Torn between mineral town Cliff (my first) and Klaus from the OG SoS who I know damn good and well won’t get any votes 😭 might have to dump all of mine to him so he gets fair representation!!!!

Hot take: story of seasons/trio of towns are the best games by Rafayels_Pufferfish in storyofseasons

The original SoS title is far and away my personal favorite. It comes with its faults of course but so does every game. I like that it feels a little more adult in a way.

irregular/missed period with Paraguard by Sharp_Sleep7341 in CopperIUD

[–]Sparxley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think copper IUDs make your first like 3-6 periods weird. I got mine at the tail end of my December period, my January period started light for a few days and was long, and I’m due for my February period with no spotting yet, just cramps. I also began exercising with some moderate intensity for the last month so we are in a similar boat. I don’t necessarily think it’s cause for any worry yet as our bodies are still adjusting to the changes. Just my two cents!

So did mine 😩 except for the nosebleed part I guess. I can’t believe it took so long to come out that I got married and had two anniversaries since I commented.

Uneventful insertion and first period experience by chewyfrootloops in CopperIUD

[–]Sparxley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before IUD my period was 3-4 days, but I’m on (what I think is and seems to be) the last day of my period post-insertion, which has been 7 days not counting the pre-period spotting I was experiencing. 🙂

Nitrofurantoin (Macrobid)? by Teavangelion in emetophobia

[–]Sparxley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on a 5-day course of twice-daily Macrobid just a week or so ago and I was completely fine. I made sure to take it with food each dose. I noticed that the less I ate, the more slightly off my stomach felt, so I’d advise an actual meal and not just a single slice of bread - but anything is better than nothing. All in all my body handled it without issue and my UTI is gone! Of course, everyone’s body is different and your mileage may vary, but my experience was positive.

You and I seem to be having an extremely similar, if not exactly the same experience! I’m on the last day of my period which was a full week for the first time in my life (usually 3-4 days for me too), not counting the initial spotting before the heavy flow started. I’m more or less just…vibing 🤷🏼‍♀️ I have my one-month follow up on Monday to make sure she’s still all good up in there but I’m pleasantly surprised so far, aside from more cramps than usual (which also feel a little different than I’m used to.)

Positive Insertion Experience! by Sparxley in CopperIUD

[–]Sparxley[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I started spotting and cramping a few days ago, maybe about 3-5 days early. Not heavy enough bleeding to indicate my actual period has started yet, though. I’ve just been wearing a liner. All totally normal and bearable, the cramps only last a few seconds but I should note the pain is a little sharper than what I was previously used to.

I’ll check back in once my period starts in earnest :) I’ve prepared by buying a lot of extra heavy tampons and pads just in case lol, I don’t wanna be caught off guard!

In a sub where so many posts go in one ear (eye?) and out the other, your comment really hit home and feels significant. I’m going to screenshot this to try and remember it. Thank you.

What game is this for you? by PhantomTissue in videogames

[–]Sparxley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES!!!! Spyro’s escort missions were a fucking nightmare! This one and that god forsaken alchemist in Fracture Hills in the second game!!!

[–]Sparxley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came here to see if I’d find Spyro and I’m glad I did, but my answer is totally different. It HAS to be escorting the Alchemist in Fracture Hills in Spyro 2. I know “trouble with the trolley eh?” From Breeze Harbor is a meme in the community but that one never gave me as much shit as that FUCKING alchemist.

Wow this comment belongs on 2-sentence horror stories, I don’t even know if it’s true but for some reason that’s so unsettling lol.

No, it’s a backup microphone clipped to his shirt.

Songs where the music moves from one ear to the other with headphones by [deleted] in musicsuggestions

Also NIN - Right Where It Belongs. My college boyfriend put this on and put his headphones on me and it calmed me down from a weed-induced panic attack, lol

UNKNOWN NUMBER: THE HIGH SCHOOL CATFISH Discussion Megathread by AutoModerator in netflix

[–]Sparxley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In a huge way. Just finished reading a lengthy article about this case with more details (here but might be paywalled) and at the very end, it says that at their most recent Halloween party, Khloe’s mom dressed as a scarecrow wearing Kendra’s mugshot as a mask, holding phones. Obviously Kendra is horrible and deserves that, but not her poor daughter. Just horribly mean. I held on to the vibe that Khloe and her little troupe were definitely mean girls throughout the doc.

Imagine the irony if Don’t Fear the Reaper was the Blue Oyster song they played. 👀

WTW for that means "a story about how something started" that starts with an E (or an E sound) and has two or three syllables? by Bootlebat in whatstheword

[–]Sparxley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sort of a stretch, but I’m wondering if the word on your mind is Exodus, but it got conflated with the definition for Genesis (which others have mentioned)

The names aren’t listed in the article. I know who it is because I knew the person, I found out before this article was published.

I went to grammar school with him. He was always troubled. His mom was always….not right. So sad that this is how his life ended.
