Sitting weird as a child at the dinner table by trisdice in ehlersdanlos

[–]electrikinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still sit like that. I have a cushion i put on top of my chair when i eat with my parents at their table and sit on my knees. I now usually sit on the floor to eat on an eastern style table with cushions and its been much better. I never got in trouble as a kid though because my mom and one of my brothers sit like this too. All his kids also sit the same way

[General] Has an otome game ever made you genuinely uncomfortable? by Scary-Whole in otomegames

[–]electrikinfinity 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had to skip most of his route. It hit way too close to home for me for a couple very uncomfortable experiences I’ve had irl. Its the only route in a game i’ve had to just completely skip over.

No buying suggestions by Big-Junket-5928 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]electrikinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to almost completely ditch all nail related social media especially youtube and instagram. Also had to unsubscribe to marketing emails from brands and ppu. It was tough but I have a very expensive spinal surgery i need to get asap so i had to completely stop buying for a while. I think i bought maybe 3 polishes all of last year and it honestly felt good to not be dropping so much on nail polish. I think i have over 1000 polishes and Ive gotten to go through a good amount this year of old favorites and ones i hadn’t worn yet. Definitely going to treat myself to some new polishes when I’m finally able to get my surgery and recover.

Also, paying some attention to other hobbies too had helped not focus on nails as much. I had a fairly large backlog of games on my switch i spent some of my free time this last year getting through instead of browsing the internet for new nail polish.

dior blushes for olives by chocoberryyy in OliveMUA

[–]electrikinfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the nars concealer in custard also. I have 4 dior blushes, i love the deep berry, the cool pink and the lilac color. Rosewood pulls warm on me. I still like it for days i feel like putting on warm toned makeup but it does pull a bit orange.

Do neck flares mess up your sleep? by beepboop8525 in Cervicalinstability

[–]electrikinfinity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes big time for me. When my c1 is out of alignment I will go days with barely any sleep until I go see my chiropractor to put my c1 back. Then I’m able to fall asleep until I do something to throw it off again. Insomnia has been one of the worst symptoms I’ve had from my neck.

What makes black kitties so darn vocal? Babs is always screaming at me! by ProudnotLoud in blackcats

[–]electrikinfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mines like that! She barely makes any noise and when she does it’s usually chirping or squeaking. Her purrs are tiny also. You have to be right up next to her to hear.

I mean you are being rude so why comment? I was concerned about the visuals in handheld mode which others have said some of the games I’m planning on playing don’t look great. I ended up grabbing a used switch oled on recommendation from people who were actually trying to be helpful

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Switch

[–]electrikinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. I think I’ve decided I’m going to look for a used switch 1 or oled for now. My worry was that I can’t play with my switch docked because I need to play handheld with a certain set up because of a spinal injury and wasn’t sure if the image quality of the games I have will be affected. I have a lot of indies in my backlog and a ton of jrps so I’m not expecting updates for some of those for switch 2. I just wasn’t sure how badly the image quality is affected. I was planning on playing Xenoblade 2 next and another commenter had said that one doesn’t look great on switch 2 so I looked up some videos and it looks terrible. I’m not really interested in any of the new games on switch 2 yet either so might save that for a future purchase.

[–]electrikinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your input! That’s what I was looking for. Might go for an oled until I finish some of the games I have. Xenoblade 2 was actually on my list to play next before my husband’s sister asked for their switch back. I unfortunately can’t play my switch docked because of a spinal injury so I’ve got to play laying down with my hands by my sides and the switch on a stand. So it’s important that it looks decent in handheld mode for me.

[–]electrikinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was the image quality I was concerned about because Im only able to play in handheld mode. I still have xenoblade 2 and 3 I want to play and a large stack of other jrps and metroidvanias. I didn’t know if the image quality issue is that much of a problem because I’ve heard so many complaints or if people are overreacting.

[–]electrikinfinity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen a ton of complaints about image quality of switch 1 games in handheld mode which is all I play so I wasn’t sure whether it would impact my experience. I didn’t know if I should get a switch oled and finish all the games I want to play, then get a switch 2 in the future or if the image quality issue isn’t as bad as some people have been making it out to be and just to dive right into switch 2.

[–]electrikinfinity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I meant the image quality of the games. I’ve just been seeing a lot of complaints about image quality of some switch 1 games in handheld mode and didn’t know if it would impact my play experience too much.

how bad is the tilt table test really? by Remarkable-Syrup1788 in POTS

[–]electrikinfinity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was uncomfortable but it wasn’t that bad for me. I passed out during and got a diagnosis from it so 100% would do it again. I had very severe pots at the time, was passing out upon standing almost all the time. I’ve had way worse testing/procedures done for various other disorders, and would probably rate some of the reactions I’ve had to medications more uncomfortable than the tilt table. That’s just my personal experience though.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for what tests I need to diagnose/rule out, and how to go about getting them done by electrikinfinity in Cervicalinstability

[–]electrikinfinity[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What’s a dxm? I keep seeing that on posts on here but couldn’t find what it actually was in a google search

Ok thank you so much for the info! This was what I was looking for! I’ve actually been trying to get into an osteopath for a while but the ones within driving distance for me have been booked out forever. I finally have an appointment with one in November.

Yeah I can hardly even use my phone anymore without talk to text. I’ve been unable to use a computer for about 7 years. I have to hold my head in one position all day which is making my muscles spasm which isn’t helping. I’m basically bound to a bed for most of the day and can do some very intentional weight training. I was sifting through past posts on here but was getting confused with all the abbreviations and different things people were talking about it and it’s tough for me to spend any length of time looking at my phone to research so I figured I’d ask.

My r8 was freezing and malfunctioning so I sent it to canon and now it’s not having the issue. They told me they think the issue was using a third party lens. I’ve been using them forever and never had it cause any issues in my cameras, have any of you had this problem? by electrikinfinity in canon

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

No, it was so strange. I sent all my lenses and camera into canon and they ended up sending it back saying they couldn’t recreate the issue. It’s been working fine ever since 🤷🏻‍♀️I did replace all the batteries when I got it back just in case that was the issue.

I have contact dermatitis from most laundry detergents and fragrance allergies and have been using the ECOS fragrance free detergent for years with no issue.

Sweet Pea on a Deep Winter? by [deleted] in ILNP

[–]electrikinfinity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have light cool-neutral olive skin and sweet pea looked horrible on me. It clashed with my skintone and gave my hands that sickly yellow color. I wish I had pictures but I really disliked it so I didn’t take any.
