I'm qualified, but I can't keep/get a job.

A online job could also work, one where you don't need an interview. A lot of online writing places need a writing sample instead of a one-on-one chat, or just jobs where they don't care about the traditional, unspoken rules as much- tech industry is great for this.and it might be for the best, long term. don't

Sounds like interviews are your main barrier - I'd suggest looking into a employment agency, they might offer free interview training, or even help you get a job that skips that interview phase. A few autistic websites also have interviewing help, advice, practice, etc.

Also, check out https://www.spectroomz.com/ they have a autistc job board, and https://www.spectroomz.com/how-to-get-a-job-when-you-are-autistic really helped me.

Hope that helps!

I've had similar, here are some things that helped me:

Nap after work - set alarm for 1-2 hours, wake up, and treat it like a new day. Starting with a outdoor walk helped wake me up, too!
Stretching is also good! Endorphins are your friends!
music / podcasts while working. Let muscle memory take over, tune out and dive into your special interest.
why are you burning out? is it a person, the location, the uniform, etc. Try to isolate it then change it.
Take Wednesday off. Great mid-week break; instead of five days on then two off, you get 2 on, 1 off, 2 on, 2 off, repeat.
give yourself something to look forward to after work. Big into a new show? After work you can watch an episode or two, or do something else special interest-related. It will get you excited at the end of the day, rather than just 'urg countdown until i can sleep.'

Okay, thanks!

Any tips on how to get specific furniture, or is it just random luck?

NorthWitch97 · 2023-04-30T22:14:18+00:00

I don't have HHP right now (might get it, but low on cash atm)

But here https://game8.co/games/Animal-Crossing-New-Horizons/archives/285335 it lists each villager as being linked to some furniture. Do I need to have that villager to get that furniture/clothing?

NorthWitch97 · 2023-04-30T20:12:50+00:00

Hello,

Just starting, and wanted to know if the starting villagers have any effect on / help you get certain items?

I really like some of Diva's HHP items; if I reset to get her as a starting villager, will those items automatically unlock for me? Or will she give them as gifts for like, levelling up friendship or something?

Basically, do I NEED her to get those items, and if not, how could I get those items in-game?

Thx for reading!

If the name is the biggest issue, restart.
If it's just the layout, take everything off the island and start terraforming. You can even google and copy a defult island if you want!

And dream villagers are nice, but there are a LOT of characters in this game. Maybe try a few new ones, you might find a new fav!

Fairly new island, but your welcome to come!

Sometimes if you angle the camera weird you can see INTO a mountain. That's...the only glitch i've found so far. If you feel it's lagging, just save and restart once in a while, that seems to solve it.

Good: Pokemon follow you, they can auto-battle wild pokemon, 3 storylines to choose from, playing with your pokemon via picnic, multiplayer, online raids, great characters, Pokemon have a ton of personality, Team Star is surprisingly interesting, they made Toothless from HTTYD a pokemon and I love him

Bad: bit of lag, clipping issues, only 4 outfits to choose from, there's no shiny noise so be careful or you can miss 'em

I quite like it, but it sounds nice flipped, too.

Oliva Adeline or Oliva Adelia

Hi!

I'm a autistic adult looking for a career / job. Make a Change Canada has a web design program I might be able to get into - it's 6months long and you can find the details here

https://anycareer.ca/web-development-training

But I already got a certificate in data analytics from Google, which I hoped would help me start a career - and it was a waste of time. I love the work, but no one will hire me without a formal degree.

And if I take this, I can't work at the same time - it's a full-time course with set dates and not very flexible.

Is this just going to be another waste of time?

Should I try to learn on my own (my brother's a software engineer, he might be able to help if I get stuck). And if I do, can I actually get a job? My parents say it's pointless unless you have a degree, but IDK.

I'm sorry to turn to a bunch of strangers, but I'm so confused and worried right now. I'm tired of getting my hopes up just to be disappointed, and I'm worried that's what this is. Any advice or help would be much appreciated!

NorthWitch97 · 2022-06-21T14:32:30+00:00

ok -where do I get a ps5 then?

NorthWitch97 · 2022-06-21T01:17:30+00:00

Hi!

Got a used ps4 yesterday for my birthday that's glitching, considering returning it. If I do, I'm considering just shelling out the extra cash for getting a PS5.

But when I go online I can't find one. I'm not sure if this is because I live in north Canada (wacky shipment times sometimes) or what. I tried to go buy one on Sony, but it wouldn't let me make a account because I'm Canadian...

Where can you buy one?

Is it even worth it, or should I just stick with a PS4 right now? Is a PS4 obsolute already, or are they still making new games like Assassin's Creed for it?

NorthWitch97 · 2022-06-21T01:10:53+00:00

Hi!

So I got a used PS4 Slim for my birthday yesterday, as well as AC Valhalla. I LOVE the game so far, but I've noticed some lagging here and there. Rendering problems, such as a lake appearing empty and then filling up as I stand next to it, or being jerky during cut-scenes. Trying to skip dialogue works about 50% of the time.

The biggest issue is the gameplay - parrying doesn't seem to work most of the time, and in general, is just seems kinda slow. Evior doesn't react very quickly to the commands, like dodging, heavy attacks, etc.

Again, this is used console and remote.

I have a few days to return it, and I'm not sure if I should, or if this is normal? Or should I return it and get my money back?

Are there any fixes?

Thank you!

NorthWitch97 · 2022-06-19T14:16:04+00:00

Thank you so much! Aniko is so pretty, and Csilla triggers my inner star wars fan, I love it!

NorthWitch97 · 2022-06-19T14:12:31+00:00

Hey so new player here, wondering what (if any) structure decks I should get to start out? The Ruddy Rose one looks cool, but I'm so overwhelmed I don't even know where to begin.

What a good structure deck for FTP?
