  • Great job being the sucky books. You completely nailed it and proved why this post exists by saying the same obnoxious things I’ve heard 5,000 times. I have an incurable chronic illness, that wall ain’t crumbling anytime soon short of a major advance in medical science. If I’m too exhausted to get to the toilet without help, how am I supposed to push through that?? Oh wait, I’ve tried pushing through that, you wanna guess what happens? I pass out, fun times.

    The sad reality is people like you making assumptions about why someone they do not know is struggling. You are telling me I need to do something that is physically impossible. So yeah, saying it is easier than doing it when it can’t be done. I push through so much crap, an absurd amount of it, but when I hit my breaking point I stop. Pushing through has caused me more harm than good. And then people like you come along and tell me I “just have to push through”. NO! I’m gonna stick to respecting my body enough to listen to what it’s telling me.





  • In my case mostly radioactive bars, and starfruit wine.

    Spending an entire day with luck boosting food and drink, 2 combined rings that each have full magnetism (so usually two iridium bands with either a magnet or glowstone ring), and a slingshot of explosive ammo. Just resetting floor 1 over and over again until you see ore you can shoot, shoot it, click the ladder so time is paused while the rings attract the ore, back up, repeat. I can get over 200 ore a day like that on a high luck day. Average of 2.3 ore per node, about 1.3 shots per node, craft explosive ammo from deconstructed spinners bought from Willy (deconstructers at the top of the ladder with a chest with the tackle next to it). That’s 40 bars, at 4,500 each with blacksmith, 4,359 when you account for the tackle (4,077 if you buy the coal), so 174k. My record is 265 ore, so 231k for the day.

    Greenhouse full of starfruit and turn it into wine, 215k for every harvest, every 13 days with no fertilizer, 9 days with deluxe speed-gro (only 80g from the Oasis, negligible cost after enough harvests), for an average of 16.5k/23.9k per day.

    Pre 1.5 I would do skull cavern dives with bombs and staircases for prismatic shards and iridium which I would make into bars.

    I haven’t ever made it year 3 spring 1, but I have managed it in the spring of year 3.



  • Exactly. Like I have to ignore a lot of pain constantly, but that’s cause I live with chronic pain 24/7/365. So if I want to do anything with my life I have to deal with it when it’s manageable. But when it passes my threshold I am out. Done, I need to rest, take a break, meds, nap, etc. And then I get shamed by people “for not being able to handle a little pain”, even though I’m in more pain every day than many people have ever been in.




  • Yep, like cats have feelings, respect them. My sister warned me her cat was really shy when I first came over. So I just didn’t expect to see her much. But to my surprise and delight she took right to me, cuddle rolling in my lap and asleep within 30 minutes of walking through the door. She then spent most of the night sleeping on me. My sister was not amused 😅. Apparently in the months she’d had her cat she’d never done that with my sister.
