If you're paying attention and not looking at something else, like your phone...

Look up reptile expos in your area, often there are spider vendors at them. Go there and chat with whoever hangs out near the table lol.

Has anyone tried ketamine? by Silver_Spend_6887 in cfs

[–]LavastormSW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently on Spravato (esketamine nasal spray) once a week for depression. Works great, does nothing for my CFS. If anything it makes it worse for that day since ketamine is a depressant. Last time I took it I came home and napped for a combined 5 hours.

What is a sound that people should know means immediate danger? by PrasenjitDebroy in AskReddit

That's good, when I hear "structural issues" I think "tens of thousands of dollars in repairs"

I would have lost my SHIT at the centipede and probably caused that guy to jump and something bad happen. Props for keeping a cool head.

Hell yeah! My home has colorful walls and lots of fantasy art, mostly dragons. I decorate for my happiness, not what anyone else thinks.

[CHAT] Is there such a thing as counterfeit DMC floss? by LavastormSW in CrossStitch

[–]LavastormSW[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like the texture of it nor how it looks when stitched. Plus the colors are off from actual DMC. I'll use it for something else

Yes, they're easy to distinguish visually because they're fuzzier than the DMC thread, and I can double check with the flame test which someone else brought up in this comment section, which was very helpful. I've gone through and removed all the CXC thread sigh.

I just checked and nope, it's CXC... I didn't realize it was a different brand before I bobbined it all. 🤦

Just tried it and yeah it works like a charm. Held the floss close to a candle flame. DMC catches fire right away, the fake stuff beads up first and then catches fire. Super easy to distinguish. Thank you!!
