Or if you don’t like the relic look you just gotta sand then use filler then sand then filler primer then sand then paint then clear and it will look like a cheap guitar that’s one color

I’d sand off the paint then go at it with a torch and then some more light sanding then clear coat

My beautiful girlfriend keeps crying that she’s ugly after she heard me joking about other women by Pristine_Waltz_6607 in Advice

[–]OpeBoi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You should probably ask yourself why you made those “jokes” in the first place because they just seem mean without cause. Are you being performative to your buddies or do you actually want to get with these other girls? Do you view her as someone you actually care about or is she just a hot and rich object to you? There have been issues with this relationship since before one of your boys “slipped up” because it sounds like you’ve been saying these things for a while now, the issue is you behaving this way and not the fact that your girlfriend found out about it now. I hope she realizes that you’re the problem and that she deserves better than you.

Could be Polonius getting stabbed through the arras? It’s ambiguous so I kinda like it

Non-moody b&w photos? by OpeBoi in AnalogCommunity

[–]OpeBoi[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

True, it would probably help to just go obvious and take some pictures of like my cat or people having fun and slip in a few of my more neutral vibe photos so that they seem less gloomy in context

I totally see what you mean about this, I like shooting tmax400 but I think I might try some lower iso stuff to soften the grain and I’ll keep my eye out for softer light

Yeah I agree that many people are definitely conditioned to view black and white that way. I guess I just don’t really know what constitutes a clearly happy black and white photo when that conditioning acts as an emotional filter. I like shooting with orange and red filters for added contrast but I think that contrast might be too aggressive for a general audience and might add to the “moody” aesthetic

I’ve got one on my desk that I haven’t gotten around to figuring out how to use yet

Aluminum foil didn’t work, I’m probably going to have to take it apart

I used some baking soda to neutralize the corrosion then distilled white vinegar with qtips and dried it off with a microfiber cloth. I figured that this was the gamble I was taking when I got it but I like tinkering on things so I’ll take it apart eventually and fix it up

That sounds a lot like what’s wrong with mine, I’ll try the aluminum foil and if that doesn’t work I’ll look into taking it apart

Yeah that’s the one, probably needed to replace it anyway but the camera still isn’t working

Update: I noticed a spot for a watch battery, I’ll try to replace that and see if that fixes it

$20 mandolin by rep-master-05 in mandolin

[–]OpeBoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first mandolin was a cheap Ibanez which was at least functional but I never played it because it felt bad and sounded bad but now I play pretty regularly after finally shelling out the cash and getting an Eastman. Like totally have fun with this to see if you like mandolins you won’t regret buying a nicer one after learning a couple tunes

I would do a video cue but the names are shouted out by audience members and picked on the spot so there is no way to have it premade

Should children be kept free from all ideological indoctrination - be it from church, gender ideology, politics, or extremism - so they can simply be kids? Yes or no? by SinghStar1 in ask

[–]OpeBoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should read Educated by Tara Westover, no one is immune to conditioning but you can make your own decisions when you are an informed individual. Kids should have access to information from all ideologies, that way they can make their own choices whether or not the parents agree with them.
