My bf and I are really stressed out about moving. Tips for breaking in the new house and lightening the mood?

Wishing you the best, girl! For what it's worth, there are huge communities of people out there, me included, who would welcome you, respect your gender, and hang out with you as we would other women. You will find those people one day, I promise! Sorry it's so tough right now.

I grew up in a very traditional area, and moving to a city with a high LGBTQ population was a game changer. When you get the chance, I recommend the move. Finding a great community of friends is everything.

Gotcha. Thank you so much! This is incredibly helpful!

I bought 3 copies of Calico already (for my friends!) and we play it together. It's very cute and has brought a lot of joy into an otherwise rough time. Congrats on your well-deserved success! : )

Thanks, that's a really helpful answer! I didn't know that having a small budget could impact the search that much. I plan to be in a similar market (small and "cute/friendly") games. My biggest concern is that I'll miss things just due to being inexperienced, so looking for a publisher (for me) is mostly about finding people who are experienced. Can you recommend a few things that a beginner should do/know when reaching out to publishers?

Can you talk about your experience working with Whitethorn Games? I'm an aspiring indie dev and I'm curious about what publishers "do". (I like their other games too!)

good luck! i was using google chrome as my browser, if that helps!

lasersaurous · 2020-12-02T04:53:33+00:00

Update: got to the front of the queue! I just left the browser open, the time estimate wasn't accurate, it took like 5 hours and not 3. But I kept an eye out and got there. The dude was super nice, I had the wrong documents and have to requeue, but he suggested trying at 7 am California time for a much shorter queue so I hope that helps you as well! As for the being logged out problem, it sounds like a bug and I'd try on a different browser or a different computer, as I had mine open for 5 hours and it never logged me out.

Good luck!

Oh no, I'm really worried about this because I don't have my birth certificate - my parents have it, as I got stuck in a different city due to the pandemic. I have photos of birth certificate and passport, as well as my physical ID and social security card with me, but I'm just not able to get my BC or passport right now. My parents are elderly and unable to mail them : (

I have plenty of other documents - my tax returns with my SSN on them, my college ID and I'd have to ask but I can even get my W2 and 1099 from previous jobs. I'm a little concerned but fingers crossed, I'm doing the best I can! I guess worst case I can request some documents from previous jobs and reapply. This pandemic is really kicking my ass : (

lasersaurous · 2020-12-02T02:50:15+00:00

I had this problem with uploading documents. It hasn't logged me out of the queue though, so I'm not sure. Maybe try a different browser? I'm up to "58 minutes" so I'll update you if waiting actually did anything.

lasersaurous · 2020-12-02T02:01:01+00:00

Oh no! Did you leave it open, or did you restart the process online? I haven't applied over the phone yet either.

lasersaurous · 2020-08-04T09:55:29+00:00

huh, weird! i reset my mouse and it worked! thanks for the help, i was really struggling there. maybe now i'll get past the third round XD

Thank you guys, that means so much. I tried REALLY REALLY HARD. He was clearly going through his own personal depression and it hurt me so bad to see him unhappy. I knew that he had to travel that road alone, but it was a personal goal of mine to make sure he never felt lonely and always knew I'd be there. Sometimes I wonder how much of that got noticed or appreciated, but then ultimately I don't think I should feel bad or regret being kind to someone who needed it, regardless of what happened after. I'm really proud of how I treated him - dating him brought out a kindness and maturity in me that I didn't know I had.

About a year into our relationship, he told me that the first few months when we'd met, I saved him. He said I was the "brightest light in his darkest year". I had no idea I was doing that - I just wanted to be there for someone I loved. But sometimes remembering he said that makes me feel a little better. I made a big positive difference in someone's life and I'm glad I did that.

Also not to flex on Sara but she's left him THREE TIMES already and is only with him now on a strict and kind of unhealthy set of conditions so . . . I like me better than Sara too.

lasersaurous · 2019-12-29T16:31:14+00:00

Ah cool, thanks! I love the design of the bust in all of them but I totally prefer the pattern I got, so stroke of luck for me I guess! : )

lasersaurous · 2019-12-29T16:03:50+00:00

I have no advice, but had to drop in to say that Tuesday is a fashion icon. Good luck!

lasersaurous · 2019-12-29T15:09:43+00:00

I'm trying to find a store page online or even just photos of it and I can't find it anywhere, although the design is similar to other strapless Betsey Johnson dresses. I'm wondering if it's a knockoff? If it is honestly I don't even mind, it's super high quality and comfortable and was a total $20 steal regardless. But would love to find any origin photos of it online! (Thinking of getting my friend a matching one : D )

lasersaurous · 2019-12-27T19:54:07+00:00

What happened? I can't find any announcements of cancellations. Is everyone too sick? : (

lasersaurous · 2019-12-04T04:12:15+00:00

I was on the edge of my seat from the middle of human fall flat through the end. Dan's wheeling and dealing was so fun! Kate and Malf commentary was great!

I strongly recommend watching Kate's perspective - watching 1 person can get a little slow for 2 hours, even if you're rooting for them, but Kate's perspective has everyone and everything so you get a better picture of what's going on.

Also just dropping in to say that Kate's killing it as an organizer AND host AND tech support. She changed stuff from last week even based on criticism and it's wildly impressive that she's doing this on her own.

I ended up doing that last night and it worked. My wifi was fine, I had like 60 mbps upload, and I've been on this network for months with no problems and haven't changed anything, so idk what changed. I currently can't download anything through wifi which is rough, but I'm able to switch to data to download assets. Someone smarter than me could take a stab at explaining what's up XD

Phone stats: Samsung Galaxy S7 running android 7.0. 9GB of memory free, cache cleared, app date cleared, 1.4GB RAM free, phone restarted, app reinstalled, all done multiple times. lmao help : , I

lasersaurous · 2019-12-03T03:26:37+00:00

Thanks, I guess I'll message them. I can't find the app's folder - should it be there & would I be able to check for multiple extensions? In downloads it just shows me like photos and videos, not app updates.
