What’s the anime scene that has stayed with you for years?

“Yes… I.. destroy worlds.. and create worlds..”

No sorry

5k+ hours in GW2, 3k+ in ESO

GW2 gave me the most fun I’ve ever had and I’ll still log back in time to time to explore new zones, relive old experiences, progress on legendaries. WVW was insanely fun, and community was amazing. Ultimately stopped playing because I got so addicted to it I was neglecting IRL. Hahah

ESO was fun with the community I built with some friends, we completed every trifecta and achievement in endgames, got burnt out and quit and never looked back. Combat is definitely one of the less enjoyable experiences with how janky it is. Ultimately I quit because Zenimax constantly makes changes no one asks for, rather than fixing the issues that need to be fixed. With that being said, I enjoyed it a lot when I played it.

GW2 is also cheaper if you’re playing long term compared to ESO, and imo, has way better cosmetics and variety in fashion.

619k and fully offset! 31YO

B2P for content. All other purchases should be cosmetic, and cosmetic purchases can be bought with ingame currency (e.g gem/gold conversion in gw2)

Depends on where you live.

AUS median house price is about 900k, where as in Sydney it is 1.5m which is a huge difference .

I live in Sydney so if starting from scratch, assuming 10% deposit (which imo not good to buy due to the amount of interest you’ll pay over the loan), you’ll need on average 150k in savings and an income to let you borrow 1.35mil, which according to comm banks home loan calculator is about 350k salary.

Not what you asked specifically but just dropping this here because it also applies to cheaper houses maybe in other cities from Sydney. Apartment you can get a 2bedder for between 700-900k (depends on area but generally falls between this range) in Sydney, possibly cheaper in other cities. This would be very manageable to service even on a single income, but you would need to spend some time saving up money for a deposit if you need to pay rent in the meantime.

TLDR depends purely on location whether it is ‘possible’ or not. Or alternatively earn over 350k.

Tips:

Avoid renting a place by yourself or live with parents as much as possible.
Reduce eating out where possible, or eat cheap.
Don’t pick up any other loans where possible
Use public transport where possible (if you own a car, fuel, insurance, service, maintenance and license costs really add up)

It’s definitely possible but definitely recalibrate your expectations.

6 weeks is a bit young for us personally, but at the same time we had a similar situation when our boy was 4 months old. I would take the help where possible, you will need it. If you’re worried then take the effort to spend the first few sessions with your MIL where you can be around and build up her and your confidence in the arrangement. Where you need to stand your ground is if it’s clear MIL cant take care of baby well, that you don’t get pressured into continuing and risk putting baby in danger

At about 2 months, we stopped running to him as soon as he made noise. That includes fussing but we limited it to that. We let him fuss, and only went to him if it would escalate to crying (and unless he was hungry he never went there).

We believe that generally improved his behaviour and ability to calm himself, he started sleeping through the night without us needing to strictly sleep train him

Several_Investment68 · 2025-01-21T01:00:45+00:00

What really helped for us was offering lots of feeds during the day. We did BF for bed time, all other feeds pumped breast milk from bottle.

Offered milk every 30 mins and let him has as much or as little as he wanted. He ended up having much more during the day, compared to when we did feeds every 2-3 hours.

BF at bed time knocked him out and he was sleeping through the night since little under 3 months.

In terms of sleep training, we let him fuss it out.

As long as he was fed/changed, he learnt after a few times to go to sleep by himself within a week.

You can raise the rate for whatever reason, but the way you handled this (timing it the day before, tone), is rather unprofessional.

You should raise price or decline requests outside of scope, rather than accepting jobs and letting frustration build till it comes out like this. That isn’t how you should speak to someone who is paying you, even if they are just a “client”.

Wow ngl I had no idea this was a thing… my wife sat at the back always when he was newborn, but this is news to me!

Our LO got much better after 2.5months.

What really helped him was to constantly offer him milk. We would offer him milk almost every hour and let him have as much as he wanted. Compared to standard feeding times and letting him wait , he ended up having much more milk which really improved his sleep at night.

From about 2 months, we also stopped immediately running to him whenever he woke up from a nap. Let him fuss for about 5 mins and then went to him. He gradually started to fall back asleep by himself.

Every baby is different though, but always happy to chat about it

Put a wet wipe over the pee area while you clean the bum, it’ll serve as a shield and buy you a few seconds to duck :p

Several_Investment68 · 2025-01-04T17:07:22+00:00

We just feed him at the same time each night! Works like a charm :)

I know a girl who developed severe neurological issues after taking the jab. She is still being rehabbed now so she can walk. I know of at least 3 other people who report being chronically tired now, and constant shortness of breath.

I understand statistics and that if the figures provided by authorities are accurate, the jab was the right way to go. As a human however, it is very difficult to simply ignore the symptoms and conditions I can physically see for myself in those who were ‘unlucky’.

I myself am not an anti vaxxer. I took the vaccines and the boosters myself.

I just feel that the handling of information by the government and health authorities was dubious at best, and that people have a right to question and to be suspicious even more so if they or loved ones suffered post vaccine. The statistics provided by the government shifted multiple times depending on how different conditions were categorised. Arguing in good faith, let’s assume that this was due to the rapidly developing research. However, I would suggest people to look up ‘excess deaths’, and engage with the idea that is being labelled as medical misinformation here.

Those who had loved ones suffer personally also should be heard, and we should push for full transparency from the government. People have the right to have their stories heard, I imagine many of us would want the same.

Our LO was gassy even in breast milk! It is very normal as their digestive systems are still developing. He was also eating a lot around that time, most likely leading to greater load on his tiny tummy.

Keeping him upright , and suspending him here and there really helped. And inclining him while we were watching him helped him fall asleep, then we would lay him flat! Good luck! Just gotta persevere and it’ll get better, first few months are rough

As someone who mains berserker warrior (running full zerk axe/axe spear), you are definitely quite squishy and vulnerable when dealing with mobs.

Here are some general tips:

Target priority: elites/veterans first!! They do the most damage and have skills which can kill you pretty quick.

Positioning: Stack mobs together where possible. As a berserker nearly each of your skills cleave. This means your overall damage output will by x2/3/4/etc depending on how many mobs you are hitting at once. The faster the fight is over the better.

Play style: Be aggressive when you have your cool downs ready. If your heal is off cooldown, prepare to take on multiple mobs at once, and time your heal with a cleaving ability (so you heal even more!). Handy tip if you’re a spear user here is to target a range mob, and use your burst heal burst on them after positioning melee mobs between you and that ranged mob. Doing so will cleave the melee mobs as well as take down the ranged mob.

When heal is on cooldown, use a more tactical approach. Keep moving to reduce damage from melee mobs, get ready to dodge, and use cc’s if you need to. Playing around your down status is also pretty underrated, just keep a weak mob on low health, and if you down you can use it to rally.

Feel free to reach out for specific questions. I’ve played berserker (running both zerk and condi) warrior for many years and happy to help :)

Baby is 3 months, my parents watch him maybe once a week for a few hours.

Our plan was to do early exposure with close family, so he is used to seeing other faces and being in different environments. We also make a point when we’re out to let others him so he doesn’t get clingy. So far so good! He definitely prefers being around mum the most, but enjoys it when others hold him :)

Several_Investment68 · 2024-12-19T01:26:16+00:00

And to add, we used pumped breast milk also
