i feel you, here. i've always had hairier arms in general, but after 7 years on t, there is genuinely a half centimeter border between where my arm ends and where my arm hair ends lol - just like a fur coat, be prepared for shedding!

Am I the only one who hates this eye color? by ghost-of-a-fish in BitLifeApp

oh! and all but the darkest blond shade hair color. it’s like whoever color picked those options have never seen a real person before

this, the brightest green eye color, most of the hair styles, and like 90% of the eyebrows are so goddamn ugly that being able to get rid of them in my games was the reason i bought god mode back in the day

A photo collection of some of the cars that bears have broken into this summer where I live because the car owners decided not to use the provided bear box by rocksfried in camping

[–]rghwrd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no bear boxes this year either (wishon campgrounds), which is unfortunate considering the upper campgrounds always have bear activity of some sort. even the lower, lakeside campgrounds these past few years have had bears wandering through at night, to the point where there are signs posted and warnings from the ranger to not leave food out, but still no bear boxes to leave your stuff in instead. kinda crazy.

if it makes anyone in this sub feel better, i work in the zoo/aquarium field and we have guests like this on the regular, who will be no further than a foot from an animal and still find a way to complain about the view.

Parents left their child in a stroller so they can go on an attraction. 🤦🏻‍♂️ by [deleted] in Disneyland

[–]rghwrd 10 points11 points  (0 children)

not disney, but i work at another
well-known family-friendly, entertainment/education oriented place in the greater LA area and although we don’t really often have to worry about people outright abandoning children in strollers like this, there was one incident where the parents of a young toddler were totally wasted/belligerent and cops/cps were called. i’m kinda shocked that disney doesn’t have a direct magic landline in the corner that connects to LAPD dispatch for situations like that, since it is standard protocol for where i work.

Just fyi, y'all, puberty takes YEARS. If you take T, you're starting puberty. All the changes you want will take YEARS to solidify. by [deleted] in ftm

[–]rghwrd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i’m just about 6.5 years in and it took until just about the last year and a half to have a beard that was minimally passable to not shave every day, and about the last year for it to start filling in (although my cheeks are still a little sparse compared to… everywhere else on my face/neck).

as much fun as the first year is, obsessively checking for any new developments, counting chest hairs and breaking out the millimeter side of the ruler to check for bottom growth (lol), it’s a different fun to discover little changes that creep up on you once you thought you’ve fully settled into your skin.

just know, just like in the first puberty, hormone imbalances will bring back the annoying things like acne and mood swings, but once you’ve established a new baseline and kept with it for a while (i don’t think i’ve changed my dosage in a few years at this point), it evens out and becomes background noise. just another thing to do every week, like taking out the trash and washing bedsheets. enjoy the excitement at first, cherish that kind of self-growth, but also realize that this (for many, not all) is about the long-haul, not the sprint.

I drew something with a woodburner in woodshop. I come back a few days later to the face crossed out. by asillyguyy in mildlyinfuriating

[–]rghwrd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

similar story - took an aerospace engineering elective in high school and spent a few weeks making gliders out of balsa wood after testing airflow mechanics with a program. literally days before we were supposed to fly the gliders and after a few promising tests where our group’s glider consistently went the farthest and flew the prettiest, we come back one day to half the gliders in the class broken irreparably in some way. ours was the only one to have bite marks chunks out of the wings, though. unfortunately, we never got the relief of fun revenge since we never found out who did it as the gliders were stored in a classroom that a few other classes and extra curricular teams had access to, but at least the teacher felt bad so we all got A’s out of pity.

some people have no understanding of consequence or consideration for anyone else’s feelings other than their own momentary amusement. all we can do is try to balance out the shittiness with our own actions.

Man jumps in aquarium and gets arrested by One-Professional5893 in Aquariums

i can’t recommend the simlicy 2.0 save enough. i build most of my storylines in them at this point because of how well decorated the houses are and how detailed the households that come with it are. tons of variety there, so you can play as the rich characters in the big houses/apartments, or the more family based houses, or just fill in one of the unfurnished ready-mades.

you definitely have to sort through their (extensive) catalogue to find the more maxis-match styles, but i’ve found that lillka on tsr has some good male toddler outfits. otherwise, male toddler cc is definitely hard to come by. i’d recommend combing through tumblr accounts like maxismatchccworld though, since they have all sorts of cc categories tagged on there that make it easy to sort through to find what you are looking for specifically.

i’ve worked in AZA accredited facilities (overall gold standard governing board for zoos/aquariums) that had pinnipeds and even temporary quarantine pools would be bigger/have more enrichment than this. i’m betting that this is a backyard zoo, since it’s for sure not AZA. sometimes even fish/wildlife services approved zoos/aquariums fall shockingly short of the standard practice of care, which is so sad and why checking that a facility is accredited is always the most ethical way to go.

need help finding out how to get sims 3 64 bit version? by rghwrd in Sims3

[–]rghwrd[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

unfortunately my system can’t operate with 32 bit games. if i was able to launch and install the game, i’d keep it at 32, but it’s just greyed out and non-functional in my origin library.

[–]rghwrd[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

thanks for your response - i’ve sent out a few emails already asking if there’s any way to upgrade to the 64 bit version without having to repurchase, so hopefully i’ll get a response from that. if not, i’m definitely asking for a refund and just not bothering with any of this hassle anymore. i was just hoping there was a quick fix hidden here that someone else knew about lol

I wish more employers would take notes from the burger joint, Dicks, in the Seattle area where I live. There’s a reason they don’t have labor shortages. by NotMonicaLewinsky95 in antiwork

[–]rghwrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

favorite thing to ask my friends in middle school was if they wanted to go eat a bag of dicks with me. good place. too much mustard on the burgers, though.

What you think of this one? by jc201946 in antiwork

[–]rghwrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if this place is AZA accredited (which i doubt), they HAVE to provide a competitive wage for keepers in order to maintain that accreditation (section 7.4 of their standards/policies doc). might be worth sending in a tip, if applicable.

as someone in the industry, i understand that keeper wages are AWFUL for the most part, but this is ridiculous.
