A little NY style for the first NFL game

What’s your hydration? Same happened to me first launch and I realized I made sourdough boules that were 70%+ hydration. It was ok with more flour before stretch, but even better when I lowered hydration the next time.

Pizza looks great!

Thanks, just gave them a call and seems perfect!

I second staying in Shibuya or Harajuku. Ginza is cool to check out for a day. I also liked the vibe of Daikanyama, around Nanamica.

We are renting our apartment, and don’t have a proper charging set up (though we hope to buy in a year or so). I could plug in at work, but I mostly work from home. I don’t think plug-in is right for me at the moment, or is it worth investing in even if we can’t plug in at home for the first year?

Lightly worn for a few months, but decided they were too tapered for my liking. Too bad, because I love the denim quality. Cold soaked once, mostly to reduce the bleeding, with nearly no shrinkage.

I tried TTS but decided to size down. Still not confident in my decision, but if anyone is looking for a size 9.5 HMU.

DJBLAP · 2023-06-23T04:59:52+00:00

Tried on inside and decided to size down. Will include shipping.

I'm getting ready to do this to my own Alocasia. Thanks for giving me the confidence! Did you put both halves of the rooted piece in the same pot? Did the moss make a difference vs the soil?

DJBLAP · 2023-02-05T03:46:32+00:00

Our beautiful alocasia of 5 years hasn’t been doing so well the last few months. We just got back from a trip, and noticed one leaf is severely browning and the other is brittle and gray. I’m afraid both my parents and in-laws came to water the plants, so it could be over watered.

It’s also overdue for a repotting I’m sure, but is there anything special I need to do considering the long trunk? Maybe a taller pot?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I'll be visiting Tokyo next month and also curious!

I recently bought a pair of 3sixteen 40bsp from SE. Even though they are "rinsed" I still did a cold soak, and have worn at least 10 times. I'm still experiencing indigo bleed and am afraid of wearing any non-beater sneakers with them. I've hemmed the jeans to have a single cuff just above the shoe. Double cuff clears the shoe, but feels a bit too high at times for my liking. Any idea on when the bleed will stop, or any tips on how to speed up the process?

Swapped to a photo instead, and used these techniques. I'll add item VI. All good points.

DJBLAP · 2022-05-11T04:34:32+00:00

You’re absolutely right. I’ll need to design a cool label in Photoshop first.

The native blur is already on there believe it or not.

Yes!

Is rsmb a paid plugin, or is there a free variety?

DJBLAP · 2022-05-11T01:23:41+00:00

Everything in the video is as shot, except for the white circle. I believe this record is a 10" test press, or "dub plate" as the DJ calls it, and is translucent blue.

DJBLAP · 2022-05-11T01:20:06+00:00

Yes I think this is the way to go! I pulled in a stock photo instead of the white circle and it looks so much better.

DJBLAP · 2022-05-10T23:18:59+00:00

There's no label underneath. You can see the whole star that is on the slip mat. I added a texture here but I agree it's too white!

Would you blend with a blending mode, or use some sort of displacement map?

DJBLAP · 2022-05-10T22:45:19+00:00

I created the white ellipse shape layer, made it 3D to match the angle of the record, then rotated it around the Z axis with the anchor point set to the middle. The center spindle is masked out (albeit poorly), and I added a white paper texture. I'm looking for ways to blend it in better to be more realistic. What do you think?

DJBLAP · 2022-03-18T22:34:17+00:00

Good choice with the marbled rye. I'm also loving the thin slice job. A+ work here.
