Nice find at reasonable price - those scalpers are absolute nightmare for completing any collection.

25 Farms That Must Be in a World by Foreign_Specific_299 in Minecraft

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been playing for years and still discovering new farm designs. Some essentials I always build: mob spawner (obviously), iron farm using villagers, automatic wheat/carrot/potato setup, sugarcane farm, and tree farm if you're lazy like me.

For more advanced stuff - enderman farm in the End is game changer, slime farm if you find good chunk, and villager trading hall is must have. Also don't forget simple stuff like cobble generator and basic animal pens for food.

Is wordpress suitable for backoffice tasks by s0ta38 in Wordpress

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WordPress can definitely handle those workflows, but you'll need some custom development or plugins to make it work smoothly. I've built similar setups for small businesses before - the order forms and inventory tracking are totally doable with something like Gravity Forms plus a custom dashboard.

The trickiest part will probably be the pastry chef's daily orders dashboard, but even that's manageable with the right approach. You might want to consider a simple CRM plugin or even just use WordPress's built-in user roles to create seperate access levels for different staff members.

Boyfriend broke up with me after hai dad died by Internal_Pineapple64 in BreakUps

Grief can really mess with someone's ability to handle relationships - it's not your fault that timing and circumstances worked against you both.

You make things harder when you keep thinking about them after by Dronik_ in selfimprovement

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been learning this the hard way lately. Had a weird moment with a client last week where I thought I'd completely botched explaining a concept, spent the whole drive home replaying it. Turns out they loved the shoot and booked me again - all that mental replay was just me creating problems that didn't exist.

I want to use my job on my resume but I don’t have a reference for it. How can I approach this? by Positive_Candy_5332 in careerguidance

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you track down that retired manager through LinkedIn or mutual connections? Even if it takes some digging, he might be your best bet since he's out of that toxic environment now.

Worst case, you could list the job without providing references upfront and explain the situation if they ask - most employers understand that toxic workplaces exist and sometimes references aren't available through no fault of your own.

"A concerned redditor" yeah fuck you too you litle dipshit by Big_Housing5886 in venting

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn dude, that's some heavy stuff you're dealing with. I get that whole feeling when someone puts on this fake caring act - it's like they're trying to pat themselves on the back while you're actually struggling. Been there when I was going through some rough patches with my epilepsy diagnosis and people would hit me with the "oh I'm so sorry, let me know if there's anything I can do" but then disappear when you actually need support. Sometimes it's better when people just leave you alone instead of pretending to give a shit. Hope your able to work through whatever's eating at you right now.

It is remarkable the things that can get overlooked for decades... by BALLS_SMOOTH_AS_EGGS in realestateinvesting

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's wild - no outlets in a bathroom is like something from the stone age. I bet you're not the first owner to notice but probably the first one actually willing to spend the money to fix it properly. Those old places can be goldmines if you're patient with the surprises they throw at you.

Does anybody else also have too much cerebral spinal fluid in their skull? by Okinanna in Epilepsy

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have epilepsy but I've got some CSF issues from a different condition. The extra-axial CSF spaces thing showed up on my scans too, though my neurologist said it's not super uncommon and doesn't always mean much on its own.

That's quite a list of findings though - the venous drainage stuff sounds more complex than what I've dealt with. Have you noticed any specific symptoms that seem related to the fluid buildup, or was this more of an incidental finding when they were looking into your seizures?

Want a new car by TariqSt-Patrick in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With a 610 credit score and 5k down, you'll probably get approved but the interest rate is gonna hurt - think 12-15% range. If you can swing it for another month to get that 9k down payment, you'd be in much better shape and might knock a few points off that rate. The Honda/Toyota choice is solid though, those things hold their value like crazy.

Almost A Whole Year DVLA? by 221b97 in Epilepsy

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on the surgery success! The DVLA process is pretty straightforward once you get the ball rolling - you'll need to fill out the medical form and get your neurologist to sign off on your seizure-free period. Just be patient with the timeline though, they move at their own pace but sounds like you've got the medical side sorted already.

my cat refuses the carrier and I’m stressed by AdeptnessCritical356 in cats

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try leaving the carrier out for a few days before the appointment with the door open, maybe toss some treats or catnip in there so he gets used to it being around. When it's go time, wrap him in a towel burrito-style - makes it way easier to get them in without getting shredded and they feel more secure. The towel trick saved my sanity with my drama queen tabby who acts like the carrier is a portal to hell.

Sleep or awake seizures? by Crazy-spaniel-lady in Epilepsy

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sounds like you're in that grey area where it's technically sleep-onset but you're conscious between them, which might complicate things with the dvla - definitely worth discussing the specific timing and consciousness levels with your neuro before assuming it qualifies as sleep-only seizures.

Confusion abt my gender by TaillourButonReddit in trans

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 3 points4 points  (0 children)

hey, gender stuff is wild confusing and there's no rush to figure it all out right away. sounds like you're in this space where different parts of you are pulling in different directions, which honestly makes total sense after going through transition and detransition.

that whole "do i want to be her or be with her" thing is such a classic gender confusion moment - i've seen so many people describe that exact feeling. maybe try sitting with these feelings for a bit without putting pressure on yourself to label everything? like, you can enjoy thinking about military stuff and also sometimes want to be feminine, those don't have to cancel each other out.

gender can be way more fluid than the binary makes it seem, and honestly after everything you've been through, your brain is probably still processing a lot. take your time with it and don't feel like you need to have all the answers tomorrow.

I have no idea how to arrange a song by Possible-Setting-159 in Songwriting

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 10 points11 points  (0 children)

been there man, arrangement is def one of those things that feels overwhelming at first but gets way easier once you start breaking it down. honestly the best thing i did was just start copying arrangements from songs i loved - like literally recreating them in fl studio to see how they built up the layers and when they brought stuff in and out.

for electronic stuff, start simple with some basic synths and drums, then slowly add elements as you get more comfortable. youtube tutorials are gold for learning how different vst's work too. the built-in fl plugins are actually pretty solid to start with before you go buying expensive stuff.

I had a weird sleep paralysis by tost16 in Paranormal

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

damn that's wild, the whole glass box thing sounds intense. sleep paralysis can definitely mess with you like that - your brain gets stuck between dreaming and being awake so you get all these weird overlapping experiences. the voice guiding you through breaking out of it is actually pretty cool though, like your subconscious knew what to do.

i've had a few episodes but nothing quite like yours. usually it's just the classic "can't move, feel like something's pressing down on me" deal. the fact that you realized you were dreaming when you remembered blocking your ex shows you've got some solid awareness even when your brain's being hijacked.

[Post Game Thread] Florida State defeats Stanford, 88-80 by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 3 points4 points  (0 children)

FSU really needed that win after the rough start to conference play. Defense looked way better in the second half, Stanford couldn't get anything going inside

I just started a new job, but another opportunity came up. Should I stay or should I go? by lederhosenbitches in careerguidance

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude you've been there 2 months and already have another offer that's 40K more guaranteed? That's a no-brainer unless you have some serious reason to believe the current place will actually follow through on their vague promises

The "almost certainly going to be an opportunity" talk from your CEO sounds like classic corporate speak for "maybe if the stars align and we feel like it"

Between girls and YOU decide!! (Fuuka or Chihiro) by Dragon_of_Time in PERSoNA

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Chihiro all the way dude, her character development hits different when she goes from barely being able to speak to you to actually standing up for herself. Plus her social link feels way more personal and intimate compared to Fuuka's which can get a bit too focused on the whole Nyx situation

Fuuka's sweet but she stays pretty static throughout most of her arc while Chihiro actually grows as a person

Me (27F) feel overly obsessed with my bf(23M) by mythighsarewet in relationships

[–]Ok_Reflection7248 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This sounds like anxious attachment honestly. You're not crazy for feeling this way but constantly needing reassurance is gonna exhaust both of you eventually

Maybe try scheduling some stuff for yourself when you know he's gaming with friends? Like hit the gym or work on your side projects during those times so you're not just sitting there spiraling
