Nobody talks about the southern lapwing either

Also! Also! Use good thread. I've had zero jams since i switched over to a better quality thread. Is it more expensive? Yes. Does it save me time and money on repairs and time lost to my machine being in the shop or me fighting with the machine? Oh god yes.

Not to mention the time it takes to untangle a jammed machine. Dear lord...

This is really, really good advice. My machine was pretty much unusable even after sending it for maintenance due to jamming, until I bought nicer thread and never had that problem again. I use gutermann thread and it's cheaper than all the fabric that would be torn up by jammed stitches

I forced myself to use clips due to constantly stabbing myself with pins and found them very pleasant to use, especially with thick fabric that gets flatter with clips or things that I'll be checking the fit as I go. But most importantly they're cute

Goodness gracious he is indeed LARGE
Now I understand people not believing he's 6 months old lol

Mine is a little (beaten up from old age) amongus

That cat looks like he drove to the contest himself

To-scale??? Did I read this right?

Yes

What keeps me away from AAA is how most are $200+ in my currency, how the never ending obssesion with having "the best graphics" also means they are designed to only run in the most expensive hardware commercially available, and most importantly how most of them are completely unoriginal

A plushie and a terrarium. I also usually put my working corner near a window so I can see the birds outside

"I like this" is actually a very good compliment

This is incredible. The two faced beast analogy always works so well to describe that feeling, being eternally held hostage and demanded to see it as mercy

Pitbulls are only a "dangerous breed" if you intend on mistreating them.
This is the same reason why so many small dogs are agressive, people with no respect of boundaries will raise them horribly and think the resulting agression is cute or funny, but are scared when a bigger dog does the same

No dog breed is inherently violent towards humans, and all dogs have the potential to be agressive when provoked. Pitbulls and such just happen to be very strong and heavy, so the consequences of mistreatment are greater. That profiling is uneducated at best and ill intentioned at worst

My entire adult life has been just fixing 18 years of all sorts of neglect lol

What a strange looking mop
