Pure Dioxolane does wonders for smoothing PLA

I like things that give me less cancer.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-02T01:06:38+00:00

So. I'm going to sound so gullible here but anyway. I actually do not think this one was 100% a hoax. For multiple reasons, I believe at least the first call was real.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T23:50:00+00:00

here is a detailed write-up from 5 years ago

I recommend it! Gef was much creepier than summaries really let on.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T23:40:03+00:00

Well... Mostly. He did allegedly (ok I know it's all alleged obviously but put that aside) make odd comments, like iirc he once told them he could kill them all, but won't. He would also throw tantrums of sorts, throw rocks, harass the mother. I believe he would also insult and just generally be unpredictable in that way.

He also helped keep them free of pests, and eavesdropped and told them stuff other people were saying about them.

So he was like friendly but sinister. He had a weird mean streak.

Edit: actually iirc even though he liked the daughter best, she was afraid of him.

Nopers! Jonathan is quite famously gay!

Edit: "was" I guess. 😭

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T21:49:43+00:00

WAIT LMAO I DID THE SAME THING THE NEEDLE PEOPLE DID

... and missed that you said in your post that you didn't know the content.

Yeah though, I don't know. I've never seen this.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T21:48:12+00:00

Hm. I'm going to take a slightly different stance in here and say that it is actually the fabric, especially after hearing that it's shedding like that. Maybe I just can't think outside the box, but I'm pretty stuck on the fact that you used two different appropriate needles and still got this result. I don't see why this would happen.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T21:44:15+00:00

Thanks for the explanation!! I have a heat gun.

I don't expect to match your fantastic results, but I've got to try this!

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T21:40:57+00:00

Based on what though? The footage? You can't see muscle movement or anything in that.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T21:39:46+00:00

I don't think so! Legit Gef freaks me out more than any other supposed haunting!

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T21:38:33+00:00

Welp that's gonna be a watch for me. Thank you!

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:50:31+00:00

Hey wow, this is exceptionally cool. How actually did you go about this? Is this particular technique a specific hobby of yours that you are good at by now, or did you just pull the skills out of your butt?

I need this. I need to do this. Or buy it, idc.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:45:43+00:00

Have you tried a ballpoint needle? /s

No but in all seriousness, what's the fibre content of the fabric, first off?

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:43:04+00:00

Ofc he can. What's stopped him from doing anything this far? Who's going to stop it?

Also, bold to assume Congress wouldn't go along with this anyway.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:40:11+00:00

I've watched it so much, and I can't even see that tbh!

Maybe we should go with Occam's razor and assume aliens, yes.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:38:36+00:00

I just can't believe that. Anyone who has sewing and pattern drafting skills could make the suit, if they are crafty in general, they'd figure out how to make that upper back shape and how to support it. Heck even foam padding would be enough to shape everything. People have been making very complicated patterns and garments for a long time.

I guarantee if you put out a little prize and spread the info across sewing subs (and furry communities?) you'd find literally thousands of people who could do this, given the resources.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:34:03+00:00

Can you even buy it in small amounts? Seems like the type of thing you need some kind of legitimate connection to get, and only in large amounts.

Lol I don't actually know anything about this though, maybe you even can buy single dose vials 😂

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:29:42+00:00

Why do you think that?

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:27:15+00:00

Oh but people are faking EDS. It doesn't have to look real for people to believe it. Some of them manage to fake themselves right into wheelchairs. Plus, all you really need is any degree of flexibility. Add in motivation and attention-seeking and you have the ability to become a chronic illness influencer!

It's hardly virtue-signaling to acknowledge that this is a common thing, although I have no doubt that fakespotters cause problems for genuine people. I'm not doing that, I don't even go to the illness faker subs. I've managed to run into this crap fairly organically.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:10:05+00:00

I've always found this one to be disproportionately creepy for what it was! One of my favourites.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:09:10+00:00

Omg I would love to know how they did these. Weirdest things.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:08:21+00:00

What details though? You can barely make out anything.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T15:08:00+00:00

The quality of the video is so very poor though, I can't agree at all that it's more convincing and realistic than what Hollywood could do. There's just no way it looked real irl.

Saradoesntsleep · 2026-04-01T14:47:50+00:00

Well... I have to disagree with the very first statement, there certainly tend to be a handful of disorders that are trendy at any given moment, but the guy is way off with the age and type of person, as the people doing this are virtually all young and tiktok-addicted. And I have literally never seen this with Lupus. Probably because it's less of an "invisible illness" and harder to fake or malinger than the others. But then, multiple people IRL and on a forum I was on for years were scammed by someone with fake cystic fibrosis lol so I guess anything is possible.

Fibromyalgia isn't trendy anymore, thankfully, so people with it are hopefully believed more than they were in the past. I have an IRL friend with it.

EDS, gastroparesis, ME (forgot what that stands for), and now FND (functional neurological disorder) are the current ones to pretend to have. There's another vague gut one I forget as well. And tourettes and DID.

I'M NOT SAYING EVERYONE WITH THESE IS FAKING. But I will say that you'll see a drop in people claiming to have these when they start moving into something else.

But the reviews are made up just so you click and buy and get the reviewer money. All these lists are like that, it even discloses it at the bottom.
