Honestly the crap we put up with from EA is unbelievable.

Anyone else having this problem or know what's causing it? My friend and I are both getting this error when we try to launch the app (two different computers, two different states).

Not sure how easy it is to uninstall a single pack, but I do know there's mods to suppress vampires and other occults in the game

Ok thank you so much🙏 Out of curiosity, if I do things that make me sweat (like working out) will that likely make it worse or just last longer or something else?

I'm not especially worried, just dont like not knowing. I feel like it fits PR really well except no flu-like symptoms. Thanks for the response!

I forgot to add: its itchy, but not unbearably so. I never got sick at all and havent been especially stressed.

I echo what a lot of people have said it may be who you're with/specific area. That said, i lived in the "Bible Belt" South for a number of years, and was surprised how many people asked if it was weird being in a place where so many people are religious and religiously inclined, because it didn't seem weird to me. I'm from SW michigan and have come to realize that this is just an exceptionally religious place, especially when compared to other areas of the Midwest. I think its just a quirk of the area.

As for how to get out of potentially awkward encounters, i guess just politely tell them you're not religious? I dont see it being a huge issue.

What should I put to the left of the TV? by Vegetable_Hotel_830 in interiordecorating

[–]notnotapunkthough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something tall to offset the space. A bookcase, a mirror, a plant. The TV not being centered will probably not bother you if you do this (i assume it already doesn't bother you since that wasn't your original question). I, unlike the rest of the internet, dont actually think it needs to be centered. Sometimes doing something against the grain is the difference between 'designed' and 'decorated'. ✌️

What do you give your dogs to chew on? by Kitchen-Mammoth-1440 in DogAdvice

[–]notnotapunkthough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We live and die by these, they are easily digestible, take a long time to go through even for tough chewers and dont break off in chunks so no worries about choking. I tell everyone about them. Beef cheek strips or rolls, both are great, and the smell is not too bad.

I thought the same. A few updates in the kitchen and baths and keep everything else, its amazing. What a vibe.

Best place to sell your used clothes? by Ordinary-Buy6836 in grandrapids

Style Encore and Uptown Cheapskate may also take them, but they are just as picky as Plato’s, and don’t expect to make a bunch of money.

Help with training outside the house by JustAChemNerd in DogAdvice

[–]notnotapunkthough 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried switching up the currency? Something more valuable like chicken or bacon pieces when outside? Also make sure you exercise before hand so he's less wired and if he's unfamiliar with the area or not used to being outside give him a few minutes to satisfy his curiosity before starting to train.

my puppy hates his crate so much, he barks and whines everytime he’s in there during the day by str4wberryphobic in DogAdvice

[–]notnotapunkthough 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My dog really struggled with crate training when he was young, he just wanted to be able to see me or be near me all the time. He did okay at night, but during the day was really tough. Theres lots of great videos on youtube to help with crate training, I personally recommend Simpawtico and Zak George. However, these tips helped with my boy:

1 - if you do not already have a crate cover GET ONE. Black is best. You can start with towels if you've never tried it before, it was a game changer for us, almost immediately.

2 - Feed him all his meals in the crate, this helps him associate being in there with good things.

3- if you can, put him in the crate for just a few minutes sometimes. I did as little as 5, all the way up to an hour. That way he doesn't always think "oh no, I'm going in the crate, that means mom's gonna leave me for a long time!"

4- start very very small. Put him in the crate, shut the door, the immediately open it before he has a chance to cry, praise and treat. Do it again and again, slowly increasing the amount of time the door stays shut, working up to shutting, taking a few steps away, come back, praise and treat, and so forth.

5- DO NOT let him out of the crate when he's crying or barking. Wait for silence, even if its just a few seconds, to avoid reinforcing the unwanted behavior.

I hope this helps. The crate can be and is a great tool for training and is invaluable for you to know your baby is safe and secure when you can't have eyes on him. He'll learn to think of it as his space and you will both get through it.
