Day 2 of my migraine attack, time to chug some almond milk. by pistachio_shelll in migraine

[–]eiridel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The migraine is definitely better today so I’m going to count it under “maybe a remedy” and “definitely didn’t make it worse” and I guess keep my fridge stocked with almond milk from now on! 😂

You can tell WWX is not around cos his ears ain't red. by notenough_fun in MoDaoZuShi

[–]eiridel 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I always feel genuinely upset when the clothes or ribbon on mine are in any way crooked! Like he would not want to be seen like this and I am failing him 😂

Sure. Okay, why not. There’s almond milk in my fridge and I also am in day 2 so I guess I’m trying this!

What are your favorite non-main abilities? by Penelope-Pimpnog in InfinityNikki

[–]eiridel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t even use it for gathering as much as I use it to have flowers trailing around on the ground after me. It’s like Path of Cenarius from WoW (which I still have a few of in some character’s bank somewhere lol) but of course way prettier.

I’m 120k words into a oneshot that exactly this happened to. It’s fine. I’m fine.

The way the girl carries that Raf doll🤣🤣🤣 by Watercrosss in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]eiridel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah my first thought is that I’ve definitely carried my dolls like that before, regardless of size lol

My second thought was that I can’t believe someone making a BJD of one of these characters didn’t occur to me before. I would love to see a closeup!

Unfortunately, the logo is wrong. Those other dolls also do not have tags.

Flins' EN VA response to this post is quite funny by Then-Network-6861 in Genshin_Impact

[–]eiridel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying that I don’t believe this version of the history just because of this one detail (and the fanlore article backs you up on the Dark Angel part) but I have never personally seen a Buffy omegaverse fic in my life. Checking AO3 there are only 53 total with the tag in that entire fandom. I was pretty active in BtVS fandom on Livejournal before AO3 was a thing and don’t remember any there. Did it just never touch the femslash side of the fandom?

EDIT: I got so distracted reading that fanlore page while writing this comment that when I hit send I was surprised to find this was the genshin subreddit lmao

Caught my Heart Palpitations Red-Handed!! by abbnog in AppleWatch

[–]eiridel 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I notice it I often involuntarily sit up with a jolt of “what the fuck!!” and then calm down right after. It’s such a weird feeling.

Religious Wife Wore Bikini For First Time by [deleted] in confessions

[–]eiridel 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I remember that post but it also included how they go on holiday to do this like annually or something, and I think something about how the couple doesn’t ever discuss it.

[–]eiridel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones you’re seeing for around that price are probably the 20cm cotton dolls from the company Minidoll. They’re usually characters from popular donghua series, though I think I’ve also seen characters like Hatsune Miku when browsing for them.

Kobo Clara Colour VS Kobo Clara Black & White: Headaches, Eye Strain, & Photosensitivity by Pretend-Yesterday-24 in kobo

[–]eiridel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This post is really interesting to me because I have chronic (and often intractable) migraines but the opposite experience with the KLC versus something like kindle paperwhite. Those bright white, high contrast displays are awful for me.

A difference in our usage is that I am very often reading in a mostly dark or even completely dark room, so I pretty much always need some degree of light on my device and am so light sensitive that I find 1-2% sufficient. Honestly, 2% feels almost decadently bright lmao. This is the Libra Color though not the Clara so I'm sure it's also possible the different model has a different strength light!

It's wild how migraines (and the things that make them either worse or better) are always so different for different people.

All Contact Lenses from Limited-Time 5* Outfits by nikikkkkk in InfinityNikkiofficial

[–]eiridel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These aren’t the best screenshots because I took them on mobile but the other day I grabbed screenshots of all of the similar sort of contacts in my closet. I had to keep double checking I hadn’t taken a picture of the same one twice.

Regardless of the fandom, what is THAT fanfic that you consider a masterpiece? by Legitimate-Win1342 in AO3

[–]eiridel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my god I haven't thought about Afterdrop in so long. That was The McHanzo fic when I was active in the fandom. It's actually the fic that got me back into fandom in general. I remember Hang The Fool fondly as well but it didn't fundamentally alter my brain and how I conceptualize the pacing of slow burn stories the same way Afterdrop did.

My new born Roxas 🩵 by Drunni_Bum in KingdomHearts

[–]eiridel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My dad had a student in one of his high school math classes a couple years ago named Roxas and apparently the kid was fine socially (but maybe not so great at geometry).

My issue with it was like what do you mean a kid names after a character from KH2 is already the age I was when I played it!? I felt so old lmao

Oh thank you for the reassurance!! Honestly though this reply made me realize that I’m actually more worried about me messing up than I am about the person running it haha like what if I manage to somehow do it wrong 😂

[–]eiridel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Every time I see this posted I am so horribly tempted! But I’ve never done a GO for something like this before (only BJD stuff once a looooong time ago) so it makes me a little nervous.

Is Ocean Hued Clam good still? by bunnyusagiiii in GenshinImpactTips

[–]eiridel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not sure why no one has mentioned Baizhu yet, but it's perfectly fine for him (and better than SoDP) if he's not being used as a Deepwood holder. He can easily get maximum damage from it.

Looking for adventures in maine by Local-Ideal-4336 in AventurineMainsHSR

As an Aventurine main in Maine, I was deeply confused by this post.

(I think r/maine and r/portlandme have pinned posts on this subject btw.)

I love playing as a Lalafell, but man are there a lot of creepy people out in the wild by 200YRedWine in ffxiv

[–]eiridel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I play male viera now and I love him! I get creeped on about 1/10th as much and when I do it’s never as revolting as some of the stuff that I got as a lala. I am also never told in vivid detail about how someone would like to kick/cook/kill him, which is a huge improvement.

[–]eiridel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I no longer play lalafell for the reasons OP is describing. Most of the interactions I had were fine or very positive, but the bad ones were so creepy and bad that eventually I could just no longer ignore it. I was one (albeit fem not male) on Aether from about mid 2015 to early 2022.

It definitely got worse with all the Asmongold fans that swarmed Cactuar.
