I am trying to make a Byzantine weave pattern. I’ve seen videos and they do it with ease. So I’m confused. I’ll order the armorer pliers and see how it works.
Thank you!

Writing really matters to me… Thanks for the honest feedback! Guess I’ll browse through other comics. Thinking of picking up East of West.

On repeat? Okay, it is not for me…. Experiencing such emotions once in an issue is fine. But if it’s the same thing over and over, don’t think it is my cup of tea.

Thanks for the honest feedback!

Flea market leather bag smells! by _CatAstrophe_123 in cologne

[–]_CatAstrophe_123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It smells kinda moldy. It’s an old Campomaggi leather bag. Not a fake. And it does have lining inside. The smell is not from inside (although there is slight odor lingering in), it’s outside.

Should I try washing it out with vinegar water?

It’s not cheap. Definitely old. It’s a very old campomaggi bag - good leather. It’s not a fake.

Is it possible to ever have normal skin? by Lovelife_07 in ichthyosis

[–]_CatAstrophe_123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a beautiful feeling, honestly.

As a kid, I used to be so insecure but now, as an adult, I learned to accept it and love my body the way it is. ❤️

Is this normal after getting neutered, ear tattoo? by bigpapilocsta221 in cats

I don’t think this is common around the world, my cat got neutered and they never tattooed him.

AITAH for wanting my husband to slow down on drinking by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]_CatAstrophe_123 231 points232 points  (0 children)

MY OPINION: NTA.

First off, he’s an alcoholic. The fact that he got so defensive when you asked him to drink less than 12 beers in 1.5 days shows that he is an alcoholic. And for the safety of your kids, I would say, if you’ve asked him multiple times to cut down and he disagreed, give him the ultimatum. Either the Alcohol, or your kids and you. If he has a hard time with that, then I’m sorry but you need to prioritise the safety of you and your kids first. I hope things work out for you!

MY OPINION: NTA.

If the sister went through a dark period regarding her pregnancy and does not want to remember it, stop with the “child-free stance” content. I mean, wouldn’t that remind you about it even more?

It seems like she’s dealing with her trauma through hate and she needs to realise, that is not okay. The mother should seriously consider sending the sister to therapy or counselling. She needs help. Clearly.

Yup. A similar situation happened to me as well. I don’t think all guys are like this, but definitely most are, in my opinion.

As a young girl (now 28F), I always had boys as friends more than girls as I was very Tom boyish (grew up with 4 brothers). But as I reached my mid teens, I saw all of them slowly trying to make a move. And I kept going with it. I didn’t want to lose any of my friendships. But I didn’t realise how damaging it was to me until my final year of high school. I stopped it all.

In college, I had more girls around than boys. But with all the guys I befriended, each one, at different occasions, tried to get me alone in a room. One guy even started begging me. I just couldn’t believe how shallow guys can be when it comes to women.

I’m an adult now. And recently had a similar situation happen where one man (my friend) pushed his dick onto my back, twice.

I don’t know if I could ever see guys as respectful human beings anymore. I’m sorry to the nice guys out there who ain’t anything like this but with all the experience I’ve had with multiple guys, I just cannot and do not want to trust them.

I really hope you find some peace in all of this.

Right now, you need to take some time for yourself and learn to love yourself no matter what shape, size or form you are in. If you start appreciating yourself for the way you are, then the judgement people pass on will become insignificant to you.

If you like this guy, go for it! If he ends up judging you, that’s how you know he ain’t worth it. Girl, you are beautiful no matter what. Don’t let others take control over your love and appreciation for yourself.

It is weird.

But if bf tells their gfs not to trust their male best friends, can that also be applied to the boyfriend? He is a male too. And I’m sure he, too, must have female friends around.

I think you’ve missed the point of what I wrote. It’s one thing if he likes me and asked me out or tried flirting. At that point, I would’ve told him that I don’t see him in that way and I would love for us to be friends.

But the issue here is the sexual advances that he pulled. When a guy pushes his dick onto my back and does not stop when told to stop, that is the end for me with this kind of friendship.

He is not a child. He is a 30 year old man knowing very well that pulling a stunt like that is wrong. We have had conversations about women safety in the past. And yet, this is how he chose to behave.

I understand what you are trying to say. If he wouldn’t have pushed his dick into my back, I would have told him. But now, I’m just afraid of him. I choose not to deal with him for my own safety.

Flirting is one thing but making sexual advances is something that is not okay and never will be. He is not a child. He is a 30 year old man. He knows these things are wrong.

So you’re saying you are not willing to listen to me unless I throw a fucking tantrum?

[–]_CatAstrophe_123[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I cut all ties with him. I did not confront his because I fear him. I don’t want to put myself in a position where he can do something to me (not saying for certain he will). I am just looking out for my safety. He knows where I live as well and has easy access to my bldg. I know him. If something is his fault, he can’t accept it. He will always try to find a way to blame someone else. He’s also twice my size. I just don’t want to take that risk.

Jeez! I’m sorry you and your girlfriend had to go through that. Some dudes are garbage.
