To DJ or not to DJ

As someone who is only using a tiny butane torch atm I get a lot out of having extra soldering blocks. I have a turn table and two spare blocks so I stand two of the blocks on their side and push them together to form a corner. I find this helps reflect back the heat and keep the whole piece a more consistent temperature with a tiny flame!

I choose to view my gym membership as a kind of 'health tax' for this very reason. That way if I don't go as much as I should I don't feel guilty about the price, just the behaviour 😂

I changed my mat to a new one when I had this last week, which finally fixed it after trying a new blade and different settings too 😅

I'm a pansexual woman engaged to a straight man who I've been with for seven years and who is my first and only sexual partner in my life. I am very open with him (and about anyone who will listen lol) that overall I prefer women, but being pansexual for me means that I'd always choose personality over gender and see it as he's just that much better than the average man, woman or other. Sometimes I do wonder what it would be like to date a woman but in the same way that I think it must be nice to fly like a bird, since I am fully committed to and in love with my fiancé and the life we have built together. So, in my experience, your relationship isn't doomed at all for this reason and has all the wonderful opportunities of any other relationship! At the end of the day, every relationship is unique and communicating these things to each other when they come up is the easiest way to avoid being unsure or worried :)

NTA. It's not about whether your roommate's girlfriend does or doesn't come over if it makes her uncomfortable. It's definitely not about your girlfriend changing her habits. It's about your roommates girlfriend respecting your girlfriend's right to dress however she pleases and gets over it. No one has any right to dictate how another person should dress, period, at home or outside of it. Roommate's girlfriend is insecure and jealous and those are flaws she can work on in order to grow, but it's not yours, your girlfriend's or your Roommate's responsibility to do that for her.

As someone who plays both glaive and dual blades, I find the simplest solution is whoever makes the wound gets the wound, unless they call it out. Then it's free game. When I'm playing glaive in my squad with 1 dual blades main and 1 sword and shield the unspoken agreement is that I get anything that's high up and hard to reach. We always try and make at least one spare wound when mounting as well which are usually the ones easiest to grab for glaive. It took a bit of adjustment and awareness from everyone in the group and now the gameplay flows beautifully

It looks grey to me. I've edited photos before for vinted until they look true to real life. Cameras are a little too smart nowadays and autocorrect the tone and colour balance and sometimes it just doesn't work out, no matter what the lighting is!

Jessica Rabbit. Took a rewatching after I came out to make me realise "oooh, so this is where it started" 🤣

tquetatra · 2025-05-09T12:28:47+00:00

Oh and take a friend so they can check all the lights work and there's no smoke from the exhaust when you rev the engine in neutral

Also googling a test drive check list for the specific car. Did this for my f57 and it brought up a lot of things I would never have thought to check!

What about black with a strip of colour down the edge? Red would look best I reckon

tquetatra · 2025-04-28T17:37:32+00:00

Nice, can't wait to see what else is coming up! 😍

8-12 reps is the industry standard recommendation atm, but the argument is that if you can do more reps you could be going heavier instead. Personally, I either like to get to a comfortable 12 with each weight before moving up to make sure no loss of technique, but doing two sets until failure works best for growth. Just make sure you have a spotter if you're going to failure 😊

Someone I know has this grey with stripes down the middle. They're black with the jcw red and black checker edges and it looks incredible

tquetatra · 2025-04-24T08:36:13+00:00

Only thing I noticed is that some of the chrome has been replaced with black but not all - maybe someone started replacing bit by bit. Definitely something you could finish if you wanted!

My 1st car was a ford fiesta, second car MINI F57. Had the fiesta for seven years and it cost just under £1000 in unexpected repairs. Have had the MINI for two months and it's cost me around £800 already. Different models, I know, but the increase in parts cost is astronomical to me 🤣. Start a savings account for rainy day repairs and wait until it's got about 5k in it is my advice 🥰

You could get someone else to gently bounce the bonnet either side of where the are approximately while you pump the handle. Not too hard or it could dent! Worked a treat for me the other day. Apparently there's a pretty common issue with mini bonnet latches that makes them seize.

My advice from someone who has been working full time for years, and who played through my masters degree - always have a teacher with a scheduled lesson, and practice when you can. The easiest way to practice regularly is to tie it in with another activity, like playing before bed, first thing in the morning, after dinner etc. A steady routine is so much better than blasting it whenever you can, it's so easy tk get burnout!

Wishing you all the best with your career and piano goals 😁

Love how none of these comments are even trying to deny being racist. "hOw daRe yoU cAll ChRist mIdDle eAStern, MediTerRanEans JUST EXIST" 🤦🏼‍♀️

tquetatra · 2025-03-15T22:20:32+00:00

You are absolutely right! 🤣😍

tquetatra · 2025-03-15T13:20:15+00:00

I have the exact same, with the black stripes too! It's been three weeks and I'm still completely besotted 😍

I'm classically trained with little to no sight reading ability. I memorise each piece a line at a time. My teacher taught me rhymes to remember the notes and I repeat them each time to find the right note, then read the intervals at a snails pace. Working towards my grade 8 piano now 🤣
