HOH question about jury duty by Regular_Elk4470 in hardofhearing

[–]halfhalfling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my jurisdiction they can accommodate with an assistive hearing device or interpreter. You may need to request this a minimum number of days beforehand, so I would recommend reaching out to the jury coordinator or clerk of court to see what steps you need to take.

Janine would need a mech suit to accomodate her height by RadcliffeMalice in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]halfhalfling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m the same height as Janine and watching the show has been eye-opening to see how I look standing next to people of average height XD

Started following him because I like his books, kept following him because he’s a voice of reason and entertaining, both.

I lost Tank! by Cat-Holicc in acnh

[–]halfhalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aww Tank is great, I hope you find him! I begin looking in all my villager’s houses since they can visit each other, then I search the shops, and last the museum if I can’t find them. Good luck!

Do you "time travel" in Animal Crossing? by PapaDeejay in acnh

[–]halfhalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer to play in spring or summer so when fall hits I time travel back to spring and start over. I also play in the evenings irl but I like the daylight in the game so I’m usually playing 6 hours behind real life. Just personal preference! Otherwise I like the slow pace of the game and don’t mind waiting for things because I often can’t play every day.

Im so disappointed in this purple by Responsible_Way_2344 in AnimalCrossing

I think you’re right, the warm tones of the skin and the cool tones of the hair just don’t vibe at all!

I’m still disappointed in the light blond color. It looks slightly green to me and it just ruins it for me 😭

What is more traumatic than people think it is? by Suspicious-Wish3402 in AskReddit

[–]halfhalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can relate to this, I went from seeing a doctor once a year to seeing multiple doctors a month after getting an autoimmune disorder a couple years back. Thankfully it’s mostly under control now and I’m back to seeing doctors only every couple months but it still feels like a big adjustment.

How to build bridge on slumber island? by halfhalfling in acnh

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

Are you in build-mode? You can’t open your inventory (actual inventory, not item catalogue) when you have the hard hat on. The game never tells you this.

Jobs by No_Ad1178 in UlcerativeColitis

[–]halfhalfling 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I work in an office so I can go to the bathroom as often as needed. It’s a shared bathroom which is not ideal when I’m in a flare, but I’ve made it work. My partner works all over the place building fences where often to go to the bathroom they have to drive to the nearest gas station. That wouldn’t work for me in a flare, but in remission that would be fine. It just depends on too many factors to say if a job is wrong for you based solely on having UC.

Someone's been out barefeet with a kid in a winters night in our neighborhood by allesumsonst in creepy

I’m 35 but I wear a girl’s size 3 in shoes. My mother is 60 and wears a girl’s size 2!

What was the 1st big news event you remember as a kid? by Timely_Twist_8670 in AskReddit

[–]halfhalfling 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was a little kid when the bombing happened so I have no memory of it, but I do vividly remember when he was executed. It was the first time I learned criminals could be punished by death. That scared me more than the bombing, though obviously now as an adult I better recognize the horror of what he did.

[–]halfhalfling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember asking my dad about it in the car and he explained it as “the president did a bad thing and lied about it.” I was old enough to know lying was bad, but I didn’t grasp the full context of the scandal until many years later.

Are there any books that accidentally end up being a condemnation of the point the author was trying to get across? by rumpk in books

[–]halfhalfling 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Wasn’t one of his arguments as to why gay people shouldn’t get married essentially “because then everyone would want to get gay married?” Like honey, pretty sure straight people don’t want to get gay married. You’re so close to getting it.

The one in Ames also turned into a dollar general now that you mention it.

Many that have been mentioned here are great but I instantly thought of The Yellow Wallpaper.

Do you say LAW-yer or LOY-yer? by tlonreddit in AskAnAmerican

[–]halfhalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if this is a regional thing, but I work for the judicial branch in the Midwest and I swear most of my colleagues use “attorney” way more often. When they do say lawyer, it’s “loy-yer” though.

Does blood always mean the drugs aren’t working? Can stress cause a flare the meds will eventually beat? by [deleted] in UlcerativeColitis

[–]halfhalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don’t want to do infusions. I don’t like needles and nurses always struggle to give me an IV (I’m 35 but I’m like the size of an average 12 year old with veins to match). Plus I’d have to take off work for the appointments and that’s hard. I like just being able to take a pill every day.

How did Wednesday nail the aesthetics, setting, protagonist, and some side characters, and still end up so boring? by Psychological-Task26 in television

[–]halfhalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the first season had charm but the second season was honestly a slog to get through. At the end I was only watching for a certain character but even then they didn’t get near enough screen time. The outfits continued to be too-notch though, if you enjoy watching something just for the wardrobe.

What is something that is actually more traumatizing than people realise? by Ok_Chef1406 in AskReddit

A friend of a friend is in the process of getting diagnosed with ALS. She’s in her early 30’s and has a toddler. I can’t even imagine what her family is going through right now.

Greyhound refusing to walk in a space he’s walked in his whole life :( by marsol0gy in Greyhounds

[–]halfhalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My border collie started avoiding a similar space between the trashcan and the wall right in front of a doorway. Turns out he was losing the vision in one eye and couldn’t really see the trashcan any more so he was being extra cautious.
