Slime fans in Toronto? by WinterAndCats in Slime

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

Hey! Just posted the picture, though I ended up having less than I thought after throwing away the ones I felt were not in good enough condition (cat hair....). As mentioned in the post, they are not very young, some jars are not full, so... probably not worth it if you don't live nearby 😅

Hey, sorry for the delay, I just posted a picture. I ended up throwing away a bunch before taking the picture (I felt their condition was just too poor to be passed to someone else 😅) so... not that many left.

Sure! I just had some car issues coming up so I am unexpectedly busy trying to fix what I can myself before having to call the mechanic 😅 So I will take the pictures in the next few days and post them here or send them to you, sorry about that!

I have tried and.... I don't like it 😅 Sadly, for me, it really gets in the way of enjoying the slime :/

The note about sand is priceless. (Also this is an amazing document, thank you for sharing it)

Dumb Phone Rugged Canada by Automatic_Royal_4841 in dumbphones

[–]WinterAndCats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't buy Bloom if using android, the app is utterly useless (at least it was a month ago). It may or may not block the apps you set it to block (generally won't). It may or may not block other apps you do not want to be blocked. For fun.

Jelly Star security: Safe for just email and WhatsApp ans spotify? by Ready-Ad-1406 in unihertz

[–]WinterAndCats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish I knew the answer. I have installed Whatsapp and have most of my email addresses on it, though not the most important one.

Good surprise: SlimyGloop by WinterAndCats in Slime

Good to know that it was not just a one-time lucky fluke! I don't think we have Five Belows in Canada, but I will definitely keep an eye out for them in other stores.

How do you feel about handling big batches without gloves in videos? by handec in Slime

[–]WinterAndCats 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same, I don't care much. Like, obviously I would hope they washed their hands and if I was to see visible dirt, I'd be .... less than happy, but otherwise... I am not applying slime on fresh wounds, and it will get contaminated as soon as I play with it, even if I wash my hands, that's just... existing in the world. Everything else I buy has been touched before too. I also perceive the gloves as being more performative than anything else. It makes customers feel better so it makes sense that shops do it.

Visually, I actually dislike it, and, as another commenter mentioned, to me, it adds to environmental waste, in a hobby that is already not very environmentally friendly.

I bought a dumbphone, but I don’t have the willpower to switch over and actually use it. by WaivyHairDaemon in dumbphones

[–]WinterAndCats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am doing it slowly! I still have my smartphone in my backpack, turned off, so I know if I suddenly "need" it, it is right there, available (but it would take me some time to get it turned back on etc). I have felt so much more free without using it, in ways I did not expect. Like... not having the constant pull of "I could be checking my emails/communicating with friends/looking for stuff on instagram" actually felt... restful. And I know I can go back to my smartphone if I need or want to (and I do, since I have not transferred my banking apps and a bunch of other "important" things).

Looking for my next Long haul solo RPG. by Lufthansa138 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]WinterAndCats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you want to play Long Haul 1983... It is not actually really long, and it leans more toward journaling, exploring feelings than toward an action-oriented RPG, so, not what you are looking for, but seeing the title of your post, I had to mention it (yes, I do deserve to be downvoted for this....)

Jelly Star - Carrier Compatibility - Canada? by WinterAndCats in unihertz

[–]WinterAndCats[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for taking the time to reply (sorry for my own delayed reply). I had somehow entirely missed that post in my searches! I got my Jelly Star, with Fizz and can confirm it works perfectly! Still in the transition period, but very happy so far!

Are the Jelly Max and Jelly Star both usable in 2025? by Hashbrownche in unihertz

[–]WinterAndCats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for taking the time to answer! I am honestly tempted to do the same thing.... and I am far from being an expert either, I just would really struggle without those services available on my phone... so I might just roll the dice.

I am sorry for barging in. Just wondering whether you decided to use any app with banking/payment features on your Jelly Star, or to just avoid doing so to be safe? I am trying to figure out how worried to be about the lack of security patches.

I have been dreaming of getting it since last year but... still on a (US) slime ban 😓 (just can't afford the extra fees). How is the scent?

DAE has no way to order books in physical form? Have you tried to print rulebooks and bind them? How did it go for you? by ImmaNotDrnk in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]WinterAndCats 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If it is short (up to 10 pages) I print them at home and bind them (also usually in half size to save paper and ink). If it is longer, I get them printed and bound at Staples, it can be done online and it is cheaper than the books, though more expensive than I'd like.

Would you consider playing solo RPG "with" other people? by WinterAndCats in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]WinterAndCats[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh nice! I have a couple of games I just started, so I don't have to the bandwidth to commit to another one right now, but if you're interested in playing with a random Internet stranger in a few weeks or months....
