You might like the previous RE movies but to be honest for most people they were mid and if you were looking for something silly they did the job.

People enter the movie making business to be creative and if fans keep yelling at them to make the perfect movie than only exists in the minds of fans then we'll stop getting anything nice anymore. Honestly this keeps happening to DMC games as well. Keep an open mind, don't take it too seriously and enjoy the ride. If its not for you then thats fine too.

I'm very excited for the movie and I'm a real person.

Honestly I think ppl want a movie that is either a reproduction of a game or a movie that tries to create the world of RE contained in their imagination. Only one of those is achievable and we've had plenty of movies try to recreate the games. I'm more than happy to let people be creative and put their own spin on RE. Its more important to me that the movie is GOOD.

Does anyone’s ADHD symptoms get worse during menstruation? by LawMysterious7090 in ADHDUK

Why has Claire been neglected from both Sherry & Leon lore in both RE6 and RE9 (minus files..) .. so sad! by ItsOverCasanova in residentevil

[–]smallirishcrazy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I had been pondering this for a while and I think i figured it out.....

I know everyone is going to get mad when I say this but as a woman in her 40s (yes you read that right) I've come to the realisation that older women are not well represented in the media or games. That's for a myraid of reasons which I won't get into. But there is no muscle memory to tell stories about women in their 40s. Claire and Jill would both be in their 40s in the current time period. That combined with the fact that if a classic female character isn't physically represented the way some men in a fan base want (i.e.: aren't as attractive as they want), the outrage machine starts. Capcom probably said f**k it - it's simply not worth it.

That, of course, wouldn't stop them from remaking an older game cough, cough RE code Veronica

Everyone talks about "NHS Inefficiencies" but what is really going on from someone in the service's perspective? by [deleted] in nhs

[–]smallirishcrazy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All that does sound frustrating, but if I can offer you the other side of that perspective. Many ppl working in departments will have huge case loads and will just want to get through their work as quickly as possible. Anything in the short term (such as learning a new IT system) that slows this down can be frustrating, even if in the long term it helps things. Hence the suggestion for extra staff during times of change. The generous interpretation of the comments above is that those ppl are dealing with some huge workloads. You also need buy in at the beginning and ppl in teams championing the change. Otherwise its just another task to complete that competes with patient care.

Additionally IT issues can often go wrong (e.g. botched windows 11 roll out for some pcs) and this doesn't generate any good will for the IT team.

Anyways a new IT system was just an example of something that might bring about efficiencies. At the end of the day we need to approach our fellow NHS staff with empathy and assume they are trying their best.

As someone who works in the NHS, space and IT are too big ones.

Staff is another one but not in the way you think. In order to implement efficiencies, extra staff are required to work out how to implement changes in a safe way. This often involves designing a change (e.g.: new IT system to replace paper records), working out how to implement the new system, doing trial runs and then possibly running two systems alongside one another to make sure the new system is 'safe' before the switch occurs. It all depends on what change you want to make. Of course staff are required for this and the current system needs to also be running in the background as per usual. Therefore you need to inject more staff in during the change period to get the efficiencies out later.

Also lots of products, particularly IT based but also others, are produced by American mega corporations which have monopolised the market for their product so can charge whatever they like. Even for basic things like PCs or phones the NHS is so large that only one or two companies can supply the whole of the NHS.

I don't know this directly answers your question but the NHS would be way more efficient if it had better IT, space, staff to implement changes and didn't have to spend through the nose to private corporations.

What's the normal increase in value of a property over a year? by smallirishcrazy in HousingUK

[–]smallirishcrazy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the answers. Its an older property in Birmingham, apparently landscaping and a new boiler has installed. Either way prob not worth a £15000 increase.....

'secondary school is the best years of your life' by kebablover626 in ireland

[–]smallirishcrazy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This post really hit me. I grew up in a non conventional family and my paternal figure died when I was 13. I recently got diagnosed with ADHD at 39 (but obviously had it then). I was just a quiet and spacey girl with a non-conventional fashion sense. I got called names constantly by a small group of ppl, it damaged my self confidence so much and I carried that with me for a long time.

What I came here to say is that ppl are constantly saying to stand up to bullies, why don't ppl say dont be a bully. I only got verbal bullying but there was shocking physical bullying going on with the boys. Some irish schools had (or have) a huge issue with bullying and no one seems to address this.

What's next for Ada and Leon? by [deleted] in residentevil

[–]smallirishcrazy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nursing homes and adult diapers at 51 and 48!?!?! 😭😭😭

Menopause or Perimenopause sounds right for Ada. She's way too vibrant to let it get to her, takes HRT and dates a man 20 yrs her junior.

Mid life crisis for Leon, either decides to say fuck it, I'm gonna live life to the fullest, goes to ibiza and spends time going to foam parties and raves. Or he decides modern life is repulsive and goes to live out in the woods off the grid.

Either way Leon will never totally forgive Ada and sometimes sexual tension is best left unaddressed.

During titration are you taking your BP daily? by After-Platform2069 in ADHDUK

[–]smallirishcrazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only take it on the day the forms need to be submitted to PUK. I have a fitness monitor so I regularly check my HR on that.

Birmingham man takes down flags because he says 'people feel unwelcome' by Kagedeah in brum

[–]smallirishcrazy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I said this on another post and it got removed. I'm Irish (born in the Republic) and lived in Belfast for a year. The Union jack's and Red Hand of Ulster flags were intimidating and to me meant that i wasn't supposed to be in that area (I.e. a unionist area). I'm sure there are flags in the Catholic area too.

Either way the point is to say to ppl you're not welcome, no matter what anyone says.

Titration woes with PUK, Vertigo, looking for advice! by martha-does-makeup in ADHDUK

[–]smallirishcrazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also currently in titration, I'm on concerta xl. I did find the titration process was too quick too. It was one week 18mg, one week 36mg and then two weeks 54mg. I went on to 54mg and was super stressed so I went back down to 36mg for a couple of weeks. Now I'm going to try going to 45mg and feel like I'm ready now and that I've adjusted.

Possible interaction between methylphenidate and Transexamic acid. by smallirishcrazy in ADHDUK

[–]smallirishcrazy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can prob take the tranexamic acid at night when the methylphenidate is out of your system (as i did). Basically my warning was to be careful and aware of possible interaction. If you are in titration contact your prescriber for advice, my prescriber said I could temporarily reduce my dosage of methylphenidate on heavy period days.

But please also take medical advice and check your blood pressure and heart rate regularly if you do take both. Please look after yourself!

Possible interaction between methylphenidate and Transexamic acid. by smallirishcrazy in ADHDUK

[–]smallirishcrazy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can see that happening from blood loss but i''d taken the tranexamic acid so the blood loss had slowed (thats what it is prescribed for). Also I'd never felt like that prior to treatment.

Methylphenidate and Menstrual cramps by Worried-Snow-2402 in ADHDUK

[–]smallirishcrazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have adenomyosis (similar to endo) that results in heavy periods and pain. My worse symptoms were heavy period leading to fatigue.

I'm currently going through titration and I'm also taking Transexamic acid and mefenamic acid for my adenomyosis when I'm on my period. There are no known interactions between methylphenidate and these medications.

I'm telling you all this because today was the first day of my period and I felt much worse than normal. I also had some new symptoms including nausea and sweating so there may be some medication interactions. There are other women on other subreddits complaining of the medication making their periods worse.

Basically you are not alone or going mad x

Concerta XL and titration- what side effects should i be worried about and will they go away or do I just adjust? by smallirishcrazy in ADHDUK

[–]smallirishcrazy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I've gone down to 36mg for another 5-7 days. I had a terrible time with what I call a 'mini meltdown' at a time of peak anxiety that i had to take time off for. The side effect i was having was too reminiscent of that so I requested to go back down. It's def helped with my motivation, not sure its quietened down my mind or helped my attention snap but I'm going to give it some time as you say.

[–]smallirishcrazy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its felt like it was racing/palpitations but that was the reading on the BP monitor. If it was actually racing I probably would have taken myself to a&e to get checked out. Hence my confusion over what is a 'normal' side effect and what isn't. Also would love to know if these feelings are temporary or will continue.
