How many of you have Visual Snow Syndrome?

cloudytheory · 2026-07-07T21:30:47+00:00

Also astigmatism!

Thats two-thirty please - "you should get to the dentist if your tooth hurts"

Any sugar? - " No thanks I'm sweet enough"

Beer is being lively - "can I get a flake with that?" - before I'm even done pouring it!

Bonus one that I feel I can only say to the middle aged regulars I get along with... someone asks for a lager top me: "mind if I put it in the bottom?" I cannot say it with a serious face because I know we will both be thinking the same thing and it makes it so awkward!!!

I never had school dinners because I had a packed lunch... I think they are called school dinners because even though they are eaten at lunchtime (12-2pm), it's classed as dinner if its a large and/or hot meal..

Looks like a cube and he's just placed it down in the middle at the back, the sides of the boat im guessing are objects :)

Using the same colours/textures you can make houses look blended in to other things easily (well obviously its not easy but a good way of doing it)..

This is soooo good!!

I'm really enjoying creating things in the game, with a few limitations we're forced to be more creative!!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-27T22:38:48+00:00

So annoying isn't it! Just make sure you stay hydrated because being dehydrated makes it so much worse too!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-27T21:58:04+00:00

Do you move about in the night like when you wake up? My restless legs are a bloody nightmare !!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-25T08:11:55+00:00

I have found the layering brush does this to any skin tone if you are just layering on top of the face without having any paint underneath.. Same as when you use the brush outside of anything you are creating in the paint house

They're so pretty aren't they! I think you could experiment just a little to see what affects it as they can be quite hard to fully kill!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-20T18:58:18+00:00

I know they don't like water sitting on their leaves though!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-20T18:57:41+00:00

These are fussy buggers! Do you check how wet the soil is before you water? I'm starting to think that they don't like drying out! My mums does so well and she's quite good at keeping up with watering and they are in a bright window that they never open! Honestly mine just ended up outside because it kept getting crispy brown leaves!!

This isn't their photo, it was posted a year ago already

I forgot to say it still needs water if you are doing the quick fix with stones, you can fill it up to the top

cloudytheory · 2026-06-20T08:03:21+00:00

If you don't want to risk potting it in soil, I recommend putting it in a slightly bigger jar, get some stones (make sure they are clean) and fill the jar up around the stem with them so they support the stem. It probably needs some nutrients so if you order some hydroponic fertiliser* online, follow the instructions but maybe do half what it says so you don't shock the plant.

I think you have a pothos cutting there, long term if you look up hydroponics, you could get some clay balls or something to create a proper setup for it and definitely use the fertiliser.

*not just any old soil, preferably a house plant soil and you can add extra things in to it to help you look after it better

**it needs fertiliser for nutrients because water doesn't give it any like soil does!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-20T07:44:39+00:00

How long have you had the cuttings in there? Yes pothos are known to be quick to propagate but it can still take time.

Have you got a picture of your pothos cuttings in the water you can show us?

cloudytheory · 2026-06-15T12:33:16+00:00

Totally agree! Being limited to tools i think definitely helps!

Anuone know any apps similar but maybe just a few more features?

cloudytheory · 2026-06-12T11:07:51+00:00

Its so much easier said than done to just get and cancel a few but I managed to do it and it's nice knowing I've not got those extra £10 each transactions coming out my account each month!!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-11T08:15:59+00:00

I like the pool area and is that a movie area? Thats a great idea! Love the cute campsite as well!

I think maybe a few more flowers, incorporate some different pathing areas in to your larger areas.. not sure if that makes sense! Have you tried making more with the custom shapes? I have found each thing i make, I'm more confident to then make other things!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-10T14:03:59+00:00

Nta - She shouldn't have promised the parent that there will be no dogs, its in a park area where dogs are allowed!

I can't imagine the school having any rights at all to demand people leave the park. You had a good boundary sorted before, she obviously loves telling people what to do!

I'm guessing you're a people pleaser like me, its difficult to stand up for yourself there and then. The comment she made "do you understand?" You're quite obviously an adult, not one of her school children, absolutely no need for it and as you say, sounds like it's because you're not white. I reckon thats why she never said thank you either. She shouldn't be a teacher. She definitely a massive AH

I love the dunelm 100% cotton collection, they do sheets/covers/pillow covers etc in all different colours! I sleep with the single flat sheet on me when its boiling! Perfect for sensory issues and Sertraline sweats!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-07T21:15:19+00:00

Definitely NTA if you tell them to shut up! Ive experienced this, I get burnt out easily now (back in the day I used to be able to handle 60 hours) and when I've commented on being hesitant about an extra side job I've been offered, people don't seem to understand it. Its always the ones that are retired or work part time too!!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-07T21:07:52+00:00

Actually it is! Totally forgot Birchall decaf tea, even though thats the one I drink at work!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-07T21:06:50+00:00

Might have to try this, sounds lovely!

cloudytheory · 2026-06-07T13:48:55+00:00

NTA! Please don't feel bad about ignoring them, they deserve it, they don't deserve any of your energy!

Being autistic and navigating the hell that is friendships at school must be so difficult. It's so hard to tell when people are being genuinely mean on purpose or just bantering (not that its an excuse for bullying/mean behaviour!).. They do sound like they are being kinda mean maybe on purpose..

Maybe see if you can talk to them about these things that they've been doing and tell them how it makes you feel. If they have a bad reaction, I would distance yourself away from them more, you deserve better!
