  • I’m self taught. I can’t tell you the names of the stitches I do. I just try until it works. I’ve also never used a sewing machine lol

    There are heaps of resources to learn from, heaps of yt tutorials and websites, the other place has plenty of communities ready to help as well. It’s a great skill to have! I’d much rather repair the clothes I love and repurpose others as fabric, than to buy new. If I buy clothes, it’s from Brunswick Savers or an Op Shop (NOT salvos tho!!).

    I did a blanket stitch (https://www.instructables.com/Sewing-Blanket-Stitch-Coasters/) which is super easy, to hem my jorts. And then I did a another stitch above it, that I have found out is very similar to the backstitch in embroidery (again also so so easy), but involve looping like the blanket stitch.

    When I’m not drunk and tired, I will upload a smol video to show you, because these stitches are very strong and very easy and it will help with repairs and to get you started :3





  • The Creep Tapes season 2 has started and I remember who my villain-crush is.

    Edit:

    this man can terrorise and murder me any fucking day 🥵🥵🥵

    Watching Mark Duplass being a creepy and chaotic murder goblin makes me very, very hot and I don’t know why. But he’s just as good in season 2, and I see season 3 is coming out next year.

    I need to go back and watch the Creep films again.

    Funnily, I saw Mark Duplass is in a current tv show with Jennifer Aniston (it’s called The Morning Show), and he’s won awards for his performance. I’m very happy for him, and part of me wants to watch it because Mark is a great actor, but I also don’t him as anything but the Creep 😂

    Anyway, that’s my Sunday Morning Crush Gush. You may continue with your scheduled programming.










  • I should have clarified sorry! They think they are the aristocracy/high class, and therefore require a way to show everyone else their status.

    I didn’t mean to imply that they are, in fact, aristocracy lol! Just that they think they are.

    And pedophiles have been in the upper echelons of power and wealth for many millennia (Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome, are well known examples), it isn’t new. Positions of power are sought after by those who would use the position to abuse and use others. 120 Days of Sodom by Marquis de Sade (written 1785, published 1904) is, amongst other things, a commentary on lengths the elite will go to explore and perform their perversions, the corruption of society starting at the top the chain, and how people in powerful positions will always abuse those they perceive to be less than human, or less worthy. And that was written in 1785.

    There are good people and bad people of all classes, races, wealth status, gender, sex, political affiliation, whatever. But those who desire and would perform their perversions gravitate towards positions of power, so they can get away with their activities will little to no repercussions. Presently, the US “aristocracy” is full of pedophiles and abusers, rapists and nihilists, their president is all four of those things. They are literally enacting a coup, to retain power, to remove “undesirables”, and to keep their ability to abuse people free of consequences.



  • It’s a status symbol. The women with mar-a-lago face, Republican face, etc are part of the aristocracy. Their face is the symbol of their status. Plastic surgeons will advertise this look as “refined”, “sophisticated”, and “aristocratic”.

    These people are some of the wealthiest people in the US and the world, and they want to look different from the peasants they underpay and abuse.

    Similar to how aristocracies of the past would speak French, and peasants spoke more Germanic languages, generally speaking.
