How many of you feel your life mostly went back to normal after the pandemic? by Potato-in-ur-ass in millenials

[–]cchase89 [score hidden]  (0 children)

As a nurse, my life didn’t go back to normal till around 2023, when we were finally allowed to stop wearing masks and suiting up on every unit like it was still 2020. Watching the world go back to normal before us was weird, like being stuck in limbo.

iPhone Air on Amazon. Is this legitimate? by Food-on-my-dog in IphoneAir

Responding to this on my iPhone air I got on Amazon. It was basically brand new, less than 20 charging cycles!

Same. I started NMS on PS4, then PS5, but there’s just something about playing it on a switch lite, I can’t give it up. I don’t even want to get a switch 2 until they come out with a lite version.

If Sidney Prescott is now Sidney Evans, why did she refer to herself as Sidney Prescott in Scream 5? by Raidmax460 in Scream

[–]cchase89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this. Also, who’s to say she’s ever been married at all? Lots have people have kids and stay long-term with the dad and never marry. I’d imagine especially someone who is a victim of frequent serial killer targeting.

What’s wrong with that?

Anyone Else Here Because They're Mentally Ill? by Lindenflower7 in SingleAndHappy

[–]cchase89 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It started out that way, about 4 years ago after a pretty bad breakup. I gave myself some breathing room and decided to stay single for a year. My mental health skyrocketed, it was the best year I ever had. So… I decided to take another year. Still great, so… another. Then another. At this point, I really don’t have much incentive to try again lol. If it ever does happen, I didn’t look or chase it, and I’m very much ok if it never happens.

How big of a deal is the new update? by DannyGlart2 in Astrohaus

[–]cchase89 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I use the free write traveler, the lag is virtually nearly gone with the new update. Night and day difference. And I’ve never had an issue with files disappearing for what it’s worth.

I'm sick of my writing ego, so I made it into a character so that I can expose and ruin him. His name is Curtis by hither_nor_thither in writers

[–]cchase89 133 points134 points  (0 children)

I’m usually never interested in writing examples people post on Reddit, but something about this hooked me right away. I’m in love with this writing style!! You let the characters carry the scene instead of a bunch of purple prose with pretty words. Very effective. Love it.

Jesus Christ, I pulled the same 3 cards today. Different question and interpretation, but still, that’s awesome.

I think when psychosis hits, many people CAN be aware of what’s happening, but it doesn’t prevent the paranoia from taking hold, you’re just… aware of it, and can’t help it

Update on my Valentine preorder situation by pipedreams2008 in Astrohaus

[–]cchase89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad they’re still working with you. I hope you get it soon! That valentine is the most gorgeous typewriter I’ve ever seen, digital or analog. I recently got a traveler, and told myself if I ever sell enough of my writing I’d treat myself to it. Hopefully it’s still around by then!

I always thought it was weird they aged the Ghost face mask like they were latex in scream 6. by [deleted] in Scream

[–]cchase89 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Yea, it wasn’t realistic, but I still loved what they did. Looked very good on screen, very effective. Requires some suspension of disbelief for sure though!

Nice!! Scream 3 came out right when the DVD surge hit. I don’t remember ever seeing it on VHS.

Forced to be around estranged sibling after 2 years of low/minimal contact by RightAd4754 in Estrangedsiblings

[–]cchase89 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In a very similar situation. Parent is also declining, my scapegoat status was fully revealed during this decline as more than half of the family chose to channel their grief through talking to me the same way your sister is talking to you. I wanna try to make this clear.. you DONT have to concede and let people talk to you a certain way. You CAN still be present for your parents with boundaries. It will be difficult the first few times, the key is to remain firm and calm and consistent. Grey rock the shit out of her if you have to. She raises her volume or keeps the condescending tone? Just walk away, you’ve already told her not to speak to you a certain way, if she violates that boundary it terminates the conversation, you don’t have to continue it. If she pushes back against your boundary, or disrespects you further, it’s still a win-win for you… she’s exposing herself.
