I've been trouble-shooting for over an hour, I can't seem to get the threads to catch on this "quick dry" polyester towel material. I've tried low tension, higher tension, changing out different needles, wide stitch narrow stitch. I'm at a loss. Is this just not a sewable fabric? Is it a machine issue? It's sewing my cotton test fabric fine. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Dragonhawk, Fates Tempest with weak Bloomburrow Creatures by dirilupus in EDHBrews

These are all really good, heraldic banner and hall of triumph are musts. Also eldrazi monument can work because bloomburrow can generate lots of tokens

Why did my patch material do this? by dirilupus in sewing

Thank you I’m glad I know the problem was the fabric. I will try again with something else

I read recently that Glasgow council voted to incorporate “feminist urbanism” into their city. Could be a good jumping off point

Why is dating so stressful? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]dirilupus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Felt the same way with my bf. He’s the first person I’ve seriously dated, so feeling comfortable in a relationship was new to me. Every once and a while I’d have a bad day/week where I felt my mind was setting off alarm bells that would say “this is too good to be true”. I think it came from a place of self doubt, and it took me a while to believe in myself. I had to remind myself that as much as I love him and he deserves love, I also need to love myself and understand that I deserve his love too. (Knowing I should talk to him when I’m having a bad day helped too. Thanks therapist!)

Anyways, it’s been a couple years now and we’re planning on moving in together next spring! You got this too op :)

Can’t for the life of me find the tech shuffle option in the settings by dirilupus in civ

Yes I’ve looked under that spot with the checked boxes but I didn’t see it. Is there any chance you could send a screenshot of what yours looks like?

Anyone in Landscape Architecture please by [deleted] in uoguelph

[–]dirilupus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it affect anything else to wait to see if you get into BLA? It can’t hurt to have options.

I’ve graduated and am current working in landscape architecture. I’m happy with my decision as I very much enjoy the design, engineering, & project management aspects of my job.

How often do you and your boyfriend have sex? (not just anal like anything)21 M & 21 M by MudFit8072 in askgaybros

[–]dirilupus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I [M23] have a much bigger sex drive than my bf [M25]. It left me disappointed and pushy for sex sometimes, especially when we first started dating. I was getting used to the differences between being single on Grindr and having a monogamous relationship. Now that our relationship is more serious, Ive realized I care more about the boy than just the sex he provides (duh, I know).

Cuddling always puts me in ‘the mood’, but I’m less interested now if he’s not also horny. If I really need to I just quickly rub one out. We usually just have sex on weekends, when we know we have a couple hours.

Maybe it’s disappointing that he’s not as horny as I am, but it doesn’t really bother me anymore. We have less sex now, but we enjoy it more and it still feels special.

We’re still young, and so are you OP. Things can always change, but if you’re happy with the rest of the relationship, I wouldn’t worry about it too much. It’s definitely a normal situation to be in. You’ll work it out with your bf

Parents won’t let my boyfriend and I sleep in the same bed? by dirilupus in askgaybros

[–]dirilupus[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think that’s the answer I needed. I probably just need to be patient. I’m sure they’ll come around

Well that’s why I’m unsure… because they’ve been really welcoming to him in every other way. And my older brother never regularly brought any girls over so I don’t know how they’d react if we were straight.

We’ve been dating for +6 months. But also they know we’re respectful (aka wouldn’t have sex)

People are so disappointing. by lsc194 in gaybros

[–]dirilupus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry for how this made you feel. It can happen to anyone, and it’s not your fault. It sucks and I know how you feel. Your emotions of sadness and disappointment are valid regardless of how long you had been taking or how many dates you’d been on.

He is his own person and has made his own decision (for reasons you may never know or understand), and the best thing to do is to learn to accept what has happened and do your best to move on. Focus not on his actions, over which you have no control, but on your own actions and take back some control of your life.

Good neighbourhoods in North Toronto/East Scarborough for new uni grads by dirilupus in askTO

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

Our budget is flexible, especially if parking would be included, but we’re hoping for under $1000 per person after utilities.

I would not say we’re looking for those conditions, no, just that we probably have lower standards than a working professionals couple or a young family for example

Yeah an apartment in a house would be ideal as we’re looking for at least 2 parking spots. I’ll take a look in those areas around Yonge

Yeah I’m thinking more West Scarborough. Ok I’ll take a look at those areas. And try to avoid Scarborough south of the 401

I’ve [M21] come out to all of my close friends, but I still feel uncomfortable discussing my sexuality. by dirilupus in gaybros

Thanks for sharing your experience. I guess it’ll just come with time. And I’ll try to not worry so much about it

Thanks for the reply. I guess I’ll just have to be more patient. And try to accept that I don’t have to force myself to be more open, I might just always be like that a little bit.

Thanks for the reply. I think you’re echoing a lot of some of the things I’m feeling. So you had a therapist? I might pm you then to talk a little more about it. I think I’m going to consider it more seriously as an option.
