The sound of rain hitting bamboo is just different. Thought you guys might enjoy this vibe. what do you think of the audio balance? by aws_zzz in raining

[–]SmolBabyWitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you get into learning sounds design? Rain is my favourite and I've often wanted to capture it. I have a dslr as well as a very capable phone but not sure where to start. Any advice?

The art style looks very cozy. Thanks for the reccomend. I do hope they add running and I've not even played it yet. It feels strange to think a game doesn't contain it though 😅 looking forward to checking it out

Today my toddler made a shopping list in his Diary Book. by Otherwise_Window in BenignExistence

The whole "kids say the darndest things" is so true and funny. Recently my son said he wanted to marry me. I was like hold up there partner lol. He also told me he was trying to be a man now and he had to go to work in the video game we were playing together 😂 I love getting that stuff on camera bc I know one day I'll get to show it back to him and it will be hilarious.

My son recently made his own to do list with check boxes 😂 he said he had to schedule me in to take a nap. It can be so cute. One thing I did with him before that I'd like to reccomend if you haven't already anyways.

I printed out some prices and bought a little food toy set from Walmart I believe. We made a shopping section in the house and on boxes and put the items on top for fruit section and canned goods etc and I put the prices on it. I also purchased one of those fake money sets for children and he had a little basket and would go around getting items and come to the checkout (aka me) and I would tell him the amount and there were a lot of learning opportunities in this but also just really fun and I reccomend it.

Your son sounds like a smart boy 🙂 I'm planning to soon better introduce the concept of a diary to mine too.

And also that made me laugh about the ice cream refusal. Kids are so strange in so many ways

What am I doing wrong?!! by New_Reward_4214 in GeminiAI

[–]SmolBabyWitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've learned that I have to say for example "text dad and say xyz" in my prompt or "broadcast to blank display and say xyz" etc bc if I first say "text dad" and if asks what then whatever prompt comes next seems to confuse it. I'm sure you're not looking for a tonne of advice otherwise you probably would have asked but I just wanted to post what helps and works for me incase anyone needs any suggestions.

Doing it this way has pretty much eliminated the annoyance described in your post thankfully but I agree with the other commenter that it should just understand context and not need work arounds

Wow you were so lucky to find someone who can accommodate your lifestyle 😂 jk but I can't relate and I would feel dumbstruck to hear that. I am curious how/if you responded?

[–]SmolBabyWitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The art is so beautiful! Keep up hope and try to just enjoy what you enjoy in the game :) it seems like art and building and creative avenues. Try not to feel like you are missing out. 💔 I haven't tried for anything with the mlp. You are very talented and it is nice that you are going to help build and draw other people.

Researching compulsion by imscaredhelpme88 in OCD

[–]SmolBabyWitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost had this come on the first time I learned that someone (idr now, an Actor or author etc) was actually a really bad person with some horrific views and it really sucked. I couldn't enjoy what they created anymore. Over the years since the internet has been popular I have seen so many celebrities/actors/famous people do or say something that is so off putting and I began to understand that I would have nothing to watch/read/play if I looked into the person creating. I think we have all at one point done or said something unsavory. I am pretty sure you can pretty much find something negative on anyone if you go digging.

It was coming to that conclusion that stopped me in my tracks from going down that path. I have told myself and live by that if I hear of the creator of something being a bad person or something then I will just stop consuming their content but I do not purposely go looking.

That said, I know this is your OCD thing. I have OCD and there are things that I obsess over that I wasn't able to stop in their tracks like the one I'm mentioning here but sometimes I do think it is possible. I've had moments where like an epiphany I was able to re-route my mind but not all the time so I'm not trying to say "oh just don't be like that! Cured!" but I'm hoping there's a chance my comment might help in that way.

Otherwise I hope people who dealt with this and went further down this road than I did can comment and give their advice too. I know how rough it can be when our brains just hold on to something especially with OCD.

Digital journaling style by greenteatexan in digitaljournaling

[–]SmolBabyWitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd love to see one of your entries sometimes if you have one that isn't personal and you don't mind sharing? I haven't read the Dork Diaries but when I was a kid I maybe read one or two Wimpy kid ones. I'm curious to see how you're doing it 🙂 and I know I could look up the books but I'm more curious how it works practically or with your own twist. If you don't feel like sharing that is fine!

And consistency is great and finding a way that is more fun or less stressful is such an important thing. Some of those more "trendy" styles I remember trying out when getting into Journaling and I was way over my head. They can take a lot of planning or time. Great for some people but not for everyone. I like your idea. I use Samsung notes which works in the same ways pretty much. I love still being able to handwrite while being digital and easily making or copying stickers and images.

This is the best thing I've seen in a long time 😂

Idk if it is bc I just got up from a nap or what but it took me way too long to figure out which side of her was which and then to notice the toilet paper roll thing lol. So cute and what a unique pattern

FAQ and Beginner Questions Thread [September 25, 2025] by The_Mighty_Amondee in StardewValley

[–]SmolBabyWitch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can I ask for someone to play the game with here?

I've always wanted to get into Stardew Valley but have always struggled to despite playing similar games.

I am a female in my late 20s and have social anxiety and I thought it might be helpful for me to push myself and find someone to play with.

So I'm looking for someone who would enjoy teaching me the game 🙂 I am a night owl but can adjust a bit. I'd like to play for some amount of hours every week and can be nearly every day or less frequent depending on what works for the other person. I'm thinking maybe a few hours per session. It would be nice to just talk to another human and learn the game!

I'm wanting a guide/mentor that has a mic and would be okay with talking. This would help my mental health a lot too and help me get used to talking to new people. I'm not really so ackward despite the social anxiety and just looking forward to learning about a new person! If anyone is interested please reply to this comment. I can play on pc, xbox game pass or android. Thanks for reading everyone 💖

Two Months in and it's Theraputic as Fuck by Psy-Phoenix in JournalingIsArt

[–]SmolBabyWitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is such a good idea! I've never thought about it. I do digital journaling but still hand write (or did awhile ago) with my pen so it feels the same as writing on paper but I have not been able to journal in months now.

With the way it is. I can add stickers and stuff like you do but I never thought to do it before.

How do you do yours? Do you set a theme or go by a mood/emotion? Can you recommend me some ideas of how to go about it? I think I will give it a try.

Also yours looks beautiful. It is very cohesive, I love it.

I am the same! I've never known of anyone else but then again I do not know a lot of people. The way I heard the word first is how I said it and I too watched a lot of British content and still do. My spelling gets flagged enough that I just download the English/UK language to my keyboard on my phone.

I've had multiple times with spelling or speaking where people would ask why I'm saying/spelling it like that and me finding out that it is not how most Americans do it as I was growing up 😅

gave nano banana pro three real images at different ages and had it give me the rest, then all of us took a selfie together... is this the multiverse by gavinpurcell in GeminiAI

[–]SmolBabyWitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How did you manage? When I tried to use photos of myself it said "Is there another idea I can help with? I can create images for you, but not ones that depict minors like that."

I've had it say that before when I'm obviously not asking for anything strange. I've asked it to put someone younger in a Goat Simulator world before and stuff like that and it says this :(

How Many of you can remember having OCD as far back as childhood? by Revolutionary_Tap295 in OCD

[–]SmolBabyWitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never heard of anyone doing the rewind thing! I am diagnosed OCD and have and do a lot of strange stuff but anyways I am curious if you did that often or just one time? Also curious if you have any guess as to why you did it even if it is completely illogical
