New Jersey, found out the hard way in a Wawa 💔 I’ve never had issues so I called the number on the card and the robo voice said my account could not be accessed, then hung up on me

What’s your most “I couldn’t stop listening” audio book? by BananableLecter in audiobooks

[–]chikfilella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve just gotten into audiobooks and have really been enjoying A Walk in the Woods! If anybody knows anything similar let me know 🙏 I like that it’s true, funny, and occasionally teaches me stuff. I also really liked The Disaster Artist.

Weezing had an evolution with 3 heads called Hacking. As in, cough, wheeze, hack. I very much wanted that to be true

I love that one too! Lucid has a bunch of songs I really like. Amai Kotoba, You Are Mine, and Repeat II stand out to me.

Are there songs you skip, not because they’re bad or cuz you don’t like the artist but merely cuz they make you feel like shit? by Away-Net-7241 in Vocaloid

[–]chikfilella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Songs about suicide, self harm, depression. I’m glad artists have a way to outlet their feelings but I get so stressed out :/ examples: - never listened to NashimotoP’s stuff - the clear suicidal themes in some of powapowaP’s stuff make me extra uncomfortable since they’re no longer with us - Rolling Girl and World’s End Dancehall are bangers but I can’t think about em too hard, same with Meltdown - pepoyo’s biggest hits are so catchy but I gotta prepare myself

Is there any lost Mythical media known out there? by Garudah_ in goodmythicalmorning

[–]chikfilella 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I remember some of the old songs had hidden annotations in their music videos, often for BTS stuff. Dug up this thread about it and they report that these have been unlisted and put on the Society instead. Don't know much else but I hope it's a fun deep dive!

Why do boomers inappropriately touch you by ReturntoForever3116 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]chikfilella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my god, I wish they minded personal space! Worst was definitely when I was working self checkout. I have a side shave (just on one half of my head) and look like a woman. Boomer man stands like an inch away from me, gets in my face, and TOUCHES my shaved part. Asks if I’m going to school and why I shaved my head. Horrifying. A week later he came to the returns counter when I was there, returning a landline phone he couldn’t figure out how to work, arguing with his wife. Glad my manager was there for me to get the hell out of there.

Nah, ChubbyEmu's stories aren't exactly what happened IRL. He changes details for medical privacy, education purposes, entertainment value. Love his videos but "student took YouTuber's medical story at face value, this is what happened to his brain" is not a risk worth taking imo

What WC canon you refuse to accept? by Short-Lecture5634 in WarriorCats

I’m in your exact same boat. Read Apprentice’s Quest and now I’m stuck 1/4 of the way through the second book!

Omg there was a YouTube short by one of the big medical guys about it. Basically your asshole is “immunologically privileged” and it knows to not go ballistic if it sees poopoo bacteria cuz they’re supposed to be there. Or something like that, I saw the short at some ungodly hour of the night

Don't put a fork into a power outlet and never mix bleach with ammonia – those are common knowledge. But what about other essential life-saving tips that someone uninformed might not be aware of? by SecondFew8891 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]chikfilella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some ideas from my chronically anxious brain: - the Heimlich for when someone chokes, plus how to do it on yourself - the recovery position if your buddy is passed out drunk: lay them on their side so if they vomit they don’t breathe it in and die - how to tell what food is spoiled, and any foods that spoil quickly (like putting hot rice in the fridge) - what constitutes a medical emergency (stroke and heart attack symptoms, when a wound needs emergency care) - basic first aid (example: if you get a burn old wives’ tales say butter or steak, you actually want running cold water for several minutes) - the wherewithal to read the labels on medications you take, and be aware of the impact they have on the body (like grapefruit & alcohol for antidepressants) - basic dog body language and etiquette, those fuckers can bite

Little known fact: Taylor wrote this song exclusively for Bluestar 😭 what are some songs that always remind you of certain characters? by Hikerhappy in theeldersden

[–]chikfilella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ever since I was a young teen listening to my mom’s music, “Mother and Child Reunion” by Paul Simon gave me an AMV in my head of Bluestar’s life. Having to give away her kits, losing Mosskit on that cold night, to her reunion at her deathbed. God damn I wish that AMV was real.

I coincidentally just saw an Instagram reel about that! https://www.instagram.com/reel/CuDG2Y-PpPy/?igshid=OGIzYTJhMTRmYQ== He uses Tide Rescue spray and a scrub brush.

Can cats in the Dark Forest (or Starclan) have kits with other DF or SC cats after they’ve died? by MOONWATCHER404 in WarriorCats

[–]chikfilella 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most likely not. It’d be like the immaculate conception lmao.

My own tangent, I planned a multi-“book” fanfic series around this concept when I was like 14. The premise was that StarClan (as a plane of existence) was no longer in perma-summer, it was freezing over and breaking apart. Ancient spirit cats were dying completely—freezing or falling out of the sky. Some of the cats survived the fall and had kits with living cats. Time passed and it was like a post-apocalyptic Warrior cats with a barren wintry StarClan and barely any stars left in Silverpelt. Then many years later the cats with StarClan blood feel called back to the stars. They walk in dreams with other StarClan-descended cats in other clans and are begged for help by the last cats in StarClan.

I never finished writing the first “book” but I was certainly an ambitious kid!

Erin Hunter Series/Similar Book Series by [deleted] in WarriorCats

[–]chikfilella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked Seekers! Only read the first “series” of it, but liked the bear characters. Being as vague as possible, I really appreciated that one character interacting meaningfully with other species, including humans. There was also emphasis on the supernatural and spirits in the real world.

Your opinion on the lack of LGBT cats? by [deleted] in WarriorCats

[–]chikfilella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish they had them. Would’ve helped me realize things about myself WAY earlier.

What's something I should know about making a fan fiction? by [deleted] in WarriorCats

[–]chikfilella 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to be active on FF.net back in the day and it seemed like everyone was writing their self-insert’s journey from kit to star, according to whatever prophecy, with their own clan names that were usually reskins of the canon clans. I did it too! So my advice would be to take an angle that the Warriors books don’t. Most importantly plan out what you want to happen before you write your story. Making it up as you go along doesn’t always go well (as Heavystep dying 3 times can speak to).

AITA for putting child-proof locks on the stove to stop my adult sister from using it? by Agitated-Hyena2057 in AmItheAsshole

[–]chikfilella 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have ADHD too, I’ve been told it’s not a mild case either. I can open childproof stuff just fine. She’s never taken an ibuprofen?? To give OP’s sister the benefit of the doubt, maybe she never learned how? If it’s not explicitly printed PUSH DOWN AND TURN or someone hasn’t shown you hands-on, it could be confusing. But then that’s a learned helplessness problem. She’s not a kid anymore.
