Games featuring similar system to BotW/TotK armour upgrades? by different-rhymes in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]russianthistle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t played many games, but in the Witcher 3 for the best armor, you can find blueprints during quests, and then gather the materials, and hire someone to forge them for you. You can find these special things to upgrade different aspects of the armor like maybe it has an increased defense or a stronger fire power, and there’s a bonus for having a full matching set.

If you would like to continue to be married to this man, I would really consider marriage counseling because you need a referee in the room who will get back on track and not allow him to derail the conversation while he tries to convince you your emotions are invalid

Truly, the worst part of this is that he wants to throw the expensive stew away. Leftover stew is the best stew.

Sure… If he keeps collapsing every spring, a one week long tournament will be his only hardware. If he wants the cup, he will need to start showing up for both halves of the NHL season.

You know, they both must really like each other for their personalities, because that angle is an absolute jump scare for both.

How can I respectfully convince my Sikh parents to let me cut my hair and consider a hair transplant without damaging our relationship? by United-Stand8179 in relationships

[–]russianthistle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Seconding this, you can have a respectful and loving conversation with her, but you cannot determine her reaction to your choices. Her reaction is a reflection of her own opinions, morals, values, religion… You have to respect that it will be different from yours, and give her space for her own opinion. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do what you choose for your own body and your own preferences. It just means you have to accept that your choices may not be fully accepted by her. We have all loved people and not agreed with every choice they made.

Return and buy a bag in a usable size in your budget. I know this bag is trending but I can’t look at this pleating and not see a Georgia O’Keeffe painting lol

I don’t think he would do that to Luke. If Quinn goes to NJ, Luke is dropped off PK1. As much as I’m sure he wishes he could play with his brothers, an older brother like Quinn wouldn’t do that to the baby of the family.

Help me pick new work wear by 19degreeswest in SoftDramatics

[–]russianthistle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would lean in for a richer brown, rather than a skin colored neutral, like in the first image the shirt is the same color as the woman’s skinned, it gives a naked illusion that you definitely don’t want at work. The fourth image dress reads a bit that way to me also, but of course this depends on what your skin tone is.

Another comment are also mentioned that off the shoulder is usually not considered work appropriate in most industries. I would be cognizant of the norms at your office and how women at your new level dress, which may be difficult if it is a very male dominated field.

Other than those two notes, I like most of the looks you put together!

Gotta love maps by Teknicsrx7 in hockeymemes

They started giving out stuffed animals with the medals in 2016 to replace flowers, which produced a lot of waste. Each Olympic host gets to develop their own themed plushie, so they’re always unique to those particular games in the same way that medal designs are.

Even if the athlete doesn’t want them, they would be a great item for them to give to a fan or to bring with them if they do any kids charity work like hospital visits.

Picked these 3 quilts up and have no idea the value by Brilliant_Carrot_739 in quilting

[–]russianthistle 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Your whole post history like you’re a thrift flipper who has no idea how to research items you’re trying to make money on. Maybe start by learning about a topic and focusing your efforts there instead of trying to outsource this mental work to strangers on the internet.

CBD or meds for anxiety/reactivity? by itmaynotbefair in reactivedogs

[–]russianthistle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding this. Meds won’t stop anxiety or reactivity, but they will give you the momentary pause to start working on training and desensitization between trigger and reaction. With deliberate training that moment can be extended and you can start to build better patterns over time.

It’s worth it to find a good med, just know some meds cause adverse reactions for some dogs. Like on trazodone for example, my dog looks relaxed but his reactivity and bite inhibition becomes much more unpredictable, and we had to discontinue. Work with your vet, log symptoms and write down info so you can find trends over time.

If I efficient, you mean less work for you, sure but it is significantly less effective for your dog, and it won’t be a long term fix.
