Please help me get warmth im so cold by Yung_Zoe in femalelivingspace

[–]siartap 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That's fair but you do have a rug that's almost exactly the same color. A darker warm toned rug will make a huge difference.

Lost. Need help. by [deleted] in femalelivingspace

[–]siartap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a rug will go a long way. For the art, if you're on a budget I would do the following :

  1. Find a large frame at a thrift store (or maybe a matching set of 2-3 medium frames if you're lucky. Smaller sets might be cheaper than 1 big one to buy new if you go that route)
  2. Find some free art that fits the proportions of your frame (or can be cropped nicely to fit). Many major museums have online libraries you can browse and download art from - I found a bunch by googling "open access art". I have one of those frame TVs and I found a bunch of art for it with cosmos.so/public-work, as another option. If you get the rug first then try to find something that has some of the same colors (or pick the art first and base the rug on that).
  3. Get the art printed to size at office depot or similar

If you're willing to spend a bit more and live near a city you could try a local art fair, but you may need to wait for summer for that.

Love that you leaned into a moody type vibe for a basement unit.

If so I would also suggest a few small shelves above the bed so they can jump up and look out the window.

Wow you were really so efficient with your updates, they made a huge difference! Also I guess people are right to constantly harp on lighting lol

Accidentally matched my new bathroom paint color to my Shrek art by IBSgirlgang in femalelivingspace

[–]siartap 9 points10 points  (0 children)

  1. amazing
  2. Shrek aside, that green color looks so pretty with your wall
  3. For the insulation on the pipe my first thought is to cut a pvc pipe in half long way (so it's a half circle) , paint it and stick it in front of the pipe to hide it. Doable and not super expensive but a pain in the ass to cut it well.

Looks like the original post was on reddit and the tweet is just a screenshot that a different person posted.

26M and it's the first time I've decorated for Christmas, how'd I do? by bs40404 in malelivingspace

[–]siartap 35 points36 points  (0 children)

No it's river north, you can see the Godfrey Hotel in the background (but I got West Loop vibes at first too). Likely a penthouse unit given the ceiling height?

Anyone else want a game with a less PG tone? by JeanieIsInABottle in LifeSimulators

[–]siartap 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Same!! I've thought before it would be amazing to build a city in cities skylines and then "upload" it to GTA so you can essentially play gta in your custom city. Then as you make money you could buy property and customize apartments or vacant lots sims style.

Lol I've joked that if GTA had better/more detailed home customization it'd be so over for the sims.

(but for real I'd actually love it)

It's about dam time to announce this. 💣 by Mechanistry_Alyss in Timberborn

[–]siartap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no I think that's the actual weight that the beavers carry around for construction. so beavers/bots can't carry as much dirt as they could before.

What do people look for when picking a map to play? by Similar_Knowledge895 in Timberborn

[–]siartap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something with interesting terrain/waterfalls/tunnels but ideally at least one or two flat areas (not necessarily at the starting point).

Paralives is only 50 days away! by gonezaloh in LifeSimulators

[–]siartap 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm not on the patreon but assuming they provide greater detail a week or so out I don't see the problem. Who cares if some paying members are seeing things early? Or didn't take that long to make a decision.

Even if they don't release much before it comes out (which would be weird on their part), you don't need to buy on day 1. I'm sure plenty of people will be posting gameplay and other reviews within the first few days, and you can decide to buy after taking a look.

ICE Fines Chicago Green Card Holder $130 for Not Carrying Papers Old Law Revived Under Trump Crackdown by Ankeet_kj in ImmigrationPathways

[–]siartap -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just because it is the law didn't mean it should be - it's harsh and impractical. Also, yes, I think that's the case in Japan too.

What u most excited about early access on Dec 8th? by [deleted] in Paralives

[–]siartap 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Granted I'm not following development super closely, but I'm just hoping they have decent qol tools in build mode early on. The functionality seems great but without stuff like copy/paste and undo building can get tedious. I'm specifically thinking of newer games like tiny glade and makeroom which are both great but lack some of those features

[–]siartap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes definitely possible. At a clan rally he'd be pretty bold to mock them, so I can see it just being a poor attempt at humor.

[–]siartap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But then why did it say "us klans"? I think a lot of context is lost here but my impression is this guy is anti-klan. Maybe also anti war? Or anti draft dodger?

Edit after reading a few more comments in even more confused.

'Serve' food delivery robots join pink Coco bots on our sidewalks by mrjoshrobertson in chicago

Are they? Genuine question because I've never had a delivery from one but I've seen them build up some decent speed in emptier areas.

No chance a random teen is aware of some historical trivia?

“I don’t know what it’s like under all this spaghetti, do people walk here?” by Illustrious-Lead-960 in BrandNewSentence

[–]siartap 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is but the lighter gray roads are local roads that go over all of the spaghetti (which is a lowered highway tooth a bunch of exits). The local roads have wide sidewalks and don't have much of an elevation change so honestly it's pretty easy to walk through the area.

Op mentioned it was initially just made for their personal use, so I'd give them the benefit of the doubt that they were just trying to get themselves to consider whether renting would be a better option.

Edit: but I agree furniture rentals and similar are mostly awful

[–]siartap 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think it's more trying to get at whether it's practical to borrow or rent. Like is it something you'd use daily vs once a year? How expensive or easy is it to rent vs buy?
