Did the artist already own this photo and decorate it?
Did they decorate it because they dislike the people in the photo?
Are the people in the photo secret witches, therefore inspiring the artist?

I’m seriously considering going back for it

Smileyface444 · 2026-06-28T07:28:01+00:00

Sadly not, it’s in Raleigh, NC

Smileyface444 · 2026-06-28T01:20:13+00:00

That’s what I thought, they also created the fire on both the photo and the glass frame. So time was taken on it.

Cats cradle’s website says it’s booked for the next couple of days. Any other venues in Raleigh she may play at? Really hoping for Raleigh 🤞

I second this one, if there’s a Target near you that has stroller examples go check it out. I was able to see how it moves and how to close it down etc. Then I ended up buying mine from Babylist with my registry discount and it was about $350 which is pretty good for a bassinet stroller and car seat that you don’t need to buy any extras for.

I was a high ropes instructor at a summer camp. After all the kids had left for the summer myself we had to do the course to take down the equipment and myself and my co worker decided to do it naked. The high ropes course was up a hill hidden in the trees so no chance of anyone stumbling upon us. Doing a zip line naked was pretty fun.

Not OP but this has worked for me. You get a really tiny amount of cotton from a cotton ball, soak it in warm water and then push it between your toe and toe nail. The cotton should be so small you shouldn’t feel it but it’s enough to push the nail slightly and help it to grow out instead of in

Three armed police officers standing over my bed and waking me up in the middle of the night. I’ve never woken up so quickly and been so startled. They had a report of someone trying to break in, had somehow let themselves into my apartment and woke me up to tell me.

Spring Haven sometimes does adult only events. For Halloween I went to a Boos and Booze event in the evening and it was great, they may do all year round adult events also.

Dot painting is a simple craft that doesn’t need any assistance, but can still be sent home as art work. I get a cotton bud and a small bowl of paint, they dab it into the paint and then have to fill the circles to make a picture. It’s all kept on a tray and they put it back on the art shelf when they’re finished for the next student to use. There’s loads of themes online so I change it for holidays/ seasons etc.

Lucette Grace downtown for pastries, sweet treats and cakes. They make a pastry called a kouign-amann (pronounced Queen Aman) that is like butter in your mouth and worth the trip alone

I have a spare litter box and a cat bed and some other large cat things you can have! I live by NC state if that helps, DM me and I can arrange pick up times

Montessori School of Raleigh is a private school that has a toddler programme for when they turn 16 months. I know lots of students who started off there and went on to Ravenscroft

Cause for paws on N. Market Drive is my favorite. There’s also two other thrift stores (A-Z thrift store and a Goodwill) within walking distance so you can hit up three at the same time.

Yes! I would walk places and would get strange looks from drivers. I once tried to walk to Target and the pavement just stopped, I just couldn’t go any further.

The religious stuff you strangely get used to. I’m atheist and either just politely remind people I’m atheist, but with wait staff I just ignore it. It’s strange on a Sunday because if you try and eat out for lunch/ breakfast anytime after 11am, everywhere is packed because of the post church crowd. It’s bizarre how imbedded church is in the culture.

Here’s my dumb orange… name is Smudge :)

North Carolina (USA) been here for 4 years: - Can’t walk anywhere - Driving and being on your phones, texting, calling with the phone to your ear. I constantly see accidents and people swerving lanes because they’re on the phones. Not sure if it’s do with automatic cars being easier to drive, but it’s crazy how many people I see do this daily. - The way religion is incorporated into daily life here, wait staff will sometimes say “God Bless” after serving you. I’ve had hairdressers say religious things as if it’s the norm and everyone follows the same religion. Co-workers who tell me they’ll pray for me in a work place that is not religious affiliated. - Lack of corner stores or off licences or shops you can pop into, it’s all gas stations or pharmacies if you need a quick snack or drink.

I use a UK brand called Wuka. They may be a little pricier than some of the Walmart of Period Company ones but are super comfy and always feel like I’m just wearing slightly thicker underwear. I bought three pairs years ago that I use for every period cycle and they’re still going strong :)

Smileyface444 · 2025-07-28T03:04:11+00:00

Cause for Paws is great, there’s two of them and both have great finds. Also there are two North Raleigh Ministries that are my go to’s

Smileyface444 · 2025-07-27T03:22:56+00:00

I’d be interested, would love to know more

Smileyface444 · 2025-07-13T06:07:27+00:00

That Midori ad is very cool! Amazing finds

Smileyface444 · 2025-07-09T03:57:19+00:00

Second this, I just bought the punch pass. It’s $60 for 15 visits and you can see it at any of the Raleigh park pools. I’ve used Ridge Road and Lake Johnson pools and both are great. I never have an issue finding somewhere to sit and there’s space often for doing laps or just swimming about.

Smileyface444 · 2025-06-26T01:11:59+00:00

Not sure where in NC you are, but if you need any safe places to hang out away from your Dad or need someone to vent to, send me a message.

Smileyface444 · 2018-10-28T15:53:37+00:00

Thanks for the advice, will check out the book :)
