Cool that you tried. Watercolour is really fun! I hope you enjoyed it. If you would like a few inspirations or pointers for watercolour, let me know. I've been doing a lot of it at work and have learnt how to get really satisfying results and experiences

Love sword comic. Go take a look. It's the best-organised internet comic I know. With all characters, worlds and swords (duh) labeled and catalogued

You're probably gonna find them through the material. They're mostly denim or flannel. I just entered "denim shirt men" into my browser and got the shirts immediately. You're going to look at Levi's and Wrangler and the like. But why not shop for them second hand, too. They look much better imho if they're a bit worn. Or please go take a look at your country's fair fashion stores over those big brands.

I try to rationalise that the wording itself is not important to me and I can't understand why would it be important to them, why won't they just accept that some days with me are better without any confrontation?

That's not how relationships work. It's important to them. If they are important to you, then you put in the effort. If you can't put in the effort on some days, maybe spend some time apart. The second part of that quote is also pretty problematic. If you are not respectful to them, telling them that they should not confront you about it is really toxic.

I'm autistic and depressed. I make similar mistakes. But I gotta ask myself the question: do I ask of my partner(s) things that I would myself not do? It seems that you are doing that. You're asking them to ignore your behaviour, while you also ask of them to behave correctly towards you.

Yeah I'm still sometimes discovering wrong titles, too.

I finally made the jump to tidal this month, my subscription to Spotify is running out. I hate giving my money to Spotify. Yeah, tidal ain't perfect, yet. But I hope with more people joining, it's going to be better soon

I invested a lot less. Go ahead. Long-term investment usually pay off if you don't need the money

The hard but clear way: ask. If you feel like you wouldn't want to have a connection to her if she treats you like this, then you don't have much to lose by just making it open.

Basically send her your post

So much. I mean that's what the book burning was all about. There's blacklisted authors. There's state secrets. It might be information that's legal only for certain people. I mean, if we're being pedantic, it's illegal for you to have information about me if I'm not giving it to you.

Let me give a counter argument: everything that annoys you about therapy can be part of therapy. Everything that happens in therapy can and should be part of it. So why not being up the topic of this post with your therapist? How does that make you feel?

Therapy is not really about the therapist. They're just there to give you a surface to reflect off of.

 

I wish I could claim to have shot it in the wild. But this is a ranger talk at grouse mountain, north Vancouver

 

[edit: I thank everyone for their comments and time. A lot of very interesting opinions and view points. Unfortunately also a lot of things that went away from the actual answer. So I'm thinking maybe this thread can be closed without deleting it?]

The more I hear people talk about it who aren't cis-het men, the more I hear criticism about the concept. But so far, I've only heard people say that it's stupid, that it's not a thing, that it's men's own fault etc. But I've yet to understand where that criticism comes from. I don't want to start a discussion on whether or not it's real or not. I just want to understand where the critics are coming from.

 

Hi peeps, My big trip through Canada is only three weeks away now and I'm starting to feel nervous 😬 So I thought I'd post here to ask y'all a few things, mainly about socialising and meeting folks. - specifics about my travels at the bottom

1.) I'm still looking for couch surfing hosts in Vancouver and Toronto. People on beWelcome aren't really answering. Is there some advice? Or advice on cheap accommodation for 1-3 nights in those towns? Or maybe even some of y'all who'd like to hosts me :)

2.) what are some good ways to meet people on the road? Are there social media apps that are favoured in Canada? Specific places for travellers? (YMCA, hostels, clubs...?)

3.) any other things you'd like to tell me? XD

My trip is: arriving in Vancouver on the 25th of Juli, renting a car on the next day. Plans to travel the west for about 3 weeks. Domestic flight to Toronto on the 16th of August, rental car in Toronto on the 17th, driving around Ontario and the east for two weeks. Departure from Toronto on the first of September.

 

This is among the best of the paintings I made. I was trying a wet-on-wet which isn't easy with acrylics, so I used a thin gesso ground to paint on.

I've started doing more watercolour paintings again at work (I work with kids at a school) and I really enjoy it. I think I started enjoying painting a lot more since I stopped trying to paint something specific and started to just see what happened and what I felt like. Today I wanted to experiment with crayons and watercolour. It worked out perfectly: the watercolours didn't run over the crayon lines and thus created this cool "rain" effect. Everything is done in watercolour, I just traced the buildings with a dark blue crayon before applying the runny paint for the rain

Hallo. Ich hoffe dass es erwünscht ist, hier einfach mal eine lockere Unterhaltung anzuzetteln

Ich merke immer wieder dass die Traditionen und Gewohnheiten sehr unterschiedlich sein können. Zu dieser Jahreszeit sind es bei mir die Lieder, die sich stark unterscheiden. Lieder, die ich schon viele Jahre singe, die andere Menschen noch nie gehört haben und umgekehrt.

Also mal die Frage: welche Lieder singt ihr in der Winter- und Weihnachtszeit?

Meine Lieblingslieder:

  • Maria durch ein Dornwald ging
  • Es ist ein Ros entsprungen
  • Es kommt ein Schiff geladen
  • Oh come oh come Emmanuel
  • Macht hoch die Tür
  • Vom Himmel hoch da komm ich her
  • Señora Donna Maria
 

okay. here's a few things that trip me up: basically every exit lol, but specifically north-east. this corner is super weird. the road north (1 way) is not really connected to the roundabout, there is like a seperate road/lane that runs "past" the roundabout from east to west. but the roundabout has an exit to that road. and that road splits up into a lane onto the roundabout and one that runs past it.

i'm also not 100% on what to do about the slip lanes that still kinda brush the roundabout. i'm trying with curbless roads, but they're super finnicky

here's one more image with the streetview lanes

Hey there. I am incredibly sad, downright depressed and mentally exhausted.

I wanted to celebrate my birthday yesterday for the first time (maybe ever?) with lots of nice people. I invited about 30-50 people. Some, I invited personally, some just casually through groups. Lots of those people I thought of as somehow close and friendly.

I exhausted myself in the effort of preparing the party, I rented a room, I prepared photos, activities, food, music, and just put a lot of mental energy into the planning. I have been planning it for about 2 months, invited those who were most important to me back then even.

5 people showed up.

I am devastated. I was always so anxious about my birthday and never celebrated it. I think I removed myself from groups a lot in my life. And only the last two years, I've started to understand my diagnosis and how to communicate with people. This throws all my anxiety and pain back into my body and brain.

I don't know how to deal with it. Especially I don't know how to interact with the people that were important to me and who didn't show (or those who didn't even cancel). My past behaviour was burning down all the bridges. I don't think I should do that. But I also don't know how to pretend like it doesn't hurt....

Any advice about rejection anxiety and ... well, real rejection?

Thank you.

 

So, i am getting back into a cities project after being out of the game for a while. I'm using https://terraining.ateliernonta.com/ to generate heightmap and overlay image. it also exports OSM data (I also tried to do it manually with the same result)

now what happens is this. i think this has always happened. it seems like the "scale" is off. the roads are "correct" but slightly shifted in all directions. they're not all just slightly north like the picture. at one point it exactly overlaps and the rest is too far south. like the scale is wrong. like it's too small or something. but the OSM scale is 1. did i do something wrong?

(i looked through the github but couldn't find anything. also no similar things on the workshop comments right away)

 

I don't really know where to start. It's not hurting me, but I'm confused. I don't recall doing anything different o not sure where to start looking for issues.

It boots up, shows me my drives and says "settings were reset to default values" If I go into bios, nothing looks off to me. Windows doesn't show an issue.

I'm running Win10. I can give you all the info you want. Just need a hint as to where to start looking. Thanks
