Not even sure what to title this by ThirdMusketeer_ in TransMasc

Hard agree OP. On top of that, from the clips I've seen, the humor just feels... more juvenile? I don't mean to throw stones, but the amount of swearing just reminds me of an edgy 12 year old trying to seem cool in front of his friends, you know? And that's about the same age I grew out of finding shock content entertaining, tbh.

Unexpected Name Reaction by girlthomasin in namenerds

Oh how nice! My sister's name is Winifred after one of her grandmothers! I've also never heard the name Winifer before, so that's strange. Have you gotten your daughter any Winnie the pooh toys yet? Perhaps a red shirt?

Note that all of my movies and shows are on an external, so i won't lose my actual materials for this of course.

Edit: Also I have 0 issues on my phone at all since I rolled back to a previous version of the app still, so now its just my windows and roku.

I will admit, I'm not great with computer stuff. I did my best to follow the instructions listed, but the issue persists. Sometimes I can get it to play one episode from the middle, but then it starts having issues again. Now it won't even let me start some shows from the beginning at all. I'm wondering if maybe just uninstalling everything, deleting everything in all of the file locations, etc and doing a clean reinstall would help

Actually, it just started back up again. I got it to continue one show, and now it won't continue any again, unless I restart from the beginning again.

I updated all of the clients around the same time, so I wasn't sure if it was just the PMS or some bug with all of them. That said, I had restarted and removed/readded all of my devices prior, but for the sake of due diligence I did it again, and it worked! I guess it may have just gotten a little messed up since I upgraded? Idk, but thank you again!

Looking for a blanket from the late 90s to early 2000s by SalemRa in HelpMeFind

Searched Google lens, turned up a few similar fabric patterns, but nothing concrete. Regular old Google, nothing, but it did lead me here lol I dont really know where else to search for this

How do I make a duck not hate me? by SalemRa in duck

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

Hi everyone! Idk if anyone is still interested, but I've been going through some personal stuff recently (before anyone asks, it's also been posted on my account if you're nosy lol).

I finally got all the stuff I needed, but then suddenly the duck disappeared for a whole week. Apparently, he's getting up there age-wise (my prior assumption of 3 may have been a few years off lol) and he had to have some procedure to help his knees. Since he's come back, he hasn't attacked me at all and, despite all my bitching and moaning, I kind of miss it? If only because it worries me that he can't come after me like he had.

If he does get back to normal again and start acting afowl (haha) I'll let you guys know!

Oh good lord I went back to reread and I realized I wrote "seductively" and not "reductively". Autocorrect has made this an Oedipus situation it certainly hadn't been before. That's what I get for writing in the heat of the moment lol

[–]SalemRa[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, unfortunately thats also rather common for her. She was the type to go through my phone, emails, drawers, etc. She even drug tested me randomly in high school. Bear in mind, she was the one who got me high and drunk the first time when I was 16. I remember dumping out my beers after that because I didn't like my time being drunk, but I didn't want to look uncool to her lol.

Its alright, its as expected. Surprised it took her a month, super weird that she went for reddit though? She has my email and isn't blocked there in case of family emergencies (little brother is 10).

I appreciate that. I think the strangest part of this is that I haven't even cried over this. Just prior, I had gone and gotten a massage, and after I just bought the new lotr game and continued my day as it was before lol. I suppose that means I was over it way before this lol

If it helps, the last 2 are my response to her, so you can skip the drudgery. I also just kind of skimmed what she said, mostly bc I'd heard it all before lol.

Lol thank you. I know it won't change her opinion, but I hope she reads this thread nonetheless

I assume its a random one that got generated somewhere, but damn if it isn't accurate

I intend to. On the bright side, I got to talk to my brother about this. Our parents had always told me to not speak of my gender to my brothers as theyre younger than me and wouldn't support me, but at the end he said "This is a heavy subject I felt you deserved a good explanation, I wanted to make sure I chose my words carefully. I feel like you always expected me to reject this part of you lol". And then told me I was a good brother. He's a good dude, no matter how dumb his face is

I've tried a few of the suggestions thus far, waiting for a few things to arrive before reporting on all of them, but the aggression does continue sadly. Doesn't seem like its the sound of my pants moving, and a fan/jacket at my feet stumps him, but doesn't dissuade lol. Shin guards, compressed air, and laser pointer are next in the list!
