I'm a bug enthusiast, so insect specific subreddits like r/moth r/weevil r/entomology

Game ones for all my random niche games I like.

But also I have a lot of health problems so going to those specific subs with my specific problem and knowing I'm not crazy felt really liberating. I know there's a new disability thing on here, but collectively being in a community with the people who have my specific problem made me feel less alone.

 

I am really craving a game similar to vampire survivors. It's just so good and I cannot stop playing it but i need to take a break lol

No that's totally reasonable because A Psalm for the Wild Built is such a great book. I need to read A Prayer for the Crown Shy though. That one I'm waiting for my turn for the copy on Libby

Obviously, they don't have to slide into the cozy genre. But what books do you cuddle up with during a thunderstorm, or your variable weather of choice? Personally, Becky Chambers has become one of my favorites. I also read LOTR when I need a "good guys doing the right thing just because it's the right thing to do".

It was on r/fixit. Every single time I ask a question on there I somehow get attacked every time. Last time I asked how to fix something on my kids toy box and someone said "maybe you shouldn't have kids if they are going to destroy stuff". sir. For real? You ever seen a child?

I truly feel this. I literally asked a simple question about getting crayon off my wall, and was brigaded by people being hateful toward my children and myself. Who cares yall... its just some crayon.

This morning, I was mourning it. However, I made a post asking a really simple question earlier but was instead attacked. It was truly such a simple question about something related to my house. So, not anymore.

I would not do mods your first play-through. However, what I would recommend, is just doing whatever it is you feel like doing when you play. See a cave you want to walk into? Do it. Did you get assigned a new quest that looks more interesting than the one you're doing? Hop on it. Don't let certain storylines drag you down if you don't enjoy them.

I have a few, Skyrim is my biggest one. I basically maladaptive daydream Skyrim. If I'm feeling bad I play through it in my head. Some others are No Mans Sky, Vampire Survivors, and generally pixel games are always really comforting to me. I also like to go back and play dragon fable sometimes when I need some nostalgia.
