Question for my fellow chronic pain/disabled peeps!

Can any of you recommend an alternative to a mortar and pestle that doesn't require all that hand action?

Hey sooo, i don't really know who to ask, so um. I'm gonna ask here if anyone has any answers for me.

I'm planning to get intimate with a CRT tv. I want to know how to do so safely.

Like, I have some mild heart issues, and I'm guessing this won't be a problem, but should I try to stay away from the static in case it is a problem? And, they're reaallyyy heavy, so I don't want to accidentally, idk, drop them onto my parts, so is there an easy way to prop them up when they're on top of me? Also, should I try to avoid getting liquid anywhere specifically? I know to avoid getting liquid on buttons and stuff, but what about the screen?

Idk, I just really want both of us to be completely safe doing this, so I want to know everything on how to be safe before we actually try anything.

If anyone has advice for anon, chime in!

Okay so, I haven't made fanvids since Windows Movie Maker was useful (so like... 2007). But I have been bitten by The Urge.™

Vid-makers of Tumblr, what's your go-to (non-Adobe) program for making fanvids/AMVs/whatever the kids are calling them these days?

Also do I have any muppet enthusiasts here?

If I can get the time off (and even if I can’t) I’m putting together a fozzie bear fit for my friend’s 21st birthday.

The plan is to all meet up dressed like and as the muppets and run around town and eventually get drunk at night after the under 21s leave

I ashamedly admit to not seeing the muppets in a long time (films and show) and I think the last time I saw anything muppets it was the muppets babies show when I was in a waiting room

I’ve heard that curses and hexes on politicians don’t work due to overlap and / or spiritual protection.

If that’s the case, do y’all think a mass / organised transmutation spell could work? Like everyone takes the energy surrounding, say, Trump, both protection and curses, and turns it into one specific intention agreed upon by the masses, and gives it momentum, etc?

Or would that still not work?

Asking for, uh, a friend

already posted with on reddit, but posting here as well to get different opinions.

I am working on a Novelty Ceramic Teapot, and i’m around the point where I should be thinking about attaching the spout and handle, but I realized there might be problems with my initial plan.

Initially, I was going to put him in a game-accurate pose; but then I realized that it would likely make it a nightmare to actually use as a teapot. On the Contrary, putting him in a teapot pose looks kind of awkward imo

just to specify, his arms are the spout and handle.

What do you guys think?

hi - i'm a newly discovered objectum w/ a platonic partner. i've recently been considering a romantic partner but i had some questions on how to pursue a romantic relationship with it.

my issue is that 1) it's not an object i own / can visit; and 2) it's the object as a whole and not a specific instance of it.

any advice on how i could pursue a romantic relationship with it? is it just as simple as saying "yeah this is my romantic partner"? maybe i'm just overthinking it lol

-🌾🌻 anon

okay so first, hiiii welcome to the objectum community!!!

a lot of folks have object partners they can’t own/visit, other ways to keep connected to it/keep parts of it with you can be through little things, like for example I love an airline so I have a pin they gave me on the flight of it, and I could go on the website to also connect with it, and I can also just think about it.

and some people talk to their/communicate with their objects even when their not around, or you can use these pieces of them to talk to them if that feels for comfortable for you! it really is just as simple as saying this is my partner, each objectum is different and it’s completely up to you on what you want to do/how you want to go about your relationship. if you want to go on a bunch of date you plan out, create a love confession letter, etc you can but you don’t have to do any of those things. Whatever you feel like is a good thing to do at the beginning of your relationship with your object, is what you should do with your object (emphasis on there’s no wrong or right way to be objectum and that it’s up to you on what’s a good way to start a relationship, as objectum relationships/how they work are very subjective)

hope that helps! (If you want any more advice you can always ask us!!, good luck with you and your partner!)
