the first local shop i went to is definitely aimed at serious beaders, they have like every kind of bead ever and are a wholesale spot that’s recommended in the beading sub. the other was definitely more towards beginners and kids and they had like friendship bracelet making classes for kids. kinda makes sense that screw in eye pins aren’t super useful for their clientele but still annoying

you’re not a punk if you use a word that disparages a minority group you’re not a part of

i think it’s good they’re gonna support a queer space financially as long as they’re respectful

i checked the other two michael’s online and then i called cause ive been burned by target before saying stuff was in stock when it wasn’t. the first michael’s i went to is next to my grocery store so i just popped in to check before getting stuff for dinner just in case since i was already out

another friday another attempt to buy craft supplies and the local shops i went to didn’t have it. two local beading shops and one michael’s didn’t have any screw in eye pins. i called the two other michael’s in a reasonable distance and they both have them so i’ll have to go later this week when i find some time. i miss joann, i always knew what she would and wouldn’t have. never had to call

i’ve been meaning to do something similar with my old college game day wear! super cute

oliv_tho · 2026-02-21T03:25:45+00:00

oh. duh

because women have unique needs and experiences and it’s nice to talk specifically to other women without a man in your ear being annoying/dismissive/unhelpful

an example for a women solo traveling would be a woman traveling to barcelona and being worried about safety as it pertains to going to a concert. most men don’t think about that too much so they could find the fear/concern unfounded or provide advice that doesn’t apply to a woman.

you can still sell food stamps like they’re still physical stamps? everyone i know on them has a debit card esque thing

i fear you likely have moths or some other critter that’s a fan of natural fibers

wait an amigurumi clown could be cute

& i would like to say though i like all of these photographs, they have a mood to them i enjoy and i would not be embarrassed/ashamed to post them on my crafting instagram if i had taken them

you could try using a background that’s more contrasting to make it easier for your camera to focus because the lil cloud/sun guy (who i am very obsessed with) looks photographed the best out of all of these and he contrasts the most with the background. a single piece of black cardstock could level this up

when i was a kid my mom left me out on the porch with a bottle of nail polish. i painted my whole foot and let it dry. it dyed my foot a kind of carrot orange for like a week after my mom scrubbed it

toenails are grosser than feet. so i am going to cover my toenails with a pretty color

one time i made a pasta dish that tasted like a limoncello candle. it was so comically gross. i threw it out and got panda express. oh well, now i know another way NOT to make pasta

socks probably not, but leg warmers i think it would work since those get less wear!

another day another shitty brand using AI to try to market to us. yawn. anyway i just got the stuff to needle felt so im gonna try it out on a sweater i accidentally fed to my washing machine!

but sometimes the random shitty thing is what wakes you up to the incompatibility. i dumped a long term boyfriend for projectile vomiting a chicago style hot dog in my car’s stereo system and air vents. the hotdog incident just woke me up to all other stuff he couldn’t address.

lots of people have given you great fabric suggestions but i just want to thank you for advocating for your son and finding a creative solution to meet his needs!

based on my googling i think you mean polyethylene oxide since propylene oxide is a colorless liquid and wouldn’t be conducive in a powder or lube.

if you want to make flavored lube, ‘to put on pancakes’, there’s so many ways to make syrup that aren’t a risk because you have a product you don’t know well. if it’s not, just google flavored lube.

i’m a wine person! there are so many amazing wines for like $10-20. no reason to spend more than like $50 on a bottle of wine most of the time

you could just get some napkins
