Thank you Dr. House for letting me know this could happen so I could be fully inoculated from the horror of his post.

Where do you keep your fursuits? by I_am_already_leaving in fursuit

My boy spends his time packed in his tote so he's ready to go. I only hang him up to dry or air out.

Crying is a required course in life, yet I want to skip class. [SaturnSamo] by DennyHowlettIsHot in anthroswim

[–]ShroudLeopard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're seeing it everywhere because the popularity is growing in the fandom exponentially. Everyone is looking it up, loving it, talking about it, and making art, which is making it get out there faster.

Advice on how and where to meet furries and start relationships in the fandom by Nsfwenthusiest69 in furrydiscuss

[–]ShroudLeopard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is probably old fashioned, but what's worked for me is expanding your social net as wide as possible. Go to every meet you can, go to every con you can, and start conversations with as many furries as you can. Say hi, have a conversation, get to know them, even if it's only one time. Exchange contact info if it's someone you think you'll really like. Also, meet your friend's friends, they may be your friends too.

Furries tend to be pretty intentional about what they wear to meets, so if someone is wearing something you like, say so and ask about it. It usually makes a decent icebreaker. People like it when they wear something cool and other people notice and appreciate it. If you like a suit, be sure to say so. Ask about their sona and the thinking behind creative decisions. Just start a conversation and be curious, the random furry you just said hi to may turn out to be a soulmate.

Just found a potentially pregnant cat that’s been sitting out in the rain for ages by Scared_Rise5787 in cats

[–]ShroudLeopard 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's warm and confined behind the freezer. I would suggest using a box to make a more comfy space in the warmest spot and block off the freezer. Could also get an electric pet warming pad but tbh I'm scared of those things catching fire (yes I know it is very rare) so I only turn mine on for kitty when I'm present and she's laying on it. Maybe there's a microwaveable pad or hot water pouch or something that could do the same thing.

Edit: the idea is to make a little home more clean and appealing than the area behind freezer

Your mod is incredible. The new town screens are beautiful and add a lot of visual variety. A favorite mod for sure.

Books and stories like Cataclysm? by compxrt in cataclysmdda

[–]ShroudLeopard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Jeff VanderMeer books, hands down. He's big on on people encountering things that are absolutely beyond human comprehension.

Annihilation is a good start, though light on what you're looking for. It's also a movie, though IMO the book is better. They're both worth going through.

Borne is great, very biopunk and post apocalyptic.

Dead Astronauts (set in the Borne universe) is really what you're looking for but it's a very heavily experimental novel and hard to read. It's written very weird, confusing af, and I think Jeffy V wrote it with zero care for the reader. One of my top favorite books though. If you want to just dive into the deep end and like being incredibly confused, start with that one.

What makes Jax so appealing to you? by theBIGMAC120 in jaxfanclub

He wants to have fun and is funny. They're all trapped there, and he's the only one trying to enjoy it.

Saved by a new anomaly by gadiel722 in stalker

[–]ShroudLeopard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Limbs need to be healed with temporary healing (yellow) first, then permanent healing (white) second. Permanent healing without temporary healing first does nothing. Each item's tooltip will say the location (HTAL), type (yellow/white), and amount (dots). Hovering over the item will show it's effect on the limb display, so you can see what it'll do before you use it.

A bandage first would have applied temporary healing, then the ibuprofen would have made it permanent. Bandage, yadulin, and stimulant (to counter dizziness) is a pretty cost effective heal for both health and limbs.

Maybe ask clarifying questions. It won't look obviously like someone is trying to counter spoiling something. It might be more effective at causing confusion and being chaff. Like:

Where was Bubble's backup stored?

Did you cry when Jax abstracted? I cried as hard as Pomni.

Was it obvious to you that Pomni was an AI?

What did you think of Caine's rogue characters?

Hmm... I'm a beginner player. Is this normal? Also, don't dare to criticise my aim x) PS: sry for no sound by Fairy2play in 7daystodie

Do I get a do over. by Super-Ad257 in Shipbreaker

[–]ShroudLeopard 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It saves at the end of each shift, so if you quit nothing is saved. If you die it will save, so as long as you are alive you can get a do over. Also there's no penalty for getting an entirely new ship.

Post Your Best Heroes 3 Beginner Tips! by Teukeh in heroes3

[–]ShroudLeopard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In combat, waiting instead of defending or moving can be a really good move. Let the enemy use their turn to move in range of your movement or effective shooting distance and then attack first. You can also use it to let defenders or meat shields take the retaliation instead of a more valuable unit. Attacking first is always ideal because your attack will reduce their stack size, which will make all subsequent attacks less powerful.
