How do y'all feel about shapeshifters transforming into animals without a human or humanoid top half, but they can still speak human? I just realized i never once thought about if they could do that in my story until today.

Up until today i didn't have a reason for them to talk or not talk in animal form. I would just write they are fighting and then turn back into a human. Example should a weredragon or animal shifter talk in animal form?

Note: yes i know biologically animals (except for parrots and such) could never use human speech because their vocal cords aren't set up like that, but my story just like yallz are magical. So what do yall think? Yay or nay.

OMG i cannot take this anymore. I will never buy a singer again. Long story short, my first sewing machine back around 2009 was a brother xl2600i and weirdly it still works. I use it as backup whenever my signer starts acting up or when im waiting for my new singer to ship to me.

My first singer 4411 was bought from joanns in jan 2023 and it lasted until aug 2025. Then i bought a 2nd 4411 and that conked out of me right away so I returned it. Then i bought the singer 44s in aug 2025 cuz it was a few bucks cheaper at walmart. And within only a few months the 44s started acting hella crazy. It was behaving like the singer 4411 at the 2 year mark. So i bought another 44s and just switched the machines and return the orginal on as it was within 90 days.

Its been whatever every since then. but now in aug 2026 it will not act right at all. And I wanna scream because this is driving me crazy trying to figure out whats wrong with it everyday. I wasted like 5 hours a few days ago trying to sew one project that takes way less than 5 hours to finish because majority of that time i was spent trying to fix the dang machine. Couldn't even finish the project. Had to go to bed to cool off.

So sorry for the rant but before i buy one of those $1000 industrial machines that claim according to google is great for heavy duty daily use i wanna get a recommendation from actual people who use these machines. Not a google ai generated response from the people who pay google to say their machine is best.

I sew basically everyday. And i sew a lot of layers together. Heavy duty stuff like pvc, outdoor canvas, pu, and thick marine vinyl. So i need something that can handle all of that. Great for constant commercial/business use because these $200-$300 machines aren't cutting it anyone. If i did the math, if i buy one more $300 machine that is basically the same $1000 price tag i could have spent from the beginning. 🤦🏾‍♀️

So please suggest away and why. Thanks my fellow sewers.

Question for my humanoid species lovers out there.

So I am soooooo close to finishing naming all of my different humanoid species in my world. Some i made up myself like the Aragumo (r-ruh-goo-moe aka spider people) and some I borrowed from other cultures like the encantado (brazil - dolphin people). And i am so hyped.

Anyways, i have two left that needs an official name (maybe 3). I want to rename my dwarfs and my elementalist (and titans aka my giant people) with a name thats isn't an official name from any culture and also sounds made up, but still fits the description of who they are. It can sound like a name of a people or of a country. i am using both concepts interchangeably. So all people/countries in my world are referred to as "kingdom of the blank".

So "Kingdom of Arugumo" or "Kingdom of the Encantados." and the word 'the' would be included or not included based on how it sounds.

My dwarfs are soooooo not like dwarfs, and i don't wanna use brownies or gnomes and etc either. Too different. They got super speed (more dash from incredibles than flash from dc), a powerful seismic punch and are very good at building and inventing.

Elementalist is more of a power name vs a name for a group of people of a culture. Plus my elementalist can also alter the weather. They can affect the traditional four elements along with electricity, storms, clouds, etc. This is their vibe.

So i just need help with a name for these two. Buuuuut i have been doubting calling my giants 'titans.' I don't like giants because thats just a height description and i do like the word titan but now i am thinking maybe it doesn't sound like "a people or society" so maybe i wanna change that too or maybe i'll just keep it. Any suggestions on a cool species/country name for dwarfs, elementalist and maybe titans/giants.

I have called the non emergency 911 on these people so many times and i'm not even sure if an officer came out each time. They keep blasting music with this giant ass boombox outside all hours of the day and night. weekends, weekdays. it doesn't matter. And god forbid theres a holiday they wanna blast this ish all day long.

The volume is literally, and i'm not even joking, club volumed. like its so loud if i wanna talk to anyone in my own house i have to shout to speak to them. INSIDE...MY...OWN...HOUSE. And whenever they wanna talk to each other you know what they do? They turn down the f**king music so low i can barely hear it and all i hear is them talking to each other. Then when their two minute conversation is over then turn it right back up again. so basically they can turn it down to talk to each other but the rest of neighborhood isn't allowed to talk to anyone in their own house without shouting.

I don't watch tv on tv anymore. i stream on my computer and i kid you not i HAVE TO, like i literally HAVE TO play any sound on my computer through my speaker to only kinda hear any show i am watching. And ON MAX VOLUME. And its still hard to hear whatever i am watching. like what is wrong with these people? I've told them more than once over the years to turn it down. and the music goes down for that day but only at that time only, then its right back up again.

I have so much rage for these people. like i fantasy about doing bad things to them, but then i remember i ain't built for jail. I can't fight. So please someone can you tell me what can i do to stop this madness. i don't like thinking negatively or violently. it goes against my nature.

What else can i do besides call the non emergency number because these people won't stop. we don't live in a rich area, so i think making them pay really high fines would be the only way to stop them, but apparently the police won't do that.
