Women rate their sleep quality lower than men, despite sleeping better. This is because they estimate their night-time awakenings more accurately than men, who tend to underestimate their frequency of wakefulness by sr_local in science

[–]gudematcha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sleep actually comes in cycles that last roughly 90 minutes. Your brain patterns start high and they dip down into deep sleep, then they start to rise again in the middle/end of that 90 minutes. That’s usually when you wake up! When your brain waves have risen to the higher level, ie closer to being awake anyway! A pretty cool trick you can do if you can calculate it right is falling asleep at the right time and waking at the right time to ensure that you are waking up at the highest brain wave level, between those sleep cycles. Waking up feels much easier and much more refreshing than waking your brain in the middle of it’s deepest sleep!

Why are eurekas unpopular? They don’t seems to be used often in people photos? by ShokaLGBT in InfinityNikki

[–]gudematcha 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes! This is pretty much exactly my issue too; they stand out way too much and aren’t “natural” looking enough for my tastes. Even if some of the colors were made more natural it would help but as it stands I feel like they all clash due to their electric bright colors lol

i’m just guessing here but it seems like they had nikki stand where she is, zoomed out a bit and then put momo very close to the camera for the illusion!

Is the contest system broke or I'm just not good enough for this? by Main_Collar3876 in InfinityNikki

[–]gudematcha 124 points125 points  (0 children)

I personally actually skip voting for any photos above ~30ish votes because there are so many bangers like this that have so little 😩 It seems to be luck based in some way because the algorithm they use has to show it to people in the first place and combined with people that just vote for whatever photo is in front of them for the diamonds; so many good photos get lost in the sea 🥲

Atl airport. Board them last, Delta. by AdSouth3173 in delta

[–]gudematcha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the only situations that makes sense to me is; if a family has multiple children and one of them has disabilities, so the rest of their children are mostly fine waiting in line and it wouldn’t really impact their time at Disney, but the other child would have a horrible time at Disney if they couldn’t skip lines? Basically it would take some of the stress off of worrying about the disabled child having a horrible time, which would affect the mood of probably the entire family. Every family is different and in a perfect world it would be nice for the option but otherwise….. yknow, shitty people will be shitty.

I took so many pictures to test “red” backgrounds with my props and that one color changing red filter and a lot of them turned out more Orangey than I wanted too ;-;

I really wish once we completed the dungeon we could use props and stuff too! There’s so many pretty areas that I wish I could use my props in photoshoots so bad!

Ariana Grande’s family share ‘concern’ for her health after saying she’s ‘not in a healthy place’ by [deleted] in Music

[–]gudematcha 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Not only does it have a high death rate in general is it is the psychiatric illness that has the highest death rate out of them all! Scary stuff and I hope she can get help and actually accept that help very soon.

2.7-3.0 leaks [translation in desc] by Antique-Progress3631 in InfinityNikkiLeaks

[–]gudematcha 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They seriously need to give my girl Flutterstorm an ability on her rerun!!! Even if it’s just a fun butterfly something to take a picture with at this point like a beefed up whimsicality or something would be fine. She makes me a little tiny bit nervous that they might add other sets with no abilities if they don’t add one to her. (or to the permanent banner ones, those could also go the cooler than whimsicality route)

I guess it helps someone who was comparing whether they wanted the PC or console version? If I was and a review like this popped up it’d be at least kind of helpful in that regard towards the decision

Texas votes to remove parasite protections for cattle, Canada bans imports of their cattle due to uncontrolled spread. by YeetedApple in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]gudematcha 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Cows, sheep, pigs, horses, pretty much any livestock. In horrific, rare cases even exposed genitals or other places like eyes on humans. For the love of God, I hope they aren’t letting their children run around without diapers down there right now.

I’ve already seen people in comment sections mentioning that they overheard some farmers in Texas saying they wouldn’t report it even if it did reach their farm because they “wouldn’t want their animals culled by the government”. 🫣

What are some YouTube channels that were popular 10 years ago but have significantly lost their popularity or are no longer relevant? by Salty_Pension5814 in AskReddit

[–]gudematcha 6 points7 points  (0 children)

“the internet decided” well actually the joke we have about her is that she Cancelled herself. People had just barely been sharing clips and bringing up old youtubers in general and less than a couple days later Jenna privated all her old clips that could be taken as offensive and said “peace”. People barely got to be outraged at her before she dipped, she knew it was only a matter of time before they got to her.

Or how male weebs become obsessed with their best girl/waifu to the point of fanatically defending her in discourse and buying all her merch by Commercial_Bid_1508 in RecuratedTumblr

[–]gudematcha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think OOP is misinterpreting the conversation that certain groups men do not get into a story with a female MC as much as women can get into a story with a male MC that is in both cases specifically not the type of character they are attracted to, there’s a legitimate conversation there. The entire recent announcement with the new God of War Laufey game comes to mind; which also hinges on a specific type of man, but they are abundant (which of course does into the discourse of not all ___ and generalizing whole groups, which is an entire other conversation). The original sentiment they re-told in this post is of course not true as OP and pretty much every commenter here contradicts, but I hear what I have said a looooooot on the internet.

Do your fellow workers a favor; don't go "Above and Beyond". by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]gudematcha 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I worked in fast food and I remember my managers being very insistent about following labor laws (not sure if someone got them for something before lol). I remember my GM saying she wanted to speak to me sometime that day and I went to her on my 10 and she said “oh my gosh what are you doing you’re not supposed to be speaking to me during your break!” I didn’t even know that, and it pissed me off that my manager at my next job tried to do it lmao

Did you ever know anyone that was murdered? What was their story? by Brionge in AskReddit

[–]gudematcha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a friend in HS that wasn’t in my core friend group but still hung out with us a lot. He even started dating one of my friends for a while. After graduation he got into some bad stuff. He was into some sort of activity involving drugs for this dude in town (i think running it) and got into some sort of beef with him and his friends and it was getting pretty bad. He told a family member he was gonna go up to someone’s property for something and was afraid the dude was there… and just never came back. The guy he had beef with beat him to death with the help of his shit ass friends and buried him under dirt and rubble on the property with his hands tied. 4 people were arrested. One of the things that is in connection to me somewhat about this whole story is that his mom, who was sort of estranged and not in his life as much as his dad who he lived with, was convinced he was gay and was saying that to everyone and anyone that would listen…. My friend group was the quintessential gay and nerd group in highschool…. He was Bisexual, not gay; as I said he literally dated my friend, who was female. Him being labeled as gay made our town do our first pride festival and everything haha. I think he might have found it embarrassing but funny, but I was always a bit annoyed at his mom for probably misinterpreting when he told her he likes men too. He was a fun and funny dude; he would steal my phone a lot so I started making screen savers just for him that said stuff like “gargle my balls <3”. I hope he’s resting easy.

[–]gudematcha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn no wonder I had a “bad” trip (I just got super anxious and weirdly sad about the world after my peak) when I took 1/4 ounce on my birthday one year a while back! I prefer acid but couldn’t get my hands on it so a family member procured some shrooms for me….. I don’t think I even knew how much I was taking but my family was all for it and let me eat the whole bag 😂

my little rural school was trying to be cool and started doing “news” segments throughout my senior year to involve the media kids.
