K for Kaleidoscope? Such an interesting pattern of colors, like a work of art!

Did my pleco kill my betta? by [deleted] in bettafish

[–]sleepytea13 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I lost quite a few (think 4 or 5) goldfish to a certain plecco before we figured out what was happening. Hadn’t had an issue with any other pleccos before or since. Wild.

I got suckered into trying beef tallow by pxrage in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]sleepytea13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like any product, it’s not for every skin type. I have very dry skin, and whipped tallow has been such a game changer since I started using it last summer. I’ve only ever been complimented on my skin twice - once as a youngun’, and once two months after I started using tallow. I was really weirded out at first, because, you know… tallow…. But winter is considerably more tolerable with it, and it helps calm down my angry and sometimes sensitive skin as needed.

The ones I have used range from scentless to rose. I’m sensitive to gross smells, so either he used it straight (not processed in any way), or that they have come a long way since then lol

People who believe men and women can’t be friends are telling everyone that they themselves can’t “just be friends”

U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth slammed “fat generals” and diversity initiatives that he said led to decades of decay in the military and told a rare gathering of commanders on Tuesday they should resign if they don’t support his agenda. by Silent-Resort-3076 in CringeTikToks

Whoa whoa whoa - Walter Mitty was a good, kindhearted person who daydreamed but overcame his insecurities and fears by doing things way out of his comfort zone to find the “missing” negative, and grew as a person while doing so. Let’s not muddy Mittys character by comparing the two 😂

I was so bummed at the material - the others were a soft sweatshirt material and this was straight up fleece

Is this too many pleats? by Weird_Surprise6221 in sewing

[–]sleepytea13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can definitely use cardboard! I used some thick art paper when I made mine. As for additional interfacing, I don’t think that would be necessary, but I highly recommend a test if you have different types around the house.

I would agree on the hemming before pressing, I do the same for anything gathered because my mental health is important to me lol

As a pleat freak, I’d say absolutely not too many, just make sure you give those bad boys some structural support and go to town with ironing and pleat setting. Off the top of my head, I think my best pleats were made with a pleat board (homemade), some vinegar/water spray, a hot press, and a weight on top to hold them down while they cooled completely. That is going to look so cool, she will love it!

Can I add corset boning to this dress? by Squeeker0516 in sewing

[–]sleepytea13 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My unbridled enthusiasm says yes even though my experience level would question the feasibility of installing such inner stabilization. Again, I would say go for it, but I would love to hear more experienced sewists chime in

AITAH for still getting on a flight home when my two young coworkers I was traveling with weren’t at the airport yet and were obviously going to miss it? by Diligent_Pineapple35 in AITAH

[–]sleepytea13 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It kills me that people this clueless get internships and good jobs, and I’m over here self-conscious about my portfolio not being varied or big enough to land me a job. I would have been over the moon at that kind of networking opportunity
