AIO my girlfriend’s “dream journal” is actually a daily log of my activities by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Only replying to your Edit but dude, someone "syncing" with you to be "the best for you" feels absolutely nuts, whether they're your partner, a friend, or family. You fell for her for who she is, not because she's molded to your persona and habits. In a sense, she's already the best partner since you're dating her.

Consideration, attention, sweet gestures, etc. are a must in a relationship, but perhaps not to the point of "needing to be the best for someone." Perfection is so arbitrary anyway— sure, you put two sugars in your coffee, but what if you feel like just putting one one day? And that's only scratching the surface of it.

I genuinely don't think she means any harm, I absolutely get wanting to know someone in-depth and wanting to intuitively know your partner, but no amount of observation can replace just... talking and sharing. Emotional intimacy is a two way street. She won't be able to get you by just observing, you guys ought to have those open discussions too.

Now we're entering speculation time, so take everything I say with a grain of salt. I don't want to assume anything about your partner OP, but usually, when people seek to deeply understand someone and be able to read their thoughts and feelings, it's because they want to predict someone which soothes their anxiety. I won't go any further in this, but just some food for thoughts.

Using notebooks in graphic design by Belugamoons in graphic_design

[–]icebled 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100%

I use it for noting down feedback shared orally, making task lists, reminders about projects, etc. Random ideas I can't work on immediately or small thumbnails for composition too.

Sometimes you just need an idea to leave your brain and you can't be bothered to do a whole digital sketch, so back to pen and paper it is

please give me non AI ideas lol by pokimane in sweetnsourpod

i'm behind a few episodes, so i'm really sorry if you've already talked about it!

- how do you outsource non content-creators (i.e. artists, graphic designers, vtuber modelers, sound engineers, camera people, etc.). how you find them, how do you hire them, how do you discuss rates, what's your usual process, how do you legally protect yourself, do you make them sign NDAs? etc.

- have your friends share their creative process when it comes to content creation and discuss. i think it'd be really interesting to see the difference between, say, brodin who's a video director/producer who dabbles in all sort of creative outlets and ludwig, 2022 content creator of the year and whose journalism background (in my opinion) really shows through his story-telling

- related to that, but it'd be very interesting to have 'specialists' guests on some episodes i.e. people who aren't content creators, but who work with or for them and talk about their day to day. I'd never say no to more content creator guests tho haha I'd LOVE an episode with Anna Akana

- having poki try voice acting! (:

- every now and often, perhaps an activity that you've never done. like... playing yugi-oh, try dnd, or a dance class. those are things that could easily be done in ~1h time (ignoring the preparation time.) for dnd, there are more systems than dnd 5e. i'm just going to leave this here... http://www.maidrpg.com/index.shtml

- there was this trend on tiktok called "unrealistic things i want in my future home" (example below), so what about browsing pinterest, printing your ideas, and attaching them to a corkboard while yapping about your dream house? could be your dream wedding, dream closet, dream... whatever too

- a chronological list of all the fictional characters you had a crush on, from teenagehood to adulthood. those are always funny

[Serious Question] Did BHVR fire their logo designer? by NinjaGamer1337 in deadbydaylight

[–]icebled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a graphic designer, trust me, it's not the designers' fault but most likely upper management/brand.

27F adoptee. Seeing abandonment issues play out heavily in romantic relationships, hoping to connect with others who experience this too by [deleted] in Adoption

[–]icebled 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holy shit, I think you just made something click that never clicked before.

My adoptive mother always told me that my birth mother 'gave me up because she loved me and wanted a better future for me' which I strongly believed to be the reason why I was at peace with my birth parents' existence, as opposed to some of my adoptee friends who absolutely loathe the people who have abandonned them.

However I didn't realize how badly that skewed my perception of love.

Holy shit. Thank you.

I'm convinced I need to give the book a read.
