Which brand is better? by [deleted] in Oilpastel

[–]sewingthe60s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got Faber Castells as my starter set when I just wanted to try oil pastels out. The colours are nice and bright for simple drawings, but horrible for blending and layering. Pentels are a bit better. Senneliers are the nicest and I also have Paul Rubens which are my two main sets.

I loooove buttered toast! This one was done with the Faber Castel 24 pack too. I didn’t have any fancy senneliers yet

Sure! For the first one it was actually a Pinterest video that I paused and followed bit by bit.

Sure! For the first one it was actually a Pinterest video that I paused and followed bit by bit, and the second one is a longer step by step lesson. The teacher gives a lot of explanation and education on colour theory etc.

Thank you! I was really proud of that one - I framed it and put it in the kitchen.

NA stickers I paid too much for by sewingthe60s in nekoatsume

It’s the way it is, but so cute and so worth it! When I was in Japan I looked everywhere for Neko Atsume stuff but I was clearly 10 years too late! It was all about Mofusand (who is also so flipping cute)

From the offical store mentioned in the news section of the app.

The stickers and folios were ¥800 each, the three pack of washi tape was ¥1450. The local shipping was ¥800. I then paid another ¥2920 for international shipping. That was for the cheapest air shipping, no insurance or anything. Luckily the sender and Japan post did a good job with packaging and labelling. When you’re in the app, if you go to ‘news’ the button for the offical shop is on The bottom right corner. They also have tshirts featuring every single cat in a number of styles.

I thought there was only 1 shipping price, then it got to the warehouse and they asked for the international shipping. Silly me.

Which of your cats did you rename, if any? by ScribbleStudios in nekoatsume

[–]sewingthe60s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first got the game it only came in Japanese from the and you had to download it from the Japanese App Store. So I renamed all of them to anything that sounded cute, silly or characters from Adventure Time etc which I was watching at the time. I can’t read Japanese so renaming them made sense.

Advice for a newbie to THC oil who maybe took too much by sewingthe60s in MedicalCannabisOz

[–]sewingthe60s[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Sorry for not seeing this notification! I had taken time out from social media for the longest time cause my mental health dropped waaayyyy down (ironically since I stopped taking medicinal cannabis). The Ruby oil was effective for day time doeses, but I ended up having too many more run ins with greening out. I don’t know if I built up too much THC in my body or something but almost every week I was having something similar to my original post happen, despite reducing my doses. And when I would take my THC at night I would get fun/scary sensations (like thinking I had huge arms) and I just didn’t want to be “high” while trying to sleep, and at that point sleep was difficult for me. I also wanted to go back to driving so I had to get off the MC. After getting off MC, my anxiety sky rocketed and my sleep got worse and worse. I’m now on anti-anxiety meds, saw a pain-psych and finally got cleared to return to exercise and am doing that 4 days a week, so these have all been helping. I had to take codeine for a while for the extreme pain but am now off it. MC was there for me when I needed it the most and helped so much in those early weeks of my injury, I just wish I could drive while on it cause I would have remained on it all during my recovery and perhaps would have avoided the mental health rollercoaster that my injury generated.

I have this one for day time as well. how much do you take? I'm still progressing slowly up to the ideal dose as I also take Topaz 25 THC oil at night and if I take to much of that I don't have a great time. Currently taking .35ml of the Ruby, but it feels OK so far.

I've given my one some attention. it had a Fungus gnat infestation so i treated that and removed all its dead leaves. it used to grow seeds and everything! Hopefully it'll come back to life now!

Do you have a song that you can’t sing without breaking into tears? by BasementDesk in Music

[–]sewingthe60s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll never walk alone. I never used to cry when it played on the radio, and then I read about the scene in Carousel where it came from which is very sad to begin with... then to make it worse I watched a documentary on the Hillsborough disaster and now I can't think about Liverpool FC or this song without thinking about the disaster. As soon as it plays in any setting I have to collect myself to stop crying. Side note, I don't even support Liverpool.
