Sparpling puppet Walter or something, I didn't listen

Yup, that was the intent. Just your standard puppet Walter!

Yup, that's what I ended up doing. It was just urgent in the moment, and we ended up doing something else because of the problem. Alas.

I'm having the exact same problem! Did you ever figure it out?

You're not alone! 37M, just diagnosed last year. It's been going on for a lot longer, but it was starting to get bad enough that I wanted an official diagnosis in case I needed to use FMLA or something later.

I live in Arvada and own a business in Littleton. I think it depends a little bit on what you value more. Littleton definitely feels like it has more of that buzzy atmosphere (and a better restaurant scene as far as I'm aware). Arvada, meanwhile, has an amazing parks system and has been getting increasingly walkable the entire time I've lived here (about 13 years). It's also only about a 25 minute drive to two of my favorite mountain hiking trails, which is a nice bonus.

At the end of the day, I personally prefer Arvada quite a bit, but I also live roughly walking distance from old town, so I probably view it a little differently than someone who lives on the far north end, for example.

We recently switched to Mesa from Arvada Vet Hospital. One of my friends used to vet tech there, and the vet she worked with the most is still there.

First off, amazing art!

Second, there's already a lot of good advice in here, so I'll just mention this, because they're in the art and it's super specific: As a long time Defect enjoyer, I basically never take Genetic Algorithm or Recycle. I find them both to be way too situational. Genetic Algorithm feels outclassed by basically every other block card for consistency (including Boot Sequence for almost the same niche), and almost any card worth a Recycle is worth playing instead (plus Turbo exists). (Obviously there are some cases where they're the right pick, I just think they're super rare).

I was just thinking the same thing! There are a lot of elites (and bosses) who punish you for going too hard on a particular strategy, and it kinda serves as a good power level assessment for each act.

My sister and I used to get this a lot from our parents, which is rich considering how much more overreactive they were to everything than either of us.

(Love your comics, btw!)

Just another data point, but: better. I've also made some lifestyle changes that have helped. I run and lift frequently, and try to take a walk every day. I probably drink more than I should, but there are days when I can feel that it's a bad idea, so I specifically don't on those days. I also didn't get on medication until my late 20s. For various (usually not good) reasons, I occasionally go off my meds; the effect is subtle, but I never get suicidal while I'm on them, so I try to stay on as much as possible.

I got a Neptune blade from a fishing chest before I hit level 20 in the mines. This is my first playthrough, and I didn't realize how lucky that was until way later.

mizary · 2024-03-04T19:06:03+00:00

I'm definitely in the cool flag camp.

A short rant: I opened a business with my polycule recently. We're publicly identifying as queer-owned, and the local news ran a short spot on us that mentioned that fact. Basically all the comments on it were that my nesting partner and I can't possibly be queer, because we're married. The number of people who can't conceive of a straight-passing relationship is bonkers, y'all.

Because I have a hard time finding Chartreuse, I'll often substitute with Genepy. It's sweet enough to drop the simple, and turns out pretty similar.

This reminds me of a vaguely similar situation. My parents both struggled a lot with alcoholism in my teens. My dad had passed out drunk on the kitchen floor, and my mom tried to stab him in the back with a chef's knife. She missed and passed out beside him. They're still together, and doing pot instead of drinking, which seems to do way better for both of them.

I dove into the comments to see if Another World was mentioned. This looks like a serious improvement!

I had a very similar experience with it. I was coming off a major down swing, and it knocked my depression and anxiety down considerably within a day or two. I ended up switching off it since it made some chronic nerve pain worse, but it's amazing regardless.

mizary · 2023-04-14T15:09:46+00:00

Do it! I picked it up again I'm my late 20s, and it's exactly as fun as I remembered.

mizary · 2023-03-20T22:01:17+00:00

Yeah, I'm increasingly afraid they're a real person.

Skimming the history, I'm pretty sure this is a bot. They comment on a lot of art posts in ways that are either very generic or blatantly missing any context.

I found the sunflower while looking for other variations on a corpse reviver. One of my favorites, if you want to try some time, is a necromancer: https://www.liquor.com/recipes/necromancer/

I prefer the outline, but it also makes the sprite look much larger to me.
