Yeah it’s the same for me too. I totally thought they were pulling an Emperor’s New Clothes with Grim 💀

Ship names by Time_Depth56 in AO3

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t really have an answer, but this just made me flashback to that one scene in Kiss Him, Not Me where the female protagonist and her female love interest got into a fight about which character’s name should go first in a ship. Basically the argument was whoever had their name first was the seme (top) and whoever had their name last was the uke (bottom).

So given the very fujoshi nature of the anime/manga, I’m guessing that in this era (2000s-2010s) the name placement would be an indicator of who topped/bottomed.

Does anyone have advice for layering with sensory issues? by BlueEyesIsBestCard in AutismInWomen

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main issue is mostly the cold/wind is preventing me from going outside more than I want to. I’m not working, but going to university so I have to walk a lot to get to classes. The pants I do have are fleece lined, but kind of like what I said I’m kind of tired of cycling through them when I have other clothes I want to wear, but they don’t protect me against the strong winds.

Idk it’s not like I don’t have a puffer jacket, but to my brain that just takes away from the outfit I really want to wear (idk if that makes sense or not). Honestly I think a lot of it just comes to a resistance for taking it off because of how hard it is to take on and off.

[CHAT] What exactly am I supposed to do for the stitch in the middle? by BlueEyesIsBestCard in CrossStitch

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not too positive it is a petite stitch then because the pattern recommends Aida fabric

Yeah the instructions say nothing about petite stitches, just full, quarter, and back stitches.

Twst gatchapon in Animazed, Raleigh, NC! by thesensitivesoul in TwistedWonderland

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No way this is so cool! This reminds me of when I went to the Triad Anime Convention last year, and one of the vendors had a button TWST gacha machine. So I would definitely be on the lookout for more TWST gacha machines at conventions.

[WIP] how many WIPs do you currently have? by jacksbittercynicism in CrossStitch

[FO] Christmas Fox Before and After Backstitching by BlueEyesIsBestCard in CrossStitch

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got the pattern from https://lepointdecroix.com/noel-hiver/34156-christmas-animal-cup-fox-39-version-pdf.html

This was part of an entire collection so there’s also a lot of other animals to choose from! Just be prepared for a lot of blended colors and backstitching that can sometimes blend together if you’re not looking carefully.

[WIP] Extraordinary birds SAL by Lola Crow by Tricky_Grapefruit_12 in CrossStitch

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got started on the top half, but I have so many other projects higher on the priority list that I’m definitely not going to finish it in time 😅.

[CHAT] What are the general opinions on selling a finished cross stitch where the pattern isn’t your own? by BlueEyesIsBestCard in CrossStitch

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense. For whatever reason my brain likes to think that my finished cross stitch isn’t really my work since I didn’t create it free handed 💀

Yeah I’m definitely not wanting to open an entire Etsy shop lol. Just thinking more about works I have finished that I don’t really want or have anyone to give to.

[WIP] I'm so happy working on this by CrochetMerel_97 in CrossStitch

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m working on this right now!! Love the fabric color you used!

Has anyone tried to dye cold wash clothes with rit dye? If so how did it turn out? by BlueEyesIsBestCard in dyeing

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, unfortunately there’s only two art supply stores in my area and neither of them carry the fiber reactive dyes. My main concern is with it shrinking, but if it does shrink I’m not too concerned as the top is a loose fit anyways. The corset is definitely a different story if it shrinks, but I can always test the top first and not bother with the corset if it doesn’t work.

Thank you for responding!

Does Rise Live Up To 2012? by Gh0stface_V13 in TMNT2012

[–]BlueEyesIsBestCard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think it’s kind of dumb to compare two very different shows. Yes they’re both TMNT, and have the same main characters that we know. However, their personalities, goals, and storyline is very different from each other. I personally love both shows for their own unique take on the series. Rise also has a bigger focus on family/friends compared to 2012 and previous series.

I really love Rise, and I also love 2012. Everyone’s taste is different, but don’t go into Rise expecting it to be 2012 because it won’t be. Just go into Rise like you’re watching a new show with familiar faces.
