Harp the Wigglytuff @wigglytuffitout@computerfairi.es

@knifethievingcrow yeah! i'm sure that people have been hashing out that kinda thing and debating it endlessly. so no need for you to post yourself when you can just google something like "overwatch high graphics requirements" and probably pull up five billion results of nerds having slap-fights about it L M A O, then you can just skim those and go "hm, it seems like most people agree that you really want x and y to do this. i'll look for x and y!"

@knifethievingcrow honestly that's a completely valid way to look at it!

and if you have a laptop that plays overwatch really nicely, you'll *still* have something with enough beef and brawn to play a lot of other games too.

there ain't no shame at all in knowing what you want and buying what you want instead of like... over-buying, yknow? it's like you're looking at a sensible sedan for your daily commute in suburbia instead of a four wheel drive behemoth LOL

@knifethievingcrow honestly that's a good way to do it!

fortunately blizzard is pretty good at making games that you can run on, like, a toaster. and overwatch is also a game a whole lot of people play, so you'll be able to google and find where people on forums are like "i know these are the MINIMUM requirements, but what should i look for to ACTUALLY run the game and have it look nice?" and people taco bout that very thing and give input on it

@knifethievingcrow honestly it can be intimidating as fuq trying to figure this shit out because it's jargon, like, all the way down LOL, so i can totally explain some of what i actually mean when i say stuff like "you want a dedicated gpu" if you'd like! you can also poke around people's reviews and usually at least one will talk about stuff like "i can run x game on y settings" to kinda give you an idea of where it's at tbh

@knifethievingcrow ok to be fair to you i am Oan The Nyquil and words are Complicated LOL

i can explain a bit instead of tossing just endless got dam jargon at your head if you'd like lol!

i am super super excited that the bb cream i got seems like it hasn't made my face hate me, AND ACTUALLY MATCHES MY SKIN TONE which is near-impossible because my skin thinks the color yellow is fake news

a few pimples this morning but honestly given that they're only on like the tip of my nose... i do keep blowing gunk out of my nose constantly into kleenex and that'd probably be enough irritation for my super sensitive skin lol

@knockout i think it's something other people do, but i think multiple accounts are mostly for the organizational type of thing. so it's probably doable as long as you have a system to easily communicate to people which post is in which category ^0^

"where did i put my drink," local wigglytuff asks herself, while holding her drink in one hand,

today's episode title: Harp and the Amazing Technicolor Nasal Discharge

@soft OH THAT IS SO PRETTY!!! can i ask where you got it? (my dad both is a fountain pen snob and *notoriously hard to shop for* so i may be squirreling ideas away for later, and/or want that pen for myself because omg it's just so pretty and elegant....)

@quephird@mastodon.social you know, seeing this drift by the fediverse... i have several ideas of the direction you need to go in.

but i'll be honest, it's tough love all the way, so i'll leave it as something that you get to decide if you want to receive or not.

@troubleMoney HONESTLY

i think they were forgetting that balance can also mean a bit like. balancing the books.

IF YOU ZERO THINGS OUT, SHIT'S BALANCED...

@nyah@octodon.social > with it. and since i'm trying a type with no THC, it means that it's not getting me high, and i won't pop hot on any drug testing. i've had a lot of success with it! you can get it in gel caps for easy dosing and measurement (also so you don't have to like chug oil), and there's also topical applications which i haven't tried yet.

that's about all i got so far - but feel free to poke me with more questions! i'm sure there's stuff i'm forgetting but i'm happy to help as i can 💖

5. if it's more of a diffuse everywhere chronic pain, that gets harder to deal with. there are many supplements people try with this sort of nerve-ey pain, but i'll attempt to cut through the bullshit and give you 2 recs. first up: vitamins, especially B vitamins. b vitamins are surprisingly easy to miss out on, and really important for nerves to regenerate and maintain themselves with.

6. ...cbd oil. ok yes i know this is perilously close to 'just weed', but i've had a lot of success >

@nyah@octodon.social

3. there are some topical things you can try as well. i really like Two Old Goats cream because i feel like it's the one thing that works for me. but it's also worth investigating if lidocane patches/sprays do you any good, or if cooling sprays with menthol help.

4. heat/ice as well! ice for if things feel inflamed, heat if things feel stiff. experiment with a heating pad and ice pad to see if there are places that like this. (remember to not leave ice on long - 20 mins only.) >

@nyah@octodon.social yes actually!

1. what type of pain are you having? is this something where working the trigger points can relieve muscle tightness? (there are a lot of youtube tutorials about finding these tutorials and doing self-massage to mash them to get the muscle to let go.)

2. if it's muscle pain, https://www.askdoctorjo.com/ is a fantastic resource for stretches and exercises, sorted by area of body. going to a legit physical therapist is of course better, but that's a lot of money

@Los_Ingobernables_De_Jorts@jorts.horse depends on what you're wanting chiropractic care to do.

if you want someone to pop your back real fucken good, yeah dawg chiropractic is great for that.

but if a chiropractor says that he can cure any disease like getting rid of your allergies, if the root of all disease is something with your spine yada yada yada, that's a crock of shit lol.

a good chiropractor will be up-front that all they do is cracking your back and that's it.

basically what i'm saying is that anakin skywalker fell to the dark side because the institutions around him so clearly and obviously decided that a mounting avalanche of trauma was something not only that they could ignore, but that they could actively punish anakin skywalker for daring to have, so that the only coping strategy he had was guilt and self-hatred.

YEAH WHAT DID Y'ALL THINK WAS GONNA FUCKING HAPPEN, JEDI ASSHOLES.

i mean the clone wars 3d series makes this real fucking obvious.

"so for this, obi-wan, you gotta fake your own death. don't tell anakin tho." "oh ok." "...ok so anakin figured it out and he's really mad because he's been grieving hard should somebody go check on him?"

"nah he knows to just not have feelings sweatie :)"

"ok so anakin's beloved padawan just left the order and he's taking it real hard, should somebody go check on him?"

"he knows :) sweatie :) no feelings :)"
