Are the Cryptid Scales like the Lunar Tears in that they will remain after the event ends to be used next time?

Or are they like the Gardening currency and disappear after the event ends?

In sorting my clothes I have discovered that I could probably get rid of ~60% of them as they are either not something I like to wear anymore or they are wearing out/faded etc and should be replaced.

The problem is that the clothes which are currently available in stores (at least the ones I've seen) are not what I like to wear.

For example - The wide jeans trend looks ridiculous on me as I am short with slim legs but I can't find anywhere that sells skinny/straight legged jeans anymore.

So I feel like I have to keep both the skinny jeans which no longer fit (too small), and the oversized ones which fit but I dislike because I can't find anything more suitable.

I have tried thrift/charity shops but they have very limited selection (semi-rural area) and many of them reek of perfume and/or cigarette smoke even after multiple washes.

Similarly with shirts - why is it so hard to find a decent t-shirt that isn't cropped/transparent/$50+?

What am I supposed to do? Buy/wear clothes I don't particularly like? Wait for trends to change again? Make my own clothes?

Any advice?

Basically the title.

My house is a complete mess and overflowing with stuff.

I'm an adult millennial still living with family in my childhood home - so there is a LOT of accumulated junk.

Not all of it is mine, but the bits I'm struggling with are all my things.

I have made some progress (146 items gone - not including stuff that went in the bin), but am now starting to feel stuck again.

I keep finding 'stuff' I want to keep - but I also want the space cleared so it just ends up being shifted to a different area again and again.

I know I need to be harsh and get rid of more stuff if I have any chance of making the house reasonably organised. I just don't want to regret throwing away things I can't get back (sentimental items, childhood drawings, old toys etc).

Any advice?

Thank you in advance if you read this far

Basically the title.

I'm just curious to see what age people usually remove their wolves from their role as hunters/pupsitters etc in order to make them mentors.

Do you change it as soon as they turn 5? At 7yrs 4mths?

Somewhere in-between?

Does it vary depending on how much you like them?

I was waiting until they were 7yrs to change my wolves to mentors so that they get more exp/levels, but now I have a bunch of young wolves (1-2yrs) waiting for a role to open up.

I have 100 slots so I can send four hunting parties at a time. I already have 8 hunting parties though, so I never run out of energy for them and don't need more.

I also have tonnes of pupsitters so I don't need more of them either, and the foragers/scouts/herbalist are so strictly limited that they are always full.

I just feel like there must be a better way to organise this so that I don't have wolves sitting around doing nothing 😅

Any advice?

I need somewhere to vent where people might understand my frustration. Support is welcome 😞

I had a rego check done on my car and was told my number plates are "too faded" and "aren't readable".

They are perfectly legible, it's just that the clear coating is peeling a little as it is parked outside in the weather.

Ok, fine. They need to be replaced.

I go to the website to order a replacement set and the wait time is approx 21 days. My rego is due in 21 days.

I don't have custom plates - they are just a random combination which came with the car. /However/ I have had this car for probably close to 10yrs now so I am emotionally attached to these plates.

I know it's stupid. I know it doesn't make sense. I know I can get another random combination plate immediately and then my car will be approved for rego.

But I don't want to. And I shouldn't have to!

My plates have been in this condition for years! The mechanic (same guy) has never once mentioned that they need to be replaced until now.

I have tried asking if a receipt for the new plates on their way is enough to approve (the answer is no), I have tried ordering custom plates with my current combination on them (not allowed within 56 days of the rego being due - why?). I have tried asking is there is an express option (happy to pay extra) and the answer is still no.

Why can't they just give me a temporary "it's being fixed as soon as I receive the plates" piece of paper and we can all move on with our day/life?

So yea, I'm probably going to run out of rego for my only transportation because I'm emotionally invested in a random set of letters and numbers.😢

Why is it my fault/problem that the government cannot complete any tasks within a reasonable time frame? Why can't they just give a tiny bit of leeway for someone trying to do the right thing?

I'm angry at myself for not realising the plates would need replacing sooner, and for not booking the rego check further in advance (seriously, you'd think 3 weeks would be enough to have any potential issues fixed!).

I'm angry at the mechanic for not warning me sooner that the peeling bits would eventually make it fail rego. It's literally been like that for 3+ years. I'm angry at the government for being useless and slow.

I'm particularly angry/upset by the people who have told me it's not a big deal - it's a really easy fix just get different plates or "they're not custom so it doesn't matter"

It matters to me ok?

Sorry for the essay... Thank you if you read this far.

My house is a mess. My family and I (four adults) live together in a smaller-than-average house (approx 130sq metres).

None of us are any good at organising or getting rid of things which are no longer needed.

But I am actually hopeless when it comes to trying to get rid of anything that might be perceived as sentimental. This includes but isn't limited to old clothes which no longer fit, childhood toys and my old school books.

It has got to the stage where almost every available surface has something stored on it, and every cupboard/corner/storage space is bursting at the seams.

We have all lived here for 20+ years, so there is a lot of accumulated clutter.

I realise I need to get rid of -- a lot -- of 'stuff'.

But I'm already stuck.

I have identified a few reasons why and was hoping someone could offer some advice to manage these issues?

1. It feels impossible. I know you are supposed to work in small segments (sometimes even one item at a time), but it's just so exhausting and demotivating to think about how huge the problem is.

2. There is almost no space to sort anything aside from the 'walkways', and there is absolutely no room to put half-sorted boxes or bags - so it feels like it has to be done all at once.

It's Winter here in Aus and refuses to stop raining so I can't just store stuff outside (even temporarily).

Also the stuff which I use regularly and want to keep is the easiest to get to. Whereas the things I could probably part with are difficult to access (shoved in the back of cupboards etc).

3. I'm scared I will regret choosing to get rid of some things. Even if I take photos before I toss or donate something, having a photo is not the same as having the physical object. And most of these things have sentimental value, so they cannot be replaced.

Thank you for reading this far. Please let me know if you have any advice

Last month I didn't get the option to update my app and start the event until the 4th of April.

It's now the 3rd of May and I do not have the May update yet. I checked the play store and there are no pending updates.

Is anyone else getting really delayed updates?
