Please help with stain removal!!!! (I'm desperate)

Please help with stain removal!!!! (I'm desperate)

Hi all! I marched mellophone at Tulane University from 2018-2023, and the band recently got new uniforms. The old ones were upcycled into these AWESOME pillows for a fundraiser, so obviously I got one! However, many of the uniforms have stains on them, and mine came stained. It's hard to see, but there are 3-4 spots on the blue.

The jacket cover is removable, but how do I possibly clean this when the stains are god-knows how old? In the past, I've used dishsoap to remove food stains (I know I know, don't eat in uniform), but that was in the moment and before being washed in the laundry. I'm seriously thinking of just contacting the band director to ask him to exchange my pillow for a cleaner one if they still have any, but I don't want to be a nuisance. If I can't do it myself, should I go to a dry-cleaner? Thanks in advance!

How to remove stains from polyester band uniform?

Hi all, my college marching band upcycled our old uniforms into these AWESOME pillows for a fundraiser so I just had to get one! Unfortunately, many of the uniforms are stained. The jacket cover comes off and is washable. I believe they may be oil or food stains, but I haven't washed it yet because I think it needs spot-treatment and I don't want to soak the stain in any more. Please help!!

Does doing the N word in sign language count as saying it, and can only black people do it?

I took ASL throughout high school and college and know what it is, so I was just thinking about this for some reason

Out of bounds in Metropolis!!! A dream come true!

Metropolis is my all-time favorite level in the trilogy, and I've ALWAYS wanted to go up to the big buildings in the back and live in one of them. Huge thanks to u/Lego_city_undercover for showing us the bug to get out of bounds!

RE: "I don't want to be antisemitic, however... Jews...? Money...? Prove me wrong."

In February, I made a post about how my friend said this out of nowhere while our whole friend group was on a week-long reunion trip. Upon confronting him privately, he was apologetic and admitted that he was ignorant and had a lot of unlearning to do. It was very refreshing, and I'm glad that the friendship can be salvaged.

I would love some help finding good and accessible resources to send him! It's been time for us to unlearn together for a while, so I want to finally get started. (Edit: online articles are preferred) Here's what would be helpful:

  1. The origin of the Jews-money stereotype
  2. The rates of poverty among American Jews
  3. Why American Jews are associated with money when most billionaires in the US are Christian
  4. Why money ≠ privilege when it comes to Jews
  5. The importance of Black and Jewish unity
