Heres A Life-hack For You.Apparently Concentrated Kool-Aid Can Be Used As A Pretty Effective Leather

Here’s a “life-hack” for you. Apparently concentrated Kool-Aid can be used as a pretty effective leather dye. I was making a drink while cutting the snaps off some new straps for my pauldrons and I got curious, so I tried it, thinking, “ok even if this works, it will just wash out.” Nope. It took the “dye” (undiluted) in about 3 seconds. After drying for about an hour and a half, it would not wash off in the hottest tap-water. It would not wash out after soaking for 30 minutes. It did not wash out until I BOILED it, and even then, only by a tiny bit and it gave it a weathered look that was kind of cool. Add some waterproofing and I’d wager it would survive even that. That rich red is only one application too. Plus it smells great, lol. So there you go, cheap, fruity smelling leather dye in all the colors Kool-Aid has to offer.

I didn’t miss that social cue I just thought it was stupid 

the year is 2023, marie kondo holds j*ff b*zos by the skin on the back of his neck in front of a public gathering

“does this one spark joy?” she shouts at the restless audience, they boo in response

she snaps his spine like .5mm mechanical pencil lead and throws his lifeless corpse to the crowd, they cheer in response

birds whose existence defies gender essentialism

bilateral gynandromorph northern cardinal! the left side of this bird’s body is female, and the other side is male. they can still hypothetically reproduce, as birds (mostly) only have one functioning ovary, on the left side!

bilateral gynandromorph rose-breasted grosbeak! the same case as above, just a different species.

chickens. just all chickens. they can just defy our boundaries of sex.

the white-throated sparrow, which is considered to have four sexes!

the ruff, which also has four distinct sexes! their breeding behavior is really unlike any other bird

ducks, which can also change appearance to show plumage associated with the opposite sex!

this is really just a jumping off point since birds don’t conform generally to human expectations for sex and gender - which is fair since they’re often pretty arbitrary!

your bed is probably as happy to see you as you are to see it. ‘here comes the warmth slab’ it thinks
