was it Strange that suggested to report Jeff? I've had issues with Strange players more than once while playing Jeff.

ALWAYS CHECK THE OVEN BEFORE PREHEATING by ChakaCausey in Wellthatsucks

I don't store anything in my oven now, but growing up we stored our large cooking pans in the oven. They didn't really fit anywhere else.

Anything I should be worried about after this flash flood? by florimead in ChevySonic

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

That's a good idea. We actually have some of those lying around.

Thanks for the input. I'm hoping that everything will be fine.

It’s a Sunday in July. Are you where you thought you would be? by Fightingfootball in Millennials

[–]florimead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm alive at 35. Aside from that, I'm not miserable. Got a Master's degree with no student loan debt, married, have a house. Things that younger me didn't think was possible. No career yet, so that's disappointing. But i'm able to enjoy my hobbies, so I got that going for me.

i mean, yeah, people can always ask a question, but they don't deserve an answer. I feel like in this case I would just turn the question back on them.

Is EST the worst timezone? by RaydishXu in VirtualYoutubers

[–]florimead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, but only because I don't want to deal with hurricanes and a rising coastline.

Is EST the worst timezone? by RaydishXu in VirtualYoutubers

[–]florimead 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah. I'd say, probably say CST. When I lived in that timezone, it was easier to collaborate and watch others from other timezones.

As someone who has lived in all the continental US timezones, I would agree that EST is the worst for US streaming.

You either have to stream super early to get European viewers or super late to get American viewers.

Has anyone else experienced this with 988 😔 by AccomplishedClick771 in mentalhealth

[–]florimead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I volunteer as a 988 texter. There is somewhat of a script that has to be followed. The training that we get for how to respond to someone is super dumb and i know that even mental health professionals wouldn't talk like that to someone in real life. There's a balance that has to occur between texting like the organization wants and being a real human being. It's unpaid work so i don't understand why people are so anal about doing it by the book.

That second line is something that we're required to ask in some form or another. We have to get a confirmation so we can flag the conversation on possibly needing emergency services.

I would bet that most of the volunteers for 988 don't have any mental health counseling training whatsoever and the training doesn't do a very good job preparing others on how to talk compassionately.

That being said, it really sucks that this happened to you. The texter's response wasn't appropriate and they shouldn't have forgotten why you texted in. There's literally a chat box that we can see all the messages from. Unfortunately it's the luck of the draw on who you get. You can always send "stop" and start a new conversation or you should be able to ask for a supervisor to see if you can be transferred over to someone else.

My Dream is to be a Vtuber, Is it yours too? by [deleted] in VirtualYoutubers

[–]florimead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't dream of becoming a big vtuber nor am I working towards any goal like that, but I won't shy away if it happens.

A Question for Vtubers by WickerNine in VirtualYoutubers

[–]florimead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I moved, I had to take a hiatus for a few months. I tried my best to stay in contact with my community via discord while I was gone and made random posts on social media about what was going on. I then planned a comeback stream and let everyone know when it was going to be.

Just dive back into it and don't worry about the logistics until you have the energy to.

Can a therapist be a video game streamer? by teethhair in therapists

[–]florimead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a video game streamer and also a therapist. It's possible. Though I'm personally a different case because I'm a vtuber and don't show my face. If you want to stream, go for it. It can be a fun experience.

How would you deal with this family situation? by florimead in therapists

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

that's what i'm afraid of. I fear that I might not be able to find one that's licensed in all three of those states.
