My husband and I really like Wonderbook. It's a campaign game with several chapters. The theming is a bit childlike sometimes but the mechanics are fun.

Man I'm so excited for the last episode but I'm also sad it will be the last. I hope they resolve the remaining story threads properly but it'll have to be quite compact... Let's see how it turns out

It was definitely some educational game, I'm quite sure it was "Leer 't lekker zelf", edutainment from the Netherlands. You had to subscribe and you got a new disc every two weeks. I just looked it up and people have actually archived it online.

We met via tabletop RPGs and that's what we still do every two weeks but if we're hanging on Discord it's mainly Overwatch but also Wildermyth and Mech Warrior.

Currently playing the Ace Attorney Trilogy! I'm also eagerly waiting for Next Fest to start tomorrow to try out various demos.

Cartoons, plush toys, cute merch (pencils, stickers,...). It always provides a great escape from the beige-gray adulting (tm) everywhere.

This comment could've been written by me, haha! I loved the revival of coloring books in the past few years, there's so many options now.

Currently re-playing the Ace Attorney Trilogy as I got it on Steam during the sale. I played them back in the day on the DS and it's been a blast. I just checked out Jack Jeanne - it seems to have some sort of skill building aspects to it? I've been looking for a stat builder otome but there isn't much out there.

It's a native 1080p. If you're on Facebook, there's a group called "Projectors for sewing" that has a lot of information, they recommend a min. res of 720p. In the US there's a big market of second hand projectors but it's trickier in Europe, which is why I ordered a cheaper new one (Wanbo T2 Max).

Thanks! I'm actually going to swap it out for a Buddha Jewelry Mini Valentina when I downsize. That piece wasn't in stock when I got the piercing so I've been wearing this Industrial Strength Marquise Fan in the meantime. Now the question is what I'll do with the piece... Maybe a second lobe? Or get another one and wear them in my first lobes. Decisions, decisions!

Yes, I did. It was €150 from Banggood. I personally feel the cost is justified because the alternative is printing hundreds of pages and taping those together, which is high in ink cost and opportunity cost (it takes a while).
However, I do primarily (almost exclusively) use digital patterns so I use the thing very often. If you also use regular paper patterns I would imagine the value might be less.

While I won't deny this is a bit disappointing because the ADHD community on lemmy.world seemed to be a decent one, I understand that this decision is you doing the best work you can with the tools you have. Let's hope that the Lemmy codebase can expand to allow for finer granularity.

 

This was my first build but it's the one I like best!

I'm using a cheap projector off BangGood on top of a camera tripod. There's a bit of set-up time every time I want to cut some fabric since I can't mount it to the ceiling but it's still way quicker than printing, taping, and cutting pdf patterns!

Started with the shoddiest collage made in Paint and then ran it through SD.

It's difficult to take pics of a reflective surface :')
I bought the svg files from Etsy, cut using my Silhouette Cameo, assembled it all in a IKEA frame, and added a LED string that I scavenged from an advent calendar from last year.

They're a bit theatrical.

Tiger is our wobbly kitty so he has some special poses and expressions sometimes!

 

Pattern: Twig + Tale Adult Wayfarer Shoes
Fabric: leftover bamboo terry cloth lining and upcycled denim outer

I added some sock stop dots on the bottom to make them less slippery. They're definitely too warm for summer though, I will probably end up making a linen or cotton pair to wear in warmer weather. I'm also going to experiment with thick/rigid interfacing for the soles so they're not as floppy.
