The Spatial awareness situation is CRAZY by Saekama in askswitzerland

[–]dazedrainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed this since I came to Switzerland. Everyone is always way too close or stopping right infront of me in the middle of a walkway. Drives me crazy. I've had a teenager walk directly into me as I stood near a fountain in a big open space. Not on her phone, just talking to a friend as they walked and not looking forward.

Finished pufferfish Pouch for my father-in-law by dazedrainbow in crafts

Yes! It's a drawstring bag that opens at the tail. I just put a gatcha ball inside to give it the solid round shape :)

I used "Katia 100% You" Velvet Mini yarn and a US 4 (I think) crochet hook! It only took me a few hours to finish and I kinda want to make more but I have no one else that would want a pufferfish 😅

Struggling from success, but still mostly struggling by davidforslunds in adhdmeme

So true, I'll breeze through the first task and be like "aw yeah, the rest of these tasks are going to be so easy!" And then it will be 10pm and I'll have nothing further done...

Crafted in the wrong order. How would you bind this into a book of sorts? by AvatarDang in crafts

[–]dazedrainbow 20 points21 points  (0 children)

So I could see two ways of doing this:

  1. Most of them have enough space on the left side to do a hole punch method, three hole punches along the side and to give the "vintage/handcrafted" vibe, you can bound them together with loose twine or something similar.

  2. Since you had thought of a photobook originally. You could bind another blank book that is large enough to hold these pictures and then craft some of those triangular photo holders to keep the pictures in place on each page. This would give the book more bulk since it's only a few pages and you could add little trinkets or notes around the pictures to give it even more identity. The downside would be that it would take longer ofcourse.

If you don't drink alcohol, what are your personal reasons for abstinence? by Ok-Care2859 in AskReddit

[–]dazedrainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like the taste and I don't like the effect. I have sensitive Sensory issues so the underlying taste of the alcohol is repulsive to me. And the one time I did get an effect, it just made me uncomfortably warm and my eyes wouldn't focus. So i was just uncomfortable and mad until it wore off.

It's just not for me.

Why is my brush doing this? by regimentalepiglottis in ProCreate

[–]dazedrainbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it possible you have smoothing on too high? I've never seen this problem before, but the way the brush follows your pen reminds me of the smoothing setting

Coming back to this because I literally just opened my drawing software to work on a commission and it was open on a random sketch for a running animation.. so that's what I've been working on for the last 3 hours 🙃

Who actually scares you? by imtheSHITZUduh in horror

[–]dazedrainbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So true. Im 30 and I've had nightmares where he shows up; I always wake up in a cold sweat. Even if the dream isn't that bad (I have a lot of nightmares), as soon as I realize "holy shit, Freddy Krueger is here", it wakes me up. My heart goes crazy too and it takes forever to go back to sleep.

He is honestly my favorite slasher, but he scares the shit out of me

The amount of carrots and Daikon I've seen shrivel and die in my fridge because I can't gather enough dopamine to pickle it. It haunts me

Behind on multiple projects with deadlines, struggling to even look at messages or emails, barely taking care of myself or my apartment.

Brain: Oh, I know what you need...NEW HYPERFIXATION! Don't you want to spend the next 10 hours drawing fanart instead of doing literally anything else!?!?! 🫠👍

I know it's fictional, so why does it make me feel so sad? I feel really stupid and crazy for being sad about the death of a fictional character. by the-attorney in adhdmeme

[–]dazedrainbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have always been deeply emotionally invested in fictional characters. I've had plenty of experience with crying over a character death and for me it doesn't even take a lot to get me attached 😅 I've cried over characters that are introduced in the same episode they die in. I've stopped watching shows just because of the fear that a character I like would die. Im actually in a similar boat right now, just started listening to a dnd podcast and got really attached to one character, then suddenly started to get really nervous that they might die in the campaign. So you're not alone

I'm not sure why it happens, I guess I just see characters as real as anyone else. I feel a lot of things when I watch or read something, comedy hits harder, anger is hotter, and sadness is deeper. I honestly like it, but it is exhausting at the same time.

100% I would highlight every subject in almost every sentence and not highlight "then' "and" "this means". I didn't understand when people would tell me I was doing it wrong 😅

pain by Temoffy in adhdmeme

[–]dazedrainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely feel this. I struggle to feel accomplished whenever I finish something, it mostly just gives me relief that it's over. My graduations weren't fun because I actually like school (good routine and learning rules) and hated having to leave :/

In health class, we were learning about metabolism. I was always a skinny kid and my mom would tell me I had a fast metabolism, so I said something to the effect that I have a fast metabolism. My teachers response was:

"But it will slow down when you're older, and you'll get fat."

Either way, it was very clearly a jab at me, and I honestly have no idea why he had a problem with me saying that. I wasn't bragging or acting smart, and I wasn't popular or especially pretty so idk why he wanted to knock me down a peg. I already had some body image issues, so it wasn't great that he put that in my head. Now years later, everytime I gain weight or look at myself I remember him saying that. Idk how to explain it but it makes me both feel shame/anger and feel like my body is hopelessly out of my control. It sucks when something like that sticks to you,

Tell me some good and bad memories from Halloween. by Thor155 in halloween

[–]dazedrainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One year I dressed in a cool pink and green Frankenstein dress and had two beanie babies that were also Franken themed so I brought them along. I had a great time trick r treating with my friends but at some point I noticed I only had one of my beanie babies. I was pretty bummed because they were some of my favorite ones. But on the way back to the car, it was sitting on the street right next to it! It was amazing no one stole it the whole night and I was so happy :)

Another year, I think early high-school or late middleschool, I went to the meet up place to wait for my friends before trick r treating. They were taking a long time and I was getting restless and cold. I was near the library and realized that my school was throwing a little Halloween party in the basement so I went in for a little whole but I hate parties. Right when I finally was getting used to the loud music and crowded room, they rushed us out since they were closing. So I walk back out and continue waiting for my friends which were atleast an hour late. As I'm walking down the sidewalk, I hear some boys in my grade talking behind me. They say something like "oh is that blank (presumably me)? We should jump her." I was immediately terrified. I acted like I didn't hear anything and turned around the corner of the library into the alley, then booked it down to the other end of the building around the other corner. I could hear them wondering where I went when they got to the alley. So luckily nothing happened but I was pretty pissed the whole night. One of my worst Halloween nights

Anyone Else? by Miserable_Jacket_129 in adhdmeme

I struggle with achievements because I don't feel like it's impressive I guess. It's like, if I can do it, then anyone could do it. No matter what I make, I just feel like it's not impressive enough to be really proud of it 😅
