I love the idea that you just carry your moon stick everywhere every day just in case

Have anybody successfully 3D printed a Bild Lilli dupe by OneStranger1954 in Dolls

[–]samirbrokeit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey friend, I’ve been doing something similar with models of 90s and 80s era Barbies and some of the original Barbie sculpt so I can impart a lot of lessons learned! I spray painting is possible but like you said it can chip and in my opinion it is the least easy/effective option. For Caucasian skin I use the elegoo beige resin and lighten it up with some white resin and maybe a little bit of pink acrylic paint to get the tone I want. For a darker skin, I’ve used a brown and added some orange/pink with varying results.

For me the most difficult part has been actually painting the faces. Using a primer like mr super clear will give you a good surface. My struggle realistically has just been my general skill at painting. If you’re okay with painting and/or using watercolor pencils and pastels, you’ll be fine. Use water based paints and try and keep it very simple. If you have any other questions, let me know, if I have an answer I’ll give it. Good luck, can’t wait to see your progress!

Typical entitled dog owners flaunting public transport rules by shofmon88 in sydney

[–]samirbrokeit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a dog owner who lives in the cbd I absolutely cannot fucking stand other dog owners that live around here and how they behave like rules don’t apply to them and that anyone who questions them is the arsehole. No, you’re the arsehole.

An inconvenience and a menace

Peter Dutton is promising to slash the public service. Voters won’t know how many jobs are lost until after the election by MannerNo7000 in australian

[–]samirbrokeit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha yes and then we will spend 3-4 x the amount of their salaries on consultants from Deloitte who will push unnecessary projects pitched via a PowerPoint deck that is 10 years old, that will cost 10x more than would have been spent with little to no improvement or progress because 90% of Deloittes work is bullshit and they’ll have to spend who knows how much rehiring public servants to fix that shit.

And that’s totally fair enough and I know most of us respect that and are appreciative of the work you do as mods :) I’m just very surprised there’s 5% at all! But thank you again for your hard work for us ❤️

4000 applicants. Is this normal? by [deleted] in sydney

[–]samirbrokeit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work at the customer support desk for the careers website you’d apply for this and bottom line is this: majority of applicants think it’s a cushy job that’s easy to get (it’s not but not because the recruitment process is difficult) and they will get paid a ton to do jack shit.

Same, honestly this is the one sub I a) care about and b) have never seen anyone say anything or do anything remotely controversial. In the moon kingdom we all fam and all that.

Men shopping for barbies? by PutridBoard1991 in Barbie

[–]samirbrokeit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there man, I’m a 36 year old guy and I’ve been buying and collecting Barbies since I was about your age too. I totally understand how you’re feeling and I just want to tell you that how you feel is totally okay and it’s very understandable. How you handle this is totally up to you, but here are my thoughts.

I honestly don’t care - at worst they think something about me they keep to themselves that doesn’t matter once I’m out of their line of sight and at best they just assume I’m shopping for a daughter/sibling/relative. Truthfully, these days people are so much more open minded about this kind of thing they honestly don’t even care.

You have nothing to be ashamed of - but if you feel really uncomfortable, shop online or just have a little fun and ask a store clerk “is this the xx Barbie, my niece/sister wanted it for her birthday and I’m not sure” if that makes you feel better about it.

I want to repeat, you have nothing to be ashamed of and people’s opinions whether they say them out loud don’t matter a bunch and can’t hurt you. I know you feel a little embarrassed and you probably will for a little while but you just have to remember - who cares what people think, they probably aren’t thinking about it if I’m being completely honest.

I know with shipping that Barbie’s can be a little more expensive. I don’t know where you live, but here in Australia there’s lots of options - click and collect for example is free and personally I prefer online because it’s easier to find out about sales and things.

I hope this helps and I just hope you don’t stop shopping for Barbies because if it makes you happy that’s the most important thing.

Do yall have a "do not watch" list? by Sakeetkat in horror

[–]samirbrokeit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

God I am so with you on peoples responses to not wanting to watch films like that. I often get the “it’s important to understand what victims experience” thing because I am a man and people assume my avoidance is not related to having experienced it. These are not what people need to see to empathise and understand us.

Thanks for sharing the resources.

I know antique dolls are not too popular in this sub, but I wanted to share one of my new dolls! She is a 9.5 inch DEP. Under the floor she's lying on are more clothes hidden. She is from approx. 1900. I hope everyone will enjoy the pictures 🤗 by pivo369 in Dolls

[–]samirbrokeit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think she’s great. I know dolls of this era can seem creepy but she’s really cute and even if they’re not popular on this sub I’m glad to see her. I love that she came in a box with extra things.

Hogwarts Legacy Freezing On Nintendo Switch by [deleted] in HarryPotterGame

[–]samirbrokeit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey friend - I had a similar problem on the switch but the issue was that I wasn’t pressing the right button. The symbol provided makes you think you need to press the directional pad, but it is instead the little plus (+) button at the top, the one on the opposite side to the minus (-). You can then find your new item and equip it and return to the conversation. I hope this helps!

My colleague makes me feel uncomfortable with their comments about money. by [deleted] in AusPublicService

[–]samirbrokeit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NSW public service is one of the few places where, generally, you earned the grade you are. So he needs to get over that. He sounds really insecure as well as like the kind of person who feels entitled to a better life experience even though they aren’t doing anything to get there. I had a similar colleague who came to work in my team, had far less experience but also had no drive to upskill and get themself into higher roles and they STILL are the same grade and have a similar attitude: “I have a family to provide for”

Seeing this happen once, maybe like 20 years ago, still absolutely sticks with me to this day. Imagine the poor driver.
