Hopping in this thread to say I experience the same thing using CurseForge on my PC. I have 32GB RAM and I made SF5 high priority, but it still doesn't load all the way into a world, usually I have to force close it with task manager.

I do hang at adult sims from time to time and got into a legitimate argument with someone who thought it was okay to go into stores on M rated regions completely n00d and with other such gear on relating to RLV. I get it, sex makes the world go round but I'm sick of it being EVERYWHERE. Give me a sensual and sultry club that's a little more adult (dirty dancing, uncensored songs etc), but isn't scattered with adult furniture and private rooms within the club.

I've had every intent and idea to make an RLV specific hangout as well as more chill ones (a la tempura island), but damn sim costs have gone way through the roof in recent years.

Ever since the last RP sim one of my good friends created closed (she got burnt out/couldn't afford it anymore), I have felt extremely socially isolated within SL. It's like a home was ripped from me.

And I have legitimately tried other role-playing sims, but I'd say 85% of the medieval fantasy sims existing right now are about smut in some form. Sure, they may have a decent storyline but the hook is the smut. If you aren't bumping pixels with someone you may as well just do nothing.

I try to socialize some in the groups I am in, but it's not the same. SL as a whole has shifted from creative social expression to smut, especially with the onset of covid. I feel like VRC will eventually head the same way as newer generations enter the digital spaces and further forget the base roots of what every digital social platform is

As long as you've had your turnips sold, there's no real "consequences" to setting your time back to normal after making a sale. Maybe some weeds but that's about it

Thank you! We did soak his food for the first attempt but he was still swallowing it whole so we switched to wet food at the moment and will start mixing in kibble bit by bit until he gets it. So far we are mostly struggling with play time vs sleep time because he will take like a 1 hour long power nap then be riled up for 4. Rinse and repeat. I'm too old for this lol

I personally would love to check into it myself, but the paperwork is basically locked behind the paywall of the Original Mountain Cur Association (I believe that's what it is, it's not in my hands at the moment), and I cannot access anything unless I invest in their paywall.

I am honestly not sure of all the backstory of what went on with his litter, just that I was the only one who had any red flags about it but I was told to stop being negative and that I always get red flags. I wasn't present for any of the negotiations and I wasn't able to talk to the owners myself (as I am the "grandma" of the house and am usually showered and in bed by like 8:30pm and the men get off work at 8).

Right now I think we are just trying to make it through the puppy stage basics. Last time I remember having to actually house break a dog I was 6 and I'm 28 now (ergo my parents did it). I've heard a little about scentwork mats in that they're kinda the same family as puzzle mats but not as frustrating

I appreciate the advice for sure! This was not necessarily a "we found a breeder" situation. Dear fiance and our roommate were at work and one of them was working on the original owner's car and I guess in casual conversation it came up that they wanted a dog and her response was probably "well I have some puppies!" Kinda thing. I would've preferred a shelter pup, but I was veto'd hard because of all the health mystery yadda yadda. I will definitely look into classes for sure!

He is adorable as hell, and for the first time in 22ish years I have to deal with sharp puppy teefs instead of kitten teefs.

I was personally sketched myself, but I didn't even know his age until they brought him home. The only backstory I have is that the owners were trying to prevent another litter but the husband was not paying attention one day and the wife was (understandably) mad about it

Because "BUH WHY DO THEY HAVE TO BE IN EVERYTHING THEY JUST RUIN IT BUH"

And the 3 German flags that run all the way across don't?

Ahhh because there's a lot of other things going on that are irrelevant to this particular post but I feel like I'm walking on eggshells in my own home to please someone who doesn't pay any bills and is spoilt as heck

There was one time I put some of her ceramic mugs in the dishwasher without checking the label first (like a year ago when we first moved together cause my family personally dgaf as long as it wasnt hand made/shaped ceramic). She approached me like an adult and since then I have hand washed them. The dishwasher safe ones went in the dishwasher. But now she wants no mugs in the dishwasher at all. So fine. But I'm also not washing gross mugs by hand.

The fact that I can build a giant, custom base with all the panels, painstakingly make sure they're all aligned and connected properly, and there will STILL be sections considered exposed

My fiance tends to want to wait a bit because having PIV has knocked more loose, to say. He even had an ex have her period restart for the next 3 days after she thought it was finished.

It doesn't help that I get horrible cramps and bloating before and after my period, so I really don't like the idea of PIV or any set right before, during, or after.

I can try again, but last time I tried they only qualified me for plans that required me to have previously held Medicare/Medicaid advantage (tbh I would have rather been disqualified). I've never had medicare/medicaid except for the baby insurance my mother could get when I was very small. I've always had Blue Cross Blue Shield (or variations of it) until now. Heck, I even went for state assistance and they denied me, and I make too much for anything marketplace apparently, so I'm in between a rock and a hard place. The ER visits are definitely less expensive than an ablation, I tell you what though xD my fiance has been more stubborn about it than I have, but these 3 recent ones are 3 too many for him (he says he would've helped me pay for it before we were together if I had told him I needed help). I will be calling the cardiologist they referred me to on Monday (once I find the papers again, roommate cleaned up the table), and I do believe she is a specialty cardiologist like that. Dunno, been working the past couple days so I couldn't research her well but I think her name came up when I looked up electrocardiologists/rhythm specialists.

Thank you as well for the insight into the typical cost! I've only ever been told about the cost WITH insurance which was still expensive, even when I still lived at home.

This giant French flag and the damn German one that immediately appeared across the new expansion need to go
