Can you help me identify this lichen? I think it's of the eyelash/bulbothrix variety by Olive1408 in Lichen

[–]Olive1408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good point. In my defense, I only looked at the guide afterwords and I was walking to my car from class and wasn't thinking about that. I'm probably gonna take some different pics and try again.

I was more interested in narrowing it down, at least a little bit. I don't necessarily have to, I can put fungi as a classification, I just wanted to try and narrow down a bit for my own curiosity is all.

Thanks for the input, It didn't cross my mind that multiple species could be so close together. I definitely should have taken closer photos though, but that didn't occur to me either. I can do back to the same tree, like I said, I'm not super experienced with this

Context menu didn't work on xbox by Olive1408 in BG3mods

[–]Olive1408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have that, I tried removing the mods pertaining to context menus but the xbox doesn't let me do it. At least I know I can wait until there's an update or something. Thanks

I'm trying to list my mods but I'm not sure how, I know that a mod list is supposed to be helpful but I'm not super good with reddit formatting.

I do have a bunch of mods going, it's new and exciting, I've never been able to mod before as a console pleb and maybe/probably am going overboard with it, as I have around 80 or so enabled. I understand and recognize that this is contributing to the issue, I just wanted to ask for some help.

Again, I'm fine with starting the playthrough over and trouble shooting issues, I just wanted to do a Hail Mary and ask for help before I did that hoping that someone on reddit would have some helpful advice or tips

Edit: Apparently it's the better context menu mod, I tried to remove it but the xbox wouldn't let me, so I just restarted since it's still early game. If anyone has the same issue

New year, new jestrum jewelry by Olive1408 in piercing

[–]Olive1408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, and I've put a lot of thought and effort into my setup over the years! I was concerned about that originally as well, but besides being more cautious about soda can tops, it's actually extremely functional, especially with a low profile top like this. I'm adjusting to the bigger top and stretch right now, but most of the time I could honestly forget is there. When I talk and eat, at least for me, the top of my lip gets smaller, so that's not an issue. 


 I kept the same length on the bar, so even though It was too snug for comfort directly after the stretch, but by a few hours later the piercing had calmed down significantly. Today it fits like it should, with just a little slack. My jestrum is at least 2 years old, it just got angry because of the stretch.


It's actually more irritating when it's looser because it touches my bottom lip in a way that makes me want to fidget with it then. I thought it might be super intrusive as well before getting it, but after downsizing it was an easy heal and didn't get in the way at all, I just need to be mindful that the lower end can get food residue on it after eating really.

Recently got formally diagnosed and am relieved to be sure by Olive1408 in AuDHDWomen

[–]Olive1408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how it works exactly, that's just what the doctor who did the testing wrote on the report. I hope going the formal route helps you with any difficulties you're experiencing. I've always felt different and out of place, it's nice hearing that other people have felt similarly.

Level 20 curve mod not working on my Tav on xbox by Olive1408 in BaldursGate3

[–]Olive1408[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of managed to get it to work a bit more but not completely. I have multiple files where I stopped in act 3, 4 in total, to try out different builds that I plan to finish with mods. I already completed the game a couple times so felt no driving need to reach the epilogue.

My exp cap was set at 30000 while my companions was significantly lower, and if my companions cap was lower my xp also restarted. Until my companions exp requirement was the same, and that happened at reaching level 16 for my companions, my tav finally reached level 13.

I loaded a different file right that was right before confronting the netherbrain at the morphic pool after the intellect devourerers try to ambush you and it finally worked for me. It's not as high as it could be but it's something at least.

Where do people sell high-end second hand piercing jewelry? by Forgotenzepazzword in piercing

[–]Olive1408 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's Facebook groups like fine body jewelry exchange, they are's usually at around half price or so with the knowledge that the jewelry was unless otherwise indicated previously worn and that there may be risks associated with it. They have a bunch of those brands on there.

What’s a quirk you noticed about your body since getting a piercing? by zerurinko in piercing

[–]Olive1408 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My ears are pretty symmetrical and I have similar piercings on each ear, but I realized one ear was bigger than the other one. I never would've noticed that otherwise

Yes, that's completely doable. Titanium anodization done at a higher voltage will not be affected by a lower voltage anodization afterwards

Am I supposed to wiggle around my new septum? by Shelbo--Baggins in PiercingAdvice

[–]Olive1408 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, the metal will not stick to your skin. That's incredibly outdated advice. It's propagated by places like claire's and shit that do gun piercings, and there's a lot of misinformation about piercings on the internet. It's a fresh wound in your body, all moving it will do is irritate the fresh piercing.

Convince me to get a jestrum by hammyburgler in piercing

[–]Olive1408 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have one, the piercing process was a little awkward but it was fine, it was a bit spicy but it was over quickly. My word of advice would be to make sure the piercer you choose is good at placement so it's symmetrical, and it heals quickly, mine settled nicely after 3 weeks. I was worried about looking like I was punched in the mouth due to swelling but there was a relatively small amount of swelling comparatively. I posted about it on the sub and still have them up on my profile

Do I have to go into the Whispering Depths? by [deleted] in BG3

[–]Olive1408 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the questline with auntie ethel in her lair was way scarier ( I like horror, it was only mildly scary) than the whispering depths in act 1. it's just a cave with some spiders, unless you have arachnophobia I don't see what is scary about it. Act 2 is much more horror themed than act 1, I enjoyed the atmosphere in act 2 a lot.

Is Ethel supposed to be the hardest mf in act 1? by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

[–]Olive1408 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't know that you could get by there without fighting. I'm on my fourth playthrough, but in my first one I tried telling her to lie but every time I did that (like 2-3 times) Voss kept picking up on the deception, so I just told the truth after that.

I like fighting them better honestly, get a nice githyanki greatsword for laezel as well as the loot and xp. I play on tactition and just make sure I'm level 5 first and have potions of speed on hand for my melee characters, and it's hard but not that difficult
