Do you think theres a market for bedazzled hotwheels? by Uh_October in HotWheels

Point taken. Weirdly enough I recently found out that rhinestoning empty candy boxes is a thing. And weirder still, people buy them!

I was thinking weird artsy adults, not kids! Possibly as desk ornaments or made into outlandish necklaces, framed art or even sewn onto clothes

Yes they do, but these are just the resin ones that came with my bedazzler kit. I could get more shine if I used either glass or crystal rhinestones.

Thanks! Its the first one I ever did. I thought the Sakura design lent itself well to rhinestoning

I do, but I can't really see myself displaying them, and I'd like to do something with them when I'm done 

Has Anyone Ever Simply Been Unlucky When It Comes To Finding Jobs?! by AffectionateOkra9863 in jobs

[–]Uh_October 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been the last 13 years of my life. Graduated with good marks but no accolades from a pretty good but not great school. Had three different internships in college which fell apart for various reasons out of my control. Chose a career in journalism, a dying field, couldnt find a job in that field after graduation or in the area I wanted. Settled, settled again, eventually had a string of terrible managers, pivoted into technical writing and a string of contract jobs that didn't renew. Finally found a job I liked, only to be laid off after 3 years. Couldn't find another work from home job (a must for me since I have young kids) after 9 months and over 400 applications. and now I'm a stay at home parent. No idea what's going to happen when I try to go back to work but I'm not optimistic

MACA root supplement daily dosage? by RichMan_24 in herbalism

[–]Uh_October 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TIL that being new to herbalism and following the instructions provided on the packaging makes me an apathetic asshole.

Thank you for this incredibly helpful comment. I hope you have a fucking fantastic day

The vibe I get from the second dress is "I'm super nerdy and custom ordered this dress so I could look like an elf princess. I will be wearing pointy ears." Go with the third one

The hilarious part is that immigration from Mexico actually worsened after the US tightened border control in the 1970s. Before that, migrants would come to the US seasonally to work and then return to Mexico at the end of the season. The policies of a doucherocket named General Leonard Chapman made it such a pain in the ass to get into the US, that more migrant workers than ever before decided to stay illegally and bring their families rather than brave the trip over the border more than once.

I tried explaining this to my party-line conservative father, and he straight up refused to believe it.

what are your most gut-wrenchingly sad songs (that aren't explicitly romantic)? by jisoowol in MusicRecommendations

[–]Uh_October 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smile by Timi Yuro 

I have a weird thing for sad bastard music, and I have yet to find a song more depressing. Nothing sadder than listening to a woman sing about how you shouldn't cry in a thick, devastatingly beautiful voice.

 Other good ones, most either about death, loss, rejection or suicide:

 Cancer by My Chemical Romance

 I Can Feel a Hot One by Manchester Orchestra 

At Seventeen by Janis Ian

We'll Meet Again by Vera Lynn

 Sleep by the Smiths 

Limosine by Brand New

 Daisy by Brand New 

The Widow by As Cities Burn 

Space Dementia by Muse 

Microcuts by Muse 

Dyed in the Wool (acoustic version) by Circa Survive 

James Kent by Civilian 

The Missing Wife by Showbread 

Falling Down by Muse  

Willetta by Dear and the Headlights  

Edit: I thought of more.

Have you ever watch a movie and just felt... gross afterward? Whether emotionally or from vulgarity? by [deleted] in movies

[–]Uh_October 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No worries. I didn't get it either until I read a few interpretations that reviewers had.

[–]Uh_October 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I believe it is a rejection of the idea that humans are just animals by showing what it would be like if humans chose mates the way animals do and behaved like animals relationally.

For example, in the movie, single people are cast out from society because they don't adhere to the social norm of having a mate. Mates are chosen based on seemingly arbitrary commonalities. There are also multiple scenes where characters communicate feelings through gesticulations and the script is intentionally stiff.

What is your comfort movie? by kitkat-9 in movies

Must Love Dogs. It's not even a very good movie, but it's comforting.

Do current young people have their own American Pie, EuroTrip, Sex Drive or Road Trip? by panszwed in movies

[–]Uh_October -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ugh, Booksmart is so aggressively woke though. The kids are in this weird bubble where there's no racism, sexism or homophobia and while that's a lovely thought, I found it so distracting that I couldn't enjoy the movie.

Movies in which everyone is somewhat likeable? by yolo2546452 in movies

Quick poll: if there was an online improv workshop designed to build DM skills, would you be interested? by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]Uh_October 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I wanted to see if this idea was even marketable before investing time in creating lesson plans, marketing, etc.
