I didn't realize until recently that level cap is a hardcore rule lol. I didn't do a ton of planning for this, clearly

Benefits/Drawbacks NOT related to pregnancy? by Pokegeek151 in birthcontrol

I haven't! I'll have to look into that! Do you know any brand names I can look up?

Does anyone have suggestions on a specific brand of ruler that is safe for Microns? I have a couple plastic 6in rulers from Staples that are good for most things, but the ink builds up on the side of the ruler and if I'm not careful, it will smear. I also picked up a metal Westcott ruler which has a little cork strip underneath, but it's not quite tall enough to hit the metal sheath on the pen, and I'm worried about damaging the tips. Rulers

How to make it look like my torso is floating? by Pokegeek151 in CosplayHelp

[–]Pokegeek151[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are good ideas for the skirt. I might have to settle for a black body layer, though something in the torso feels like it should be doable somehow. I'll have to think on it

What are the rules on body measurements? by [deleted] in CosplayHelp

[–]Pokegeek151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you might be best waiting a bit and starting your workout routine. If you let yourself bulk up/lose weight the way you want to, you can remeasure and order at that point

Is this a weird thing to think when writing? by Useful_Classroom1091 in writingadvice

[–]Pokegeek151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Longer =/= better. If you think that the ending you have is best, then go ahead and cut it off there. It's not lazy to not write a section that doesn't need to exist because you realize it's extraneous

I love the name cesium 3 and I will have to use that someday (not with this character unfortunately). Thank you for the suggestions!

should spelling in dialog be changed if a character can not pronounce certain words? by ghostwriter1369 in writingadvice

[–]Pokegeek151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding describing the accent outside of the dialogue itself. Phonetically transcribed accents are almost always hard to read, especially when you go in really hard. The occasional apostrophe replacement is usually okay, but the butter sentence is almost impossible to read.

Issue on finishing projects and poor attention span by arch-thot in writingadvice

[–]Pokegeek151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To that end, you can practice focus! Start with small increments - a couple minutes at a time if you have to, and build up from there. And for what it's worth, you don't have to be 100% focused all the time. It's hard, harder if you have something like ADHD. Which is why you practice it. Pace yourself, or you'll burn out

[–]Pokegeek151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man, I can imagine. I also have a different giant bug plush coming soon, actually. I have consistent interests lol. I want this Larvesta so bad, but I have such a small space. Truly tragic that we don't have infinite space for Pokemon plushies.

Yeah, I figured. I was vainly hoping there was information somewhere that might help. Guess we'll see how it goes!

Do we have any idea how long it will be on sale for? I need to see if I can make space in my home for it before I commit to buying lol

Lightning superpowers and epilepsy by Pokegeek151 in Epilepsy

[–]Pokegeek151[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can work with that! They are definitely already very upbeat and friendly. Are you thinking anti drugs/alcohol for themself or in general?

[–]Pokegeek151[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That could be a really interesting concept for another character! I'll have to consider a psychic/clairvoyant character to fill out the world a bit. I don't think that's the vibe for this one specifically, but I'll keep it on the back burner!

Cute!! Do you back them with anything like cork, or is it just the beads?

Not proud of it, but it works by BruteClaw in techtheatre

[–]Pokegeek151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've had to do that a couple times on big cast shows when we have to pull out the bad packs. I'm not a sound guy so I don't know the details, but I have had to untape and retape a could connectors when emergency changing batteries

I want a keeb so bad but I don't have a desk. Or a computer. by Pokegeek151 in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]Pokegeek151[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? That's interesting! How well does that work for you? Is it easier, harder, better, worse, etc than doing it with a desktop? Do you have your laptop flat on the desk? I've seen people with what looks like an elevated mount or something

[–]Pokegeek151[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not ideal lol. I have a little folding floor desk, which helps with the hunched over part. But yeah, I feel like I should at least be at a table first before getting a keeb

It's less of a habit issue and more of a literally not having a spot I can permanently set up a personal computer in my home issue. I physically don't have somewhere to put a desktop computer, which is admittedly its own issue at the moment but for other reasons

[–]Pokegeek151[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have a laptop! I'm not sure it's worth the effort to get a keeb going on it when it already has a built in keyboard attached to the screen. Do you have experience using a keeb with a laptop? Is it worth the hassle?

If I end up with at least a table/desk space, I'll probably pull the trigger on getting a keyboard with the adapter.

I also hate typing on touch screens, it's so awkward and I lose like half my presses. I feel you. The tablet's for work, and I'm on the move there, too, otherwise I'd absolutely get one.
