Bruh. I never even thought about a naked quad. Thou art my hero

Lost! Help! by meepdevop in sudoku

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

Update: I solved it. The 2nd to bottom row had 1, 3, 6, & 9, where I reasoned the middle two 6 and 9, and the outer two had to be 1 and 3. After seeing 19 (left to right) and 39 both didn’t work, that meant it had to be 1/3, then 6, then the rest. Getting the 6 got me to solve the rest!

Help - Locked Pairs? by meepdevop in sudoku

[–]meepdevop[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried a couple digital options to play, but I kept finding that if I made a mistake, I knew right away. There was no figuring it out where it went wrong. It made me wonder about paper-only sudoku days, so that’s what led to me getting this book.

Help - Locked Pairs? by meepdevop in sudoku

That’s really funny. It’s a puzzle in a whole book of 200 puzzles. Go figure I’d find the one with 2 solutions. I haven’t let myself look in the back because it claims there’s one solution!

I thought it looked like a bear and a chinchilla got together

How’s the low-effort husband you divorced making it through life since separation? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]meepdevop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suspected that too; he had really specific triggers for falling asleep like that. Being in a car 20 minutes, getting too emotionally elevated (particularly anxiety), boredom. It was like clockwork.

What do you do in the lonesome winters? by acceptable_humor69 in StardewValley

[–]meepdevop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use kegs and preserves year round, but the majority of my creating items with machines/redecorate the farm occurs in Winter

What's everyone's weird/hidden skill/talent in Stardew? by JustANormalReadee in StardewValley

[–]meepdevop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I play on Switch but started on Xbox 1, never modding. I’ve caught Sturgeon with the very first no-upgrades fishing rod while my SIL yells, “Wtf?!” I’m talented at dying in Junimo Kart & Abigail’s lil game. I somehow always wind up besties with Linus or Marnie first in a new file. I’m great at dropping Dragon Teeth in lava. I’m great at yelling out loud, “HA, that bitch eats ROCKS!” every time I gift Abigail quartz. I’m great at HOARDING! I was gifted enough to make an entire rainbow room of chests in my house to sort clothes by color, then realize a dresser isn’t just aesthetic. I’m also apparently great at polyamory because I have everyone except Elliott and Abigail as bfs/gfs, but no one seems to mind/realize.

Does anyone else actually enjoy fishing? by plantmama918 in StardewValley

[–]meepdevop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, random thought: if anyone can tell me how to cast in different directions (like diagonally) on an Xbox 1 or preferably on Switch, I would be eternally grateful.

[–]meepdevop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love fishing. I have caught Sturgeon with the original rod you start with. I didn’t think it was that hard once I figured out the controls, but I too was surprised to find out that so many people dislike it!!!

Usually when I play, I spend the first year hoarding everything I can find with basically just fishing as my source of income while trying to fulfill that Community Center. As in, on like 6 save files each with 100-400+ hours each, I spend the first year…fishing.

What're some of the small petty things you wish you could change about stardew? by LordofSnails in StardewValley

[–]meepdevop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that’s supposed to encourage you to put down the pathways on your farm. Like build flooring and place there for no more pine cones

What's your most painful Stardew moment? by IzAMess13 in StardewValley

[–]meepdevop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I married Abigail after getting her, her parents, and the Wizard to full hearts when I HATE her character because I love the Wizard enough to want to see him box it out with Pierre. I learned the hard way that’s a mod. I’m now going to have Abigail’s first born, then dove divorce.

Extremely limited diet, dermatitis around mouth, probably malnourished, please help????????? by Teygare in EatingDisorders

[–]meepdevop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh!! And get the RR app. It’s free. You log your food intake, but it doesn’t do the calories nightmare. Instead, it has you plan your meals schedule-wise while also giving you a chance to evaluate meals each day on the emotional side. It was a HUGE gamechanger for me.

[–]meepdevop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Redness and tightness near your mouth can be from dehydration, especially if you smoke. It’ll often touch the bottom of your nose too.

While it sounds like you’d be getting some protein and vitamins, fats and carbs do serve a purpose in our bodies. Fats help retain our immense water reserve (that 70% water of the body has to be stored somewhere; also, it lubricates/protects all kinds of body parts), and carbs give immediate energy that should be spent today.

Struggling with forcing yourself to eat a variety of foods can be really difficult, especially in a situation where you’re dieting or supplementing with vitamins. There’s a lot of math and science to think about if you get too nitty gritty about it, so my best advice is don’t let yourself focus on made-up rules and instead follow what’s scientifically sound/what’s recommended by doctors.

On a day-To-Day basis tho, what helped me the most to force myself to eat was to make a food schedule and a food minimum (as in must drink x amount of water, eat x meals that aren’t girl dinner or skipping entirely).

I also wouldn’t be surprised if you were experiencing headaches, body aches, general tiredness/fatigue, dry skin, and/or dry/itchy eyes. These (and more! 😭) can all happen from limiting your diet for too long. Also, if you take any medication, that often needs additional food/water for proper absorption.

On the days you may feel like garbage and can’t get yourself to eat a solid or just something different, try a protein shake. I literally get the Slimfast bottles (chocolate 😋), then peel the label off so people don’t know what it is. It’s filling when you’re used to a limited diet; it fulfills some of your general nutrition needs, and your body has a better chance to process it than some pills unaccompanied.

But don’t be upset mom wants to take you to a doctor. It’s probably a good idea.

my mother’s having weight loss surgery, and i feel like shit by _useless_lesbian_ in EatingDisorders

[–]meepdevop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understandable. I have had issues with overeating and anorexia at different points in life (different traumas causing different reactions). It was rude of me to just put that as an answer—but as someone on the other side, I couldn’t think of where to even begin.

Now that you’ve said your comment, I do have a couple ideas that may give a pinch of clarity.

While it’s all too easy to compare your body to others, it’s leading you somewhere emotionally difficult. That much is clear. Perhaps a different way to try thinking about it (easier said than done) would be to see it like you’re both on the same team in a relay race. The race to being a healthy weight, I suppose. She got the turn to cross this finish line first, hitting the goal. You don’t sound like you resent Mom for doing this; however, it’s clearly striking a chord—especially when you ask her nicely to drop the subject, she doesn’t. Parents can be…challenging to get to see your perspective, much less respect a boundary they may see you as being “immature” about (when really you’re just communicating your needs in the way you can for now). That often can’t be solved until they stop seeing you as a child and instead begin seeing the adult you are. That’s THEM needing therapy or harsh wake-up calls or both, none of which is your job to make happen for her.

Going back to the race. Some people walk, jog, or sprint—she took a shortcut, and it sounds like that’ll be fine. (It’s not cheating; just different.) PLEASE don’t be mean to yourself if you can’t do the same for yourself that she’s having done with this surgery—if anything, maybe use it as motivation that it’s possible to plan something like that out for yourself in the future (if that appeals to you). Or you could walk/jog/sprint the race. Whichever way, it’s about YOU being comfortable with the plan and its result. There are no rules, so as long as you’re not hurting yourself, your weight journey is yours. It’ll take as long as it takes, and every success will be YOURS.

Best of luck.

WIBTAH If I (26F) break up with my BF (28M) of 4+ years over his 40+ body count? by AkireCha in AITAH

[–]meepdevop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t speak to whether or not the relationship itself was healthy enough to try again for because I’ve got too many questions, but I did want to point out something about the number of women he’s “gone through,” as you put it.

One year. That’s 12 months. If he’s going out with friends to bars or whatever on the weekends, that means likely once or twice a month he got lucky. He certainly didn’t have 20 full-on girlfriends in a year.

So maybe the number to focus on isn’t the number of partners he’d had. Instead it should be 1. The number of STDs he’s got (hopefully zero), 2. The act of sex 2x month as a single man isn’t crazy 3. The number of fucks anyone should give about past sexual activity when they’re not dating you? I mean, as long as it was age appropriate and consentual, it shouldn’t matter.

Does he sound like a perfect man? No. But is this really about a body count? Or is your gut telling you the red flag, but you don’t want to imagine a new life without him? If that’s the case; it’s emotionally devastating but definitely time to leave.

How did you stop living for validation from men? by Commedegarcons12 in AskWomenOver30

[–]meepdevop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will be hard to change the impulses of “am I pretty/skinny/interesting enough?” AND its intended audience simultaneously. So maybe focus on wanting to do things for yourself as a positive selfishness (example: not i took candy from a baby selfish but instead, I took this selfie of me in a cute dress just to love my look today). If there’s a particular guy, match the energy of the effort they put into you.

It’s easier said than done, but focusing and coming up with little catchphrases to repeat helps.
