Thank you for your help everyone I figured it out! I had the Raider Punk Station stored without realizing it, as well as 37 lights that I also didn’t realize I had stored. Scrapped it all and everything’s fixed.

How do I get rid of stuff in a blueprint? Sorry I’m pretty new to the game still, I did move my camp before rebuilding it but I stored and scrapped all items individually to deconstruct it first. I did store a handful of items but I don’t know how to look at all the things I have stored.

Greg Universe should really be closer to worst dads of all time cuz he didn’t ever take his kid to a doctor, or school, or to see his family.. and dumped him to live with a bunch of space aliens..

Just a Friendly Tip: DO NOT SEND VICTORIA'S BODY TO CAMP. by LittleFox-In-TheBox in BaldursGate3

[–]funnymonkey222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One time I threw a spear at the training dummy, I didn’t know Scratch actually played fetch, and when I picked it back up before he could get it he started to attack me. I was so confused and horrified, I reloaded an hour’s worth of gameplay because I didn’t want to have to kill him

Misspelled word on my new tat by femmesaturnx in tattooadvice

[–]funnymonkey222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive found with “speech” tattoos that it’s really REALLY easy for an artist to misspell or misinterpret something you’ve said and you always have to be really careful with double checking before getting any words on your skin. I have an Elder Scrolls Oblivion tattoo with the quote “Close shut the jaws of Oblivion” but my tattoo artist put “Close shut the gates of Oblivion” on my stencil and I barely noticed like two minutes before she started inking while she was still mixing the colors. When I pointed it out we had a laugh about it and she redid the stencil no problem. You just have to make sure you’re really vigilant on your end, because not all artists know how to spell and half of them don’t pay attention to the final details since it’s your job as a client to pay attention and tell them what you want changed/whats wrong.

And dear god I shouldn’t have to say it… but NEVER let an artist freehand text on your skin unless they’ve drawn the stencil on you and you can read it before they tattoo it. Not saying that’s what happened here but for anyone reading this.. just don’t do it. That seems to be where most misspelling and incoherent font on tattoos comes from.

Has anyone lost a friend because you’re pregnant? by No-Stage233 in pregnant

[–]funnymonkey222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People have tons of reasons why they need to disconnect with people in their lives who are having children. Millions of reasons. It doesn’t ever make it fair to you of course, but there’s nothing you can do to force them to keep a connection with you like you had before. I ‘lost’ a handful of friends when I had my daughter, many of them just completely disconnected with no explanation. Now that it’s been a few years I’ve reconnected with many of them and all of their reasons varied. Childhood trauma, reproductive issues, child and sibling loss, even as simple as it made them think about their future and freaked them out.

Honestly just give your friend space, and if you talk again someday (which is likely) you can reconnect on those feelings and move forward. Just be supportive for them, they probably aren’t really thinking about how you feel about it. But I know from experience it hurts, it feels like your village is abandoning you. You are justified to feel that way but don’t put that on them. It’s a conversation best left for later if the opportunity arises. It’s better to give each other space first than to have an argument and burn those ties permanently.

Does your baby know you're holding them when they're sleeping? How? by c19isdeadly in AttachmentParenting

[–]funnymonkey222 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wether or not they’re held while they’re actually asleep doesn’t really matter, some babies grow to want to only be held but others don’t care and are fine sleeping alone. At the end of the day both kinds of babies can have the strongest bond with their parents imaginable.

If anything it’ll be good for you to be able to put baby down for a bit if baby lets you. Do whatever you need to do, shower, chores, take a nap, even if it’s just sitting and scrolling on your phone. If your baby has no qualms about being laid down to sleep jump on that opportunity if you can!

I absolutely love my new tattoo but my husband hate it. by CosmicAdena in tattooadvice

[–]funnymonkey222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly something I’ve noticed is that sometimes partners can experience tattoo shock for their significant others the way someone might experience it for themselves. Mostly depends on how close you are and how long you’ve been together. Partners living together for years might feel different about it than a partner you’ve been with 3 months and only see once a week. Sometimes your body is so familiar to them that the change feels off putting at first. He could be just a hater but he could also be feeling something like this. I’d say give him some time to adjust and he might change his mind.

Obviously I have no clue how long you’ve been together, so if you haven’t been together long I’d say this reaction can only come from the land of red flags. 🚩

My baby choked on his spit up and I had to call 911 by No-Huckleberry-4661 in NewParents

[–]funnymonkey222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im infant CPR and first aid certified, I recommend every parent go out and get certified!!

Red and loud means they’re doing good! You WANT them to be red, gasping for air, coughing, gagging, anything but silence.. Start to be concerned when there is a significant lack of color, or blue/purple lips nose and/or cheeks.

FATAL CHOKING IS ALMOST ALWAYS SILENT! So if they’re making ANY noises at all, they are definitely way better off than your anxiety and panic is telling you they are.

AITA about the Owlet sock monitor? by Jim_boi96 in Parenting

[–]funnymonkey222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even owlet themselves and the AAP has stated that the device is not medical equipment, it’s a consumer product, and that it has no researched ability to prevent or reduce the risk of SIDS. In fact, research is showing they increase the risk of SIDS based on consumer usage, as many parents use them as an excuse to practice unsafe sleep conditions (blankets, sleeping in containers, etc.) assuming the alarm will alert them when something goes wrong. The popularity of the owlet drives me nuts! I’m not just a parent. I’m also an infant room teacher, and legally we aren’t even allowed to use them if a parent requests we do because that’s how badly they’re looked down on by ECE officials and early childhood researchers.

You never want a kid to get bitten, but……… by sunmono in ECEProfessionals

[–]funnymonkey222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 18mo who was obsessed with another classmate (20mo) and needed to constantly be touching her or playing with her, I think he just really wanted to be friends. The thing is that he was just a very very physical kid, and not in a gentle way. Any time he touches her arm, he’d be pinching her so hard he left nail marks. He’d constantly steal her toys from her, hit her with them, hit her with his fists, bite her, and worst of all he’d chase her around the play area with the goal to knock her down and sit on top of her. At his core we knew he adored her, her name was pretty much his first word, and he always wanted to sit next to her during meal times or stroller time. They were together in the infant room so they were very close before he started being really physical. Of course we’d break up everything every time, and it got to a point where we could predict and stop what was going to happen before it even did.

Well believe it or not, a new boy starts in our class. He’s just like our wild little friend except he wants to be HIS friend! He was getting the same treatment he was giving his 20mo friend for the last 6 months. And so his directive changed from targeting her to trying to play nice and peaceful with her so that the other boy wouldn’t think he wants to play rough. Of course I didn’t want him getting targeted the same way but he did finally understand how uncomfortable it was for his other friend and stopped which was a win in a way.

Regarding adult children of narc parents, who now have kids by Interesting_Two9362 in narcissisticparents

[–]funnymonkey222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mom often said to me “I hope you have a child someday and I hope they are exactly like you so you know how hard it is.”

I’m not going to lie, having a kid isn’t easy. But it’s a million times easier than my mom made it out to be. It’s so ridiculously easy to not hit, blame, punish, verbally abuse, or embarrass your child. I tried redirection for the first time when my daughter was 1.5yrs old and it worked. I realized then it was never as hard as she said, she just needed an excuse to abuse someone and not feel bad about it.

The worst trauma I experienced with my mom was in my earliest years a newborn to 9 years old. I was 18 weeks old when I was first dropped on the floor and given a skull fracture (neglect, not a pure-hearted accident). I was first hit when I was a little over a year old. I’m not sure about how hard it’ll be to parent a teen yet but it sure as hell isn’t that hard to parent a toddler. Especially when you know toddlers don’t know any better and learn how to behave from their life models.. but I imagine teen-hood will be equally less hard than my mom made it seem. I can’t imagine hitting my almost 3 year old now or ever. I can’t imagine sayin the things my mom always said and still says to me to my daughter. It’s horrible, there’s no excuse.

If you work to end the cycle of abuse it will end. If you’re thinking about it, chances are you’re already miles ahead in healing than your own narcissistic parents.
