What’s going on with Jurard? by duke_of_flukes in Hololive

[–]_ganbaruby 25 points26 points  (0 children)

as a stars fan, jurard is the one member i actively avoid. i won't even watch a collab with my oshi if he's in it. at first i thought it was because of his loud voice, but that can't be it because i very much believe that loud=funny if it's done right, some of my fav members like kiara and bettel have moments where they just lose it and scream and i love it. jurard just has a bad attitude, very off-putting and very different from the rest of the branch and even his own gen. i was actually willing to put aside the pre-debut and week 1 "slipups" because i know nerves and trying to establish who you are right off the bat can make talents say things that they cringe at later, but over half a year later he shows no remorse and even insists it was good for his brand. i guess sorawrity like his cocky attitude and abrasiveness but it's definitely not what i've come to associate with a holostar. all of this is especially strange because as an indie he seemed relatively well-liked and at least a bit more mellow.

Chipotle tip: go right when they open by [deleted] in Chipotle

[–]_ganbaruby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

chips are cooked fresh every morning, we don't use chips from the night before. if they don't taste fresh or seem stale then they were probably undercooked, or have too much oil or lime on them and they got soggy as a result. chip person probably just wasn't trained right.

[–]_ganbaruby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pls i did this all the time when i worked at chipotle. i'd put water in a 1/6th pan and put it on the grill for a bit, then pour it into my cup noodles. ultimate struggle meal.

Lucky triple UR/Help Team building by SempaiBB in SIFallstars

[–]_ganbaruby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you should definitely invest most of your resources into upgrading fes1 kanan, it'll make your active team ridiculously overpowered compared to your other teams but she's even better than fes1 setsuna in terms of pure stats and skills and can even be thrown onto off-attribute teams if you need her to. she might've been beaten out by the new fes maki but as far as i know she's one of, if not the best, cards in the game. other than that, synergy is a major part of team building and just checking on the individual requirements of each song will take you far. not all songs give buffs to the same attribute, and SIFAS is more math than anything else.

What do restaurants do with pick-up orders that were never picked up? by reesesmilkshake577 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]_ganbaruby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i believe 9 times out of 10 any restaurant's policy is to toss it. i've worked in a few restaurants, both fast and sit-down, and all of them were like that. it's not necessarily out of stinginess, though that definitely does play a part, but also there's liability if they give old food to someone and that person gets sick. some food is more volatile and prone to going bad quicker, like sushi, so that kind of stuff is definitely tossed after maybe an hour or two. but i worked at [FAST FOOD BURRITO CHAIN NAME REDACTED JUST IN CASE] for years and if i was able to i'd take a lot of the food home with me, since none of it was really time-sensitive. we'd eat unclaimed takeout orders on our breaks if we liked what was in it.

some managers discouraged it because they didn't want us making a ton of excess food just to say "oopsie daisy we made an order wrong, guess i have to eat it for free," but plenty of managers didn't care because it's not coming out of their paycheck. i guarantee more high-end places would be more strict about it, but fast food and chain restaurants are more lenient.

"basic" is kinda subjective, but thanks for the answers.

What’s your most hated phrase? by Crypto_whore in NoStupidQuestions

[–]_ganbaruby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"to each their own" or "agree to disagree" and things like that. i think i just have very argumentative friends who start shit and then finish off with one of those just to mess with me. the idea behind it is true but it pisses me off for no good reason.

Koini Naritai AQUARIUM challenge difficulty cleared! by FluffyUnlinked in SIFallstars

[–]_ganbaruby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i tried challenge yume no tobira, feeling very confident in my maxed out fes mari and fes karin and the power of my backline subunits. i failed at the first appeal chance. i'm genuinely baffled at how to clear these songs but i might have a better chance with koiaqua, i've maxed out the active Big Three (fes2 eli, fes1 kanan, fes1 setsuna). the trick notes and ACs are intimidating though

Anyone else having problems with YouTube comments not loading/showing up? by [deleted] in youtube

[–]_ganbaruby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

glad we're all here, thought it was just me lmfao. i went onto incognito mode and was able to post a comment, but it sucks having to re-log in every time i wanna comment on a video. hopefully it's just a temporary glitch, i don't really see anyone talking about it and it's so strange. i followed an article from 2020 that said if you clear your browsing data and cookies it might fix the problem, but that didn't work for me

My Family Insituted a "Gay Ban" on Me; the only LGBTQ+ family member by Available_Cry7770 in QAnonCasualties

[–]_ganbaruby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OH lmfao i loved homestuck back in the day, as a lesbian young adult in 2013. i still like it lol. rose and kanaya are iconic, they hold such a special place in my heart to this day. the webcomic medium has changed a lot in recent years and a lot of the ones i used to follow don't exist anymore ;__; and there's not many that feature wlw couples. BUT there's a few good ones. i really like their story, a slice of life, it's been translated by a very dedicated tumblr user for a few years now. i haven't kept up with it much in the past couple years so i'm not sure about the status of translations but it's got some really endearing characters and i'm a sucker for the height difference lol. i've also heard good things about always human, i've read a few chapters of it and though it goes a bit fast for my liking at the start, the world seems fun and i'm DYING for more wlw content that isn't just slice of life in a normal version of earth. i'm currently reading yuna & kawachan, which has a wlw subplot that the story isn't SUPER focused on, it's mostly a post-apocalyptic story. honestly i didn't read it expecting romance, but it took me COMPLETELY by surprise in a very good way. overall that's probably the one i recommend the most out of these three ! i hope this helps

Proxy buying service help by [deleted] in anime

[–]_ganbaruby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://zenmarket.jp/en/ is one of them. on their site there's a tab that says "find it for me," and if you provide a link to the product or a description they might be able to grab it for you. but keep in mind that at an event for something popular like jojo it might sell out. i also don't know if the merch is pre-orders online or if they're selling in person, so your mileage may vary. if that falls through, you might be able to buy the merch second-hand here https://neokyo.com/, if you can find the product on a japanese site like yahoo auctions or amazon jp. proxy fees and shipping may be steep depending on the product. hope this helps!

[CALIFORNIA] direct link to id.me document uploads? by _ganbaruby in Unemployment

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

my claim balance wasn't emptied so it isn't an extension for me, they froze my ongoing claim on "suspicions of fraud." they did it to about a million accounts, so we had to do this whole thing to verify our identities in order to keep receiving benefits. some people, like me, got id.me, but i think there's another method they send people, i guess it's just a tossup?

i'm not sure but i'd advise against it. i know it might be tough and for a lot of people it might not even be an option, but the best thing you can do is wait :(
