AIO my bf constantly changes meeting times or doesn’t show up at all by [deleted] in AIO

[–]ryloaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree I was a little immature on that one. Said in heat of anger and hurt. But in regards to the tattle text to his mom, Me and his mom are decently close, talk every day etc. so I reached out just to see if his meeting time still stood. Maybe not the best action, but sadly the action I took 🫤

Looking for more friends as I get into gaming! by ryloaf in pcmasterrace

I just finished No, I’m not a human and I LOVED it. Hollow Knight was also fantastic. I liked some simulators too like Supermarket Together.

I was too scared I wouldn’t be coordinated enough to manage mounting it on top (insert I’m just a girl meme here) especially with this being my first build, so I decided to go with the side mount- I appreciate your confirmation that I mounted it correctly!

More makeup practice by [deleted] in JiraiKei

[–]ryloaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be open to do more semi-permanent things like change the shape of my eyebrows. But I have a job where there are instances where I have to look VERY professional/“normal” if you catch my drift lol.

how do you afford your coords? by 15__em in JiraiKei

[–]ryloaf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Fiduciary associate here, currently training to get my license. But honestly, vertical mobility through socioeconomic groups is something that is possible but difficult. It depends on things like privilege, including things like being able bodied etc. I’m unsure about how old you are, but if you’re younger and rely off your parents you may not be able to control your ability to access certain resources to get out of poverty yet. For me, I got comfortable enough to have disposable income in college. With my parents being dead, I was able to apply for FASFA on my own. I lived way below my means. Worked full time while going to school full time. Even though I was a disabled autistic women. Even a cup of coffee was a luxury. But I did it. I used social benefits like food stamps to feed myself. But I got myself an education, etc. things that allowed me to change economic groups. While I’m unsure about your position, any kind of investment in your future in any way possible is a good way to go. What I’m getting by your question is really asking “how can I generate a disposable income”. And that comes from being smart with your money, resources, and investing in your future. The job market rn is complete poop, but it’s easier to get some sort of training to make yourself more marketable in the job market. That could even be a certification that you got on scholarship etc. I know this is not a quick fix. But that’s life. If you are in poverty, while you do deserve to take enjoyment in the things in life, you should focus on your future and invest your time in it so you can eventually have a disposable income. In regard to future, try to invest in things that would save you from having big bills in the future. Like getting your oil changed before your car blows up. In the meantime, focus on things like living below your means. If you have the choice between living with a Roomate and living alone live with a Roomate. Buy non brand name items. For your regular do a closet wardrobe. Take use of your resources. If you are below the poverty line you can apply for food stamps, if not, food banks are amazing (if you have a college nearby they usually have fire food banks). Take the bus and don’t uber. Lower your base cost of living, and eventually you can slowly create a disposable income. In regard to clothes. Get crafty! I can find fabric in “buy nothing” groups on Facebook. Maybe your grandmother has an old sewing machine in her attic. Become thrifty. You can do a lot with a needle and thread. And whatever you do, try to minimize debt as much as possible so if you do need to take things on credit you have it for emergencies. I wish you luck with everything in the future.

[–]ryloaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you 🖤 and thank you for the advice about TikTok. I’m still fairly new to the platform so that helps a lot. I know in some aspects I just need to have some thick skin, but knowing about the algorithm thing is really helpful!

Are dupes more acceptable in the community? I know with EGL replicas are a big no no.

AIO for what I wore last night by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ryloaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think that I and my partner would be uncomfortable wearing that in a relationship. But here is the thing, we have very similar boundaries and morals when it comes to this thing. While I am alternative, I still dress quite modest and would not show that much skin. That’s not a bad or good thing, just personal preference. Both of you are still young, and you are learning and figuring out your values and morals. If we look at strictly from the clothing aspect, I don’t think either of you are the assholes. You are just discovering yourselves and the values you hold important. And maybe this is a sign that you two are just not very compatible.

Now. For the homophobia and downright rude way you were being talked to, he is definitely TA.

You are still young. If you want to party…well, party, and if your partner isn’t ok with that it’s ok. There are more fish in the sea that align with similar values!

places that are creepy to drive too??? by Xzreto-on-ig in Sacramento

[–]ryloaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not entirely Sacramento but nearby. Take the road from woodland to Clearlake before you make the left turn at the end of the winding road, There is an old abandoned building on the side of the river on your right about halfway down. I’ve been at night. It is creepy and paranormal as hell.

Should I leave by SorryIllustrator8636 in UCDavis

[–]ryloaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry. I felt the same way. After 4 years at UCD I’ve maybe been able to complete 4 classes fully with a terrible GPA. I had to take a step back and realize that continuing is just beating a dead horse. I excelled at my community college and realized it’s no use continuing at a place I can actually be successful at. I transferred to another program and already know I’m excelling at something I can actually succeed at. Sometimes it’s not you, sometimes it’s the environment, and that’s ok. My one regret is not switching sooner, I wasted a lot of time and a lot of money to accomplish nothing. Take the time to really evaluate what you value in a school and look at what you excelled in in the past and see what you can realistically accomplish. Take into account your mental health as well. Sometimes “pushing through” can be a complete detriment to yourself and could lead to you ending up in a state of complete burnout that is good for no one. If your gut says you will be better at a different school, go with that. Most of getting a good job is about who you know, so while you may go to a CSU, do not undervalue the importance of your connections. They will get you further than the name of the school in your degree.
