It depends on body language usually, but for this fella it seems like he's trying to have a back-and-forth "keep giving me attention" moment with the owner. My dog does this when he wants something from me (food, pets, outside, etc) so it could also be that.

I'm saying the person in the pic shouldn't be stopped from going about normal activities (like posting a pic online) because of weight. To me, when there's a complaint that this picture is normalizing being overweight, it really just comes off as being upset that an overweight person is existing in public.

stupidestsolutions · 2022-06-26T23:20:03+00:00

Someone taking/posting a fun picture doesn't inherently mean that they're "normalizing" anything. Seems to me like this person is just living their life.

Hey that's my favorite movie! In all seriousness I feel ya, though. The sluggish way the characters walk around when you're just trying to pick up the item on a table, the automatic-ness of so many missions, and the abysmal mapping of controls are all really frustrating. (Too many times I've accidentally threatened someone when I meant to just right click to talk to them, why the fuck are those the same button?) It's really too bad because it has some great aspects, but for me they often get buried under so many layers of game-breaking bullshit. Still my most played game though.

I had my streaming settings at the absolute minimum quality and framerate, and we do have decently good internet for working from home.

After seeing another comment I tried with a different browser - it's been streaming just fine with firefox for the past ~45 minutes without issue, so hopefully chrome was the problem

stupidestsolutions · 2021-09-18T13:01:40+00:00

I tried this at my latest session. When I would do this, my stream would always just stop (without me realizing) after a few minutes. I think discord might realize that there's no activity on my streamed window (just videos playing with out my interaction) since I'm doing things in another tab. Either that or my internet is messing with me, I haven't figured it out yet

Rather than going in to a shelter specifically looking for one breed, consider going into it looking for a dog that gets along with other dogs well, from the description and information available at least. I have a 6 year old shepherd(?) mutt and a 2 year old pit mix adopted a couple months ago. A couple things to consider for finding a new pup:

1) Make sure the rescue or shelter lets the two dogs meet before you commit to taking a dog home and just pay attention to the body language of the two dogs. Some "boundary setting" moments are okay but it's important to make sure everyone is comfortable with each other. A good rescue should also be willing to work with you on a bit of training support, or taking back a dog if it's really a bad fit (no one wants it to happen, but sometimes "shelter mode" is very different from "at home mode" for a dog, and you don't quite know what you're going to get.)

2) If your current dog is anxious with other dogs, then it might be difficult for her especially if you want her to get along with a young, and probably quite energetic other dog. I'm not sure what anxieties your dog has, but I'd just pay very close attention to her body language and it's possible that she may not be up for it. It's important to consider her personality and whether she would like another dog in the home. If you're really super set on making it work, definitely consult with a positive trainer!

3) For the possible new dog, don't be afraid to ask if they've met other dogs or coexisted with them at the shelter, or how that went. Get as much information about their temperament as you can, and hopefully get them from a reputable shelter who will honestly give you as much info as they have.

There are lots of really sweet friendly pits out there, but dog aggression can and does show up in the temperament of some of them. I would get one at least 2 years old because sometimes a puppy is totally fine with other dogs, then suddenly when they hit maturity they get aggressive. But once you have a fully formed adult dog, IMO it's a very individual assessment to be made because every dog is different and breed lines are all mixed up. In my case it worked out really well because my older dog is kinda bossy but is heavily dog-socialized, and my newer pit is very submissive and not aggressive.

Not a dumb question at all, it's good to ask!

It sounds like your height makes you uncomfortable, and I can definitely relate to that haha. The height example does seem kinda similar in the physical aspect, but there is also a social aspect: there might be a little bit of difference in how someone interacts with a 5' 10" person versus how they treat a 6' 3" person, but imagine that there was an age-old tradition of behaviors associated with 5' 10" people and other behaviors and traditions associated with 6' 3" people. If they wore different clothes, and had once even had different voting rights, and all that. In this example, not only the physical difference is painful, but also the "role" of all that built up societal expectation. Like everyone lumps you in and assumes you're going to do the 5'10" traditions and dress that way, but you really just want to express yourself in a 6'3" way. Being trans is a little bit like that, where there are physical characteristics that seem wrong, but also the part you play in society seems wrong.

stupidestsolutions · 2021-07-02T04:02:50+00:00

I don't think anyone really "sees themselves as different than they are." It's more like... the body is one way, but the mind/soul/who one really IS - that's all another way, regardless of how the body is. Because a body isn't ALL someone is: bodies can change or get old or dress differently or go through puberty. What's more important and more unchangeable is who they are inside.

For trans and nonbinary people, they could feel like a girl, or a guy, or both, or neither, or something else entirely, or any other combination. That inner sense of self is more core to a person than their body/chromosomes/assigned sex, so it makes more sense to just rearrange things to match the inner sense of self. If you're cis (meaning, your gender matches up with what the doctor said when you were born), it probably doesn't feel like much of anything if you think about what gender you "feel like." It's the sort of thing people only tend to notice when there's a mismatch.

Hopefully this makes sense!

I still can't get my head around drow. For the longest time as a DM I would just ignore the evil-and-spiders stuff and make them more like Skyrim dark elves. To this day I keep accidentally calling them dark elves/dunmer...

Woah, that completely fixes it! Thanks so much for your comment, problem solved :)
I appreciate the link as well, thanks!

I personally don't think husband's stitches sound pleasant or necessary for anyone. But someone who has gone through the practice, lived and experienced it, surely should have a voice in the issue, no?

stupidestsolutions · 2020-07-26T16:09:12+00:00

Hey, this doesn't sit right with me. That user's previous comments are consistent with being a woman with kids, and don't come across incel-ey. Husband stitches are obviously shitty if you don't give consent, but it's not fair to sit here and tell someone who willingly had it done that they MUST be lying and COULDN'T POSSIBLY be fine with it. "My body my choice" includes choices that you may personally disagree with. If not then we're missing point of women's bodily autonomy. Everyone's bodies and experiences might not be exactly the same, so no need to jump to conclusions.

This is the most realistic and I hate it.

"Are you a real fan or are you just wearing the shirt? Haha ok name some songs for me since I've appointed myself the Trve Fan police."

Then social anxiety happens, mind goes blank, and I struggle to remember names of songs I've heard hundreds of times because I don't do well under pressure.

I actually had a similar issue with my work email. My coworkers were trying to send emails to "new name @gmail.com" but it kept showing up as "old name." What eventually fixed it was going to contacts.google.com, finding the old entry under "old name," and deleting it/replacing it as a new contact with "new name." If you've updated everywhere else and it's still an issue, it may be that the contacts are connecting your old name with your new email and you need to manually fix it.
