No but seriously. Normalize finding love in your 40's. Normalize discovering and chasing new dreams in your 30's. Normalize finding yourself and your purpose in your 50's. Life doesn't end at 25. Let's stop acting like it does.
Thanks, I always mess up those early periods <3, sorry for the confusion
Does anyone who has access to Chinese websites could help me find a pattern for a warring states period hanfu? I would really appreciate it <3 <3 <3
Transcribing thoughts into words is so hard. Can we just touch foreheads and I send the vibes directly?
One thing they don’t tell you about sewing is that it is actually ironing
I meant 曲裾, sorry should’ve clarify.
(I can’t find the source of the drawing, but it raised even more questions how it was made ;-;)
I can’t figure out how does it accommodate the hips but then is narrow and then wide again

Apparently in China peach wood (Along with the rest of the plant) is believed to have properties that repel evil spirits, a little similar to silver in European legends or iron for both European fae and West Asian/Middle eastern Jinn. Taoists sometimes keep swords made of peach wood because of this. This made me realize something. If you took a peach wood stick, and attached studs to it of both silver and iron you'd end up with a club or staff (or mace, flail etc.) that would have the weaknesses of many kinds of supernatural creatures while still retaining effectiveness as a normal weapon (peach is a hardwood and silver's poor edge retention doesn't matter for studs). You could even keep adding new stud materials to get something ridiculous that affects over 120 catalogued folkloric monsters. Since you just need a few little studs you could even get some really expensive materials like meteoric iron (a thumb tip sized meteorite can still cost like 10-20 bucks I think). I could somewhat feasibly make a weapon that affects every monster ever thought to walk the earth, from vampires and werewolves to jinn and jiangshi and even mankind.
Jurassic world would be pleasurable if only the frequency of frames focusing on the female mc oiled boobs wouldn’t increase so much as the story progresses
Fr, learn to sew. It also helps to reduce your wardrobe only to garments that you absolutely love 💕
Let sewing radicalize you against fast fashion
