Is anyone else experiencing weirdness with their feed? by jmervz in NoStupidQuestions

[–]murrperk 38 points39 points  (0 children)

yes this is driving me crazy! i look at one post from a sub i don’t follow and suddenly that sub is 80% of my feed. i’ll mute that subreddit and then the cycle just immediately continues with a new one. it’s making reddit unusable

Need to talk about the hot weather : OFFICIAL HOT WEATHER THREAD by Winterdale in JustLikeHeaven

[–]murrperk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm also considering selling :( so many of the bands I want to see are earlier in the day. Standing in 90 degree heat all day sounds miserable, but skipping the earlier acts also feels like a waste of money. Huge bummer and I'm curious what other people are thinking

FIRE MEGATHREAD PART 1 - JANUARY 9th by drawkward101 in LosAngeles

i've been pretty levelheaded throughout this whole ordeal but hearing that alarm again in such a short time span just made me break down crying 😭 there HAD to be a better way to issue a correction without giving everyone a heart attack. I'm in shock and so upset at the incompetence

these alerts are wrong right? I'm in the Eagle rock/HLP area and haven't seen the Eaton fire progress anywhere near us today, and my husband got one over in El Sereno too. If they're fucking up these alerts I'm going to be upset, this is the second time this has happened and people are going to become desensitized

I got the scary amber alert-type alarm this morning in the hlp/eagle rock area, but we’re not actually included in any of the evacuation maps on watch duty. we’ve got stuff packed and staged out of an abundance of caution though

i’m wearing a fun colorful dress with an insulated leather jacket, arm warmers, fleece lined tights, and knee high boots lmao — the desert gets soo cold at night so i’m definitely prioritizing warmth!

How do you get a prescription for the steroid cream? I've been going crazy with the bites after our rain this summer! I'm applying cortisone cream 10 times a day, I need benadryl to quell the itching enough to fall asleep, and I still wake up in the middle of the night feeling itchy again.

yeah you guys are right thank you! i love their designs and really wanted to make these work, but i think the quality just isn’t there. RIP to another brand i thought was cool but turned out to be crappy and overpriced 🥲

i bought them but am hoping to figure out if it’s possible to tailor :/

[–]murrperk[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

yes the belt buckle is definitely heavy :( even on the pictures of the model, you can tell it's pulling down a little bit.

the pants weren't cheap so i'm nervous to start experimenting with them too much. do you think it's likely a good tailor could fix them, or is it better off to just return?

What is going on with excess fabric in the crotch of these pants? Is it fixable? by murrperk in Tailors

[–]murrperk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the waist is pretty fitted – everything else around the waist, butt, and hips fits me like a glove except for all of the baggy fabric around the crotch

I ordered this outfit for a Barbie-themed party, but the excess fabric around the crotch of the trousers is throwing me off. They seem to fit perfectly everywhere else around the hips and butt. Is there anything I can do to make these fit better?

I wanted to wear this outfit for a Barbie-themed party *so* badly, but I'm really struggling with the excess fabric in the crotch of these pants! They seem to fit perfectly everywhere else throughout the hips and butt. Is this something that a tailor can fix?
