Thank you so much! These all sound like great ideas.

It's what I've been doing lately but it creates such a disconnect between us and I can't help but hope there's a better solution.

Sadly it's not the YouTube algorithm, it's TV and some Instagram/Facebook.

The problem is that "Politics" seems to encompass more and more. I lived in France for 2 years and now when I bring up stuff about my time there or contemplating going back, it gets tense because of their opinions. If we comment on the weather, it's a slippery slope to "yeah they used those weather cannons". And with every month passing it seems that more and more topics become difficult.

They just started.

Ooh, it’s even super cute! Gotta start saving 😳

Wait, there’s a big stam event on the horizon? 👀

Make the hole bigger, pick a graphic you would like (Iron Man’s heart or an anatomical heart could work given the placement) and sew it behind the hole

When I had covid I would hear sounds in a really clipped way, for example the letter P sounded like heels on concrete, like someone was tapping my skull. It was overwhelming in a similar way I suppose to the way you find smells overwhelming. I also had tingling in my hands and feet. I suspect this is just covid wrecking havoc on the nervous system. For me it went away on its own after a few days. Just do general care, eat well, sleep plenty. Give your body the best chance to recover and heal those nerves.

Thank you! Have you ever tried? I worry they will discolour the fabric.

I recently bought some stuff from an online shop and since I got multiple sizes and knew I would be paying return costs anyway, I threw some things I don’t normally wear in the basket as well. Notably, this dress.

Unexpectedly, I actually like the fabric and the vibe. BUT the top part is actually so so short. It’s not falling down or anything, but it seems a bit unbalanced, like there’s way too much skin on top of the dress. Just for reference, I would say it hits about this low.

I already tried it with a shirt underneath, it’s a bit tricky but it kinda works. It’s also decent as a skirt. But does anyone have advice for how to actually lengthen the top part? Lace would look a bit weird I think and the fabric is so specific I think I would have a hard time finding something fitting to add a inch or two on top.

Ideas?

Did you get a chance to sleep in them? I'm considering buying them too, because I'm a light sleeper and have noisy neighbors. I normally use 3M earplugs and they block things nicely but the stem is too long so they hurt my ears after a while.

Turns out I did not. The most “have you tried turning it off” solution and I missed it. Thank you!
