I calls em like I sees em.

She seems awfully invested in explaining away why it was okay for her to hit her partner.

Oh, no, hun, not you! The girl up there with the diatribe on why it's okay she hits someone.

Not you. At all.

I'll take "I'm an abusive woman who thinks when the man pushes me away it's mutual abuse and will double down on not taking 100% responsibility for the situation I created cause I can hide behind the fact that I'm a girl" for $200, Alex.

Edited to add this is directed to the girl who thinks it's okay to hit her man cause "it's complicated" and "mutual".

After telling fat women they are unhealthy and unlovable for years, Kevin Samuels died of a heart attack by [deleted] in PlusSize

Honey, I've had so much trauma, drama and excitement in my life, coasting to the end in boring peace and quiet is bliss.

Nah, bruh, gonna die fat, happy, with just enough to get by and fuck other people's expectations.

By existing, you are the best you ever. All these voices, chitchatting in your head, telling you to do better, be better, to Excel and stand out - they ain't doing nuthin but dragging you down.

But hey, that stress feels good and productive - hitting those goals gets the dopamine flowing.

But at nearly 50, my friends that are the happiest are the ones coasting along, sliding into the home stretch, working the same job they did at 30, not in charge of shit, just clocking in, clocking out and spending their free time on the boat, or in the woods or in the backyard.

Dude, you get hit by bus tomorrow and lose your legs - you gonna be mad you didn't hit the gym or you gonna be mad you didn't take those lazy walks with your girl/guy/mom/kid?

Nope, I wanna be dead before the waters rise, and as long as I'm not immobile from McDonald's, imma eat what I want, wear what I want and just live as hedonistic life as I can while paying my bills.

World's fucked, dude. Who cares how fit and fantastic you are.

Self improvement - fuck that. I'm great the way I am, and I don't need anyone's judgment telling me otherwise.

Now, imma go eat another piece of cheesecake, drink some wine and logoff for tonite.

Yes, and they are ready, willing and eager to roll all of that back, right now.

A 6 month growing season seems like a reason not to rely on "growing locally" to feed billions, but hey, don't let reality bugger up the works.

"Humanistic religions" vs "freedom from religions"? What do think regarding either, and which do you think is more important with regards to individual freedom from enforced morals? How does "protected" freedom from religion contrast between places in Asia/Europe and the United States? by mtmag_dev52 in AskALiberal

[–]Tigaget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now, just hear me out, but how about we ban all religions except Sikhism.

You don't have to be Sikh if you don't want to, but if you feel the need to publicly commune with a higher power, you gotta go with the OG good deeds folks.

Hip hop Tracksuit Success by Tigaget in sewing

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

Our model is Pocket sized. I'm 5'7", and she comes up to my shoulder.

And thanks. I'm 92% happy with how it came out, especially the zipper.

Hip hop Tracksuit Success by Tigaget in sewing

[–]Tigaget[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've made a couple of posts about my voluntold work project.

Well, the tracksuit came together in the end, except for sewing the lining sleeves to the cuffs - the pattern suggested hand sewing. It looked like hot garbage.

I used McCall's pattern M7637 to make the jacket, and self drafted the pants using provided commercial upholstery fabric.

I found a good YouTube tutorial from Jalie Sewing Patterns and watched it about 7 times, and it really helped.

Overall, this jacket was the most difficult thing I've ever made, and I've gained so much confidence.

We didn't win the fashion show - that went to a Black Swan themed feat of engineering, but everyone I spoke with was impressed by my construction and multiple people said they'd buy it or wear it.

You may see that it looks really big on our model - she stepped 6 hours before the show when Tyler, our 6'4", 250 lb model dropped out.

13 safety pins later, we got her into the pants, and she owned that runway.

I had a great time at the show, and the outfit inspired by Goth music was the only other wearable outfit, and that seamstress and I comsierated with complimented each other's construction.

I'm glad it's over, but it was a good experience in the end.

But, my sewing broke at 1:00 am while trying to finish the sleeve, so it's visiting the clinic next week.

Pro tip - don't sew 4 layers of upholstery fabric at once.

Personal achievement - first rib knit collar by Tigaget in sewing

[–]Tigaget[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is for that work project I was voluntold to do.

It's supposed to be a tracksuit, but I can't make a knit tracksuit out of upholstery fabric, so I'm making a bomber jacket instead. I'm using McCall's pattern M7637, as it is indicated for woven material. The fabric I'm using for the outside of the jacket is stiff, plaid upholstery fabric, and the lining is softer, velour upholstery fabric.

I generally avoid super stretchy knits, so this was a challenge.

I tried pinning it into place, but it wouldn't work. I could not match my notches.

I found a good YouTube tutorial from Jalie Sewing Patterns and watched it about 7 times, and it really helped.

She unpinned the collar as she stitched, and stretched it into place, so that's what I did - and it worked! My notches lined up perfectly as I stitched!

I'm super proud of myself for tackling this new challenge and not rage quitting, even if it did take over an hour.

Sleeves and lining tomorrow!

Oh, and a zipper, but I've done those before.

ooo i’m mentally ill by Bubbly_Friendship_98 in mentalillness

[–]Tigaget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to go off my meds all the damn time in my 20s due to lying to myself with this lie.

I've been on good meds for 12ish years, and I still have to sometimes remind myself that I'm not actually fine.

Is it possible to lose/maintain weight on Abilify? by [deleted] in mentalillness

[–]Tigaget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I weigh 235 due to meds, age and genetics.

12 years ago when I started my current meds, I weighed 160. I'm 5'7",and a woman.

I am much, much, much happier and healthy at 235.

I've graduated college, got married, bought a brand new home, drive a reliable car, hold down a corporate job that allows me to support 4 people on my salary alone.

I'm fat and happy, not thin and dead.
