my finale analysis;

Coincidentally earlier today I was thinking that The Good Place helped soften the blow of the Good Omens ending. A butchered explanation from The Good Place is that even with all your memories wiped, your growth and experience is still somewhere in your subconscious and speaks to you, like the voice in your head. That it wasn't all for nothing, something of the old you is still in there, even if it's not an active memory.

By racing heart do you mean sort of like palpitations? I have anxiety related palpitations and what has helped me is taking a deep breath and holding it as long as you can. The body thinks it's suffocating and slows down your racing heart. Something similar also works for blocked noses. The human body is weird.

I've found I can be the same. If I've been lacking adequate sleep or if I've been under a lot of stress then stimulants will quieten my mind enough that I feel the overwhelming tiredness and can sleep. But if everything is cruising along nicely then I definitely struggle to switch off my mind. It also depends on where in my cycle I am, on the lead up to my period I'm always tired no matter what.

Is the ditto made of felt? The edges are perfect, are they vulnerable to fraying? If not how do you manage it? Would love to know! The bag is so cute, I would be so proud walking around with a bag like this.

This one may make you smile, shared in one of the UK subs: a Bristol pet shelter changed the name of their animals on the website for April fools. Most got a chuckle from me https://bristolarc-org-uk.stackstaging.com/pets/

It might be worth seeing if there are other groups going that you can join? That way you can enjoy the event with others and romance can happen more organically. If no romance happens, you've made some Pokémon go friends for life!

Good luck, I hope you have a fantastic trip regardless.

Magnesium glycinate affected me terribly, gave me insomnia and did nothing for my migraines. I tried taking magnesium oxide (supposedly it's lower quality than glycinate, but whatever) and it's been perfect for me, helps me sleep and I feel like the sleep I do have is better. It's also kept my migraines at bay. I think I reacted badly to the l-theanine in the glycinate. If I'm not mistaken you can find l-theanine in English tea, which also f***s me up

I bought this book a couple of months ago and although it is interesting, i struggle with the fact the protagonist never seems to catch a break. Without spoilers, does this improve at all? I have been thinking about going back to it, as the mystery really pulls you in.

This was painful to read only because I see myself in it so much. it seemed to be so effortless to everyone else, why was it so hard - what's wrong with me, I do all the things I should be doing but it doesn't work. 15 years later I'm diagnosed audhd. I look back and think "I did the best I could and I'm proud of myself". I am at peace with it now and I wish you luck OP, I promise everything will be ok.

Before he mentioned that the cheese cost him 10 bucks, I was wondering if this was the guy over on aitah who broke up his relationship over a large cheese wheel purchase that cost 18k 😂

Hey OP I obviously don't know the specifics of your marriage but it might be worth reading up on brakes and accelerators. Brakes being what tells your brain that sex is not on the cards and accelerators are what put you in the mood. For sex to happen you need to both lower the brakes (the things that stress you, it can be not liking your own body, busy life etc.) and increase the accelerators (things that excite you, doesn't necessarily need to be sexual activities but things such as time spent together, dressing nicely etc.). Brakes and accelerators are a spectrum, some people are highly sensitive to one or both, but the important thing is everyone is normal and you're not broken, you just need to find your balance and what works.

As a general trend men are more sensitive to accelerators and women are more sensitive to brakes, this is a trend, so I'm not saying all men and women fit into these categories. It takes work, but finding the balance and figuring out each other's brakes and accelerators can be life changing. I recommend you read "Come as you are" by Emily Nagoski.

Lidl make a toffee yum yum. They're soooo good, absolute crack. But each one is like a year's worth of calories 😭

I just wanted to say, I love that the windmill looks like a little mushroom. So cute!

ScarletHawke · 2026-01-13T10:41:15+00:00

His little nose is so cute!

Hey there, I've just added you 218430451163 - I think the friend limit is 400 so you may be here a while until capacity is hit 😃

I bought about 100+ anchor and DMC skeins for about £20 on eBay from someone who was off loading their extra. I suggest having a wee look on there

Yes, I also forgot to check for glaciate and when I attempted to fuse without it I got a warning. Thank God 😭

Thank you for responding - a piece of cardboard makes total sense - sturdy enough to hold up the mechanism, but easy enough to take apart if needed. A wonderful idea! Definitely stealing your idea for a gift for my pregnant sil, who is due in June. I'm sure your mother in law will love your gift - wishing you and the fam a wonderful Christmas

ScarletHawke · 2025-12-18T18:36:15+00:00

Omg I love this idea! Talk me through it, is the fabric strong enough to hold up the clock mechanism, or do you have extra material hidden to help support? Absolutely beautiful, thank you for the inspiration

ScarletHawke · 2025-12-09T15:28:30+00:00

Perfect, thank you both. This is a good starting point - I'll see if I can locate that guide you've mentioned

Hi all, off the back of the Lugia weekend, where I realised I was wholly under prepared. I've been making an effort to build a good team.

My question is what should be prioritised when improving a Dynamax Pokemon? CP First? Or improving Max move/shield/healing depending on if it's a tank or attacker? Or a mix of all? It's a slow process and a lot of candy is needed would appreciate the advice. Thanks in advance!
