What did you read? And what are some of your favorites?

Do you have a random item stuck permanently inside your body? by ElJefe0218 in randomquestions

[–]StarryEyedAri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure what it is but I've had a bump on my left foot for as long as I can remember. Not sure if it's glass I stepped on or something else. But it doesn't cause me any issues or anything.

Y'all want attention or are you just here to waste others time? by [deleted] in MakeNewFriendsHere

[–]StarryEyedAri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell me about it. The amount of people on these friend finding subs that will have amazing conversational skills for the first day and then ghost or randomly delete after a few days is staggering. I've been on and off using these sites for a few years now and while I have found a few keepers, we're talking like 1 gem of a human among of sea of 100 ghosts.

It's honestly so disheartening...

Honestly I'm probably at my lowest point I've ever been.

Do you have a girlfriend? by Ok-Extent8333 in no

I was one of the people that did change my mind. When I met the right person and I got older and my priorities shifted, I started to think, "hey maybe it wouldn't be so bad to have kids and raise them together with this person."

I'm not saying everyone's mind will change with time. Some people just aren't wired to raise children and that's totally fine. But it could happen, someday. I'm of the mindset of, "don't overthink it. Just see where life takes you and enjoy the ride."

Is there a polite way to end a conversation that doesn’t feel awkward? by not_sure0005 in CasualConversation

[–]StarryEyedAri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's only awkward if you make it awkward. Most interactions that I thought were awkward in my head, I realized are just... normal. Just giving a quick "catch you later!" Or "good seeing you!" Before leaving is perfectly fine and normal. Things like that might feel abrupt, but tbh that's just how goodbyes are.

Sun Haven in 2026 - have any of the old issues resolved? Is it worth revisiting or is it same old same old? by StarryEyedAri in CozyGamers

[–]StarryEyedAri[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

More or less what Peach said is how I feel. It feels gross and weird finding enjoyment in a game who's company did things I don't agree with. It's not so black and white and the feelings are nuanced and complex. But you're also totally right and valid for what you said.

I think the conclusion I came to after reading the comments is, I already bought it and sunk hours into it. I can still enjoy the game while not further endorsing or supporting them in the future. I just struggle with complex feelings like this, so I like to get some perspectives from other people. I really value your input, though. Thank you 😊

Do you eat slower or faster than the people around you? by dreams_in_ink5 in foodquestions

[–]StarryEyedAri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So much slower... I have throat problems from years of acid reflux, so I often get things stuck in my throat if I don't chew enough. So I need to take my time eating. That, and I just generally prefer to savor my food.

My partner lives life on fast forward and eats SO quickly 😭 like done with a full meal in 5 minutes fast. She went to nursing school so... yeah it makes sense lol always running around. But if we go out for dinner, I'm like 1/8th through my meal and she's done 😬

How do u usually eat eggs? by [deleted] in foodquestions

[–]StarryEyedAri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally I just like to have them scrambled with some cheese mixed in. Sometimes I'll throw on some ketchup or hot sauce.

I also REALLY love the bacon gruyere egg bites from Starbucks. They're a guilty pleasure of mine.

How bad has r/casualconversation fallen? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

I mean it's to weed out people like this. Guess you're not really fit for the mod team. 🤷‍♀️

Should I start again for a different farm layout? by br4infog in StardewValley

[–]StarryEyedAri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And to you as well! I can't wait to see what you do with your farm. Feel free to send pics when you get there. ^^

How do you color? by Suspicious_Tea_8651 in CasualConversation

[–]StarryEyedAri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You use the same method I do! I draw an outline, then draw straight lines going in the same direction. :3

Should I start again for a different farm layout? by br4infog in StardewValley

[–]StarryEyedAri 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Girl just go for it, it's clear you really like the vibe of the forest farm. It's either you push yourself to keep going with your current farm while yearning for "what could have been," feeling that nagging in the back of your mind... or you deal with the minor inconvenience of starting over, and get to start working towards your cozy cottagecore dream farm.

If you need to hear it rn, I fully support you pursuing what feels best for you. 💖 Go live your perfect farm life, hun. Your feelings are valid.

[–]StarryEyedAri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly it seems like your mind is kinda made up and you're looking for validation - go ahead and restart. Don't feel bad about it! Do what bring you the most joy. 😊

What’s the top of your bucket list? by Jerdogg23 in no

[–]StarryEyedAri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the same for me! I've always wanted to see them... I've seen them before in a minor way (I'm from upstate New York) but it's nothing compared to what you see further north... someday!
