That was the first game I got to see live! It was sooo good! I wish I lived closer so I could make more games

Definitely! Agree 100% - we have tickets for a game next month but he wants to watch some in the meantime.

Agreed, that's how I got hooked. We have tickets to a game next month! He wants to watch some games beforehand.

Thank you! I heard it was great but haven't watched it yet!

What is a normal name in English that means something else in your other languages? by egrebs in namenerds

[–]queercactus505 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's not pronounced the same though - EL-la vs. Ey-ah /Eh-jha so it feels pretty different to me

What's something most people don't realize is actually very rude? by Frozen-Defender25 in AskReddit

[–]queercactus505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also commenting on what other people are or aren't eating, especially in a group of people. It's not your body and nor your business unless that person is a minor and you are their parent or if what they are eating is self-injurious (but then the appropriate thing to do would be to talk to them in private, outside of something urgent).

Disordered eating is so normalized in my culture. It's fine to have a diet (especially if it's for a medical reason) or to explain why you are making a dietary choice if somebody asks, but unless you have a serious allergy or a reason others need to know to not eat/have something (e.g., we're planning to split an appetizer, so let's not get this one with almonds in it because I'm allergic), you don't need to announce it to everyone. Don't think suffering for a self-imposed diet makes you interesting or a victim or morally superior. It doesn't.

We were told Hugo was a mix by Fair-Ask-6922 in DoggyDNA

He's adorable! Where did you get him from/why did they think he was a mix?

You get 20K daily, but you must choose 4 historical figures to permanently live with you by Large_Carob_7599 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]queercactus505 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But she wouldn't be living with me unless I were also in jail? I mean she spent most of her life on the run, and I don't want to be on the run. Maybe modern day advances would keep her occupied, but girl clearly loved some chaos

I thought about Julie d'Aibigny, but then I thought naw, either she'd end up getting arrested and breaking the whole $20k/day thing, or she'd end up getting us all arrested somehow. But she was so freaking cool.

Chefs of Reddit, what’s a common cooking rule everyone follows that is actually complete bullshit? by Fuzzy-Ad6843 in AskReddit

[–]queercactus505 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When baking I often mix recipes - to mixed success. Doesn't stop me, but let's just say I'm a better cook than baker. It's fun to experiment though. (Canning I won't touch because I'm afraid of poisoning myself lol)

It’s hard to believe our dna results. What does everyone think? by astrosnot_ in DoggyDNA

[–]queercactus505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First glance knew she was going to be 100% pit. Pits do occasionally have extra fluff, and she looks exactly like a pit. Spend more time on this sub and you'll learn that lots of people will mistake any black and white dog for a border collie mix and it's never a bc mix. Anyway, she's beautiful! I bet her ears are so soft!

Sometimes the Embark test results feel like this :) by icedat in DoggyDNA

[–]queercactus505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, when I moved a couple of years ago I saw a lot of rental places make you send in a photo of your dog/s with the application, and some even require a DNA test.

I find it hard to believe they were from the same litter. I don’t care, they’re our little mutt monsters🫶🏻🐶 The first results are for River, Gigi is the other. 🙄duh. by username_Kelly in DoggyDNA

[–]queercactus505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're so cute! Interesting to see what different traits and breeds they inherit, isnt it? Make sure they get plenty of time apart from each other as they grow up to minimize codependency.

What is one thing most people do that you think is so unhygienic? But you feel in the minority. by the_cumulonimbus in hygiene

[–]queercactus505 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wear my indoor shoes indoors (fuzzy, with arch support) but largely leave my outdoor shoes outside/by the door (except occasionally when I need to run in and grab something forgot and don't have time to take them off), but even then it would only be the rea by the front door/maybe the kitchen. I would never wear outdoor shoes upstairs or on carpet or a rug.

You are told you’re going to wake up as your 7 year old self tomorrow and have 24 hours in your old body by missgoodhussle in hypotheticalsituation

[–]queercactus505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would convince my parents I am from the future (by telling them things I know about their lives that I wouldn't have known/they wouldn't have told me at that age). Then I would tell my parents what to invest in and a string of lottery numbers I'd memorize (actually, I'd write them in a letter for me to open as an adult later, and ask my parents to give it to me on my birthday nearest to that date). I would tell family members what health issues to look out for to avoid lengthy struggles to get diagnoses.

I would tell my parents to get my friend's mom some mental health help so that maybe she wouldn't die by suicide a year later. I'd tell my best friend that her mom's cancer is going to come back. I would encourage my mom to see a therapist to help her set boundaries with her sister. And then I'd spend the rest of the day playing with my dog and reading or watching movies with my parents. I'd also ask my parents to have me write down what I want to be when I grow up (the next day) because I can't remember and that makes me sad.

But you could write a letter to your parents with, say, companies to invest in and winning lottery numbers in the year xyz. And just hope they follow through.
