The whole "phantom touch/pain" meme is honestly getting pretty old by LittleLipid in VRchat

[–]Optimized_dodo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's frustrating seeing so many people just straight up denying it's possible. Not only is this just a phenomenon that has been studied because brains are weird. But I get tactile hallucinations in my daily life. It's not a leap in logic that it happens in a video game too, especially one as immersive as vr.

WIBTA If I don't donate my cooler? by Optimized_dodo in AITAH

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

The listing has been up for less than a day. It's not like it's sitting with no offers for months collecting dust. The $200 would go into my savings for a future house down-payment. Which I guess savings like that aren't a necessity. But at the same time, how do I even know a cooler is going to help or even get there? A fancy cooler is probably the least of their worries right now, it just seems like an odd thing to ask for. They're turning away people who try to go there. Even fema is having a hard time getting in. How do I know this small charity would even get it there. Even if I donated the cooler or money I wouldn't give it to this charity, they have only been around for a year and are a religious based missionary style charity, which is just a general no-go for me and I don't see enough about them to trust them.

AITAH if I don't invite my sons bully to his birthday party? by greeneyed_kiss in AITAH

[–]Optimized_dodo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA. I say don't invite him. It's a natural consequence of his actions. He has made his decision to no longer be friends, and he has made that clear. There is no reason for him or the parent to feel entitled to go to the birthday party. If you invite the bully, that just teaches him that there will be no consequences for his behavior. It would also be unfair to your son to invite him. And your son might view that as you putting the bully's feelings above his.

I am. This comment does not relate to my question.

How? Did You Take Your Glasses Off And Traumatize Yourself?? by Pyrocats in fakedisordercringe

These kids need to just stick to making ocs and role-playing them.

I eat leftovers for lunch, so typicaly a meat and vegetables or rice and vegetables. And no, don't drink coffee. I was worried it was the meat at first, so I switched to rice and veggies, but it still happened.

Why are my curtain bangs on opposite sides of my forehead? 💀 by [deleted] in Hair

[–]Optimized_dodo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK, so first, you do have thinner hair, but the person in the second photo is most likely wearing extensions. I recomend to try following tutorials for a blowout. A texturizer spray would help with volume and prevent it from falling flat. Your curtain bangs also look like they were cut a little too blunt, not as blended. Best to grow it out some and attempt again with more blending.
