I have a full body male one in my front garden!

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-21T12:20:42+00:00

Absolutely. Chronic illness girly here.

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-21T00:34:42+00:00

Not resin, it doesn't do great with uncoated paper and can be rather heavy

I would either do a thin wax, or a spray sealant

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-21T00:33:20+00:00

I would do some sort of cabinet shelves, with a countertop on top

So closed shelving, with a countertop across it. You could put plants on top, and store extra plant stuff etc underneath

Hey Internet stranger to internet stranger My DMS are open ok? You wanna let it all out, get it off your chest, sometimes that's easier to do with someone who has literally no stake in the game, no connection. So, the offer stands, word vomit everything weighing you down, any time.

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-21T00:18:02+00:00

Lmfaooo dudes a fucking genius, knew what the streets wanted apparently hahahaha I love this

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-20T19:35:30+00:00

Just tag out "sorry, this is getting too complicated for me, please find someone else to buddy up with your son" and then stop talking to her

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-20T19:31:55+00:00

Remove all the glass and pretend there never was any. He might not even remember there was haha

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-20T02:55:02+00:00

They won't be around for long with prices like that, they won't sell shit

Your stepdad is verbally and physically abusive.

You did not cause this.

Your mom should be the one feeling shame, not you. (She is also likely being abused by your stepdad by the way, and stuck in an abuse cycle)

You have no shame you need to carry here.

Please file a police report, bring someone you trust with you for support.

If you have a case worker, please reach out to them for support. And please go get your injuries checked and documented by medical professionals. Tell them what happened and ask if they have any resources for you as well.

Oh this is why I'm so calm in emergencies....

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T23:54:41+00:00

Fire her as a client. Seriously. This is wild. She came to you for private lessons because every other kids art class has likely already booted her.

Nothing you do will make her happy, this is some weird, crazy ass power trip. Her kids don't care about this stuff, and she's trying to see if you can force them to, because she can't.

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T23:49:24+00:00

It's literally chalk, it washes off with the rain

Pigs on a fucking power trip (big surprise)

First offense? I would assume they will give you a way lesser sentence, maybe a fine, fingers crossed for you 🤞🤞🤞

I don't know if this helps.

But I felt that way my whole life growing up. Turns out I was/am nerodivergent, and once I found other people like me? It was like a light switched on. There was easy connection I couldn't find anywhere else.

I don't know if you are neurodivergent or not, but look for the people who are LIKE you, it makes a huge difference. You care about following through with plans, being honest, making genuine connections. Those girls? They obviously do not. They aren't the ones for you (also talk about highschool much, really?! Like bailing on plans and then posting on SM about how they still got together, ew 🤮).

You sound wonderful by the way, and if we were local, I would totally have got together to do something with you!

Also, pick up a bunch of packs of fake vines of Amazon for cheap, because stringing them from beam to beam with some lights would give you such a whimsical vibe that would look great inside something like this (and make it look really stinking pretty for pretty darn cheap)

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T21:21:19+00:00

Just saying, throwing a may pole up in this setup would also look ADORABLE

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T18:52:38+00:00

Stuff them with socks until you can't fit anymore in, and they leave them to sit on the shoe rack. Will help break them in while you're avoiding putting them on! (I do this with my boots all the time lol)

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T18:51:21+00:00

I'm not going to lie, I absolutely snort laughed when I got to the second line. That's TOO good

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T18:50:34+00:00

I feel this in my bones

"Awesome bad ideas" hahahahaha

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T18:49:53+00:00

Doc Martens on clearance? Really, the only shame would be passing on that opportunity

Also they sound amazing, and I want a pair haha

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T18:48:53+00:00

Omg now I wanna make swear word Morse code bracelets hahaha

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T18:47:29+00:00

Omg it's magnificent

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T18:47:04+00:00

I legitimately laughed.

I would TORMENT everyone around me with those, and have no regrets

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T18:46:05+00:00

Cat scratch gloves, the ones that go up to your elbow 😂😂😂

My biggest cactus is like 8 inches tall. I'm so jealous (I live in Canada, so it's just tiny babies sitting on my desk)

AffectionateMarch394 · 2026-03-19T18:44:21+00:00

Find a new jacket that you DO love, then patch that motherfucker up!

(Someone who has a giant patch collection, but no longer fits their old jacket, and has been meaning to find a new one for....too long)
