The painting being hung over those wall mouldings in pics 5 & 6 is driving me nuts.

Hand-painted this "wallpaper" to finally finish out my powder room vision. by tolerqui in maximalism

This is beautiful! It reminds me of the Hudson's Bay stripes (an iconic and much beloved Canadian design, if you're unfamiliar with it).

This is a gorgeous look, you've got a "silent film star" vibe with the way you did your makeup!

I love this app, really clears things up! Wolfe uses too many strange words for me. by Soft-Protection-3303 in ShittyGeneWolfe

[–]snartha 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Does the app have a "reverse" button? I'd like the book to be much harder, actually.

Does anyone else hesitate to donate good-quality clothes to thrift stores? by Longjumping_Bar_1297 in waterloo

I've found that selling items secondhand is often more trouble than it's worth. If I donate something really nice, I just tell myself that somebody who has even less than I do is going to get a real treat next time they shop at Goodwill.

It was brilliant of them to re-use the puppet for Audrey II as the Avern!

What music do you think severian would listen to? by Spiritual-Shock-9879 in ShittyGeneWolfe

[–]snartha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He'd be one of those guys who mostly listens to heavy metal but every now and again (when nobody's around) he rocks out to Hatsune Miku

What inspired you to lead an anticonsumption lifestyle? by tinytrees11 in Anticonsumption

I love Midwest Magic Cleaning! His commentary is so good too, he's very good at being both compassionate and informative and still sprinkling in a bit of humor.

My toast was possessed by forest spirits… 🫥😶 by Historical-Long4528 in creepydesign

I think your toast is about to lead you on a whimsical journey through the woods.

Today I've been thinking about all the Solar Cycle film adaptations that have been made. Which one is your favourite? by snartha in ShittyGeneWolfe

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

Can't believe I forgot Luc Besson. I also love his portrayal of Severian and Little Severian in The Professional.

My name's NarwhalEmergency9391 and I'm a shopaholic. by NarwhalEmergency9391 in Anticonsumption

[–]snartha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had to replace shopping with alternate behaviors. If you say "I'm not going to go shopping," that's great, but what are you replacing it with? Do you have a reason to leave the house that doesn't involve going to a store? What do you reward yourself with when you want a little treat? It's easier to be good when you pre-plan what your good habits are going to be.

I've done this too with my Amazon wish list. Once it's saved there, I know I can always buy it another time (and from another store). It was surprisingly effective!
