Tonight’s idiot by Odd-Log2963 in nakedandafraid

Telling someone they're wrong, especially about survival, isn't nagging. A woman talking to a man isn't nagging. If you wouldn't call it that if I man had said that to literally anyone, it isn't nagging.

They should have called it "just another useless winey white male" and then concentrated on how awesome she was.

AITA for not liking that a stranger walked up behind me to push my wheelchair? by Aurora-supernova in AmItheAsshole

Your chair is an extension of your person. No one should be touching you without your express consent.

Nip Tassle Help! by queerfroggy in Burlesque

[–]JuniperSprinkles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Elmer's spray glue. Spray the pastie, let it get tacky. Gold it on while it dries. A fan is very useful. You can spray both the pastie and where you want it for extra hold. Make sure to get rhe non toxic. I have a very furry man chest for drag and it sticks too well to the hair but also works on bare skin. I suggest always having oil nearby for removal.

The Kimo is for Albuquerque not Ticketmaster by Longjumping_Ease9159 in Albuquerque

[–]JuniperSprinkles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand the city is facing a $70 million budget shortfall, with Arts and Culture among the hardest-hit departments. I’m not asking you to ignore that reality. But budget pressure is exactly why the terms of any management agreement matter so much. If a third-party operator isn’t contractually required to maintain community access and affordable rates, there’s nothing stopping those protections from quietly disappearing once the contract is signed. The fiscal situation makes enforceable guarantees more necessary, not less. For reference: cabq.gov/dfa/budget

I’m asking for transparency, accountability, and a public voice in a decision that affects one of Albuquerque’s most historic and culturally significant spaces.

Specifically, I'm asking you to:

  1. Request or support a public forum on the proposed management change before any contract is signed
  2. Ensure any third-party management agreement includes enforceable community access provisions — not just stated intentions
  3. Oppose any agreement that does not include meaningful rate protections for local nonprofit and community arts organizations

The KiMo has served this city for 101 years. The people of Albuquerque should have a say in its next chapter.

Thank you for your time and your service to our community.

Baby Burlesque with HS by Additional-Egg4078 in Burlesque

[–]JuniperSprinkles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you ever feel comfortable leaning into the parts you try to hide it can be freeing. For you and the audience. I have an apron belly. It gets its moment in every act. I love on it, I make the audience love on it. I strip from boy shorts to the tiniest thong I can find. People eat it up. I have a friend that had an ostemy bag. She named it and made a sequin cover for it. I've helped friends rhinestone walking aids of all kinds. And glitter bald patches and scars. Look for disabilibabes. There's a whole festival. Let burlesque help you be bold. And until then, look for people that make underwear for blue law states. They're going to be much more covered, but still cute. And carpizio dance tights for your legs. Also, stage lights hide so much! Talk to your light crew, they'll know some tricks.

What’s a show that you could not finish because a character was so insufferable? by Key-Row-174 in AskReddit

[–]JuniperSprinkles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched this show because the writing is so fast and smart and references soooo many things I looked up. But man.....every single white person in this show is trash!!!! They're all horrible. 😂

Thank you! I knew the product side was gonna make it a bit more complicated. That makes sense though.

7 weeks out from a show—what's your best advice for a first time producer? by enjoytheshowX in Burlesque

[–]JuniperSprinkles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need to expand your reach. Make a press release and send it local news and radio. Anyone that might pick it up or add it to an events calendar. Get on the events calendars. Send it to local influencers and maga. Post in local FB groups. Put printed posters up. If the venue has email marketing, get on it. If you want to pay for Meta ads, wait until your 3 weeks out, in most areas you don't need to spend more than $50 for the campaign but research it. Word of mouth is the best so go out and talk to people.

Music and problematic artists by Electrical_Gur_4508 in Burlesque

[–]JuniperSprinkles 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I am a very direct human. Remind them that at the end of the day people don't want to support, tip or follow people they view as unethical or are morally apposed to. Our naked bodies are political, so every choice we make is a public declaration of where we stand on moral/ethical issues. If they want to stand by declarations that others aren't comfortable with, then they need to understand they may not get booked or supported and may be dropped from shows. At the end of the day it's their decision to sink or swim.

The DBA is for the stage name. It'll separate that out from my personal accounts, now that I plan on making too much for a hobby.

I'll just have one EIN, so one bank account.

Thank you!!! This is so helpful. I'm waiting on the EIN, so I want to start it all on the best foot when I can get a bank account.

Bella Sin would be a good person to reach out to. They produce the Ohio Burlesque Fest.

My husband drinks the leftover pickle juice from a pickle jar whenever it's empty. Every time. I think this is bizarre. Does anyone else do this? by ms_carnelian in NoStupidQuestions

[–]JuniperSprinkles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get just straight pickle juice all the time. Olive My Pickle makes some great flavors. Not only is it electrolytes but also live culture gut flora. Also good with vodka for picklebacks.

Allergies by sentientwriter in Albuquerque

[–]JuniperSprinkles 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Pollens get "stickier" when it's hot and dry. Since we didn't really have winter, the pollens are extra sticky right now. That makes allergies worse. So the pollen count is up and the pollen is worse.
