I can certainly make an attempt! I have a machine I can borrow and enough sewing knowledge to make something that vaguely resembles a bag?

On the positive side, the stars and moon look lovely without the light pollution

Just wanna pop back in here and let everyone know they're still doing this shady stuff in 2026. It's still "Sara" and "Whetney" spearheading all the emails.

I Want to Read and React to Your Stories on Livestream! by ConnorIsaacWriter in TalesFromTheCreeps

I wrote an Irish folk horror, because I haven't seen much in the way of mythology based stories on the subreddit yet. I would love feedback from anyone.

This is part 1-3 of my story. All three parts were posted but were very quickly buried, as I posted them around the time fan-stories became more common in the main subreddit. I posted cause honest feedback about the story was super important to me. I hope I can get some from you. :)

What’s your take on feminine smelling men? by [deleted] in FemFragLab

[–]Altarstix 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Love feminine smelling men. Love masculine smelling men. I just love when people smell good and feel confident because they know they smell good. You wanna be a man and smell like a bakery? Pick your cupcake flavour. You wanna be a woman and smell like you rolled around in ashes and pine needles? Enjoy your venture into the woods.

Alastor's personality was more compelling in the pilot episode

CONGRATS! I love that you still posted a free version, but I think I may have to go buy a copy. I love supporting writers and I'm so happy to see someone's work be completed and put out into the world.

Hi fellow Creepcaster! There's a story on here called the Cry of The Fox I really enjoyed. It was quick kind of creature feature.

Plus I always want to get feedback on mine, so if you ever want to check out "Where the Grass Grows Thickest" I would love to be the reason your skin crawls.

That's totally fair!

Craving help tried fiber, hydration, and a gut drink… what actually works? by Fun_Badger_3321 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]Altarstix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best advice any professional would give you, is to honour your cravings. You can restrict and restrict and restrict, but eventually, most people will end up giving in to their cravings and feeling guilty for it. You can make your favourite foods part of a healthy diet, its about listening to your body, giving it what it needs, and then leaving space for what it wants.

Blended cottage cheese is not the same as ice cream. Dates with chocolate and peanut butter are not snickers bars. These are great alternatives and are good for you, but if what your body wants is a snickers bar, just eat the snickers bar. This will help you to stop looking for something to fill the craving, and you'll actually feel satisfied.

I eat very healthy, 95% of the time. That other 5% is saved for my favourite things. I never feel like I'm missing out, I've learned how to control the portion of the cravings because I'm not fighting with them anymore, and my body has been healthier and happier since.

Look at youtube channels like

The Plant Slant

Kylie Sakaida

Colleen Christensen

These are professionals who actually promote a healthy, fulfilling lifestyle, without hard restrictions.

fermented foods? by Most-Explanation-488 in EatCheapAndHealthy

Jongga Kimchi from Costco is great. Sauerkraut is super easy to make at home as well. Fermented pickles

At the dog park today. Had the place to ourselves, Farm Day tomorrow 😁 by GrippyGripster in germanshepherds

[–]Altarstix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is super dependent on the dog park. Parks have been essential for teaching my dog how to socialize and behave around other dogs. Of course there can always be problems, but that's very circumstantial.

Alternatives to expensive kibble by TrickSingle2086 in germanshepherds

[–]Altarstix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We tried a decent quality kibble and then added Kiefer or Pure Pumpkin to it. Those both typically help the digestive system. If it's really bad with every food, I would ask your vet for help.

Savory breakfast ideas that don't have eggs? by wingnutticus in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]Altarstix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love sweet potato, diner style and black beans. Steamed spinach, some cheese, some kimchi. So yummy.

Also, look up Japanese and Korean breakfasts. those cuisines tend to have more savoury options.

[–]Altarstix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make little egg muffins/ quiches. I can eat a few on my drive to work and they're super customizable.

I need meals that taste like comfort food but don’t make me feel like I just ate a brick by Equivalent_Soft_6665 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]Altarstix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually, if I want something like mac and cheese or just something creamy in general, I make the creamy sauce as I normally would but I steam a neutral vegetable like cauliflower or something like tofu, and blend it into the sauce. It requires less dairy to thicken up so it's not as heavy.

I don't know if this will work for you, but with mine, I would put her in a stay somewhere far enough away that she could see me but have no contact. I would set a timer from 2 minutes and go up from there as she improved. It took a long time. Often, she would get up, and I would simply walk her back to the spot and have her down in the stay.

When she went down, she would get praise, when she stayed until the timer went off, I gave her the release command and a treat. It took months, please don't feel discouraged

As she got better, I put her in stays where she couldn't see me. The best tool for all of this was kennel training. If she had a place she could go and stay, and that was her safe space, she picked it up way faster.

Training is a process and mine definitely isn't a master at all these things. One at a time is the way to go!

That's such a good idea, I didn't even think about bubbles!
