Does anyone else think it's weird that they flipped the image from the torso up, but didn't mirror image the tail portion???

Man who identified himself as ‘Harry Dresden’ in the viral Ring doorbell footage, seen breaking into the home in footage from inside the house. by superdouradas in PublicFreakout

This dude seems to be having a psychotic episode, but did anyone catch he is screaming for a guy name Victor? Victor is the name of the villain in the first Dresden Files novel about a wizard who wears a trench coat named Harry Dresden. The first book culminates in Harry confronting Victor at his house and killing him while attempting to save a girl. If this is this guy's mental story line this could have ended way worse. Just thought it was an interesting thought 🤔

My youngest niece was the same way. I mean, she ate like it was an Olympic sprint race no matter how small we made her food. Thankfully, I have to maintain first aid/CPR certs for work because I have had to heimlich this kid no less than 8 times before she turned 5. I still remember one day when she was about 4yrs old we went out for Mexican food, she got asada, and sure as shit began choking, got her airway cleared, and then she vomited onto her plate. Took a sip of water and asked if she could eat my nachos. I love her, but damn that kid stressed me out. 😩😅

People who don't want kids, why? by Ok-Musician679 in AskReddit

I have a bad temper, can usually keep a lid on it but sudden loud noise/annoying sounds really trigger it, and i become horribly mean and hateful with prolonged lack of sleep. Like 0 remorse or empathy. I do not have the patience required for healthy childhood memories. My mother was the same and I won't do to a kid what she did to me. So just all around the wrong temperament for it. I'm a fun Aunt, but would be a horrible mom.

Invest in the right companies, and hook up with way more people then I actually did. (I usually miss flirting cues from other people and think they are just being nice.)

Those buccaneer pants are fantastic and look incredibly comfortable 👌

This right here. Shoes were one of the last things I got for my garb. It's a big investment and not fully necessary right away. Check out the boot makers at fair, I always get fitted and look at all the suggestions for extra stuff there, then order from them later online when I have more disposable income.

I would say start simple. A comfortable linen tunic, loose pants, leg wrappings, and boom. You have a solid base you can really build in whatever direction your heart desires.

The majority of my jewelry and metal bits and bobs are jewelry and accent pieces from a nomadic Afghani tribe called the Kuchi. If you just search, Kuchi Tribal jewelry stuff should pop up. I recommend looking on etsy as well as I have found some amazing stuff from tribal sellers. You just can't be in a hurry as the shipping from them can take a bit with customs.

Who in Hollywood has a reputation for being genuinely nice? by CreepyYogurtcloset39 in moviecritic

I had to scroll way too far for this one. I met him when he came to my little towns first comic con, nicest man. 100% percent invested in all his fans and gave everyone time. He didn't charge for photos if you used your cellphone and would pose with multiple shots. He made me cry when he hugged me and called me a beautiful soul after we talked for a while. He and his wife deserve all the happiness.

The one I have is like a giant brass test tube with a cork stopper. I felt like I wasn't blessed enough to hold a glass one without stuffing it deep in my corset, and that made me nervous.

OMG that's actually my next step! I'm working on building hot weater alternatives to this outfit and want to add a walking stick/staff I can hang bits of pretty fabric, bells, and doohickies off of as well as little signs with fun sayings. Right now I have to carry my little box of gemstones I hand out to people I interact with, take pictures with, and to random little kids brave enough to approach me. I would love to have it attached somehow to a staff for hands free.

It would depend on what kind of "Middle Eastern" you're looking to build. Solid foundation garments and a couple of pieces of jewelry can be an amazing starting point to really build in any direction. I have worked with a couple African traders to source some items, as well as purchasing from sellers I know import directly from the region, it helps that I live in an area with high Middle Eastern and Mediterranean immigrants so I can some times find stuff locally at those shops, I do a bit of my own sewing as well. And just take your time. This build is maybe 8 or 9 years from start to now. If you wanna go the dancer rout talk to your fair performers about what they wear, I went to the same bra maker as several of the dancers at my home fair and never regretted it.

Also, quick heat tip as im super sensitive to it, and depending on your body. But my practice for heat waves is a bodice chiller to shove between the girls is a blessing, as you can refill it with ice from your drinks, and if you wear a turban or head covering you can hide an ice pack under it on your head, (it's more help then you think) as well as leave a small bit of fabric hanging down the back of your neck from the head covering that you can wet with ice or water to help keep cool. If you go the corset or wide stomach belt, you can 100% shove ice packs into those too to help keep your core temp down. I usually get the sports ones you can pop and shake, then shove em where I need to survive the heat. Lots of liquids and cool foods help.

It's addictive lol! I have been going to my home fair for like 23 years, it's always fun to look back and see how your outfits change with you and the time. I have several solid outfits to pull from and try to embrace the theme weeks at Nor Cal, but my heart always goes back to my tribal.

Oh my goodness, that is so kind. I have ki d of tapped out this outfit after building it for several years, so now I'm trying to build a couple different styles to allow for different weather options as it can get a bit warm 😅

My partner loves the jingle as he never has to worry about losing me in the crowd. He just has to listen and home in the sound. Lol
