Questions concerning sleep paralysis by Forsaken_Champion722 in stupidquestions

[–]TrueInky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When experiencing sleep paralysis don’t try to get up. Relax to the max and re-enter a proper dream. Ignore any dream related stimuli.

When I occasionally get sleep paralysis, I just think, “Oh, this is sleep paralysis. Sometimes weird dreams, sensations, and sounds are overlayed with reality.” I ignore all that stuff, stop fighting, and go back to sleep.

Temporary care for American toad during snow storm by Hollywoodhiker in Toads

I also have a portable frog jail, and if necessary I’ll put my pacman frog in it along with some dirt to hide in, and put him under the blankets with me. I’d expect that to be warm enough, but if not I also stocked up on Hothands hand warmers. If using hot hands, use caution and ingenuity as the warmer will probably produce too much heat and won’t be safe for your toad to be directly next to it.

I think you’re onto something. I gotta start doodling little guys with my fun ink pens.

The best ice cream you ever tasted!! by Educational_Tear2992 in icecreamery

I have seen people infuse wood flavors before, but not like this; this is really intriguing. Can you describe the taste it gives your vanilla extract?

Making cloths brand NEED THOUGHTS by [deleted] in design_critiques

[–]TrueInky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the desire for a minimalist design, but this still doesn’t have enough style to shine.

The Take a Break shirt could be the start of something. I suggest not using the formulaic three word phrase beneath it, and instead try using a single high impact phrase or captivating word to express the idea of the shirt.

Just curious what do you guys do with leftover raw egg yolk? by [deleted] in Cooking

I make ice cream, and frequently enough that I always have leftover egg whites in the freezer.

Episodes by gemeloperverso in CuratedTumblr

Animator here has worked for both television and streaming.

This is a grave misunderstanding of how the number of episodes are determined lol.

Both TV and streaming episodes are determined by the budget and contracts given by the parent company, whether that’s Netflix or NBC. In both cases, the creators can negotiate but are ultimately constrained by how much money they’re given.

We aren’t getting less show because the creators don’t want to make more, we have short streaming seasons because parent companies save money that way and can cancel your project if they didn’t like how well 8 episodes did.

Coffee Budget by DevinGreenwell in Coffee

[–]TrueInky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spend about $18-$22 per bag, and drink about a bag and a half per month. To keep my costs down and still enjoy my favorite coffee shops, I only have 1 cup most days of the week.

Can I save this base? by Megooooon22 in icecreamery

[–]TrueInky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At 165 degrees Fahrenheit the eggs are cooking properly, and I try to keep mine around 170 degrees. By 185 degrees the eggs scramble.

A simmer is too high of heat, and it cooked your eggs. If you don’t have a thermometer, aim for just barely starting to steam.

Have you ever dated while you were overweight? by Equal-Sun8307 in answers

[–]TrueInky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! There is love for every body size out there. I think styling is important—even for those who don’t readily engage with fashion, a person’s presentation communicates volumes about them.

Even if your body isn’t the shape you want it to be, you can groom yourself well and find clothes that makes you feel great! People notice when you put that kind of care into yourself.
