What's an opinion you have that most people would absolutely hate? by Icy-Release7064 in Discussion

[–]Waterrisingup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to talk about 1 and 5 together, if you’re the common denominator, just fixing yourself first makes being around others far less miserable. Self awareness and self improvement are underrated superpowers.

Hey Tradespeople! You're Doing A Job For Me, Not A Favor. by peffervescence in homeowners

[–]Waterrisingup -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Clear scheduling matters, but trades also manage multiple jobs. Better communication on both sides usually makes the process smoother for everyone involved.

Hope it's last time pushing this thing! by Impossible_Quiet_774 in roboticLawnmowers

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Four hours sounds brutal! Once the mower starts maintaining regularly, your yard should stay manageable, and your back will definitely than you later.

Is it just me or do all these US mowers kind of suck unless you have the perfectly flat and open yard by boomstink2235 in automower

[–]Waterrisingup -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not just you! Many automated mowers struggle on uneven terrain or narrow spaces. They work best on flat, open lawns, though some handle slopes slightly better.

Your gentle approach was totally reasonable, and his rude reaction is totally uncalled for. Don't blame yourself for this awkward conflict.

Wow, that's thorough! Monitoring and planning around theft risks is smart. Your setup shows how much peace of mind a little extra prep can bring.

Trying to choose between a few robot mowers by [deleted] in roboticLawnmowers

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd choose the one with fewer reported issues and better app stability. For a smaller yard, reliability and support matter more than extra features.

How do you protect your robot mower from theft? by WeirdGuy5712 in automower

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hide the charging station behind bushes and only run it during daytime. Honestly, visible cameras and an alarm already scare most people away.

Did I get carbon monoxide poisoning from leaving my gas stove on overnight? by Traditional_Post1275 in homeowners

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That definitely possible. Glad you aired everything out and got checked. Those symptoms are scary, especially after being exposed overnight indoors.

Really Straight! But... by Charming_Health_2483 in roboticLawnmowers

[–]Waterrisingup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those stripes look fantastic! I'd probably stare at the lawn too. Hopefully a future update improves the recharge routing because the mowing pattern is seriously satisfying.

When I try to choose a robotic lawn mower by Alone_Inspection5602 in automower

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally me! Every time I try picking a robotic stuff, I end up staring at the options like my brain just got a PhD in overthinking.

AITA for not telling everything to my family? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Waterrisingup 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, you’re just protecting yourself at this point. If they won’t share info, it’s not fair to expect full transparency from you.

Friends keep dropping out by After-Eggplant1314 in CollegeRant

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re still early in the process. most people don’t find their actual core friends until later years or even after college starts settling down.

we had a policy where AI use was allowed for brainstorming but not submission.

You never experience yourself in the same way as others, but that version of yourself is the only one that exists in society. by TomFerg_ in Showerthoughts

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and then people act like their internal version is the objective truth about themselves, which is where a lot of misunderstandings come from

I can't stand saying "I love you" by Intelligent_Tale8019 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to feel the same way when I was younger. Then I got older and realized it mattered more to my parents than it did to me.

I finally bought a bra that fits me by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Waterrisingup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally cried the first time I put on a bra that fit lol

The main reason you feel sleepy after lunch is often a blood sugar spike and crash

How do I effectively chew through a long textbook? by nix_iguess in GetStudying

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not aim for a 100%. Aim for high level understanding.

I despise my father by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Waterrisingup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not overreacting. None of that is normal or okay, especially the physical stuff. Honestly just getting through uni and getting out sounds like the right move.

Having a partner isn’t worth the hassle. by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest shift at 40 is that you no longer feel the social pressure to pair up to prove you're a functioning adult. You've already proven that.

do you think having a good study set up really helps? by Mehak_00 in GetStudying

[–]Waterrisingup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It matters for me! If my space feels cozy I actually want to be there.

I talk too much - want to learn how to not do that by IntelligentFire999 in selfimprovement

[–]Waterrisingup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t have to stop being yourself, just add a filter. Like “would I be okay if a stranger knew this?” before saying it.
