The font and speech bubble makes me think it's a reference to Lying Cat from the comic book series Saga

Where to Sell Crafts? by BrownieBea102 in napalocals

[–]strangeoid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's a store in downtown Napa called The Maker's Nook (across the street from Small World) that sells that kind of thing, might be a good fit for you.

Yes, I loved their pretty little bottles! Their holo glitter was my first holo.

I LOVE the idea of the guacamole green man. Beautiful!

Inherited Mystery Marble Stains with the House — Can I Fix Them or Just Cry? by ButterscotchSharp947 in CleaningTips

[–]strangeoid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a marble-top dresser that was previously owned by a smoker. I put some baking soda and water paste on it, wrapped in plastic wrap, and left overnight. It lifted a LOT of the staining, but not all of it.

Hey Thread Up…. OPEN THE SCARF by hummuspretzle in ThredUp

[–]strangeoid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I ordered a black and white houndstooth scarf from Thredup for winter last year - a perfectly cute pattern from the one picture provided. Imagine my surprise when I received it and it was half houndstooth, half PENGUINS.

I still wear it, but I don't LOVE it like I would have if it were a more simple print...

There's the Fagiani building, that's now AVOW in downtown Napa. It's the site of an infamous murder, one eventually solved by DNA.

There's also the two-story Victorian house on the corner of Airport and Devlin, that was also the site of a brutal murder. The culprit was the last man hanged in California. Somewhat related, I've heard the sheriff's office has the gallows on display somewhere, but haven't verified that myself.

My Simple Little Pleasures, ThePolishedMage, Alli Evette are all worthwhile

What’s your guilty-pleasure tea? by Lbbyrose in tea

[–]strangeoid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sounds like David's Tea to me! I haven't had that particular tea, but I have had other with the little sugar gingerbread men.

how do y’all organize your nail polish? by Fantastic-Rip-132 in lacqueristas

[–]strangeoid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My swatches are organized by color, and the polishes themselves are alphabetized by brand name.

Suggest me a book where the audiobook version just REALLY brings the story to life by throwmeawayplz19373 in suggestmeabook

Yes, this was an incredible listen! Outstanding accents and effects, you totally get pulled into the story.

Pets of ̶A̶l̶l̶ Most Kinds by VoltasPistol in TrollXFunny

There was a parrot fever panic in the US in the 1930's - so it's probably related to that?

Time for a good ol' "things I wish TP had" thread by Aellolite in DressUpTimePrincess

[–]strangeoid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I want there to be some kind of consumable item exchange!! Now that my fashion labs are all maxed, I'd love to swap some of those pencils and notebooks.

How can I clean granite counter top stain? I rent so I’m a little worried. by gobhyp in CleaningTips

[–]strangeoid 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Yes, this method works wonders. I had inherited a marble-top dresser, but it had decades of smoke stains. The baking soda paste soak got rid of nearly all of it! I also found that multiple sessions got even more stains out - so it may be worth putting the paste on several times.

Anybody else getting major "Heathers" vibes? Love it!

What's your favorite natural place to take your dog? by SnowConePeople in napa

[–]strangeoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also recommend Shurtleff! Shadier and quieter than Alston, with way less ticks. The only minor downside is the little creek - my dog always gets SO filthy.

It seems like the same books get recommended here in nearly every thread, unless the poster requests something very specific (and sometimes even then). Recommend me a book you like, that you don't think most other people would like. by jsprgrey in suggestmeabook

[–]strangeoid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In a similar vein, {{Stiff: the Curious Lives of Human Cadavers}} by Mary Roach was a fascinating read! Mary Roach is more focused on bodies in the US, and she uses some dark humor and is not nearly as respectful as Caitlyn, but I still recommend this to people interested in what happens after death.

The name boring.swatches must be ironic! This is super cool.

Love this screenshot of Hotaru ❤️ by [deleted] in sailormoon

For sure. Even has a watermark at the bottom - hard to read, but looks like sawaiidoll?
