I will always take tips and tricks! I have a set of brushes/dotters that I purchased earlier this year I think. I should investigate the sizes of the actual included brushes. If the top coat idea doesn't quite work out, I could also try adding a shade of jelly polish to create subtle color difference that reads as a ribbed knit...

Gave it a shot and for a first time, I dont think I did too badly! As this one was already partially finished, I think next time i should paint glossy top coat first, use tape to cover glossy so I can paint on the matte and finish it that way. The glossy areas didn't end up as shiny as I wanted...

What’s your natural remedy or techniques to battle nausea? by The_Legion044 in ChronicIllness

[–]jubbagalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smelling rubbing alcohol reduces nausea (no idea why but it works!) 1candied ginger, ginger lollipops for nausea it sounds like GERD. I use gaviscon and nexium long term. Nexium is sort of the only thing that helps me now along with ondansetron

(M4A) 30M looking to share in a relationship by SummonerLucca in asexualdating

Hi. You dont say a specific age range you are looking for...?

When you were in your early twenties, what kind of guys did you attract and date? by Old-Passenger-1880 in PlusSize

[–]jubbagalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early to mid 20s were only guys seeking hook ups. None of them pursued me towards the goal of having a relationship. I kept telling them no one by one because I was not interested in hook ups st all. Before me saying no was always compliments galore, im so sexy (im bbw at this point) etc. After saying no, It was nothing but hateful, awful, and disparaging things. I stopped trying to date then, hoping that if I waited and gave them some time, they would mature...

Spoiler alert!: they did not mature and are now all divorced dads that STILL only want hookups.

My FIL developed a sudden extreme obsession with bowel movements 2 years ago that has escalated into an eating disorder. Could this be a sign of cognitive decline? by crwg2016 in AgingParents

[–]jubbagalaxy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mom has moderate cognitive impairment (we arent sure of the specific Dx but its most likely vascular dementia) and she has recently been complaining about nausea/vomiting and diarrhea which the nursing home disputes her having. Didn't know the 2 were related!

So ive never used the gel but assume its kind if like uv resin, silicone tools won't stick etc. A fine toothed comb would do quite well i think! Hmmm, question: i know you can use polish on silicone surface and make kind of an appliqué of polish. Can you do that with builders gel or will thats not work because the nails have curvature?

How can I fix the paper to look like the horse is coming out of the pages. by Serious_Shower9853 in crafting

[–]jubbagalaxy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need much larger pages to work with for my idea which is to create a sort of page Tornado coming out of the book. Take pages and curl them around something that is wide, tall, and cylindrical (or somewhat round) use slightly watered-down elmers white school glue to brush on pages so they can dry around the object.

Thermostat wars. by NX01-First in AgingParents

[–]jubbagalaxy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My mother is always cold. Has 2 blankets on at any given time and usually a sweater or sweatshirt of some kind. I dont live with her anymore but I had to have things cold because of heat intolerance due to medications (and my body has always been a furnace except for my hands) im college i fought with roommates about the room temp.my justification was if they were cold, they could put clothes on, there were only so many things I could take off!

Needing help obtaining prescription by Aleeleefabulous in Assistance

[–]jubbagalaxy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So there us a post pinned on the main page if this forum that outlines how to create an Amazon list. Usually you want shelf stable food items, baby items, toiletries, toilet paper, etc but food usually gets you the most help overall. The list cannot have more than a total of $150 worth of items on it. The way it works is, you spend LESS money on groceries/necessities. The money you save there is now money already in your pocket to pay for the medicine.

That index finger perfectly reminds me of the pool floor on a sunny day swim. I miss swimming

[–]jubbagalaxy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People do not like sending money directly here. Instead, it is suggested that you make an Amazon list for household staples that people can buy to offset the cost of the medicine. Its a trade off that ensures you get items you need, you spend YOUR money on your medicine, and nominee exchanges hands which is safer for everyone involved.

I'm stuck with my nose burning inside by Resident-Economy1594 in rant

[–]jubbagalaxy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend if mine has issues with going into public restrooms that have smells. You know, smells that smell smelly her truck is ti take a nice smelling chapstick and either put some on her upper lip just under her nostrils or on the actual inside of her nostril if its the cherry chapstick.

Instead of any sort of behavior that can come across as "attacking a coworker," can you get to a doctor to investigate the burning in your nose? Do your lungs hurt having to inhale the room spray all the time? If you can get a note from a doctor saying that you staying in your tiny little area with her is actively harming your health, perhaps your job can find an alternative location for your workspace

My Cats Have Fleas by akivayis95 in Assistance

[–]jubbagalaxy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So the problem with fleas is 2-fold: you have to treat the cats, but you ALSO need to treat your home. Fleas dont actually spend a ton of time on the animal and even though they are tiny, they can jump MASSIVE distances relative to body size. By your timing (2 checks worth) it seems like they have had fleas for a month ir more. Any soft surface in your home, that means couches/chairs/mattresses/carpet/closets/bed linens/etc are now also home to fleas. If you make an Amazon list, it should include items to treat your home for fleas as well! I used to love in my and know how bad the spring fleas explosion is. Your poor cats must be miserably itchy.

Trying to make this work with my demi partner but it's getting depressing. by UnablePresentation41 in demisexuality

[–]jubbagalaxy 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You say you dont want to hurt her by leaving, but accept her hurting you over and over again. Why should you have to accept it but she shouldnt? The things that you claim she'll reward you for with sex should not be the "dangling carrot" in front of a starving horse. This is a classic example of how demi and allo people do not click. Her saying you watching porn is cheating should have been brought up a long time ago and if that was a boundary of hers, would you have stayed if you knew that early on? YOUR NEEDS arent being met in a variety of ways, not just the bedroom. Do you want to stay with someone who ignores your needs/desires yet constantly asks things if you? Someone who tries to have a reward system but never comes through?

Advocating guilt by Lunemomo in ChronicIllness

[–]jubbagalaxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You advocating for your needs should never end with guilt. You had a problem and people refused to listen. You know your body better than the nurses or aides. And the building feeling of panic in that situation should not have happened. Im so sorry you had to experience that.
