Terrible news about Tobias

I have some very sad news to share.

Whilst riding my bike home from school yesterday, I forgot to zip my bag properly. I hadn't realised at the time, but Tobias had shifted and fallen out. I only realised a few hours later, and by then it was dark.

I've gone back to check my entire path twice now, but sadly he's nowhere to be found.

I've put up a few facebook posts and told people to have a look out, but I know he sells for quite a bit and have a terrible feeling that he's not coming back.

I'm about to go have another look, but I am beginning to loose hope. I'm really upset, as I saved up for ages and have brought him everywhere with me for weeks since I got him.

Send luck that he is found, if anyone in Australia sees a suspicious listing with him please do tell me

Thanks 💔

Teenage Relationship advice wanted (good)

I [17f] had a boyfriend [18m]. We've been dating for around 1.5 months, but have known each other for over 4 years. We are both autistic

I've never really been good with physical contact. Not for a long time anyway. In primary school I was clingy, which ended up with me being severly bullied and harassed, and now I tend to flinch at most forms of contact.

Boyfriend and I have been working on it. At first it was just an arm around me for a few moments here and there, usually while he explains his cool history facts to me. In the last month my tolerance has built up significantly. Last night we slept together for the first time, and spent the whole night intertwined.

I never really got the phrase 'butterflies in your stomach', because what i feel is more like little elecric daggers. Also I apparently have a very dumb looking smile and my face is bright red. What do i do to make the zappy knives stop? As enjoyable as it is, I have school to go to and wont be able to focus with it.

I don't understand this feeling but I want to because its nice

please help 😭

Thanks Goodnight

Clothing recycling project - pattern assistance

Hello!

I am currently trying to complete my year 12 community project on fabric recycling. I was donated a pair of old, stretched out jeans, and want to turn them into a cute circle skirt as seen above. I was wondering if anyone would be able to assist me with the pattern creation/finding, as I'm having some trouble finding what I'm looking for.

I've been sewing since I was 11, so just shy of 7 years now. I've mostly done soft toys, but dabbled in clothing making for cosplays

Any help would be much appreciated,

Thanks!

Accurate and trusted translation places

Hello! My apologise if this is not the right place to ask this. I am a writer, mediocre and not know outside of maybe 30 people who read my story online.

In my story, the characters are currently traveling through Australia (World tour with some American style magic mixed in).

Is there any place to get an accurate translation into any [preferably from the rainforest in Queensland: Kuku Yalanji, Yirrganydji, ect] languages?

It will just be for one name of one character, and it will be used only for one instance, but the thought of getting it wrong worries me because I don't want to misrepresent anyone.

Eg of sentence:

"[Name here], that's what they would call him. Long ago..."

Sorry again if this isn't the right place!

Complaining about OOC... when OOC warning is in the tags, summary, and start of the chapter

I hate when this happens! I'm writing a fic for a small ish dying fandom, and theres been one person who's commented on every single chapter. Great person, but keeps bringing up the fact that a lot of it is OOC.

No duh its out of charecter! You had to read it 4 times before starting each chapter!

I know its not a big deal and I should be happy for a non-botted comment, but its pissing me off. Thats all they've talked about for the last 2 chapters...

Difficulty of this design

Hey all!

I'm about to make my second head/paws/tail set, and was wondering if this would be too difficult for a second attempt. I really like toucans, and decided to do one in fun colours. Would I be better off making a Toco toucan one? And if its printed in TPU, how would I do the beak?

I thought a bird would be easier since last time the hardest part was the ears

What does this mean fellas

It started on a rainy day, it looked like I was in a park/forest but my school was also there. My friends and I were around 13, and we were playing (climbing trees, running around, swinging off street signs[?]).

​

I fell off a tree with one of my friends, and landed hanging upside down off a street sign. A younger version of a friend [codename: Borat] was smiling and laughing at me.

​

I asked "hey, since we're young again, have you gotten your interest in history yet?"

​

He nodded in reply, and helped me down. I asked him about the geneva convention, and before he could reply the school bell rang.

​

Instead of going to class, all of my friends went to the foyer outside the school gym/theatre building. We were all our right age again [17/18], and the band was setting up a concert just out side. My little siblings were playing, and begged me to watch. Borat smiled and waved bye, then he dissapeared.

​

I watched a song before getting bored, walking up a giant hill that was now behind me. At the top was a fence. Past the fence was just fog, pure white and immpoible to see furter then a few steps.

​

I sat down at the fence, looking down to watch my siblings from afar. Borat tapped my shoulder from just outside the fence, smiling even though his face was gone (covered by the fog).

​

I ran along the fenceline, trying to find a way to him, but eventually fell down and hurt my knees. Borat sat down beside me, took his blaser off, and put it around me. I leaned on his shoulder, watching mt siblings while safe and warm, then I was surrounded by the fog.

​

​

Then I woke up and felt really confused. Please help
