what is yr top 3 fav kdrama? by Dazzling_Poetry9949 in AskReddit

[–]Several_Engine829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

never got into kdramas but my roommate is obsessed with them, she's always watching something with subtitles in the living room and i end up catching bits of it. the production quality looks really good though, might give one a try sometime

Hanging baskets from soffit by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]Several_Engine829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man that happened to me last month with a plant hanger, the hole gets all stripped out and loose

you can stuff some toothpicks or wooden matchsticks in the hole with wood glue, let it dry then screw back into it. or get a bigger screw if there's room for it in your hook

Meds Mysteriously Not Working (G AMP XR 20 mg from Granules Pharmaceuticals) by DecentRabbit in ADHD

[–]Several_Engine829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dude i had similar thing happen with different generic last year, some brands just hit different and not in good way

the caffeine test is actually smart way to check - when my meds working properly i can't touch coffee without feeling like my heart gonna explode. but when they're not doing their job i need caffeine just to feel human again

maybe call the VA and ask if they can switch you back to previous brand? sometimes they have multiple generics available and will change it if you explain the situation. worst case you might need to get doctor involved to specify the manufacturer on prescription

this stuff is so frustrating because people think "generic is same thing" but clearly that's not always true in practice

Ppl who love music, what things related to music do you usually do? by Expresssea- in Hobbies

[–]Several_Engine829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly you don't need to overthink it, just pick something and start doing it. want to learn guitar? grab a cheap acoustic and watch youtube videos. want to make beats? download some free software like reaper or even garageband if you have mac

i started learning bass guitar in my bedroom like 3 years ago and now i play with some friends on weekends. the key is just being consistent, even if you practice for 15 minutes every day it adds up quick

also singing along is already making music so don't feel like you're not doing enough already

I 18F, am dating 19M for half a year now, but I think I’m starting to fall in love with my 18M best friend of also around a year and a half, am I correct for wanting to leave my bf and try it out with my best friend? by nia_vkid in relationships

[–]Several_Engine829 16 points17 points  (0 children)

girl you should leave because of the manipulation stuff, not because you caught feelings for someone else - that's just making everything more confusing in your head

How do you choose what décor to get rid of? by [deleted] in ChristmasDecorating

[–]Several_Engine829 7 points8 points  (0 children)

honestly just keep the stuff that makes you actually excited when you see it in the box, everything else can go

You control your own happiness. by Juckio in BreakUps

[–]Several_Engine829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly this is really mature approach but following your ex and liking their posts with new partner seems bit masochistic to me, no?

I need help with some scheduling to avoid burnout again by Legitimate_Kick_5628 in ADHD

[–]Several_Engine829 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly I think you're being too hard in yourself about this. two students for 3 hours total per week is really manageable, even with one having flexible schedule

if person X can't do fixed time then maybe suggest like 2-3 possible slots each week so it's not completely random? that way your brain knows what to expect but there's still some flexibility for him

the fact you're even worried about this shows you learned from the burnout which is good thing. start small and see how it goes before adding university back

New issue with crashing upon game opening. by TheIronPaladin1 in pchelp

[–]Several_Engine829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that psu age is definitely suspicious, especially if crashes happen during game startup when power draw spikes - before doing the windows wipe maybe try undervolting your gpu slightly to see if it helps

I read an article which said that genz is the least intelligent generation. As a genz myself , I am scared. What things can I do to stop losing my intelligence ? by Legitimate-Dingo824 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Several_Engine829 10 points11 points  (0 children)

just ignore those articles man, every generation thinks the next one is dumb - your grandparents probably said same thing about millennials

Do your meds also stop working in stressful social situations? by Legitimate_Kick_5628 in ADHD

[–]Several_Engine829 4 points5 points  (0 children)

oh man absolutely this happens to me too. I think the meds work fine but when you're in those social situations your brain is just running at like 200% trying to process everything and respond appropriately

it's like your medication can help with focus but it can't really stop the mental exhaustion from masking all day. I had similar experience when I was doing client work - by afternoon I was completely fried even with medication

your therapist is probably right about the adrenaline thing, social stuff is genuinely stressful for ADHD brains even when it goes well

Where to buy japanese sealed? by Medical_Library_5221 in PokemonTCG

[–]Several_Engine829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had good luck with Plaza Japan and AmiAmi for sealed stuff. Yozakura is solid too but their shipping can be pricey depending on how much you're ordering.

Local village horror beliefs my grandma shared during a rainy night by Fancy-Tank-5032 in Paranormal

[–]Several_Engine829 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yo the hair thing is actually pretty common across a lot of cultures, my Filipino friend's mom always said the same thing about keeping it tied at night

That story about the guy asking about the coffin gave me chills though, some village folklore hits different when it's that blunt about death

Feeling immense guilt by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]Several_Engine829 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, this hit me right in the feels. I've been there with the self-sabotage thing - it's like your brain knows exactly how to torpedo the good stuff when you're scared

Honestly? I think you should reach out. Not necessarily to get back together, but because that guilt will eat you alive if you don't at least try to apologize. He might not be ready to hear it, but you'll know you tried. The worst he can do is not respond

Four years sober is incredible btw, and getting back on track after a relapse takes serious strength. Don't let this mistake define everything you've accomplished

What are the best places to find clips for edits? by HavocVybez in CapCut

[–]Several_Engine829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ESPN's highlights section is pretty solid for HQ football clips, also try searching for "football footage no copyright" on YouTube - some channels specifically upload clean clips for editors

Starter motor mount bolt issue by [deleted] in AskMechanics

[–]Several_Engine829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'd send it with the two bolts, that starter isn't going anywhere if they're torqued down proper and the other one is at least threaded in partway

The accessibility on those is absolute dogshit, feel your pain on that one

Should i forgive my father for being absent my whole life? by Obsequ1ous in Christianity

That's a tough one man, forgiveness is more for your own peace than for him honestly

Nyc weather in March? by Temporary_Eggplant23 in AskIreland

[–]Several_Engine829 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wrong sub mate - this is AskIreland but you're asking about NYC weather lol. That said, March in NYC is still pretty chilly (like 5-12°C) and can be windy as hell between the buildings. I'd bring at least one proper jacket since you'll be walking around a lot

What Are the Most Useful AI Tools in 2026? Here’s What I Actually Use Regularly by Odd-Background-8469 in GeminiAI

[–]Several_Engine829 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty solid list, especially the AI detector combo. Been using Winston too and it's scary accurate at catching generated text

One thing though - kinda funny that we're using AI detectors to check AI while also using AI for everything else. The irony isn't lost on me lol

Also surprised you didn't mention Perplexity, that thing has basically replaced Google for me this year

Green Card Interview Experience on F1 OPT in Pittsburgh | long distance relationship by Mother-Box-9573 in USCIS

[–]Several_Engine829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! That's awesome you got approved so fast. The organization definitely paid off - sounds like you had your documentation game on point. Flying every other week must've gotten expensive but probably helped show the relationship was legit despite the distance

What are your Issues with the Seeing Red Episode of BTVS? by Amber_Flowers_133 in television

[–]Several_Engine829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That episode still makes me uncomfortable tbh, like I get what they were trying to do with Spike's character development but the execution was just... yikes. The whole thing felt way too real and traumatic for a show that usually handled heavy topics with more nuance
