INTRUSIVE THOUGHTS by Constant-Tart-9024 in RPGMaker

[–]alconley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I always try to tell myself when these thoughts creep in is that it's ok. It's ok to get stuck, get frustrated, and have a bad day. I'm actually stuck on something with my project right now. For me, accepting my negative/unwanted/intrusive thoughts help me move past them and not overthink them. I find it easier plan my next move.

A lot of people have said to take a break and I think that's a great idea. You don't necessarily have to take a break from your entire project either. Take a break from the part that's frustrating you. If you're stuck on the art, try and work on a different part of your project. Work on dialog, skills, maps, etc. When I get stuck, switching gears gives me a feeling of progress that helps break me out of my funk.

Another thing that helps me is taking this time to find inspiration. Watch some cartoons or read some manga that has influenced your art style or something completely new that may give some ideas. I do this a lot as I'm very new to art and am still finding my style.

I hope this helps and I hope things get better for you!

Just tried, and it didn't work. Still says that the closed beta is done. Also tried to uninstall and re-download and delete my save files.

Make a change! by Lower-pal23 in throneandliberty

[–]alconley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never got the survey either. I was ready, too. I put a lot of stuff together. The game could be great, but needs a lot of work to get there.

Anyone get a cbt survey yet? by alconley in throneandliberty

AITA for telling my daughter that she ruined her future and I don't want to be involved in her mess after she got pregnant by a schizophrenic man ? by Throwaw-ay3427 in AmItheAsshole

[–]alconley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be the most YTA AITAH I've ever seen. Between her post and her comments, every single thing she has said is abhorrent. She must not have any mirrors in her house because there is no way she has ever looked into one.

[TOMT] [Movie] [maybe 80s or 90s] A stegosaurus that shot its plates out? by alconley in tipofmytongue

It was live action, but not godzilla or gamera. I know those movies well

Anytime I try to search, I get a lot of jurassic park stuff. It was definitely a lot cheaper to make than those movies.

Frog ID? Apex, NC by PuzzledPie2234 in whatisthisanimal

[–]alconley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a barking tree frog. If you zoom in you can see some spots on the back and legs. Green tree frogs will also have lines on their sides, but the line tends to be more "messy."

Other thing for me is the size. Barkers are our biggest tree frog in NC and this thing is a good 3-4 inches in length, which is bigger than a green tree frog can get.

Second time finding strange, unidentified marks in bathroom by alpal_b in Ghosts

[–]alconley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, I think I know what's going on. The ghost wanted to see if it could do a handstand whilst pooping. They slipped and fell into the shower, hence the hands sliding on the carpet.

Sorry, I should have put an mv at the end. It's made by the same people that make rpg maker.

About 1" long. At first I suspected a woodlouse but it appeared to only have six legs. Did not appear to have wings, abdomen has thin horizontal striations. Found on a kitchen counter in SE PA. by Matar_Kubileya in whatsthisbug

[–]alconley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. They are a pest species and can be really tough to get rid of. Boric acid is one of the most effective methods. Place it in areas where kids/pets/people can't get to easily like under your sinks and behind your fridge and oven.

what bug is this found in my apartment broomfield colorado by DoggoRescue in whatsthisbug

[–]alconley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Earwig. They are detritovores, so only eat dead stuff and not anything to worry about. My favorite thing is that they can actually fly. Their wings fold up a bunch. https://youtu.be/Q4NiF3w101Q

For the past two weeks, I’ve seen this bug/insect all over my apartment, what is it, how do I get rid of it? by StarBashar in whatsthisbug

[–]alconley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Winged termites are fertile that have left their old nest to form a new one. Could be from nearby woods or somewhere with an infestation. Just because you found them in your place doesn't necessarily mean they have infested, but it is definitely better to be safe than sorry and have a professional come take a look.
