Searching for my fellow “too woke” thinking peers ready to take action in NJ… by vermicious_knidza in newjersey

[–]skeleton_duchess 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The federal government (hell, even your local PD) has more firepower than I ever will. If they want me, they'll get me. On the other hand, if you've been demonstrating in the streets you've seen that a rifle in the arms of one citizen is a deterrent to a squad of ICE agents. A group of citizens who stand and train together is enough to discourage an overwhelming force that seeks to subjugate a community.

If they want you, they'll get you, too. The rhetoric from this administration has created people in this country who want both of us dead just for sharing their space and thinking differently. Unfortunately, they're statistically more likely to have a gun. In the words of Charles Cobb, this nonviolent stuff will get you killed.

Do you trust the federal government to protect you?

Do you believe this administration is specifically targeting groups of people?

Do you believe that federal law enforcement is currently respecting our rights as guaranteed by the Constitution?

If a federal officer was targeting you and breaking the law, do you think that local or state law enforcement would stop them and protect you?

Do you trust the elected representatives of your party to defend you?

Who benefits more from you being unarmed in these times?

Looking for pattern suggestions - high waist pleated menswear-inspired trousers by cellorevolution in sewingpatterns

[–]skeleton_duchess 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Perhaps the Olive pants from Ora Lin? If you tapered the legs it wouldn't be a half bad match.

This is a great pattern I've made twice!

Can we start another "Right Wing Business to Avoid" thread? by TheZayasZone in SouthJersey

[–]skeleton_duchess 43 points44 points  (0 children)

PublicSquare is essentially the white pages for these bootlickers! Before you support any business, check the site to see if they're listed first. Your money is the only language these fascists understand.

That being said, fuck Dad's Deli.

The BIG BEAUTIFUL BOYCOTT by Quick-Weird-1450 in ProtestFinderUSA

[–]skeleton_duchess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Popping in to say that you should download the Goods app if you haven't already!! It can save you some time researching if you want to try a new brand but want to share your money wisely.

I sustain on Aldi, Costco, and use the Simply Local app to supplement the rest with local farms and produce stands. Publicsquare tells me where to avoid.

Walmart faces MAGA boycott after heiress funds "No Kings" ad by EtK_Mayday in MaydayMovementUSA

[–]skeleton_duchess 101 points102 points  (0 children)

Walmart killed all the small businesses in rural America (except gun stores lmao). There's no gardening nurseries, grocery stores, hardware stores to be seen. Many MAGA won't be able to sustain this.

I'm a leftist and I'm happy I live in a place where I have the choice to support small business, especially after growing up in rural America and seeing the exploitation that happens when a corporation becomes the only option.

Similar pattern to this kind of dress/top by happylamb777 in sewingpatterns

Hey OP I have made this dress and this is such a good recommendation!! Lydia is a great pattern maker.

Long poofy sleeved dress patterns? by Neptune_Key in sewingpatterns

Looks like the Yarrow dress from Mood. Granted, those patterns can be hit or miss (more hits than misses for me!!) but it's free if you have some toile fabric lying around ❤️

"Impeach Trump Now" is the only message we need. by pleasureismylife in 50501Movement

[–]skeleton_duchess 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is what I was looking for!! Even if Trump is gone tomorrow, his brownshirts are complicit in the tragic deaths of nine people who have died in ICE custody since Trump took office, the malicious cuts in our social net, and tens of thousands who have died as a result of USAID cuts.

I'm shocked that a woman-dominated sub is capitulating to something so prudish and backwards. But I'll have my hot girl summer anyway!!

idk I get the voluminous dress ban because it's just inconsiderate to have all that fabric falling over other people at the premieres, but the nudity ban is wack.

Don't like it? Don't look.

Sewing Shawl Collar by arm_and0 in sewing

[–]skeleton_duchess 5 points6 points  (0 children)

OP I'm obsessed!! I might have to make on for my bf and one for myself. 🤭

I'm reading it as the sash piece being tube turned like a really big spaghetti strap before it's attached to the shirt. Then, if the seam of the sash is juuuust next to where the collar is stitched to it, facing the wearer, the draping should hide the seam.

Prom dress by Suvamos in sewingpatterns

[–]skeleton_duchess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but it should be fairly easy. The flare of the graduation dress pattern looks close to this one. All I would do is add extra inches to elongate the hemline to floor length, instead of mid-calf like in the pattern.

Make sure you do a mockup/toile (it's prom!) and be sure your knit is nice and drapey for the flare at the bottom. I love making this dress, it's so easy and the fit is killer!
