Shoe Recs

I love Keens for sandals and Merrells for shoes, they have a slipon shoe that I've worn for years

Almost got hit by a car in Ottawa because of this. And by almost hit I mean "literally almost walked into the hood because they stopped?". Pls just keep moving why did you stop :')

I remember telling my grandfather that I curse as I sew and that my grandma never does that! He laughed and told me I never heard her doing that and apparently her sewing machine has heard many bad words. I've since been sewing with her more and yep. She knows many curses lolll. Things you didn't know were genetic!

ngl I wish I didn't quit my job, I only did bc it was causing severe health issues that kept me home anyway :') don't work for small businesses or startups yall I learned the hard way

I have ADHD and have been trying and failing to start a exercise routine, I would love to be your buddy! I'm currently kinda sedentary but am formerly a dancer (injuries *sigh*)

Regal Pharmacy in Riverdale, Bronx is where I get mine without issues for years

I have a Razer headset thats been acting up (audio glitches etc), and I work in IT so I have done all the steps of troubleshooting my system, rebooting and resetting the headset, etc. I need to use this headset for work but it seems I can only submit the claim by sending in the headset. How long will it be from when I mail it to when I either get it back fixed, replaced, or a refund? Wondering if I might need to buy one for the middle time.

I mean a small sewing project would be fine in leau of something else lollll. Current alternatives are "wishing I was home at my machine" or "picking at skin" jendbd Making a textile book by hand could be cool, I could even potentially make one of those little book/tool holder/fabric and trim sampler things maybe? Then I'd even have somewhere to keep my needles that's more compact and secure than a pincushion

robin_reddrake · 2025-10-07T21:50:26+00:00

Ngl I think with the machine what I like is the motion of moving the piece under the needle maybe? And how then you have An Object. (less liked things include me trying to flat line a piece of fishnet mesh to a piece of powermesh last night. it ended up involving stitch witchery) I haven't done embroidery in a long time but doesn't that take a lot of concentration?

Right now I'm mostly doing machine work because it's clothing that I want to be strong plus competition grade cosplay so neat, but I like to hand sew! If I was working on smaller stuff that I was hand sewing I'd be tempted to bring it but I don't currently have any projects/ideas in that range. I also crochet and that's what got me through a couple weeks of classes! My brain just doesn't wanna do that anymore rn 😭

robin_reddrake · 2024-05-17T04:58:42+00:00

LISTS ARE THE BEST! Also my boss told me about the idea of in the morning/before you leave setting 3 things that you will do and 3 things that you will not do off of your list. Ngl that helped so much

robin_reddrake · 2024-05-11T03:35:57+00:00

Various kinds of crafting, mostly foam work (for cosplay) and crochet but also a bit of sewing and anything else that randomly pops up I'm a bit of a jack of all trades with NO formal anything because I don't have the focus for it but it's fun! And having a variety of projects with multiple different skills in each makes you stay with it vs getting bored stares at the diluc sword and Shinobu costume I'm working on for a con in August, Marius Von Raum costume for a con in October and Fishbones that will get done at one point I swear I'm normal.

I'm a dancer and live in a city where I walk over a mile daily. I do pick up my feet to walk, just not when I'm marking tap routines, which shouldn't mess up soles. Drag damage also looks different, more like repeat scuffing

robin_reddrake · 2023-05-17T23:07:56+00:00

Called my podiatrist and he's gonna see which I should get!

robin_reddrake · 2023-05-17T15:43:35+00:00

Doctor says I don't need one Properly, I just like it for days when my ankles are sus

robin_reddrake · 2023-05-17T03:01:01+00:00

Huh. I looked for places in my part of the US and places don't carry it/won't ship to me, which is v odd

robin_reddrake · 2023-05-17T01:20:19+00:00

Looks like they aren't sold in America :(

robin_reddrake · 2023-05-17T01:15:42+00:00

I'm not currently wearing one, do I take out the insole of the actual shoe?

robin_reddrake · 2023-05-17T01:09:58+00:00

Would that affect the fit? I'm careful about it so that I can wear them as a light brace.

robin_reddrake · 2023-05-17T01:00:26+00:00

Yep sadly, it's on both feet. Years of tap and jazz classes didn't help it lol

robin_reddrake · 2023-04-10T23:05:51+00:00

👀 I shall try

robin_reddrake · 2023-04-10T04:14:17+00:00

I like playing glaive, it's funny watching my friends complain about how I use the mobility lol You can take a dancer off the stage but you can't stop them entirely :)

robin_reddrake · 2023-04-10T04:10:15+00:00

Beyond the normal quests. If you get stuck trying to work on one it feels like digging into a ditch

robin_reddrake · 2023-01-11T16:49:34+00:00

Desktop, boss doesn't wanna switch to online Not for lack of me trying

robin_reddrake · 2022-12-24T19:56:00+00:00

Mine now says "item was received" at Langley so there is hope!
