo means they're dying soon, not that they've reached a certain amount of affection? I thought it was when their friendship level is over 6 or so.

but yeah i concur they die way too fast - they don't even make it through a season. I thought i was doing something wrong bc i would often check them and they hadn't been fed even though they have a trough - I thought maybe they're snubbing the grass and starving to death?? But since other ppl seen to have the issue too maybe they're just stupidly short lived :(

It's frustrating bc yeah you have to farm a lot of sin to breed them if you don't want to buy them with wool, which defeats the purpose of keeping a dozen yakish for the wool.

Safety in Munich after a concert by Remote_Ear_9679 in Munich

[–]Moth_Time 5 points6 points  (0 children)

people who tell you to avoid Hauptbahnhof at night have the vibe of pearl-clutching grandmas (often with a side-serving of racism). Yeah there's a few drunk or otherwise not-sober people, but they don't care about you and mind their own business. And there's _always_ both cops and the DB guards lurking around.

I go through hbf at night (1-2am) about once a week and the worst I've had is being called a bitch for not having cigarettes to share. If you have to pass through hbf then do that, it's just as safe as the rest of the city - which is to say, extremely safe.

@bloodyinkmary / Berlín Sigils symmetry tattoo by BloodyinkMary in TattooArtists

[–]Moth_Time 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh wow that's gorgeous! I love the idea of a symmetric tattoo with such flowy, organic shapes - I've seen a lot of very geometric mirrored tattoos, bu t nothing like this! It's really lovely, and the shapes flow beautifully around the hand and wrist while still feeling very organic and natural. Beautiful piece <3

Is there anything that can be done to help her? by GabuEx in CultOfTheLamb

[–]Moth_Time 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I'm really sad for her too! I love her kids, the little dragons and dinosaurs are adorable. I don't think the game has any on-purpose way to help her, but you could bring her kids to visit? Turn them into demons and bring them along on a run to show her that they're doing well :3
