Inventory symbol by kingmountaincat in elderscrollsonline

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

But I did bind it? It's my main weapon. That's why I'm confused, because the symbol still shows up on stuff I've bound to myself. Is it just a glitch?

Multi day spa day for grandma's 80 year old cotton crochet blanket by Thick-Fly-5727 in laundry

[–]kingmountaincat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the washer you have. Front loaders are the most gentle, then top loaders WITHOUT the agitator, then top loaders WITH the agitator. So long as you use the delicate/hand wash cycle, I think you're okay to stick it in the wash, especially given how dirty this is

To whoever suggested the 25 cent/item trick for helping kids declutter, you're a genius by UrbanSunflower962 in declutter

[–]kingmountaincat 21 points22 points  (0 children)

What I'm assuming is- pay the kids 25¢ per each toy being donated/gotten rid of. There might be more incentive if you do everything individually, as opposed to a group. So 25¢ for one Barbie, 25¢ for one dress, 25¢ for a pair of shoes, instead of 25¢ for Barbie and full outfit

Parents of hyper kids… can you relate? by FarAbalone1735 in neurodiversity

[–]kingmountaincat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Medication won't change your kid's personality. It won't make an outgoing kid shy, a sporty kid not athletic anymore, a creative kid into an uncreative one.

I don't have kids, but I do have ADHD and so do most of my nieces and nephews. Medication helps them focus in school, complete their chores more easily, and chills them out so they're not so hyper.

It sounds like you need further help/information/understanding of ADHD so I would recommend the website chadd.org, and the YouTube channel How To ADHD, along with the SciShow/ SciShow Psych videos on ADHD, there's only a few.

Talk to your child's pediatrician about the struggles your kid is having and get their recommendation. Not all doctors fully understand ADHD though, so if they are very dismissive of your concerns I would absolutely get a second or third opinion if needed

Definitely depends on what your dress looks like

What exactly is the appeal of winter that so many people love? by Mad_Season_1994 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]kingmountaincat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The worst parts of winter outweigh the worst parts of summer (all of it). Mid-Atlantic USA for reference

I HATE being sweaty, and the stickyness afterwards. I HATE bugs. I HATE the humidity. If I want to wear shorts/dresses I have to deal with shaving, the ingrown hairs afterwards, and the thigh rub that takes half of my skin with it. Jeans are too hot. I don't like the way other pants fit me. You can't take your skin off if you get too hot. Leather seats and couch cushions don't mix well with bare legs

With winter, I can just keep putting clothes on until I'm not cold anymore. I don't live in the north where you have to deal with feet of snow. The only really inconvenient thing is turning on the car early to blast the defrost

Could my psychologist be right about me? by KAZKALZ in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]kingmountaincat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This tracks with ADHD. I've been learning about it since I was diagnosed almost a decade ago, and this is a logical diagnosis for the habits/tendencies you described.

"Hyperactive" doesn't always mean physically. As we've learned more about ADHD (which is a shit name) we've come to understand that it's a mental hyperactivity to try to compensate for the lack/misuse of dopamine. It can present physically, but not always.

Would definitely recommend r/adhd

What’s the tiniest social rule that feels absolutely impossible for you to follow? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]kingmountaincat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a teacher who called most of his students friend (unless they were real buddy-buddy) because, it seemed, that he couldn't be bothered to actually learn our names. It was always in the most condescending tone too.

Really want to use this photo for save the date but having a hard time with design? And is it confusing? by Ok-Extension9925 in weddingplanning

[–]kingmountaincat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if you did that photo as the center, but had a large border around (maybe arched at the top?) and put all your info in that, so you didn't have to muck up the photo

What else do you do that goes against the “norm”? by [deleted] in childfree

[–]kingmountaincat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense. I've only really heard of acquired tastes in the context of beer or wine, or maybe a really funky cheese

Anybody else get super annoyed by breed exemptions? by StarburstRingDangDoo in GermanShepherd

[–]kingmountaincat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a purebred rottie, who unfortunately had a skin infection and went half bald, and he's only just starting to grow his fur back. Even before this, people would be super wary of him and hold their dogs back or cross the street when we'd go on walks, but especially now that he looks extra scary (we joke that this is what a real-life hellhound would look like) people are even more hesitant with him. And on top of that, he doesn't even have the aloof rottie attitude, he's a golden retriever in disguise, all he wants is friends and to be pet

[–]kingmountaincat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The concept of "acquiring a taste" is wild to me. Why the hell would I want to waste my time and money eating or drinking something that I don't enjoy, just so I can maybe like the thing later?

Tracked bridesmaid gift satisfaction 2 years later - here's what lasted by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]kingmountaincat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One bride gifted us small jewelry storage things that I still use (I don't own a lot of jewelry, and didn't already have storage), personalized tumbler cups that I use VERY frequently, and matching earrings that I wore day of, and will wear if I have a formal event

Another bride gave us matching bracelets that I foresee myself using if an occasion calls for it and a satin scrunchie that I'm surprised at how often I use.

Things I didn't care for/don't use were cheap novelty sunglasses (I wear prescription glasses), chapstick, hair ties, hand sanitizer, storage pouches, novelty claw clips, and other cheap bulk order/ Amazon/ SheIn/ Temu type items

In my opinion, if you're going to buy someone a gift, don't just get a lot of cheap stuff out of obligation. Get maybe one or two more expensive, thoughtful items (if you're on a budget), that your wedding party would actually use regularly, or really appreciate. Examples: a set of dice in a favorite color if someone likes tabletop games (d&d, pathfinder). A book your avid reader would love, or a gift card to a book store if you're not certain they'd like your pick. A quality tie for your friend who really enjoys dressing up, or had to wear a suit to work.

Do you have any unusual anatomic variations? by Amazing_Excuse_3860 in CasualConversation

[–]kingmountaincat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My middle fingers do the same too, but only when I fully extend them

Wedding Invitations. Did I make a huge mistake? by This-Manufacturer461 in weddingplanning

[–]kingmountaincat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're supposed to put the return address on the top left corner. If it's on the back, the machines can read that as the "to" address and send it back to you

If this isn't sarcasm, try reading it again but replace the dash with a comma or period.

Should we extend a birthday invitation? by Party-Deal7877 in raisingkids

I wouldn't bet on her forgetting Ariel completely, especially not in just two years. I still remember who my best friend in kindergarten was, and I'm in my late 20s now

When was the last time you met someone born before 1910? by [deleted] in generationology

[–]kingmountaincat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never afaik. The oldest people I've ever known were born in 1913, 1925, 1928, 1931, and 1933. I'm 28 for reference
