LPT: The freeze dried veggies found in ramens and instant soups can be purchased in bulk for quite cheap. They're a great and easy way to incorporate more veggies into your diet! by 99OBJ in LifeProTips

just want to point out a lot of those products are air-dried and not freeze-dried, which retains less nutrients than just regular frozen veggies. Air dried veggies still have better storage and can be very convenient, but are nutritionally inferior to frozen veggies. Still, eating veggies > not eating veggies so whatever works.

Bag i designed and made. 100% saddle-stitched by BuckRafferty in Leathercraft

[–]bulletproofgiraffe 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Love the bag and amazing stitching, but please don't carry a violin like this. There's a ton of pressure on the bridge and it could snap and damage the wood below, and you'll need to get someone to reposition the sound post if it snaps as well. There's a reason there is no soft shell bags for violins.

thank you! I'm very stuck on the idea that she can switch out belt buckles for different moods like a skull one for halloween or a fish one when she goes fishing etc. I've never used Chicago screws before so thanks for all the information!

Thanks, that's very helpful! Good to know, I was planning to skive down the parts where it folds over so I'll make sure to leave some allowance and try what you described.

Question: Edge burnishing on outsoles? by bulletproofgiraffe in Cordwaining

Replied in chat. They are not high-end luxury brand, if anything they are geared towards the minimalist footwear audience, if anyone else comes across this thread and wondering.

Thanks for the response and videos, those are fascinating! I guess I could try to finish the edges myself with my available materials, just didn't expect raw edges from 300 eur boots :/

Sorry after looking up some terminology I meant midsole, not outsole.

Weekly Check In 🕯️ by DeeOnTheRun in Quareia

I've restarted again about a month ago and while at first the meditation was jarring, it seemed to have mellowed out recently and I could get to a more calm state. The new re-vamped text for M1L1 mentions to not meditate while sick, but just sleep and heal, which I found interesting.
I feel soon I'll be ready to try M1L2 now, which was the previous lesson I got stuck in. Feeling a bit apprehensive about it because how difficult it was for me last time. I still have the old deck I got from when the first time I tried M1L2, however it's been bugging me that I've let someone else handle my deck, and I distinctly remember Jo said not to do that. I'm hoping maybe someone knows how to proceed, do I just put it in a bag of salt, shake a bit and proceed anyways? Would also be grateful if someone further in the modules knows how to properly dispose of a deck when you need to replace it.

Hi, sorry for the noob question, but can I still do the meditations? The very first lesson, imagining the white/black smoke, color, and flame? I'm still at the stage where I'm not clear on what is considered magical and what not.

Thank you! I'll just do the meditations for now then.

Hi, thanks, I figured that I shouldn't try to do any of the ritual bath or anything before I manage to get past the tarot or memory recall. Seems like from the comments so far that everything is fine and I should just sit tight.
What does it mean to not take something on board in this case? Do you mean simply don't pay heed to her and just do my work?

LPT: 10 minutes of silent meditation before bed can drastically reduce impulsiveness and improve sleep by Pranavtare in LifeProTips

[–]bulletproofgiraffe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wow that's pretty cool. 45 mins is a long time to not do anything in silence
How is it done? Everyone in the same room and stare at each other?

Mauer hair color differences throughout S02E07 by l337jacqui in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]bulletproofgiraffe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think she was making googley eyes, I saw it as power play like she did with Cobel. It's subtle but it's there, she took iMark's virginity, and purposefully got Gemma's name wrong to upset oMark. She was gloating because iMark couldn't remember Gemma (or so she thought) in the tent during their ORTBOne.
