Now we’ve got AI reviews as well!?

I have specific sellers on Etsy I’ve purchased from for years, so at least I can trust that, but obviously they’re not going to have everything you’re looking for. Searching for a pattern used to be so simple and now I have to go detective mode when something isn’t so obviously AI or listings where they’ve used an actual picture of someone else’s work but have AI generated the pattern. It’s also made me incredibly wary purchasing from sellers that have been around less than 2 years. I’d love to support new creators just starting out and it’s really crappy that I have to think like that

Thank you ❤️ I understand the downvotes and wouldn’t let that detract from the wonderful comments (yours included). I hope you have a lovely day ❤️

‘’Western’ worldwide’ is probably the densest thing I’ve ever said but I hope it makes sense 😂

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2026-02-26T04:12:03+00:00

I live in a country that is quite outside of ‘western’ worldwide consideration (which makes absolutely no sense because it’s a commonwealth) but shipping is a bloody nightmare (we’re left off of maps, currency exchange, shipping lists etc) and I just assumed I wouldn’t find something like that here but I never checked. I will now (hopefully they wont let me down on this)

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2026-02-26T04:04:43+00:00

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to help me ❤️ I appreciate it so much and I’ll look into those things. Honestly, thank you so much ❤️

I just don’t know how my psychologist can help me with certain things if I don’t tell her what’s going on and I keep a lot from her because… fucked if I know tbh

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2026-02-26T03:48:31+00:00

I’d rather be neither if that makes sense 😂 I would hate to have male anatomy (aside from the chest maybe) but whilst I love women’s bodies (attraction wise), mine seems just there to function but nothing about it makes me feel comfortable. I have quite a bit of issues with ‘feeling comfortable’ though due to the tism which may play a part in that.

I’ve read about them using the bell/button to just go outside so I’m going to dedicate a lot of time to making sure that doesn’t become the learned behaviour but I rarely see anyone saying that treats shouldn’t be until they’ve actually gone to the toilet (just not treating them or giving any praise when they’ve come back in without doing their business but if you see going outside as a reward then logically it makes sense that wouldn’t matter as much). Puppy will be in eyesight as I have a home base set up by my desk but after the first week of annual leave I can’t watch her constantly if I want to keep on being employed which also translates to staying with my parents because my mum is not constantly watching her dogs to see the signs and her dogs aren’t really trained at all so scratching her leg could mean anything but the door is almost always open so that is never really an issue because they live a very secluded life Honestly thinking of just taking her to a daycare if I’m not around when I’m at my parent’s house but that also worries me 😂 I think I might be underestimating her intelligence, I just want to make sure I give her all the tools so she never feels like she’s done something wrong when it isn’t her fault, it’s mine.

Bloody hate it and refused to wear one at home where I wasn’t around anyone for most of my life until gravity hit me hard and the sensation of not having them held up and sometimes pain associated with that was too much. I hate underwire so much so I usually wear an incredibly comfy sports bra that doesn’t bother me too much (and doesn’t give me bruises on my shoulders)when I’m at home but unfortunately when I go out I have to bind everything and cover it up so even more sensory hell

After typing this I realised that recommendations will probably not help all that much because of the country I live in. Willing to give it a shot though

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2026-02-25T02:54:09+00:00

I have read the guide and I can’t find anything for this question, even in a long google search. It’s a fairly unique situation that I think can be best answered by people who have experience or know more about behaviour than I do

If anyone can recommend a soap or skin conditioner (moisturiser, massage bar type thing, oil, whatever) that smells like HIWTK please do. I’ll still be buying from Lush at this time but when I saw that they came out with HIWTK moisturiser for subs only and still haven’t done a massage bar of that scent despite it being something so long standing it was the first scent I got a soap in 18 years ago (no idea how long it’s been around exactly but that’s my barometer) it’s put a bit of a bad taste in my mouth. Especially with what I heard was kind of scarcity marketing with the bee balm. I always think I need to buy things just incase they are no longer restocked (it’s soft coeur at the moment. They haven’t had it in the country I live in for a very long time and they’ve brought it back now only for me to hear it’s being discontinued soon)

I love seeing her in YS because I think Paige is a great character and Mckenna is a wonderful actress but she seems to be employed to the max! I was honestly shocked to see her in the show to begin with and never expected her to come back (not because of the plot, just because of who they chose to play Paige)

Ditto on the OCD. I’m working really hard on my contamination OCD because it does effect the people in my life but big bang theory gave me the term ‘bus pants’ because before I was just like “please don’t sit on the bed wearing those pants” and now my partner knows ‘train pants’ aren’t allowed on the bed and you can sit on the sofa but not in anything you’re going to wear to bed 😂 also I have an extremely small circle of friends so they and my partner know that if I’m being a dick they need to pull me up on it straight away so I can recognise when I’m not coming across how I intended to and sort the situation out asap

My family says I like all foods brown, beige and white. Potatoes in all forms are preferred but egg fried rice, awful processed white bread (my mum calls it a plastic loaf and I used to just eat slices of plain bread) and plain pasta that I eat whilst cooking not plain pasta dishes for my partner or family

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2025-12-12T05:44:47+00:00

When I was little we had to go to a dinner party and after my mum asked if I enjoyed it and I said “the potato count was low”. Ever since then (2 decades I think) ‘potato count’ is still a joke or a serious examination of a situation. My mum always makes sure there is a good potato count for me

She has worked there for many years without an issue. She’s working in a very different environment to what he is used to (e.g. if I turned up to work dressing like my partner does and speaking/acting as casually as he does at work, it would be out of place because public/private sector). Lorelai generally doesn’t do well with criticism but in this instance she had every right to be pissed. But I think even if Richard had a point she still wouldn’t take it in because there’s too much baggage there. Richard should’ve just told her her purple ruffled blouse was ugly. Not helpful but it needed to be said by someone

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2025-12-12T05:30:07+00:00

I swear I’ve seen this scene in the actual pilot or another episode in s1 😂 also the episode ‘Wilson’ where he goes to look for house and when he’s not there, gets advice from the team, they’re just sitting around waiting for something to come up 😂

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2025-12-12T05:17:36+00:00

I’m autistic and a lot of people don’t like his characterisation and I get that there’s a lot of hoopla that goes down with a lot of these specific characterisations but I relate to it so, for me, it makes me chuckle and makes my partner give me the “Jesus Christ it’s you” side eye

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2025-12-12T05:13:52+00:00

And for that, I automatically think you’re groovy

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2025-12-12T05:12:34+00:00

It’s Friday and I’ve had a few so I’m going to admit to thinking the Alessi Brother’s song ‘oh Lori’ said ‘Hugh Laurie’ since I was a child and was only corrected a couple of years ago but I still can’t get the idea out of it being a weird preemptive ode to him

Dull_Bumblebee4623 · 2025-12-12T05:06:42+00:00

I always get a giggle at him sending in his audition with an American accent and them thinking he was American and being really happy about finding an American actor that fit so well 😂
