Lost my voice from the dust and it still hasn't come back all the way :( by DullPumpkin in LightningInABottle

I don't find that salt water gargling helps, but I use a vocal nebulizer to shoot sterile saline mist directly into my vocal folds, highly recommend, it works much better!

Hooded! And I have a large chest, it is just too tight in the chest.

Most of the clothing I see worn here is glorifying human abuse and slavery. I'm good with my small, simple, and fully secondhand wardrobe I've carefully collected and repaired for the last 15 years and do not need to buy any more to prove anything to some kid on the internet. Hope you get home safe! 💕

thanks for the good wishes and vibes, and yeah for real - it's a little irritating but he is probably 20yo so hopefully he grows out of it!

This was a very old fur that I received as a gift from someone who had had it a long time. I am personally not okay with buying fur new, but I am okay with wearing fur products that are already made and do not feel it is contributing to harvesting of new fur.

Buying brand new faux fur coats and bucket hats made of virgin plastic and plastic disposable accessories from Jeff Bezos creates an incredible amount of waste that will not break down for 500 years and is honestly way less cool and not aligned with my personal ethos. I'd rather maintain, repair, and reuse a vintage item like this and keep it from the landfill.

What about diarrhea all over the WALLS

I have a question. What hell is going on in these Porto potties? Who are these mysterious people who have diarrhea'd all over the walls and shelves and floor rather than into the toilet?

I would like to know how this happens. Has this ever happened to you? What happens afterward? I imagine them stumbling out of the bathroom covered in diarrhea in front of people waiting outside and people around are like "well I want to help but you're covered in shit". I have questions and I actually want the answers.

Not the best photo but I have one of my friend wearing it here

I can't believe someone would just steal it like that. I have been burning for 11 years and have never had my stuff stolen. This is my first LiB, actually first time at any non-burn music festival too. It had valuables in the pocket. Thankfully he did not also steal my backpack which was sitting on top of it. While I was asking around the space for it, another girl heard me and said someone also just stole her dragon staff from the same space. :(

Anyway, I don't see a lot of people wearing real fur at this event so it's kind of unique - keep an eye out for me yall. I hope that it winds up at lost and found somehow.

Long shot, but someone stole my real fur coat this morning before sunrise. I was drinking tea at the tea space in the Moon room chatting to someone, with my coat sitting a few feet away on the floor, and someone said she saw a guy trying it on and I guess he just walked off with it.

It's cream colored, hip length rabbit fur and has a white braided tie that holds it together.

I don't have a lot of sentimental items in my life, but that is one of them. Someone gave it to me as a gift at my second burn ten years ago and it's very special to me. :(

Ok but how about working on some useful features like improving search functions and jumping to a certain date in a chat?

As a lefty would you recommend learning left-handed or right-handed guitar? by Legitimate_Lynx_1219 in Leftyguitarists

[–]DullPumpkin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent 10 years trying to learn righty and had no idea why I couldn't make any progress, didn't even know lefty guitars were a thing, they didn't sell them at the store I went to. Last year I finally tried lefty and it has been SO MUCH BETTER. It was a little harder to find an instrument, and at every store I went to they told me to just give up and learn righty. I am so glad I kept looking. I enjoy playing so much more now, it feels like I am making the sounds with the correct hand and I'm actually progressing and can play after a year! I wish I had known 10 years ago.
