It's my first try at something like this

I was unpacking some boxes and found my late grandma's figure thing was broken and this is my favorite I didn't think I would actually be able to do it I have been practicing my fine motor skills the last couple of year I think it's because of my autism I couldn't even tie my shoes cut a straight line or right legibility till high school but I have been working really hard i didn't buy a kit because they seemed expensive and my dad has a workshop in the garage whith most of what I needed I tried liquid epoxy but I didn't like it because it dried to fast and was harder to remove if I make a mistake so I am using super glue and then going over everything whith epoxy sculpt then I mix yellow paint whith gold Mica power and a bit of clear glue and paint it on. Before the paint drys I dab on Mica powder I'm also using all these tools that kind of look like there from a dentist office to scrape off excess paint or glue I'm not sure if any of this is recommended because I kinda went whith the flow instead of following a tutorial im not finished yet but I should be in the next few days then I can show my mom and I know she will be really proud of me and I'm already super proud of myself I don't know why but if feels like a huge accomplishment it feels like the first time I read my first chapter book on my own when I was 13

Were to find modest cloths that keep you cool

Im not Muslim but I really respect Islam. I am an American woman and I have a really hard time finding cloths I can wear I have autism which causes me to not be able to wear tight cloths or cloths whith ruff material it also causes me to be very very sensitive to heat I also like to have my legs covered... So its basically impossible for me to find cloths so I'm wondering were do Muslim women shop for modest affordable cloths that keep you cool and also is it ok for me to wear those cloths or would it be cultural appropriation

How do you dry curls naturally

Every video I see about curly hair the people use a diffuser but I don't own one and I also have autism so the noise would be to much for me and I can't leave it down to dry because the feeling of wet hair whith gel in it before puting oil in it is a sensory nightmare so I put my hair in a hair net and wrap a little scarf thing to keep everything in place i wasn't able to find online other people doing this and I was wondering is there a reason why and what do other people do to dry there hair without a hair dryer

Were would you go and what type of people would you like in your group

I was thinking about the zombie apocalypse last night and thought what I would do I'm not a big zombie fan or a dooms day prepared type of person so I was wondering what y'all think of this so if it were the zombie apocalypse I'm going to Alaska or upper Canada were it's really cold and the population density is low assuming I'm able to get there the type of group I'm looking to get into or find is a Inuit tribe or any kind of native tribe because they know how to hunt and live in the area and they know how to hunt wale and wale and other large fish are supper important for survival one of the biggest problems in a zombie apocalypse is food. they would also know how to make and use weapons that aren't guns which I feel are really overrated for a zombie apocalypse I also feel like axe's are overused and not practical ( sorry for any grammar or spelling mistakes I have learning disabilities)

My dad has been collecting WW2 stuff his entire life and we have more stuff them most museums natzi weapons , badges , arm bands, pins ,stamps, letters, magazines today I was looking through the photos and letters he has and I found some interesting things we had to take down and put away his collection because we were having people fix the floor and whenever we have people over to fix things my parents have us take or cover everything so it doesn't make them uncomfortable or think we are crazy people
