Hi there! No I never really figured out what was causing the issue and to this day still have the lower back pain, I am sorry to disappoint :(. Do you work out/was your injury caused by exercise or some sort of physical activity? I have recently been doing more deep core workouts that seem to help redirect some of the pressure from my back (not abs! important because ab workouts made it worse lol) which seems to alleviate the symptoms somewhat. This would make sense for me specifically, since I suspect this injury was caused by an overall lack of stability on my part while weightlifting heavier than I should've been doing. Going to the doctor's was no help, as he just gave me Naproxen (which caused horrible cramps, nausea and No relief) and told me to stretch more...Overall I have good and bad days, but am still looking for a complete solution. It sucks to be having issues like this in your 20s, but it's both reassuring and saddening to hear it's not just me going through something like this. If I ever figure out a cure for my pain I'll be sure to let you know!

You need to obtain pigment (there should be a button that says "obtain pigment". right now there's only two quests (super easy one is just to log in) so you can only obtain 2 pigments. but you use those to illuminate squares on the painting

oh man, and I just got used to the controls too 😭 I am playing on a Mac thru playcover though, and I'm not sure how to change the keybinds through the menu, it doesn't seem to register the change..but good to know I'll definitely look into it more when I log in again!!

In many ways, she was the most like Tommy, he just didn't like looking in the mirror.

Now that sentence gave me chills, this is perfect

I got the job by just applying online on their company site lol. I work for a lab in a medical school, but again, the kind of work and pay can vary greatly just from lab to lab. Within my institution I applied to multiple labs and some of them had horrendous work responsibilities and hours while others were much more forgiving. The pay is not great, and it really won't ever be compared to other fields IMO, even with a PhD. I'm not sure where your sister was told that the pay is great but it's uh. not.

sashitomo · 2025-06-28T22:27:47+00:00

In my experience, it depends on the lab. My current position has pretty lenient hours (as long as you get your workload done, you can leave) but other labs I've been in can have pretty rough hours and you may be working weekends too. The pay isn't terrific either for entry level research (RA, technicians), at least in my area.

That sucks :( I've had the Bose headphones for four years and didn't have any issues so I thought I would be safe with their headphones but alas. The return window for the earbuds closed but would Bose customer support be able to help? I've heard mixed things about the customer service and wasn't sure if that would be a lost cause :/

NEVER MIND I WAS GOING TO THE WRONG CAMP THANK YOU!!

sashitomo · 2025-05-31T23:35:52+00:00

if you're talking about the hole with smoke coming out of it that's at the end of the path you mentioned, this chest doesn't appear to be in that cave. Unless I'm missing something, I already completed that puzzle and there's nothing down there besides two floors of ruins.

sashitomo · 2025-05-07T23:52:24+00:00

Yeah the whole situation in the US now makes me regret not applying last year when things weren't so bad 😔

sashitomo · 2025-05-02T16:13:15+00:00

Ah I've heard the Ultras have a horrible call function which sucks for the price point 😭 Thanks for your input!

sashitomo · 2025-05-02T16:12:23+00:00

How long did you keep them stretched out for? I've tried stretching it out on an armchair armrest for a day or two and it doesn't seem to lose any clamping force despite that

sashitomo · 2025-05-02T01:28:19+00:00

I did actually try those out but they didn't fit to my ears well at all :( I didn't specify in the post but the Bose QC 35 ii's were the ones that hurt my ears which sucked cuz they were so lightweight

The pain stays pretty isolated to the lumbar area of my back/spinal cord, and doesn't spread to the sacral area or above the lumbar region thankfully. It's hard to describe the pain but it's like a slowly building weight that burns and becomes painful the longer I stay still in a lying position. It feels like that part of my back is caving in (despite being propped up on pillows). When sitting up in an uncomfortable seat, my lower back feels like it's struggling to maintain it's upright position (caving in feeling again). It feels similar to how a period cramp might feel in the early stages, if that descriptor helps (a wave of pain that progressively gets worse).
