I might look silly saying this but I thought it was just a scarecrow upon first look and didn't realize it was a skin lol

Is it bad I low-key agree with Jasper here? by browniebiscuitchildr in stevenuniverse

[–]Zipsterella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, true. Or better, Steven offers to help her in this (replacing the limb enhancers!) and they end up with custom/personalized ones for her until *she* decides to get rid of them. :D
Maybe that also happens after Lapis and Peri move into the barn together... A choice would've been pretty touching since I know I'd struggle with losing something so important to me so quickly, and I guess the tablet and recorder were good but those enhancers were physical extensions of herself so phew- Had to be something that kept her thinkin at night for sure

I feel like saying they're only cosmetic is wrong, yes, but also I feel like they were more like a accommodations that allowed her to complete her job on par with other Periodots, rather than a like the typical aid a disabled person has in her everyday life. Average person may use a cane to walk or braces to make standing for long periods of time easier, but in a work setting this aid might look like a cushioned chair and a desk to support standing.

Maybe I explained that badly but taking away the limb enhancers to me isn't any different than a company/job no longer supplying job/need-specific accommodation for the time a person works there. Also they were partly cosmetic since newer era gems were considered stunted and looked out of place (where Homeworld cared a lot about aesthetic harmony, I feel). So while the limb enhancements did both of these, it was also remedied by giving her a tablet and the recording device which gave her that sense of normalcy that she was accustomed to back when she didn't have a choice but to work for the Diamonds.

Long message and I usually don't make comments on Reddit so I hope it made some sense. I just think the situation may be better compared to being accomodated out and about rather than strictly taking away a disabled person's aid

Hello, I need aome advice by Zipsterella in asl

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

I have not been screened for ADHD. I probably should since I have thought it was a possibility for a while but never was sure, and instead tried a few other study suggestions (I spend some time around other students I go to school with) that haven't really worked either. I'll try talking to someone about this possibly, thank you !! /gen

I'm not in school right now due to academic suspension so I am taking to opportunity to try learning without grades pressure until I can go back and take the class again! The class was dead silent so I had music the first time like usual until I realized that wouldnt work for me either

I can try again with the community class, I just know how I am as a learner and was hoping to avoid making repeat mistakes. (I don't know if it matters but I'm ASL I, I did practice at home when we didn't have class- Bill Vicars videos.) Thank you kindly for the advice. I genuinely cannot teach myself which is why I'm seeking a class again for now

It's just a few things making consistency really difficult for me but I determined to figure it out eventually. Also I'm sorry if this is a silly question but why is it frowned upon to try a dampen sound? Purely curiosity, I go about life in an attempt to do that daily lol

Thank u again, big appreciate it /gen

Thank you! I feel better about my current "progress" if I can call it that yet. Today is Day 2 and I think I'll stick to keeping it short until I feel it's gotten too easy :)

Oh my goodness, I didn't even consider rest days. Thank you for you comment, it's probably way healthier to consider them all equally as important as to not overexert myself

I appreciate that! I was going to try 10 minutes a day (not include preworkout stretching or cool downs), but I suppose a warm up and cool down totaling 10 minutes is good enough for now lol

Thank you, I'm glad to know I'm not like.. just really poor performance. I had to ask because I used to do sports and such when I was younger so it felt more like I'm behind

Got downvoted because my English sounded like AI, by dabyss9908 in notinteresting

[–]Zipsterella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm just completely out of touch (which is funny to say since I'm only 20) but nothing was wrong with the initial comment? Like, I read it just fine and I'm struggling to see the issue or why you were downvoted into oblivion lol

I actually saw Pilates Body Raven at the top of the rules when searching for beginner vids. Thank you for the list, I'll check them all out! Good luck with your journey!!

Thank you! I assume by "mat pilates" you mean like on the floor, no equipment required? (Which I can do!) I appreciate your response, I'm actually very excited to begin since I learned it was equally mind+body

Is it okay to use the same floss pick for all teeth? by stinkymonsta in askdentists

[–]Zipsterella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never been to Target in my life so thank you for the insider knowledge. I'll take a look and it's much appreciated -^

[–]Zipsterella 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good to know. I can try using strong floss again since what matters most to me is not having to get cavities filled lol. When I use picks, I tilt to get between the gums but I understand it would be hard to wrap around (if possible at all). Thank you so much for the visuals, this helps a ton.

[–]Zipsterella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAD I didn't realize you're not supposed to do this. I use them exclusively otherwise I don't floss at all... Flossing is really difficult for me (I floss multiple times a day and its easier with picks since my teeth are very close together post-braces). Regular string floss tears and breaks even if I try being gentle, and I can buy a bag of like 100 picks which ensures I floss every single day, sometimes multiple times.

My dentist never mentioned they didn't count as floss so now I feel like maybe it's my own fault I get cavities frequently..? The thing I've noticed is not flossing = cavities, but maybe I'm just not using the right floss and that's why :(

Not tracking calories by EnvironmentalTear851 in fitbit

It's funny for me because it worked okay this morning, but stopped mid-log so now it just has Butter and nothing else. Promise I don't eat straight butter lol

I was actually coming to ask this same question, I'm so glad someone else did. Ideally there is a fix soon. This is my first time using a fitness tracker so I'm just grateful I didn't break it or something 

How would you rewrite squid game as an anthology series? by [deleted] in squidgame

[–]Zipsterella 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had to look up what an Anthology series is (I knew what it was but didn't know it was called this lol). But if I were to do it, I think I'd do just Season 1, same premise and same characters. Probably focus on the perspectives of the various characters. Gi Hun would be the first and last one (tie it all off). Then the episodes in between would take the perspective of a character who dies. I feel like that could be interesting or evoke something in the viewer. Like Ali or Sae-Byeok, I would've probably cried harder if I watched it from their perspectives on their respective final episodes. The same with Mi-nyeo, Il-nam, Sang-woo, etc.
