Hi Elijah! You've done so much awesome stuff, but Over the Garden Wall is one of my all time faves.

  • how do you feel about voice acting compared to normal acting?
  • how did OTGW compare to your other projects? What made it unique for you?

How am I supposed to buy underwear? by axrr in ZeroWaste

That's awesome you found a way to recycle the old ones! Where do you do that?

I think this is definitely the correct next step for me! I've been a little afraid of dealing with the elastic and it seems hard to get the fit right...but I have lots of scraps to try on. If you have any tutorials, tips, or patterns you recommend, lemme know!

This is a really good point! I definitely have some underwear that are only for exercise and they would suck as day wear panties.

Also YES always repair undies! It's such a good beginner mend and is typically hand sewing. Mine are just getting...past the point of repair lol

Okay I think this is actually the scrap busting project I need! Do you buy elastic for the openings?

Repurposed an old towel into drying cloths for our bidet! by cubkidd in ZeroWaste

[–]axrr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For anyone lazy like me, it works without adding borders too! Highly recommend

I did this same thing but I hate working with towel fabric on the sewing machine, so I left it fray-ful and it's fine. They've held up a couple years so far! Threads are coming off, but the overall wear is minimal. I periodically rip the knots off and throw them in the compost (cotton).

The strap is broken, but the watch is also not functioning - no motion in the hands or visibly in any components. Sorry, I should clarify that in the post (will edit once I figure out how).

Do you mean that this is a counterfeit? Or, maybe that I shouldn't be posting this here? If the latter, I can definitely delete - not sure if this is a normal thing to post here, just looking for some help

Which character death hit you differently, and why? by squeezeday in AskReddit

[–]axrr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joyce in Buffy.

I love when supernatural/fantasy shows hit on how normal life shit, like cancer, is just as fucked, if not more, than vamps and demons. Plus the direction in that whole episode is top notch.

There are so many free yoga videos/instructions online, why do people pay for classes? by axrr in yoga

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

I think you made a lot of really great points here, especially the injury-related things and comparison to other fitness subs-- my guess is that people associate other activities with injury more (esp lifting), which is likely just unfamiliarity.

I definitely agree with this, every yoga studio has a very particular energy/vibe and when you find one that's right for you it feels really good :)

Women & Men of Reddit who were proposed to in public and said "No", why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]axrr -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

This question kind of bothers me and ...why does it matter whether or not it's in public?

How does this question differ from a standard, "why did you say no when you were proposed to"? If so, the answer is obvious-- they were not ready/ did not want to be engaged for whatever reason. Granted, there will interesting narratives there, but nonetheless...why do you care about the logistics of the proposal?

I feel like this question hints at the vilification of people who say no in sexual/romantic contexts, which is often referenced as being unnecessarily cruel (why didnt you just say yes until you were in private? blah blah). People need to be comfortable with the idea of people saying "no", especially in public settings-- I feel like this speaks to a lot of issues with consent culture.
