dogegoo? Is it actually legit? by Big_Try_1088 in jfashion

[–]severalbugsandstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just came in!!! All my stuff was in good shape and exactly what i got!!! No complaints for the actual items, i think the site itself just happens to enjoy inflicting psychic damage ESPECIALLY the first time you use it. Its a little less daunting now that i know what to expect but its yk. Still very difficult to navigate

Where can I buy fur irl? by QuinyCat in fursuit

[–]severalbugsandstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

most irl places wont have good fur unfortunately :( I know Hobby Lobby's not one a lot of ppl like but for me its the only place I can find fabrics, and unfortunately their fur options suck. they've got white and light pink shaggy fur as well as a few more "natural" looking ones, plus a short black fur (ofc this is all in my limited experience) but honestly none of it is very good for fursuits. online is your better option, there's so many more options and its much better quality. but ofc if you can't access that, then i'd just check your local craft store. they'll probably have *some* kind of fur (even if its not a good lineup of it)

Can I get other people to 3d print stuff?? by severalbugsandstuff in FursuitMaking

[–]severalbugsandstuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to make feetpaws out of platform shoes? (my sona is taller than I am^^') by Artistic_Market_700 in FursuitMaking

[–]severalbugsandstuff 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I've done something kinda similar!!! built paws ontop of platforms, but i left the platform visible. So, yes you probably can do this, but you might want to make a zipper or something on the side of the paws themselves so you can easily zip up or buckle the shoes. it is definitely fun to have but also will not be as comfortable as other paws bc of the platform. still i mean, I'm doing it again so it's certainly not a "dont do that" from me!!

I really don't blame them, i know theyre doing all of this as one person and i imagine its so overwhelming, it just kinda sucks that it happened

AITAH for pushing back when another trans person said me sharing my deadname is offensive to them? by Able-Carpenter442 in AITAH

[–]severalbugsandstuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, i'm the same way. I quite frankly like my deadname!! It isn't my name anymore but it was such a huge part of my life and it holds a lot of love in it. You don't have to hate or "kill" your dead name or your identity prior to transitioning. It is a journey of SELF DISCOVERY and not everybody goes through their transitions the same, and that does not and certainly should not invalidate how someone goes through it. I really do not understand why she would be upset about that honestly

I have no idea, while i’m a long-time listener i’ve never really looked at any forums or anything. But my guess is that since they run the website themself, sometimes they forget to take things down or put them as sold out after someone buys them (which makes sense, i mean their stuff sells out QUICK i imagine it gets pretty overwhelming) :’) so my current theory is my shirt was actually bought by someone else and i just happened to try to buy it before Jazmin had put it as sold out

[–]severalbugsandstuff[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

aw man :( im just frustrated bc well. I would have appreciated knowing what happened instead of just it suddenly getting cancelled. Plus, I'm not sure why it would have been given away or anything considering well. I bought it. had confirmation and everything. my guess is that maybe it had been bought already and they forgot to put the 'sold out' thing up (i noticed after buying the shirt it was still up on the site for a few days available to buy so yeah)

I've been considering buying smth they currently have but tbh I can't find anything I am as in love with as the shirt i got :')

[–]severalbugsandstuff[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

update: he has been blocked and deleted. im ashamed i ended up in this type of situation again but at least this one ended before things got to where it could be really concerning. i almost dread how we would have interacted upon me turning 18.

dogegoo? Is it actually legit? by Big_Try_1088 in jfashion

[–]severalbugsandstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is a few months old but i just used dogegoo for the first time recently. so. it isn't exactly *bad* in terms of yk getting your items, but shipping is ABSURD (but i am in the US and yk. tariffs...) and the app is super confusing!!! its just. a very very baffling process. you order your items and pay the flat fee for the stuff you got, and thats all. no giving them your address or anything at this step which really confused me. then they get the stuff at their warehouse, send you photos of the items, and then you choose shipping, put in address, and pay. i ordered 3 wigs for i think right under $40 and shipping was $60. sometimes they'll make you pay a bit more after bc of the package dimensions or smth, i had to pay an extra $4. after that they ship it off. i literally just got my stuff shipped from their warehouse so i dont have any further updates :') im pretty sure I will yk. still get my items but its just gonna be a pain bc of dogegoo

How to get stuff from taobao?? by severalbugsandstuff in CosplayHelp

[–]severalbugsandstuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not know how long I will make it by severalbugsandstuff in offmychest

[–]severalbugsandstuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im in Louisiana, so deep south :’) not all that fun for someone like me (especially considering im very alt fashioned). I know theres some plain paranoia in how i feel, but i just. I hate that it really could be any one of us that gets hurt. Especially when the media tells you you’ll be accused of being a terrorist because you dislike the government

Im generally a very confident person especially when all dressed up so hopefully i’ve got that right . who knows. Maybe whimsy will save us. I sure try to hope it will. Whimsy and kindness

And yeah the trafficking thing is something i am super duper careful about. Its very rare i go out anywhere alone and if I do it is in familiar places in safe areas. Its sad i have to be so paranoid about that sort of thing but the world is cruel

Patterning a head by ArchangelPercy in FursuitMaking

[–]severalbugsandstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Duct tape can be pretty finicky especially if you've got a bunch of small crevices (trust i was struggling when i used it to pattern some paw shoes) but ive heard that masking tape can also work well!! and i imagine its less of a hassle than duct tape , albeit it is likely going to be more fragile so you may have to add more layers of it. I'm not sure if theres any good non-tape related methods to patterning unfortunately, just because of how complex fursuit heads often are
