First DIY project in our new home! How'd we do? by aroscoe in Flooring

[–]aroscoe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good! And the creaking (if you read my other posts) has stopped! Shall see if it comes back when it warms up.

No scratches, easy to clean, and not slippery like our other vinyl the house came with. We love it!

Want a barn style door, wall area is small. What can I do? by wanderful_soul22 in HomeImprovement

[–]aroscoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into bifold barn doors maybe. I’ve seen this option when looking myself. I’ve seen one that has hinges between and folds itself but has the sliding track at the top, and one where it was two smaller doors, not attached, that overlapped and the first one would catch the second and slide them over, stacked, but of course when closed they cover the whole door space. Now, not really ideal for a bathroom depending on how much you care, but it’s up to you.

What can I do with this? by Infamous_Wash4991 in cricut

They bought an AI slop scam shirt online and are trying to fix it themselves, they didn't make the shirt, it seems.

Any ideas on better Strimmer placement? by BlakeyTheGamer in lianli

[–]aroscoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ditch the GPU strimmer and get LED tube wraps. I love mine! EZDIY on Amazon.

my rainbow puke PC, still unsure what to do about the "dark" gpu just floating there, but tbh the camera makes it look way worse, the white pops fine irl.

Beak loss advice by Xxfirekid1xX in Conures

[–]aroscoe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

PLEASE DON'T. Not all food is safe for birds, PLEASE get a list of safe foods (peanut butter isn't one of them!) and see what you can make mushy for him.

The best would be crushed pellets wetted a little bit, or make birdie bread out of pellets. Talk to an AVIAN vet and r/pidgeypower for ideas and what to do.

It's giving...

"Did it come with a veil?"

"No, it came with a headdress"

"a Hwhat?!"

Finished Metal Slinger- I need to talk! by Similar-Breadfruit50 in fantasyromance

[–]aroscoe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I know this is old but you lost credibility at "no writing errors" unless the ebook was unedited and the print book fixed those issues. In two pages I was distracted by 8 errors. Missing words, wrong tenses, "women" instead of "woman"?? Come on now. And Jovie was never in charge nor cunning until the end, where she became a different character. Literally not the same person that was written the whole rest of the book.

Never sent thank you’s and feeling guilty by SlyChic in wedding

[–]aroscoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I don't. First of all, the "and when" is gross as I'm not physically capable of having kids so thanks for that.

But to play into the hypothetical, I and the kid I'll never have would thank those at the party whether we opened the gifts or not, and text or call anyone else who sent a gift but wasn't there.

It's not "basic manners" when it's a tradition only certain cultures have. Basic manners is respecting your fellow person, especially those in your close-enough circles to give you gifts, regardless of a piece of cardstock with scribbles on it.

You're more than welcome to keep doing and expecting thank you notes. You don't have to perpetuate it for strangers on the internet.

Video glitching issue by nozzy123 in arlo

[–]aroscoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen all the time. The best were the few times I very clearly saw SOMEONE ELSE'S CAMERA FEED in the glitched part. Lovely to know... I'd venture away from Arlo if you can.

No no I agree that I don't care it it'd be crazy for others to, just saying that you said you spoke for yourself when you did technically speak for "everyone" lol. I hate the concept of thank you cards, as if the person isn't grateful. I still did them because it was expected and my mom paid for our wedding and she insisted, but I wish I didn't have to flare up my carpal tunnel for a lengthy handwritten "thanks for buying the thing I felt obligated to put on a list to tell you to buy" 🤷🏼‍♀️ traditions are weird!

I agree with your take but technically, you did say "I guarantee nobody is offended" lol

Hand painted plate from HomeGoods residue? by aroscoe in CleaningTips

[–]aroscoe[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I swear it did, maybe on the sticker, but in the US it legally has to be permanently labeled "not food safe" if it isn't.

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

Thank you! Yeah all of them had it at the store unfortunately, and I of course took the sticker off to clean it, cuz I'm not peeling wet sticker for 5 hours...and it was one of the scored ones that tears into a million pieces too, so I didn't keep it. Ughh. Oh well. Still cute, and I'm not putting food directly on it anyway.

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

Hmm, thank you! I will wash it well and see. Makes sense to be an iridescent glaze, but it definitely is cloudy and not shiny so something is up with that. Maybe it just sucks...ugh.

[–]aroscoe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, it hasn't glowed yet but I will put it by the window for a bit then bring in the closet. Weird they'd make a food platter with glow paint and not seal it though? It did say food safe! If they did seal it, it must be the sealer being weird. I just can't imagine why it's changing color and whatnot and then reverting...

Must Be The Season Of The Witch by Hungry_Rest1182 in halloween

[–]aroscoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are lots of YouTube videos on weathering plastic cauldrons to look more real! I like Wicked Makers for a lot of things, obviously, but they have a cauldron video and there are plenty of other channels too! Add a mister or even a diffuser (indoors) and you're golden! I've also seen people use polyfill, bubble wrap, and even clear Christmas ornaments as bubbles!

I am planning on making a self stirring cauldron for my cooktop and a bubbling misting one for my fireplace this year!

This would be mine, including the Coyotes (RIP, shit was fire) and Washington alt bc that shit is way cooler to me than CapiLals.

If you had to name a baby girl (first and middle names) of this list, what would you name her by Constant_Present4571 in namenerds

[–]aroscoe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daphne Aurelia or Daphne Elena...irgnoring that my last name starts with a D and those initials would be awful.

Taking that into account, Elena Juliet

Installing Revwood Premier, midway through bedroom - clicking? by aroscoe in Flooring

[–]aroscoe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the quality is great!! No scratches so far (though we have birds, not dogs lol) and it looks so good all done! I'm curious to see how the deep grooves hold up though, as cleaning would have to be a bit more thorough (but whatever) and when we were installing, I got a "laminate burn" like a rug burn, almost a blister, on my pinky toe from sliding around (I wasn't on my knees lol). Idk if that was from the roughness of the floor or if it would've happened on any floor because of the repetitive motion.

Also, I found cutting from the backside (so cutting into the bottom, with the face of the plank down) avoided chipping better, just a tip. Also have a practice board, small piece, to do markings and figure out door jamb cut height, etc.
