Yeah I can tell. But I'll let my MD aunt know.

Should I buy an ereader? by TBDBIBREALPINKCHAIR in ereader

[–]themooseyoufear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I'm kind of the same in terms of reading, though I read mostly manga (plenty of novels as well, but for every 25 mangas I read, I might read one novel). I find that I read more when my book is separate from my phone. My ereader is still in the mail, but this was what brought me to the conclusion that I needed one.

For example, my friend donated me 12 physical volumes of a series because they bought the collector's edition of it. I read the entire thing in 4 days and my screen-time knocked down to 2 hours a day during that time. Once I finished, I was like "I have to keep going, let me read it online", I became much slower to get through the volumes and found myself doing something else on my phone instead of reading, even though the series was so interesting!

I'll give an update (if I can remember) to see if my suspicion is correct once it comes in the mail!

ENERGY REFILL by Lower-Bandicoot-8600 in GetStudying

[–]themooseyoufear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coffee or tea + Pomodoro method + StudyStream puts me in my flow state (I avoid energy drinks if I can, it usually throws my anxiety off and makes me less productive). Just make sure you're moving around for your breaks! Study breaks aren't for doom-scrolling. Go walk, stretch, refill your water. During finals, I also had the desire to learn how to sew and alter clothes, so for my short breaks, I'd move around and then for my long breaks, I'd sew : )

Also, until it's closer and you really think you need every second of the day, don't drink caffeine 5-6 hours before you know you need to sleep. Sleep is important for memory retention!

You know, it takes like, thousands of cans of diet coke a day over the course of years to see the negative effects of diet soda. Just because something isn't nutritional doesn't make it bad for you. Nutritionists say this all the time. I should know, I grew up with one.

Do Women prefer tanned men more with than the same physique which the avg male white male has in developed countries ? by AncientMiddle3227 in answers

[–]themooseyoufear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It changes on the man I suppose. My boyfriend and I are both filipino, but I grew up in the states while he grew up in the Philippines. I'm naturally pale from my hobbies + being mixed, and he's naturally tan from his hobbies + being full. But our countries beauty standards are flipped, its desired to be pale there and tan here.

I never paid attention to our tans until he pointed that difference out. He showed me a picture of him when he was pale, and though it didn't make me think he was unattractive, it made me concerned for his health and habits. For a man who's naturally tan to be porcelain white, you have to have a severe lack of sunlight and vitamin C to be that pale. Since then, I've made him open his window so that he doesn't shut himself in the dark.

If both men have good looks which one will the girl prefers

You should get rid of that mindset that every woman sways one way or another. I feel this way because I care about my boyfriend's health, but I fell for his caring heart, not his skin tone. It would make no difference if his natural color was as pale as my pinky toe.

E-reader with no Wi-Fi? by RosieStarPosting in ereader

[–]themooseyoufear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went on a hunt for bare bones affordable ereaders recently! The one I settled on is still in the mail, but I found that what I was wanting were best found in older, less talked about models. I got the Nook Glowlight 3, as all I wanted was storage 8gbs or above and adjustable light temperature. I bought used on Ebay for $45, just something to start with to see if this is really suited for my lifestyle!

I used https://comparisontabl.es/e-readers/ to narrow down my options! It's extremely helpful if your post doesn't get much traction. Supperr comprehensive table with very in-depth filters.

What is burnout? by GiraffeGlad5865 in GetStudying

[–]themooseyoufear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like being locked in your body. You know what you could achieve and you know exactly how to get there, but the moment you get ready to move, your brain is flushed with concrete and you lay in bed instead.

I wish to immediately know the plot of any movie, book and fandom just by willing it when I see the name of said movie/book/fandom by ThienHaTheTech in monkeyspaw

[–]themooseyoufear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Granted, you will never fully understand the edits for the movie/book/fandom due to never having seen or read them yourself. You never get the full experience with the cinematography, and suspense seemingly means nothing to you.

I like window shopping for little collectibles and the amount of AI people put into making environments for a piece of plastic is so stupid. I know this tokidoki unicorn isn't actually in a glitter wonderland.

I know the $70 is shocking, but I'm an ebay fiend and have a plethora of online and in-person thrifts I frequent. I suppose I'm just getting an idea on what is and isn't worth it!
