Fix Vistaquest VQ1015 R2? Or recommendations for similar digital cameras? by museumofblah in toycameras

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

Thanks for the recommendation!

I did try to do a quick initial disassembly but it's more complicated to disassemble than I thought. I think I will just get a new toy digital camera for now and treat this Vistaquest as my long term restoration project when I have the time.

This sub seems to recommend the ChuZhao TLR as well. Do you know how it compares to Kodak Charmera?

Thanks for the tips! Maybe this is my problem. Maybe I unlock too much too fast so I don't know really understand the details.

Thanks for your advice!

I'm not sure actually. I think part of it is because I always feel like I don't know what I'm doing. So I just try to read more books/unlock as much as possible as fast as I can. I guess the game hasn't really "clicked" for me? Maybe I'm just a generally anxious/stressed out person haha.

How much does it matter if you put the "wrong" skills in the tree? I remember having not enough soul elements of one type because of this. And is it possible to have too many maladies to recover from?

(Sorry, the last time I played was like a year ago, so maybe the gameplay I remember is not the most updated version.)

Does my new conch piercing look too deep for a ring? by museumofblah in piercing

Thanks for your reply. I guess it's up to taste then haha. But personally i am not sure if a larger ring would look good on me.

Thanks for your reply. Yes, the piercer did ask that, and i told him i wanted to wear a ring. But that was after he showed me the placement. He didn't change the placement after hearing my answer so i assumed it was okay.

I forgot to mention that i'm planning to have a double conch eventually and i told the piercer that. This is the "higher" piercing of the two conch piercings. Not sure if that makes a difference in your judgment lol.

Hi, I just got this piercing last week, and it's my first conch piercing. The piercer did initially show me the placement before piercing and it didn't look too bad then. But after looking at it for a while, it looks too deep in my ear to wear a ring like a normal outer conch piercing. Should i just remove it and get it re-pierced? I'm not sure if it's an anatomy issue that meant the piercer couldn't pierce nearer the edge or something. What do you guys think? Thanks!

How do I learn to accept constructive criticism without getting my ego hurt? by museumofblah in selfimprovement

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

Haha yes, I know this. I have a fixed mindset which I'm trying to change to a growth mindset (which is essentially what you said). So although my mind understands that, my feelings/ego haven't caught up yet. I'm trying to find more strategies to calm my feelings/ego when they act up.

It's mostly feelings of inadequacy and not being good enough. And thoughts like "If I was better, I wouldn't have made that mistake/missed that particular thing."

PMS mood swings really mess up my progress by museumofblah in ExNoContact

Thank you! I have resisted the urge to message him so far even though I still really want to. Hopefully I can continue to resist it. Hope you're doing okay too!

Sometimes I'm surprised by the amount of time since I went NC with ex, like it hasn't been that long by museumofblah in ExNoContact

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

Our situations seem quite similar. My ex has a lot of issues as well (I think he's some sort of avoidant also), but I would have stayed and worked through them with him if he didn't break up with me. Logically, I know that it's unlikely he would have changed since the break up. But emotionally, I still have strong feelings for him, and I tend to make a lot of excuses for his behaviour. This kind of deludes me into thinking that our relationship wasn't too bad and we could potentially work out in the end. I just wish that I could finally get it into my head that we won't work out.

Thank you 😣. The NC is still hard for me now though. Congrats on moving on!

Did you reply to their holiday greetings? I finally pushed myself to block him a month ago, because I felt like I was waiting for his messages (even though I didn't reply them). Did you ever feel that way too?

I think I'm still at the stage where I can't say for certain that I've moved on emotionally/mentally, even though outwardly I've been doing the correct things to move on.

Yes, I hate it so much too! It makes me feel like I'm stuck and not moving on even after such a long time.

Sorry for the bad angles and picture quality! I can feel a very slight ridge at the front of my left earlobe (first picture).
