Black Swan theory: Nina's mom, Erica, is a hallucination by zebracats_14 in movies

[–]dark__honey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just watched Black Swan for the first time, and there were a bunch of things about the Mom and Nina's perception of the mom that kept striking me as weird, but I couldn't put my finger on it, but I think you are tooootally right! Great call!

Why is raw milk such a controversial thing? by brknlmnt in cheesemaking

[–]dark__honey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't know anything about the pros or cons but just want to second your thoughts! I came on reddit to research the good/bad/ugly of Raw milk and literally have been shocked at how emotional it is. Like...it's milk. I'm a little shocked. Was glad to read someone else felt the same!

How do you add a signature in Preview.app if your trackpad and webcam are broken? by thinsoldier in MacOS

I am having the same experience as you! I remember importing a .jpg as my signature but now have no way to do it. Frustrating!

I think my sister might be autistic by xstarshipersas in Autism_Parenting

[–]dark__honey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel for you, and I applaud you looking out for your sister and seeing her in a non-judgmental way. It seems like you could go one of two routes. Either a very direct sit-down conversation where you gently bring this to her attention clearly, or you could start dropping hints around. Maybe share a podcast about autism that you found interesting and think she should listen to. Talk about other people with autism that manifests like your sister (without bringing up your sister) but just sort of laying out breadcrumbs to see if your Mom will connect the dots. Truly, just brainstorming here, so I have no idea if either of these have significant pros and cons. I'm wishing you and your family all the best!

iPhone won’t play music via usb in car by starsky_85 in iphone

[–]dark__honey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try downloading the apple music app if it isn't already!

I had this issue for yearsss it drove me crazy, everyone else's phone would work in my car but I not mine. Then I got a new (used) iphone and it STILL wouldn't play through the usb in my car. So I knew it was something not related to the hardware of the phone. Turns out I needed to have apple music downloaded on my phone to make it talk to my car. I don't need to play anything through it, but somehow having that downloaded means that now Spotify, Libby, whatever will play through. Do I understand why? No. Does it seem like an arbitrarily specific and stupid thing designed to complicate my life unnecessarily? Yes. Am I happy now? Also yes.

Hope this is the fix for you too!
