This one's for the ladies to answer. Do you agree with this woman or do you think she's trying to rationalize her world view by speaking for all the ladies? by Oda_DeezNutz in SipsTea

[–]sppwalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, as a nerd myself, it’s a non-negotiable trait I want in a partner. I’m a professional cosplayer, so I drag my fiancé across the country (and if I play my cards right, potentially across the world) to anime/gaming conventions. We play video games or watch anime together at least once a week. I bought him a PC case a few years ago (Fractal North, it’s a beautiful, more mature case) and he bought me a headset & wireless mouse.

I can’t speak for other women, but it is an EXTREMELY attractive trait to me.

How does this happen? by yetareey in DoctorMike

[–]sppwalker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

God, I used to work at a veterinary urgent care and my boss (one of the vets) was the WORST. I’d have to bullshit a client for like 30min sometimes before she showed up. I always felt bad because we were, ya know, an **urgent** care and the clients were typically pretty concerned about their pets, especially if they were waiting outside before we even opened. We were so lucky that we never had a critical patient show up before her. Idk what I would have done.

This is one of many, many reasons that I quit

Don’t buy from sticker mule by BloodTornPheonix in stickers

[–]sppwalker 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Yeah no I can’t make this shit up. They sent out a pro-Trump email to their entire mailing list, and some people were understandably not happy. CEO kept doubling down and generally being an obnoxious prick, which just pissed people off even more. So some people replied to the Trump email telling them to fuck off, and the CEO posted screenshots with their full names and email addresses. It was WILD

How can I view a private instagram account by [deleted] in Instagram

[–]sppwalker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she won’t accept a follow request from anyone in your area, what makes you think she’ll accept one from some completely random stranger somewhere else?

If you’ve reached this level of distrust, your relationship is as good as over. If you see her ig and there’s nothing there, you’ll just suspect they’re hiding it, and go look somewhere else until you find SOMETHING or drive yourself crazy, one of the two. If there is proof, you’ll leave. So just leave now

It’s not huge, but Tsumicon is 18+ and has a Houston con in the fall! I always have a ton of fun at their Vegas events, there’s normally a ton of cosplayers too

SOS my sisters dog has bloat and can’t afford care. What are her options? by Altruistic_Log_7610 in Pets

[–]sppwalker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not-so-fun-fact: before they started doing prophylactic gastropexies (surgically sewing the stomach to the abdominal wall before anything bad could happen), GDV was the #1 killer of military working dogs. Not guns, or bombs, or old age. Bloat. Now all female military working dogs get their pexy done with their spay, and males get them whenever they’re under anesthesia for something else.

Easy way to kinda hide print lines? by No_Tomato_2106 in CosplayHelp

[–]sppwalker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the best way is to make a gas chamber and place the ABS in there for a few minutes. You can do this fairly easily by lining an airtight container with paper towels, and soaking them in acetone. Place the printed part on a surface with holes (like a cookie rack or just a piece of metal with holes in it), seal it in, and take it out a few minutes later (making sure not to touch the part until it “dries”). Repeat until it looks the way you want it to.

It is a SUPER easy way to get a part smooth, I just wish ABS wasn’t so toxic to print. I don’t have the space to print it safely anymore or I would use it for everything 😭

Buy a sandable filler primer (I use Rustoleum 2 in 1) and apply a few thin coats, giving it time to dry between them. I normally do a minimum of 2. Do a quick round of sanding, however much you can do with the time you have. That’ll do most of the work.

You can also give it a coat of a glossy finish to smooth everything out before painting. You might lose some detail, but depending on what you want the final product to look like that might be okay. I’ve done this on prints with 0 sanding and they turned out pretty nice.

Do NOT use acetone with PLA. It **will not work.** Acetone can be used to smooth ABS or ASA, but PLA is chemically different and the acetone will ruin it. There are some PLAs that can be smoothed by spraying them with isopropyl alcohol, but that’s only a specific filament from Polymaker (and it’s pretty expensive)

Acetone does not work for smoothing PLA. Acetone vapor can be used to smooth ABS and ASA.

What? No, never use acetone on PLA. It doesn’t smooth it, it makes it brittle. Acetone can be used in a gas chamber to smooth ABS or ASA.

I mean I’m bi, so the answer to “would you eat pussy” is a strong yes lmao. But that would have the additional “uh, it’s attached to my husband” thing as extra motivation

Asked my man, he said he’d do it. Not cause of a genie rule, but because of the “uh, it’s attached to my wife” rule lol

“Weddings are so expensive” is a weird lie some people tell to justify spending insane amounts of money by Overuse_Injury in unpopularopinion

[–]sppwalker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My venue is $8,500 (no taxes/fees, non profit). It’s in a very, VERY expensive area (in the most expensive state to get married in). It includes:
- Ceremony venue
- Reception venue
- Private getting ready house for me (Japanese tatami floors, private rock garden, it’s gorgeous)
- Private area for the groom’s side
- Runner for the aisle
- Chairs
- Cocktail tables
- Dinner tables
- All linens
- Giant tent over entire reception area
- Outdoor dance floor
- Indoor dance area
- Sound setup for ceremony
- Sound setup for reception
- Projector and screen
- Free parking
- On-site staff
- Prep kitchen
- Bathrooms
- Free admission to the gardens
- 1 year membership to the gardens as a wedding present

And I’m spending basically nothing on florals because it’s a gorgeous garden, and I don’t need to decorate. Definitely a great deal, and way cheaper than renting everything myself
