I think it probably wasn't as creepy when it had clothes and all it's hair and wasn't all dirty lol
It's too easy to ignore these temptations if I have to go out and aquire them myself with my own money lol
I think some clarification may be needed for an appropriate answer. Who is "we" and which of the numerous atrocities currently going on anywhere in the world are "we" not "fighting back" against?
Some specificity is needed here.
Well that's not very descriptive! "A moustache" could mean almost anything lol
I move into the store permanently and then die of a heart attack after about a month. I imagine I would have no regrets.
It's yet another treasure from the boxes in my mom's attic that she insisted were all garbage that should be thrown away lol
I didn't call anyone a pedophile, I just said he has a pedophile moustache. What would you call it?
I have one cup of coffee per day and maybe one soda if I need it later. If I have any more caffeine than that I feel like I'm going to jump out of my own skin
I used to rent this tiny little house from an elderly couple a little over a decade ago. It was their first house when they got married in the late 40s and they'd been renting it out since they moved to a bigger house in the 50s. In all that time the refrigerator has been replaced ONCE in like 1968 and that fridge still worked perfectly when I moved out lol
That pedophile moustache is not doing him any favors...
I'd say the real concern here is that someone is spending over $30 at Burger King. For that much I could have gone somewhere good.
Those little flowers took a while to finish but I'm really happy with how they came out! I think by the end of today I'll be able to finally move on to the next section!
This section is taking a while since there's so much confetti stitching between the pink sections! Hopefully by the end of the week this part will look like flowers lol!
Once I finish the first half of No Faces mask and the bottom where Chihiro's shirt is I can finally move on to the side sections!
This is just what I keep on me when I'm at home being lazy lol

I've been a Slayer fan for nearly 30 years now, and as a guitar player Kerry King has been one of my heroes since I was a teenager, so I went into this with high hopes.
I'm sure you've all heard some reviews already calling the whole project "Slayer Lite" and I can't completely disagree with that, but I really feel it's not entirely fair, and I will clarify that as I go through the good, the bad, and the "meh" of this album.
Let's get the bad out of the way first. This is mostly just a Slayer album. As much as I love Slayer I was really hoping for something more from this solo outing. The part that really kind of irritates me the most is that it's not even a cohesive Slayer album. Some tracks sound like modern Slayer, some like 90s Slayer when they flirted with nu metal, and my favorites sounded like classic 80s thrash era.
What we've ended up with sounds more like a collection of Slayer B-sides and unreleased tracks that goes on a little longer than it probably should. While they are all definitely good songs, there's really not much here I haven't heard before. The guitars sound like Slayer, the drums sound like Slayer, the bass sounds like Slayer, even the singer sounds like Tom Araya with a sore throat.
Wow, I really used the word "Slayer" a lot there...
That's really it for anything negative I can say about it, so let's move on to the positive!
There are a number of tracks on here where you can actually hear Kerry King very tentatively trying to step out of his comfort zone a little, and that kept me engaged enough to listen to the whole thing. Mostly these were little things that I think would have been vetoed on a regular Slayer release. There are some neoclassical riffs, a couple of tracks lean a little more punk which I really liked, I think I even heard a little blues lick here and there!
I wouldn't call any track on here bad! I enjoyed all of them individually even if they don't necessarily add up to something that sounds like an "album" as a whole! If you were really wanting more Slayer after the last album you won't be disappointed!
My final conclusion is that this is an album written by a man who has played the same type of music with the same band for 40+ years, and is not yet really sure how to branch out on his own. If he makes another one, and I hope he does, I'd like to hear him go completely off the deep end and play something totally unexpected that he always wanted to do but couldn't because it didn't sound "Slayer" enough.
My final grade is 3 inverted crucifixes out of 5

Working on finishing Yubaba's son (in his mouse form)! He looks a bit like a zombie mouse right now, but that will change once I finish the eyes lol
After a little over a year of stitching now I still feel like a bit of a noob, but I'm pretty comfortable with the basics. These parts of patterns still give me some problems though!
My strategy is usually to just do all of one color then move on to the next filling in the gaps as I go, but when it gets down to filling individual stitches surrounded by a bunch of finished stitches it gets quite cramped and sometimes those final stitches end up looking pretty rough.
Is there some really obvious method of doing this that I'm missing? Does anyone else use a different approach?
