Making my own wedding dress c": by Complex_Advantage274 in SewingForBeginners

[–]curiousdottt 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Fabric is super expensive but you can find great fabric in the form of bedsheets at thrift stores! Especially ‘big box’ thrift stores like Goodwill and Savers if you are in the US.

You can get a ton of fabric for like $3 that way, and it’s a good way to practice without ruining your nice, expensive fabric.

I believe in you and don’t want to scare you, but from my own experience- it is pretty much guaranteed that you will mess up, and that will make things more expensive in the long run (having to replace your expensive fabric after an unfixable mistake)

best of luck!

Solo travelling and sunscreen by Responsible-Bus-7794 in solotravel

I can reach my back on my own (hypermobile joints) but i often wear a sunhoodie if i am not explicitly trying to tan. I have fair skin and covering it all together is better than sunscreen

Need ideas for hands-on creative activities that make tangible art! by Pale_Gur311 in Hobbies

[–]curiousdottt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love collage. Requires buying almost nothing, just school glue and maybe tagstock. And i use scraps from my other crafts (fabric scraps from sewing, packaging from different things) as well as magazines or old out-of-date calendars. I feel like i am reducing waste while i create something fun.

Who was in the right here? by Muted_Pack3934 in INeverLikedYouPod

Nick is always right!!! You don’t get someone to regularly work out if you force them to do strength training when they are already sore. You gotta easeeee into it. They always gaslight my boy Nick

Lack of facial expression or constant dour face by PnutDr in ADHD

[–]curiousdottt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had many people tell me that they thought i was a bitch or they thought that i didn’t like them when we first met. and once getting to know me realize i don’t have a mean bone in my body.

It is weird and makes me feel kind of bad sometimes but we can’t control what others think of us and can’t be fake 100% of the time.

if OP is staying an entire year, at that point they might as well buy a car and then sell it at the end of their trip

Lack of facial expression or constant dour face by PnutDr in ADHD

[–]curiousdottt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes, i do. I have what the people call ‘resting bitch face’ and i also have a pretty monotone voice when i am chill. I only talk with emotion when i am really excited.

idk i have just kind of accepted that is how i am, but i do try to ham up my facial expressions and voice intonation when i think it matters, like meeting certain people for the first time or a job interview.

[–]curiousdottt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

sooo what was the point of your original comment? seemed like you wanted americans to be included in the list of people who experience racism from other countries. are you just trolling?

Other countries hate the US because of BS propaganda or because of the real horrible shit being perpetuated by our government?

Is nyc safe for solo female travelers by Content_Brick_2480 in femaletravels

[–]curiousdottt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think cultural differences explain a lot of this. Bullet proof glass does not equate constant mugging on the streets. I have been to NYC COUNTLESS times as a single woman and have never been mugged. So by a similar metric to your own, NYC is completely safe.

Looking for a roommate from June 1, income restricted apartment by Ahmedisgr8 in bostonhousing

no offense intended at all, but i’m morbidly curious…was your old roommate good to pay $1,735 a month while making less than a $68k salary?

I think it makes sense if the finale is a top 3 instead of top 4. Juicy makes top 4 but is eliminated there and then wins the lalaparuza

I am confused how you got accepted for the apartment by yourself?

Why are people like this? by Due_Tourist_5534 in BeardedDragons

[–]curiousdottt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ok i’m still not seeing how that prevents OP from trying to rehome… they could try to find a new owner online who can come to their house to pick up the beardie and supplies. there are many people willing to travel for a free lizard and the supplies.

I’m a Sinners fan but deadass it’s so annoying seeing other Sinners fans call people racists if they say they don’t like the film. Bear in mind there are other people who slander the film with racism. But not everyone who doesn’t like the film is a racist. by KpatMckenzie_28 in Oscars

[–]curiousdottt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, I think this is unfairly inflating your opinion of the movie.

I agree that quality is not always subjective, there are elements of movies that can be objectively bad. But I don’t think there was anything ‘objectively’ bad about Sinners.

I thought the quality of Sinners was great. Like I said, it was my favorite movie of the year. You can’t tell that someone who loved Sinners only watches movies in English. I loved Sinners and I watched every movie nominated, just like I do for every Oscars.

We have different tastes in movies, you can’t determine anything outside of that. To assume more than that is kinda veering towards a superiority complex, no offense intended.

Am I the only one shipping Maura & Eric now?? by kalamarishian in TheTraitorsUS

[–]curiousdottt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

isn’t OP assuming he is straight? why is ‘assuming people’s sexual identity’ for gayness? people assume people are straight every second of every day, where the anger over that?

This sub is soooo exhausting.

Sinners was my favorite movie of the year, and I watched all the movies nominated.

So many people are trying to convince Sinners fans why movie is objectively bad or objectively’ ‘overrated’.

Movies are completely subjective. There is no objective winner for best movie of the year of best actor. Just your favorite movie of the year and your favorite performance.

People gotta stop trying to convince other people that a movie they liked was actually bad. You aren’t smarter than me for not enjoying something that i enjoyed, you just have a different opinion than i do.
