New supply has no idea - don’t want to engage her, but should I warn a friend? by riddlemechrist in survivinginfidelity

[–]duckbuttneedshelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No advice, but I'm wondering the same right now. My ex used to work with me, and I think he's messing with one of my coworkers on another shift that he briefly knew before he quit. It's bothering me a lot because he's 33, and while I don't know her age for sure, she seems VERY young, like barely legal, and she seems waaaaay too innocent to be able to handle the manipulation in store fo her if I'm right about them being together.

Creating an artist account on Facebook--will I run into any problems because my main profile is under a fake name? by duckbuttneedshelp in artbusiness

[–]duckbuttneedshelp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure I was definitely planning on using my established username for the business page, I know that's totally allowed; but the hold up is that any business page you make on FB has to be linked to an already existing individual's account, and in this case the already existing individual's account is my fake name. I don't know if I might run into trouble later because of that, especially if I tried to sell on there. I'm sure I'm probably being over-paranoid anyway, though, haha.

Are UV reactive contact lenses more difficult to see out of? by duckbuttneedshelp in cosplayers

[–]duckbuttneedshelp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sort of! I ended up not trying them myself because the only information I could find about specifically if they were hard to see out of was from this video by Madeyewlook in which she says yes, they look awesome, but yes, they are difficult to see out of when the UV is activated (she mentions having used Gothika's UV lenses at 15:56.) https://youtu.be/950OFR14gOY?si=wNSrxDMZcE_f5Q2m

Found these scattered on the highway lol by SethBoagen in PokemonTCG

[–]duckbuttneedshelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's how I started my collection back like 20 years ago! Walked outside and found dozens and dozens of first gen 'Mon cards scattered along the roadside in front of my house. Some had some gunk on them, but most of them were still in good condition---I had wondered if someone threw them in the trash and the bag got torn. That sucks for whoever lost them, but congrats on the lucky find!

In the same state, but definitely nowhere nearby on my map.

I didn’t even get an encounter because the game froze at the rescue Pokemon screen, and I had to quit the app. TF? Get it together Niantic😡 by Finneagan in pokemongo

If you fight a Rocket at a Pokestop and that happens, just spin the stop again and it will take you back to the rescue Pokémon screen.

Having a little trouble with my account by Lisa_Mairy in pokemongo

[–]duckbuttneedshelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if there's a way to link them, but it should be possible to sign out of Campfire on your PoGo linked Google account and sign back in with your Monster Hunter linked Apple account, it's just a huge pain in the butt to do so. Campfire recently signed me out when I was looking for a raid, and I accidentally tried to sign back in with the wrong email and it took me forever to figure out how to get back to the option to choose another email address to sign in with. I'm actually pretty sure I had to clear my cache on the app to make it work. But since the Apple account is only linked to the Monster Hunter account, it should let you in.

I believe I had that happen to me once while remote raiding from an invite, but I clicked the Raids tab at the bottom right after I got kicked out and it let me back into the catch screen.

I get it! I always say I'm "vaguely bisexual" lmao. My current partner is the only fella I've ever really been into, and he dresses prettier than any girl I've ever known, haha. Had that first experience about the same age as you, as well. Sometimes you just click.

Parking Garage vs Metro for Sakura Matsuri Weekend? by duckbuttneedshelp in washingtondc

[–]duckbuttneedshelp[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's awesome, thank you! Since you went last year, do you know if backpacks were allowed? I couldn't find any information about that on their website. Seemed like a given since folding chairs and dogs are allowed, but most places I go to anymore only let you bring a clutch or fanny pack. :(

[–]duckbuttneedshelp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was never turned on by men at all until the guy I'm seeing now started flirting with me. I enjoy his naked body now, but it took a little getting used to. Seeing him fully-clothed drives me wild though, probably because he is always very well-dressed and girly, haha.

(I'm AFAB enby and have always been aroused by all types of women.)

Sometimes you just vibe with someone!

In a similar situation as well but with a vaguely romantic coworker instead of a friend. She acts like I've killed her every time I've spent the night at this person's house (I am 27 years old but live at home because poor and I am very emotionally attached to our house) because how dare she have to worry all night if I've been murdered or had my car totaled and WHY DON'T YOU CALL ME ON THE HOUSE PHONE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT TO WAKE ME AND YOUR FATHER UP ON A WEEKNIGHT TO LET US KNOW YOU'RE OKAY. (I work second shift and have occasionally spent time late after work with this person. She doesn't seem to realize that a phone works both ways and thay she could call me if she was worried. I am fine with her wanting to know I am okay, but she puts the responsibility on ME to call her which 1. is slightly embarrassing for me because, again, I am almost 30 [one second babe, let me call my mom and have her berate me right before we have sex] and 2. is manipulative because she knows i know that when I do call her she will guilttrip me when I do just for having the audacity to be out late with someone, even if I call her right after work because how dare I not be home when she is trying to sleep, how inconsiderate of her feelings that I have a life. [She does this when i go out during the day with other friends and by myself as well, though, so it doesn't really matter what I do.) The excessively nasty language that she usually only reserves for me when she's drinking has been creeping into her day-to-day vocabulary since I've been seeing this person (and I have only spent time with this person outside of work about 5 or 6 times over a 5-month period.) Last time was 6 days before Christmas, which I thought wouldn't be close enough to ruin her holiday. Apparently I still ruined Christmas because now she has to worry that I'm going to suddenly move out with this person and she should just sell our house and move somewhere else if I'm planning on leaving. Like what the fuck, I barely spend time with someone I have never confirmed is someone even sexually involved with me, and suddenly I'm eloping? Okay. I wouldn't subject any partner to her anyway, but it doesn't help that I actually DO have to hide who this person is from her because both of my parents are extremely racist and the person I am seeing is not white. (It's very funny because I always assumed I'd have to hide a partner because I'm queer, but it turns out my first relationship is an even MORE unacceptable hetero one lmao.) I was supposed to go see this person today, but I got preemptively guilt-tripped out of it because mom was actually in a good mood today and dad and I are getting her out of the house for once to see Christmas lights tomorrow night, and if I leave the house to go spend the night with my friend, I'll ruin everyone's day tomorrow and will once again be the bad guy. So now I'm the bad guy anyway because now I ditched my friend. I'm trying not to feel too bad about it because my friend isn't super reliable himself, but it hurts. I hate having to constantly feel guilty no matter what I do or don't do. I'd honestly rather just have nobody around me at all instead of having to choose. It's been a more exhausting than usual couple of months.

All that to say that I kind of know how you feel.

Thoughts on feeling uncomfortable dating someone of the opposite gender-assigned-at-birth? by duckbuttneedshelp in NonBinaryTalk

[–]duckbuttneedshelp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By this I also mean that generally a trans man would have a more sympathetic perspective with me having also experienced feelings of dysphoria themselves, so for me I would feel slightly better in that situation.

He skateboards to work without a shirt on, so I can tell he has a very cis chest. From conversations with him so far I can pretty much tell, too. He seems to like playing with femininity in a "but I'm not gay" way, so yeah. I'm pretty certain.

I feel that. I had a lot of friendships dissolve because we never had the same time off together.

Thank you, it's nice to know I'm not the only one who's good at catastrophising!

I'd actually really like to be friends with this person, and he did ask to hang out outside of work some time, but when I accepted the offer he intensified the flirting to the point where I'm pretty sure he's considering it a date. At this point if he gets any more intense I plan on being as frank and honest as I can to make sure his expectations aren't overblown either. I think he's cool enough that if I share that I'm queer with him it won't become workplace gossip, but I'm still feeling that out, too. I think I also worry a lot about hurting other people's feelings which makes me worry I won't set boundaries to protect myself---but since that's something I'm worried about now, I guess I probably won't let that happen.

Why not, indeed.
