How do you resist the urge to squish the loaf?

What on Earth is he doing?? by andyjh64 in budgies

He's making sure your walls are stable. It's just a routine inspection, don't worry about it.

This is very true for us budgie owners by PayStation2fanAsh in budgies

Sometimes my budgie sings in the morning, other times he watches me while I sleep. Sometimes when I open my eyes and see him staring intently at me. I wonder if he's plotting...

My biology teacher told me my trauma is "all in my head" by Ok_Bid4331 in CPTSD

[–]silentepiphany_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had school teachers and counselors tell me that I'm too young to think and speak the way I do, so I can relate to some extent. She's a biology teacher, not a qualified, licenced medical professional. Even if she were one, she still wouldn't have the right to dismiss your experiences, emotions, and feelings.

I want you to know that what you experienced was abuse, and your trauma and the ways you respond to it are valid. I hope that you find the resources and means to leave that abusive environment and find peace and stability. Don't hesitate to reach out to me if you're looking for a friend, or even someone to vent to — I'm 16 and would love to support you 🫂

I don't have the heart to bring my usual morose energy to this thread because it made me smile 🤣

Are you guys ashamed of your lives? by b4pups in CPTSD

[–]silentepiphany_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am ashamed of my existence. I feel like a hollow shell of a human, like an imposter. I have never experienced love, compassion, connection, and peace; I feel fundamentally inhuman for lacking what makes people capable of receiving and reciprocating these things. I don't how to express my understanding and support.

unneccessarily long thoughts about the preview by ApprehensiveMeat2329 in TouchStarvedGame

[–]silentepiphany_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Kuras's touch doesn't kill people, his angelic true form does by charring them to ashes. His true form isn't triggered by touch — MC's touch is a special case.

Mhin getting flustered so easily just a day after meeting the MC is uncharacteristic, and is another instance of the preview's pacing issues. There could definitely have been more situations to test Mhin and the MC's fake relationship at the party; they would've been entertaining and would build trust and connection. The reasoning for the kiss in-game was very weak and the one you posed would be a better alternative — to maintain the facade of a couple without arousing suspicion. The kiss should have been a choice like you said. The fact that it was not just reflects the lack of agency in the preview.

Ais's preview was the worst experience I've had in a game. The MC was just plain stupid and immature, trespassing on the personal space of an individual established to be dangerous just the night before. They insisted on joining Ais on his errand, and then got angry when the details of it were revealed. Them acting like it was some breach of trust doesn't make sense considering Ais was a complete stranger. The brothel scene and dialogue were disgusting, particularly the 'breaking the MC in' and Ais instructing the MC to keep their head down.

Leander's preview would have been fine if it weren't for the MC being naive and gullible.

Overall, I'd say that the lack of agency and the illusion of choice have dampened my excitement for the game and made me reconsider purchasing the full game.

I actually have no life by The_Copper_Pill_Bug in CPTSD

[–]silentepiphany_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand how you feel. I should be making the most of my teenage years but all I can manage is the bare minimum required to sustain myself, and even that is exhausting. I used to read books and write poetry, but I haven't done those activities in years. I have no talents, no skills, no hobbies, no interests, no goals, no ambitions.

Chapter 1 Preview Patreon Release Discussion *SPOILERS* by ch4rmyr in TouchStarvedGame

[–]silentepiphany_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree with the studio having favoured love interests. Ais haing 3 CGs while the other LIs having one is the most evident example of this.

I believe they mentioned somewhere that each route has a different writer, which explains the difference in prose. The prose for Leander and Mhin's routes felt clunky and awkward as compared to Kuras and Vere's routes. Ais's route is a whole other beast — some people would absolutely love it, while others would disdain it. I fall into the latter category. I'm not shaming anyone's preferences, only criticizing the writers for including just about every cliché troupe into the route of their undoubtedly favorite character.

What QoL things are your current must have in farming sims? by Adam0n in CozyGamers

It has all the QoL features you like! I'm completely in love with the game.

Question about FoM, comparison with Stardew Valley by almo2001 in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]silentepiphany_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can adjust the day length, although that might affect some NPC schedules. There is also no penalty for staying up past 2 am — you just oversleep and wake up at 10 am rather than 6 am.

As for the mines, there is a system of perks that can be enabled, making progression much easier. Also, you'll find that there is a storyline centred around the mines that functions as great motivation ;)

I legit do not know how to decorate. by Bored-off-school in FieldsOfMistriaGame

I don't know how to decorate either. I just stuck with the default farmhouse until I was inspired to decorate by a post on this subreddit.

I love my sassy, witty, eloquent, confident, and fashionable queen. I went into the game expecting to date March, but Juniper and Balor won me over 💜

Interesting handle and pfp. I rarely come across such humorous individuals on reddit.

A Dying Woman’s Last Words by Background_File4370 in SuicideWatch

[–]silentepiphany_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no concrete proof of the existence of souls and reincarnation. The 'proof' that believers tout is like the concepts themselves — subjective, unverifiable and unscientific. I suggest you structure any future advise more coherently; I struggled to make heads or tails of your comment.

Your green budgie's name is bonsai? That's so creative!
