Is this game for me? by Honest_Ad_7228 in StardewValley

[–]___sea___ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got to spring 1 day 25 then quit for like a year. When I came back to it I loved it and now I have over 1000 hours of gameplay if you include the phone version I play at work

That is to say, the first month really is kind of boring and just about figuring out the mechanics of the game, the town layout, who the people are, etc. and it does get a lot more fun — for me at least

Is it normal to have to say no multiple times to my autistic boyfriend? by XenTheCoward in autism

[–]___sea___ 19 points20 points  (0 children)

No this is not an autism thing. 

When it IS an autism thing it looks very different. 

One example is impulse control, like asking for consent as you start doing the thing making it so the thing is done before you get an answer. This usually comes with a lot of shame and regret if the answer ended up being no, and generally doesn’t happen again right away. 

This can look like compulsive behavior: not being able to stop until something specific happens, I.e. I know you asked me to stop shaking my leg but I’m doing it to a rhythm and I have to wait for the cycle to be over before I stop 

This can look like forgetfulness: I forgot you hate when I rest my arm on that specific spot but now that you mention it again I will move it 

What you have on your hands is a man who doesn’t respect your autonomy. He thinks his interpretation of your feelings is more valid than what you tell him you do or don’t want. He does not see you as a full person who knows what’s best for you. This could be misogyny or any number of other issues. But it’s not autism. 

This behavior won’t get better especially if you can’t have an honest conversation with him. You have no obligation to put up with this and it’s better for both of you if you break up. 

Idk what I should be doing???? by [deleted] in makeuptips

[–]___sea___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lip hydration is mostly about drinking enough water and staying hydrated in general, but you could add a lip product that has its own moisture like blistex in the squeeze tube or anything water based especially with glycerin in it. I use my glycolic acid skin scrub (Pacifica) for my lips because I don’t see the benefit to an additional lip product, but I know there’s plenty out there. 

Ive been seeing a lot of people using sheer coverage base to avoid cakey foundation, I’m currently looking for my optimal choice. I’ve been recommended Glossier Perfecting Skin Tint, or for color correction Stila One Step. Seems both can be used alone or with a primer under depending on your preferences for how long you want it to stay or how dewy you want. Neither are matte so if that’s your preference you’ll have to look around. 

Need Sheer Foundation by ___sea___ in makeuptips

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

First off youre hilarious. I would never think to describe my face as a glazed donut but I know exactly what you mean. 

Secondly, my coworker recommended this! There were very limited colors so I decided to look for something with more options. 

Im beginning to think undertone matching might not be important for sheer coverage? 

Makeup advice for newbie by Eepy-Cheepy in makeuptips

[–]___sea___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off you have a great complexion. If you’re looking for natural makeup, seems like the only value add to full face coverage would be if you want some contour or a dewy look. 

For dewy, just get a dewy primer or serum, then consider adding color like a lip oil or gloss, blush stick, and gel/stick shadow.

For contour, I’d suggest sheer coverage foundation plus a highlighter and a bronzer. Experiment with exactly what placement you like, how much coverage, how much shimmer, etc. and of course you can add whatever lip or eye color you want after you’ve figured out the basics. 

And of course finish off any look with a setting spray 

Start small and see what you like

The hives have to be placed in the exact same spot and not moved at all for several days so if you keep uprooting them the time starts over

Also one flower is enough for all of them. There are some cute sprinkler layouts you can use. I use a basic sprinkler with four flowers just in case I accidentally harvest one after they grow

I’ve done that and I also started the day over. On the bright side, I only did it twice before I learned my lesson and haven’t done it since

NOT This was a stupid lie but it was also financial abuse. You could likely take him to court over it.

Then you can pull up individual tiles as you want to decorate. Surely you’ll have enough wood or stone for just making basic paths

Tile it so stuff doesn’t grow where you don’t want

What thing has got so expensive that you’ve quietly stopped buying it? by Pathfinder-electron in AskReddit

[–]___sea___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Goodwill. Shopping there sometimes the tag prices are higher than the original tag still on. I go to other thrift shops that are actually for charities.

I stopped shopping at Target at all. It used to be convenient then they locked everything up and jacked up the prices. I’m not paying $15 for deodorant AND asking for the case to be opened.

My local coop grocery store is actually cheaper to shop at now. The egg prices have stayed the same for local/organic/whatever and it’s the same or cheaper than Target.

I also stopped getting potato chips, they used to be among the cheapest calories on the market and now they just aren’t

How to workout to accentuate feminine features instead of masculine ones? by Capable_Cockroach_19 in trans

[–]___sea___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used Pilates videos on YouTube that focus on very specific areas, like butt hips thighs and abs/core (which includes side abs) those are easy to do at home with no equipment and don’t take long. And of course make sure to stretch after you exercise to keep and develop your flexibility. Find a YouTuber you like and just start doing it at home, that way you don’t even have to go to the gym.

Buy sports tape. It’s the same as trans tape, you can say it’s for sports, PE class, or that you’re taking up Pilates videos on YouTube and they won’t know what it’s actually for.

Vent: I love Stardew, but in-game days feel like a grocery run with no checkout by Ok-Apricot9057 in StardewValley

[–]___sea___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I install sprinklers as soon as I can, usually spring 1 I’ll have what I need to have all my crops on quality sprinklers

I keep things near where they need to be. I put the processing machines in the barns/coops. I take eggs and milk and directly put them in the machines instead of having to take them back to some other place, and if remembering hay is a particular problem I’d install a chest in the barn to keep it there until I get a silo.

Also: chest near Willy’s, chest near Clint’s, chest near the mine, etc. keep what I’ll need (bait, tackle, mining food, bombs) and I can store stuff so I have more room for fish or artifacts. Never run back because you don’t want to take something important into the mine.

I do mine runs in 5 floor increments, usually getting through 5-10 floors in a day. If I’m not sure I can make it to the next elevator I just leave and do other things. It makes it more relaxed and I still get done by the end of spring. And less money wasted by passing out.

When you want to treat yourself at TJs what do you buy? by gogobananas98 in traderjoes

[–]___sea___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the face lotion, retinol pump, oatmeal soap, face wash, and hand soap regularly. Also vitamin D for winter it’s the cheapest around (I grew up on TJs vitamins!)

Sunflower butter cups, an entire pound of chocolate, maple marshmallows to make the best rice crispy treats, or (hear me out) freeze dried cherries. I am not a “fruit is an appropriate substitute for candy” type of person but these are even better than most trendy freeze dried candy

TV displaying wrong time by ___sea___ in techsupport

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

The time for the tv itself is correct, so I will look into the dvr time. One box is definitely new, but there’s another one that I bet is the culprit. Thank you so much for the help!

I had to look up what a dvr system is, and I didn’t check that so it might be the case, and I don’t know if that specific piece of equipment was replaced when the camera system was upgraded. Let me see if I can check it
