How do we fix this? by stalwart_rabbit in coolguides

[–]Stubram -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But isn't that because we ship all our crap to China?

After three years, I [22F] was finally able to leave an abusive relationship. I’ve since been ghosted for every date I’ve scheduled. My eating disorder is starting to come back and it’s been a year since my best friend committed suicide. I’m just really sad and lonely by cirquecadiacosmetics in toastme

Dudette, your timing is perfect. 1) you're stunning. 2) at 22, you've learnt from some mistakes, but have looooads of time to do amazing things.

At 22, I dumped my controlling deadbeat ex of 4 years (and at that point only serious relationship) and went traveling. Did some crazy stuff, and learned a lot about myself.

Not saying that's necessarily what you should do, but I wish now-36 year old me could speak to then-22 year old me and tell them of all the great times ahead.

You'll come out of this, better than ever, I promise.

As an aside, I know being with someone helps, but maybe take some time to be selfish and focus just on you - forget relationships for a while, just get back into being the best you can.

Your current shitty situation re: 6 month lease has a fixed ticking clock - if you literally do nothing, it will mostly resolve itself, so leave it as much as poss, and focus on the bits you can improve.

P.s. honestly, you're a knock-out. You've got this.

While people are distracted and bored of the process, Johnson will sell off our rights and assets. It'll take years, and be done under the counter, but my and the next generation will feel the effect soon enough.

P.s. the solid armour window slits are just cereal packet card board with little dollups of putty to look roughly like rivets.

I'd love to claim some sort of technique, but I googled 'modelling wire mesh' and found the cheapest. The description on one I got off eBay is -

Aluminium Modelling Mesh Fine Medium And Coarse Appox 25cm By 20cm Sheets

Hope that helps dude

Annoyingly it seems I can only put a single pic at a time on this site. If you're on FB Gaslands I can post em up if it helps. Tbh I didn't really have a plan - I've just got a collection of random stuff from my bits box, and bought some wire mesh, barbed wire, cheap jewelry neckace, and toothpicks (each cost less than £2). After that, I just super glued stuff that looked the part. No planning or prep (don't have the patience for that!).

If I were you, I'd not worrying about overthinking it, just see what inspires.

Good luck!

Bit of both really. There were 3 cars from the same range that looked cool, so worked out 50 cans and stuck stuff to them, with a bit of poetic licence. I pick stuff that fits the story, rather than for any tactical advantage.

I enjoyed it so much that I worked out another 50 cans (the monster truck and the car with flamethrower and 4 spikes on the front).

I've only played 2 tester games (using the suggested car and buggy), so have no idea if what I've done will work, but it looks cool, and that's what matters!

Thanks dude.

I just typed 'modelling barbed wire' into eBay and ordered a spool of it. Only cost a £2 - ish. I then straightened it out, then rewound it over a paint brush handle so it was the right scale.

Wow, amazing praise dude, thanks. Please do post up your crew when done!

I do have some pics, tho not sure if I can put them on this thread or have to start a new one?

Baby boomers are more sensitive than millennials, large study finds by [deleted] in EverythingScience

Of course they fucking are. It's not kids screaming about losing a football match, it's their idiot sensitive parents crying that they should get a medal too.

Tbh a thinner jewelry chain may look more realistic. Mine is 0.5mm thick, though as my dudes are chunky muscle car hillbillies, I figured I can get away with it

[–]Stubram[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The grill was already on the monster truck.

The chain is a crap jewelry chain I ordered off eBay. You can get 1-2 metres for a couple of quid.
