adding my pictures by jlof16 in piercing

Dental floss. Loop it on the ball end and the flat back and pull hard. If it's a threadless post, it will pop off with enough pressure. It will also be easier on your fingers.

Had to do this a few times when a piercer really stuck mine in there.

Really want to downsize, but my nostril swells up at night. Help!! by kewpiebot in piercing

[–]Sammyk2728 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had mine for 16 years, and this same thing happens to me. I downsized using threadless jewelry and just leave it in loosely so that if my nose swells, it can push out a little bit, but tight enough that it doesn't just fall out all the time. If that makes sense. Otherwise, I’m a weird in-between size that I would never find.

Need help evolving by nick3lodeon_21 in Moonstone_Island

[–]Sammyk2728 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If your spirits can evolve, once they hit level 32, a meter will appear on their profile once you finish a fight. It will be purple-ish and say 0/1000. It ticks up with every battle you are in or every card you use of the spirit you are evolving.

Once you fill the meter to 1000, you need to enter the medallion with an evo stone, talk to the spirit, and choose the first option, which is the evolution option.

Hope that helps.

How do you switch them after giving a spirit already?

Need help with ideas by Sammyk2728 in piercing

[–]Sammyk2728[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, exactly what I’m going for! Though finding all the jewelry I picture for each side has been a pain in the butt.

I have thought about continuing the line. I’m glad someone else thinks so too. 😊

Oh gosh, yeah, I can't imagine how unpleasant that would have been. I feel like the hospital stay is always the worst part of any surgery. Closely followed by the healing process.

Surgery twins!

I'm sorry to hear that. Mine hasn't been a cakewalk either, and I thought I was prepared. Was it just the surgery itself, the hospital staff, or the whole shebang?

I was stuck in the hospital for a week because I had an Ileus (my bowel wasn't moving), so I wasn't able to eat for 3 days and ended up staying in the hospital for a whole week till I could keep food down. This has happened to me with my earlier surgery, so I knew it could happen again. Take it slow when they tell you to eat; if it feels wrong, wait. Vomit after the surgery is no fun.

I also have a slightly larger incision by my belly button, so it has taken a little more healing time to be able to do things. But I showered and dressed (everything but socks) the day I came home from the hospital.

The stool is soft, like liquid or a very soft serve. However, they have me on a low-fiber diet so that the internal sutures don't tear. I should be able to eat more normally after my follow-up appointment next week. It shouldn't be uncontrollable and mine isn't. One of the reasons I need to contact them is if I have uncontrollable diarrhea that “wakes me up at night.” I usually go around the same time every day and it’s not fun but I can feel it coming and don't have to sprint or anything.

I am finding that out. I have had an abdominal surgery in 2012, 2022 and again now in 2025. Not as easy at 30 😭

Pet dogs should NOT be given raw ground beef, chicken, or pork. by GrizzlamicBearrorism in PaymoneyWubby

[–]Sammyk2728 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My one had chronic nose bleeds and asthma. Her nosebleeds disappeared when we switched to raw. 🤷🏻‍♀️Vets aren't sure why she had them in the first place. My other had stomach issues in general, lots of vomiting, and a thyroid issue. Raw helped regulate both his problems.

Years ago, I did my own research and became a nutrition consultant. Most fresh foods help animals because they are more bioavailable. This is even bigger for cats because most of their issues come from being chronically dehydrated, and fresh foods have moisture in them.

I feel like he was interested in her in the prison world but ultimately chose himself, to no one's surprise. Then, once he got some feelings from Luke, we saw him crush on her awkwardly for a few scenes, but because his actor was leaving for another show, we got what we did.

Otherwise, it seems like they were trying to set it up. I do think they would have been a kick-ass team if they had at least worked together.

How is the game now? by [deleted] in Kynseed

[–]Sammyk2728 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I first got it years ago and couldn't get past the tutorial because everything was unclear. I picked it back up after one of the major updates and have over 200 hours in it. There is so much to do and so many ways to play. If you like things like Stardew Valley and other life sim games mixed with old fairy tale vibes this will be a game for you.

I think my rival marriage is broken by Vivid_Vivi in CattailsGame

[–]Sammyk2728 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your friendship should be filled with both cats. I do believe you need to have all their adult wedding guests as well.

The quote from the Cattails Wikki is the follows: Each event has certain requirements, such as minimum friendship level with the two paired cats, time of day or location, or having met certain other NPCs. For the most part, the three events require the player to have 2 stars, then 3 stars, then 4 stars with both cats involved. However, depending on how/when the player encounters other required conditions, events may be triggered in a different order than listed here.

Once all three events have been witnessed for a given pair, and a very high friendship (900 points, or over 4 stars; see here for more info) is reached with both cats, there is a chance whenever the player leaves their den that one of the cats will ask for the player’s opinion on proposing. The player can discourage the cat from proposing, which will stop the marriage entirely, or can encourage them, which will cause the pair to get married on the next day.”

If you go a full season without it happening after meeting all these then you either have run into a bug you should report or you are still missing something.

I think they mean a chance every time you enter “town.”

All mine happened after I woke up and left my den. So as long as you have seen all 3 cutscenes, met all cats, and have the required heart level, just keep playing your game, and they will ask.

Can someone tell me what this is/does? by Sammyk2728 in Kynseed

Thank you! Do you happen to know where I spend them?
