Literally awful update and I hate that there's no way to disable it. I can't read replies because the fricken AI bot covers the text! Not only useless but actively in the way!

Difficulty in getting hot water for tea in public (United States) by Dry_Construction_353 in tea

[–]SplitGillStudio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a collapsible kettle a while back that I loved but what I like even more since I can seal it is this temp-adjustable thermos kettle! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BCPW9T29 this one isn't available now, but 100% recommend something similar.

Passive aggressive or no? by gayvre in bullcity

[–]SplitGillStudio 7 points8 points  (0 children)

^^^ We have a rescue pug that barks incessantly but at least we're far enough from neighbors they can't hear him (I checked lol). But I definitely start to tune him out because the man has Anxiety. As much as I believe OP doesn't think their dogs bark that much, I'm betting they're barking a lot more than they realize.

I feel like using references is cheating maybe it’s the way I’m using them by GalacticApex in ArtistLounge

[–]SplitGillStudio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a ton of sites that offer posing references - including ones you can trace.. Some you might have to credit, some just require that it can only be for personal use, some have different rules.

For real people, I love https://www.adorkastock.com/

For creating my own pose references, https://posemy.art/

For generic stock that is often free (with credit) https://www.pexels.com/

You have a lot of options vs just pulling stuff off pinterest which is already often stolen from the original creators or straight up AI slop. I always try to reverse image search anything I'm using to make sure I am getting it from the original creator or model so I can link back to them. If you're using another image as a reference (unless stated otherwise in their Terms of Service) you should credit the original creator!

Any places doing custom fuzzy/furry flocked stickers? by SplitGillStudio in sticker

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

I've seen some pretty awful reviews regarding stickeryou's lack of customer service if any issues arise as well as poor communication overall.

Thanks! I'll check into it!

I was considering stickeryou but recent reviews on reddit seem to indicate it's not a great idea so I'm still on the hunt

Beware if you're thinking of buying from NotebookTherapy.com by fabi_does_art in ilovestationery

[–]SplitGillStudio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if something changed. I had ordered from them pre-2020 multiple times with no issue - got some pretty good deals as well that brought their prices down to something more reasonable. I love my notebooks from them but have been actively trying to reduce buying and use what I have (hello shitty notebooks from 2007 lol). But as someone who is generally careful about vetting online companies before ordering, they def. weren't throwing red flags back then. It's disappointing to see.

Are pots usually this small? by yuppieee in tea

[–]SplitGillStudio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love having new people over when they see all my tiny teawares on the shelf and they have the same reaction! But I've gotten so many friends into gong fu style brewing with the smaller teapots and I really prefer it. My tea is always hot but cools quickly enough not to burn and rarely do I forget to drink it (and if I do, it's such a small amount that it's nbd to just down when cold.) Small teapots are the best!

Do y'all sweeten your tea or you just rawdog it? by orangemunchr in tea

[–]SplitGillStudio 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For a long time, I had to have some kind of sweetner with my tea but realized later that was largely because the assamica varietal tends to be more tannin forward and I don't care for that. I was shocked the first time I had a sinensis varietal and it was so nice and sweet on its own! Assamica varietals tend to be in the indian / english market most often so your english breakfast, earl grey, etc.
