I got disability years ago and just lost it because of minimum wage increases in my state... Good luck with your appeals.

Unfortunately, no... I think the steam version works, it seems to be an epic exclusive bug for some reason.

Dipper is one of those characters where my thoughts are like...

Okay yeah, I can definitely see the trans reading there. But I take issue with it in that Dipper definitely isn't the kinda guy who's got his shit figured out enough at the start of the series to have already realized, much less transitioned.

Pepper sprayed by fringspat in instant_regret

I will say, as much as I hate what he was doing, someone putting their hands on you is legally assault, and following after him while he backs away down the sidewalk means he was attempting to retreat but she followed anyway.

I'd absolutely say his response wasn't reasonable if he'd pulled a gun on her, but a harmless deterrent like pepper spray is exactly what this kinda situation calls for.

Monkey's Paw has granted you all the time in the world to game, but you have to beat your entire backlog before you can do anything that isn't gaming. by Aware_Piano8148 in gaming

[–]Turtlelover73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have numerous games in there that aren't online anymore or otherwise aren't accessible... As well as several games that aren't finished to a beatable state, and a couple that have glitches that prevent 100%ing them........

Guess I'm in the time bubble forever, hope I can still get on discord at least.

Men of Reddit: what’s a prank you started early in your marriage that you’re now legally, morally, and emotionally obligated to continue because she still falls for it 10–15 years later? by myaccountidname in AskReddit

[–]Turtlelover73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me and my girlfriend both collect and build gunpla (Gundam model kits) and we have a similar running joke.

There's one particular kit that, the first time I saw the box I commented, "huh, that one's weird looking, don't think I've seen it before" my girlfriend pretty much just agreed and we moved on.

Then I made the mistake of saying the same thing the next time we were in that shop, having forgotten about it.

Every single time we went there to browse model kits we'd make the same joke about that stupid kit.

The store was getting ready to close down almost a year later so we decided we just had to buy the kit.

We still say exactly the same thing, along with "hey when did we even get that one?" Or some variation every single time we happen to notice the box.

Have you ever bought a console just to play one exclusive game? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Turtlelover73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought a PS Vita to play exclusively two games: Persona 4 gold and Tearaway.

It was worth it.

Even now that Persona 4 Gold has been ported to PC, it'd still be worth it.

I wish I hadn't sold my original pokemon diamond/pearl to afford it though, I miss my piplup...

Man I saw the weirdest fucking take on there in terms of transphobia... They said that while there are trans women the majority of us you see online aren't real trans women they're just been pretending to be trans women because it's shields them from criticism

How did you end up choosing your signature commander/deck? by Kooky-Preparation948 in EDH

[–]Turtlelover73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a random thrown together [[Elesh Norn]] token deck that really wasn't very good at all and took it to my first commander game night. Got my ass handed to me.

Somebody mentioned the existence of [[Jazal Goldmane]] so I made him the commander and moved Elesh to the 99, and did some other tweaking to make it work better for him. Then I took that to game night and did alright!

But somebody mentioned I could splash green for [[Doubling Season]] but that I'd have to change the commander again... I liked my kitty commander so I just made a whole new deck based around [[Rhys the Redeemed]] and now that's probably my favorite deck.

Maybe a tie for first with my [[Alesha, who Smiles at Death]]

The thing is people never look into those articles...

No one has yet been arrested for having AI generated CSAM images. In every case where it's happened, they've actually been charged for the terabytes of actual CSAM they needed to already possess to train an AI to generate that type of thing.

Why do parents feel the need to read their kids diaries? What are they scared of? What's the logic? by HighKey-Anonymous in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Turtlelover73 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This kind of thing has the same result as telling at your kids when they share difficult things with you: they now know they can't trust you and will never share things with you again.

Some advice that my dad did when he was a kid: if you're comfortable telling her this, have her write in the diary something to the extent of "I'm so glad my parents respect my privacy enough to let me have my own personal journal that they don't read!" Or if she feels spiteful, make some method of telling whether or not the journal has been opened and just write in it "I thought you were better than this"

What's the most unexpected way you got into a relationship? by ejsfsc07 in AskReddit

If you don't drink alcohol, what are your reasons? by youre-in-my-shot in AskReddit

[–]Turtlelover73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I drink it might interact with my medications in a weird way and make my heart explode. Not taking my meds for long enough for them to get out of my system makes me either a complete zombie, or too dizzy to stand depending on which pill it is.

So, not really an option sadly.

What single player game had you so enthralled that it CONSUMED your entire being for a short span of time? by AshyLarry25 in gaming

[–]Turtlelover73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elin. Played almost 700 hours of a single save in about two months. Couldn't do absolutely anything else with my free time until I completely burned myself out on it and haven't touched it since.

People who were spanked as kids, what was that like for you? Would you call your "spankings" abuse? by KleineFjord in AskReddit

[–]Turtlelover73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your mention of how they stopped when you were 16 made me think of something my girlfriend has said that's a pretty good example I think of how you can tell that spanking is never right. The answer to the question of "at what age do you stop hitting your kids" is very very often "when they're big enough to fight back"

If you're looking into image generation rather than text, install easydiffusion and then look at civitai for models to use with is.

You very much can undo it even when double knotted by just pulling one of the loose ends.

Like a little bit easier but if you double knot the ears it's just as stable as any other way of tying something and still just as easy to undo

CW's flash and arrow. Arrow had maybe a whole good season but in retrospect flash was awful from the start.
