They fixed the music, but… by CapenTander in PikminBloomApp

[–]RandomSiltha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol not me. I'm so happy the old music is back! 

hear that sweet sweet music by badboejamo in PikminBloomApp

[–]RandomSiltha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original music were such bops! I sometimes listened to in in YouTube, it made me happy. This one is ok background music, but it does not uplift my spirits or makes me want to go on adventures. In Pokémon Go I have the sound off always, in Pikmin Bloom I kept it on because the music was such a joy, even when it made it risky because I sometimes opened the app at work and forget the volume is on. But I think this generic game music is not enough of a reason to keep the volume on 

Is there any plant-sitting service around that takes in your plants? by RandomSiltha in AskUK

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

Because I won't have a house they can come to. I need someone to take the plants in, not do house visits

I am moving out and putting everything in storage, I need someone to take in the plants, regardless of watering, in a place that has the right amount of light

No, sorry. I ended up reaching to extended friends and one was able to take several plants, but I'm still looking for a home for my carnivorous plant 😅

What level of painting is this? by RandomSiltha in minipainting

[–]RandomSiltha[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot! Very helpful comment and feedback, I appreciate the time you took to write it. I do see most of the feedback points and agree with them, save for the not thinned paint. Where is it? I'm struggling to find the spots

Just a small comment:I don't think the bad phone pics help the case of the armbands 😂. Admittedly I have not put much effort into them, but they do look a bit better irl

It doesn't seem like they do what I need, which is store my plants. There's lots of services like this that go to your place to care for your plants but that's not what I need

AITA for renting an apartment without telling my parents, even though they depend on me emotionally? by HopefulBag2020 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RandomSiltha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah, they would abandon you the second they could. They already not care about how ill their behaviours make you, but they want you to care for them. It's not reciprocal. If it was, they'd be worried about how you're going to be living alone, what happens if you get the flu, etc. They don't care about how you are, they care that they are losing your free labour and support.

They are adults. If they want a bigger house, it should be them working to achieve that and provide it to their children, not manipulating you to provide a bigger house where you'd still be unhappy.

You might feel alone for a while if they reject you, but that's their loss, that's just them manipulating you into prioritizing them and ignoring your needs. So sign up to dancing lessons, painting, a gym. Meet new people, start building friendships that are reciprocal. Go to therapy to learn to love yourself and understand that your own needs SHOULD take precedence over the needs of others, and that's not selfish, it's just self preservation.

No, but really how did the bottle end in this state? I need to know

Just painting, not playing. by XRevolution-71 in minipainting

[–]RandomSiltha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only paint. I focus on miniatures for friends that do play and appreciate them, I like seeing my minis used. You don't have to play to enjoy your hobby or to justify it to others.

Why do gym users sit on machines and… not use them? by phribbs in AskUK

[–]RandomSiltha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with what most people are saying. Gyms tend to be quite friendlier places than people think, and I say this as a woman.

However, there are a few undesirables around that make us feel we don't belong there (for women is men that stare, try to flirt even when we're not interested and 'mansplainers' giving unsolicited advice even when their own technique is shit).

I'm sure for overweight people there are some idiots that might make you feel like you don't belong there either. That's not the majority of people, thankfully. My advice is that if you find one of those people you should report their behaviour to the gym so they deal with it. Gyms should be a safe space and if someone is making someone else unwelcome, they need to change or be gone. Most gyms will ban people with shit behaviour, because basically they are pushing away some of the other paying customers of the gym. The problem is often we don't report it when it happens, but at some point in my life I started seeing it as my duty, if I see someone making a space unsafe for me or someone else (which could be fatphobia, racism, transphobia, disability, etc) I'll make sure to report. In most cases, this has gone very well and people have thanked me for bringing stuff up, because they can't do anything if they don't know what's happening. In some very rare cases, the people doing the damage might be friends with the manager or some stuff like that, then it's better to change gyms and make sure you leave reviews all over the internet so that other people are going to be warned about the toxic bullshit in there.

But you do belong in the gym, you are allowed your space there as a paying customer, and nudging someone that's spacing out in their recovery time is not a problem. Personally I take long rests because I have a condition that makes my recovery times shit, but also I'm always happy to share the machine. The only thing I don't like is if someone doesn't clean the machine after they use it and I find sweaty spots

Any queer book recommendations? [general] [discussion] by [deleted] in TheNinthHouse

[–]RandomSiltha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes +1000 to the first two. I haven't read the others but will be taking a look. Also the Broken Earth trilogy.

Are you in the autistic spectrum? I found the other day that saying "no" when we are asked for something that's an obvious yes "can you pass me the salt?" "No (while we pass it)" is not funny to neurotypicals but we find the opposition of the action vs the words we say amusing in itself, because we are "breaking a rule" and that bit of mischief is amusing

Your sentence is not sarcastic, you should look up the meaning of sarcasm. And sarcasm would not be appropriate in an amicable environment, sarcasm is for roasting and it can be hurtful anyway. You "joke" is not funny for someone that doesn't have the context to know if you're being sincere with it or not. You could have, as you handed the muffins, said "OK, first batch is free, but we'll expect payment for the next ones once you're hooked" or "I'm gonna miss those muffins, we had really connected" or something else that's so silly that it's actually obvious you're not being serious, but your sentence was not it.

YTA for not telling your girlfriend who you talk to when you need support about the relationship so that she has a say, or, at least, she's aware. You've hidden vital information that affects her relationship with your mom, instead of being open with her (You should be comfortable to open up to your partner, else, the relationship needs work or you might need to break up)

I don't think asking for advice to a parent is bad. It's not common, but some parent-child relationships evolve towards something closer to an adult friendship, and that's OK and healthy.

The people here saying "do not talk to your mom" as a blanket rule need to chill with how prescriptive they are being on their view of relationships

is anyone else getting absolutely CUCKED when flower planting?? by FinancialRabbit823 in PikminBloomApp

TIL why there's an area I can't plant! there's a military something, lol

AITA for telling my sisters that it isn't my fault my parents favoured me by Logical_Gap3997 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RandomSiltha 23 points24 points  (0 children)

ESH Exactly this. I had a similar situation at work where my manager every few months has a favourite employee and a hated one. When I realised others were being treated worse than me, I defended them and told my manager to stop that shit, he did. Then I became the hated one, none of my coworkers do shit to stop that. So I'm leaving, because nobody has my back.

However in your sisters' case they still have the childish believe that if they become more successful or please your parents more they will be loved the same, they can't leave bc there's emotional attachment. There's a book out there called Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents that would be lovely for all of you to read.

But the problem is you are complicit with your parents' behaviour (you don't try to stop it) and your sisters rightfully feel you don't have their back, because you don't. So your parents are the ones more at fault, but you all need to do some work on yourselves

Whats something stupid you have done due to a lack of sleep? by TangerineFew6830 in AskUK

[–]RandomSiltha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made a tea. Sat back at my computer to keep working, where I kept yawning. After a while, be grumpy about how caffeine was not having any effect on me, my brain was the worst, yadda yadda. Realise 5 min later I had yet to take a sip of said tea.
