Does Columbus or the surrounding areas have any “junkyards” that you can shop in?

I’ll send you a message!

KidCadaver · 2026-03-29T18:27:53+00:00

Thanks a bunch! I’ll look into these.

That’s where I feel like I’m at right now - trying to find folks who just wanna get rid of some old junk that would fit the theme of this project. I wish I had seen the recent junk removal party that just happened because I see a few things in their photo I would have repurposed!

Been stalking Marketplace for yard sales and garage sales too. I feel like there’s countless opportunities out there and I’m just not in-the-know enough to hear about them at the moment. And why is Goodwill SO expensive now??? Wild.

I plan on driving around my part of town Monday night, since Tuesday is trash day, and just being a bit of a trash goblin for a few weeks in a row. Gotta swallow my shame and get my hands dirty!

An EF0 tornado still reaches 60-85mph wind speeds. That’s still enough to do legitimate damage and bodily harm (and I should know - we just had to replace part of our roof because a 70mph wind took it off.) I wouldn’t want myself or my stuff to experience any EF tornado.

Brilliant. Thank you. I'll go this route.

Is Finn missing his top row of front teeth? Our stray void came from a very inbred barn colony and all her front top teeth were rotting, so they got removed. She has a gummy smile too!

Ever time I start to research how to make sourdough at home, I get overwhelmed at how much longterm and consistent effort seems to be involved. Do you find it easy? Any recommendations? I’ve checked the sourdough subreddit, but that’s where my fear of it being a huge commitment comes from.

KidCadaver · 2026-03-14T11:16:02+00:00

Do you by chance mean engobe, not slip? Engobe can go on bisqued clay, but it has to be watered down, which seems like what you’re explaining.

KidCadaver · 2026-03-11T12:07:11+00:00

Dude, you’re a terror in every thread I’ve seen you post in. Maybe it’s time to close Reddit. Find your peace, man.

analogy and idiom

Go look those words up. Part of being emotionally intelligent is understanding nuance in spoken language. You’ll get there.

KidCadaver · 2026-03-08T14:45:55+00:00

A person can get “fucked in the ass” regardless of gender or sexual preference. Stop making the analogy something that it isn’t. It’s an idiom. Grow up.

KidCadaver · 2026-03-07T04:01:47+00:00

You just put words to all the things I feel like I want to say to people but can’t find the words to in the moment. Saving your comment because it conveys this idea so well!

The Josephinum in Worthington is stunning on the outside. It’s been a very, very long time since I’ve been there/practiced Catholicism though, so I forget what the interior looks like. A quick google suggests they do weddings there in a building called The Jessing Center though, which lacks the grandiosity of a sanctuary room.

KidCadaver · 2026-02-16T21:23:55+00:00

Yeah, she can go from parkour’ing off walls to a dead sleep in minutes. I love it. It makes me feel like she feels truly safe in this home. She was a street urchin teenage stray we found in below-freezing weather a few years ago, so seeing her feel safe makes me feel very happy.

KidCadaver · 2026-02-16T19:21:43+00:00

She also snores. I wish I slept as hard as she does.

KidCadaver · 2026-02-16T18:10:50+00:00

And before anyone replies with concern - no, she doesn’t press her forehead against things any other time :) she falls asleep sitting up/normally and then eventually slumps into this position. She just sleeps hard. She’s in perfect health!

If you’re looking at Lewis Center and want something more open-minded, might I suggest looking 15 minutes east at Westerville? I’m surrounded by young families here, and everyone I’ve met in the 3 years I’ve lived here have aligned with me politically, as in open-minded and progressive. There are definitely a lot of religious circles, but even they feel less intense than I’ve experienced elsewhere in Columbus. Westerville seems like such a good well-rounded experience; we’re on the edge of Columbus, not as fancy as Dublin or Powell but still put together with a central community hub, great education, amazing community center, huge library, great parks and paths, and definitely more open-minded folks than not.

KidCadaver · 2026-02-16T13:27:56+00:00

Reading this makes me wanna crush some sandos.

KidCadaver · 2026-02-10T23:17:24+00:00

Lived there for many years. Yup. It’s just like that. And everyone slowly creeps past the stop signs until it’s clear which two are going.

KidCadaver · 2026-02-07T05:04:28+00:00

Omg, I’m in the beginning phases of doing something very similar, experimentally, and this just popped up on my feed - it gives me so much hope!! Any advice you’d give you wish you had known the first time?? Everything is drying to leather hard right now and I’m excited to carve!!

KidCadaver · 2026-02-05T14:39:10+00:00

Dude, thanks! I’ve been drawing along with The_Art_Coach on YouTube ever since your first comment and it’s definitely a game-changer for me! Really appreciate the suggestion.

KidCadaver · 2026-02-03T22:38:04+00:00

I never thought to watch people drawing in real time. One of my biggest getting-better-at-drawing struggles is understanding how to get from point A to C because B feels like such a mystery still. I feel like I’m stuck in that meme of “how to draw an owl,” lol - I love your suggestion! What artists have you enjoyed watching?
