- I love your avatar. <3 <3 <3
My favorite colors are varied. I like most of them. I hate brown, orange, gold, yellow, silver, and white, though.
My favorite colour seems to change from time to time, at the moment I really love green, especially the green that malachite stones do have.
For Minty
Actually I love both! My bed room has a balcony in front of it and the sound of rain hitting the balcony is my best medicine for a deep sleep.
I also love walks in the rain, both with and without umbrella. Sometimes I just want to feel rain on my skin, it gives me a good feeling.
For Ulalena
Oh wow, you are so talented, I love the teddy bears, they look just precious. <3
It's purple for me as well, especially deep purple, and burgundy. There are just so gorgeous, I've always been drawn to them.
What is your favourite colour? I don't think I've had a favorite color past the age of 10....they all have a purpose or use and all can work depending on the situation. Though for clothes, I prefer mediume to dark cool-tones (blue and purple primarily, but green is fine too) and black and you'll almost never, outside of nail polish/nail art, catch me wearing pastels, or pink or white.
For Minty
Nope. I get a quick breakfast before work, a coffee between jobs, and water when I go on break at the second job. And then dinner.
I 100% prefer my second job (working at JoAnn Fabrics) over my first (primarily janitorial at a small local museum). And yeah, working in a museum always impresses people, but it's really not that amazing. At least not if you're a janitor.
Of course the other job wouldn't normally appeal to me either as it's primarily jist cashiering, but I also get to talk to people about crafts, which has been really fun.
Also in regards to possibly expanding to more controversial topics: I think most people in here just answer the question for themselves, but we aren't really discussing it with anyone else except for you. At least that's what I've noticed the main trend seems to be. So I think it may be alright so long as everyone agrees to still remain civil. It might be worth testing at least. I think most of the people I've met online have actually been really open minded and accepting of others, regardless of just about anything. Though politics seem to still be a very divisive subject. And if a question seems to invasive to anyone, well...they could simply decline to answer/skip answering for that day. shrug

Thank you! blushes Pauline, the one with the yellow apron, was the first I made back then. Then, I improved a bit, LOL. However, it takes months to make one, many many different steps to do.
What is your favourite colour?
For the vast majority of my life, dark blues were my favorite color, however, in recent years, I've found my favorite color has changed. I'm drawn more towards brighter greens (not quite lime) or deep emerald greens. Though I still love blue in all it's shades, I just find greens much more comforting and relaxing now.

(this is p late, sorry about that!) Thank you for the warm welcome and kindness - I appreciate it! I was able to hop outdoors for a few hours, and it was absolutely wonderful. I'm currently waiting for another opportunity to hop outdoors after the heat wave. Hope you had a blast with your blackberry creation!
As for the heaviness of questions, I've only participated in the one question so far, but I feel that keeping things on the lighter end may be better in general for us these days. Or, maybe some more profound questions, but not argument-inducing, if that makes sense? I am not a regular follower though, so my two cents.
Favorite colors are white and taupe :)
Atomic
Yes! :-)
Nowadays, I seldom sew some, even when a mini bear from 4 inch.
It's so much hours of work.
I made Pauline (whos is named after my grandma) by confering with one of Germany's greatest teddy bear makers, my now friend Franzi. She told me all about the basics and talked me through the important steps of teddy bear designing by phone! Later, she visited me some times and showed me some techniques in natura, for example the hardest parts of teddy bear making, doing the ears and getting a nice look and stitching the noses.
Not all designs are mine, some are also others and I changed a bit here and there, for example Benito (the caramel one) is a design from Sylvia Gilles, one of our most successfull designers around. There was a contest where fifty people sewed Benito (his design name), changing only a bit here and there to give him an individual touch. Then, they were photographed all together, my Benito, too, and were the center article of a teddy bear newspaper. I was so proud, LOL.
This is Franzi's webpage, she makes the most beautiful little bears with the most unique face:
and this is the Gilles bears website: GILLESBEARS
Today's question:
Do you do some sort of sports?
My personal answer:
Not much anymore. I used to play football until like 3 years ago and I used to ride horses before that and before that I did rope skipping. But now I just occasionally do some home workouts, yoga or go for a run. I'm pretty lazy to be honest 😂
Repost: I love me a good discussion, however, I have stayed away from more controversial topics to keep the atmosphere light and breezy here. But since I prefer democratic decision-making and this isn't a dictatorship, I'd like to hear your opinion on the matter. Would you like more controversial questions such as "What do you think about drugs" or "What is your take on abortion" or "How is your mental health?" Do you perceive stuff like this as too invasive or would you feel like there could arise conflicts or discrimination from questions like these? (Or maybe even get me in trouble with the subeta team?) Otherwise, I figured, I would make a Random Question Xtreme version in order for people to be able to choose the light edition or the extreme edition when it comes to Random Question.
for rainbowcat
Oh no! That doesn't sound good :( Are you looking to do something else or are you ok with what you currently have?
Thank you for the feedback! <3
for Katastrophy
Thank you so much for the offer! I'd love to take you up on it <3 I'll send you a comment soon so that we can work out the details ok? :)
for ohwellheythere65
aww thanks dear! <3
for StarrySky
Welcome! Thanks for joining in :)
for pies
Welcome! Thanks for joining in! :)
for ulalena
That is unbelievably amazing! You are super good at making teddies! How did you get the idea to sew teddies? After all it's a very seldom and unique skill, isn't it?
for Seven
For me, there is nothing more soothing than the sound of rain hitting a tent while you lie inside, all curled up in a sleeping bag. Only thinking of it gives me this warm fuzzy feeling inside <3
for HatterLi
Happy birthday! I hope you have a wonderful day <3
for you
I'm glad you got to enjoy your time outside! I hope it will cool down a little, soon. Thanks! We picked like 10 kilos of blackberries and now I don't know what to do with all of them xD I think I'll freeze the ones which were left over from making jam.
Thank you so much for your feedback, it's highly appreciated. I'll try to go for more profound ones which should avoid arguments. If you have any suggestions, I'd love to get some input :)
for morgen
Retaining faith in humanity is a challenge for sure... Humans are garbage. Everyone of us. But seeing that there are a few trying to be less garbagy fills my heart with joy <3
Haha yeah since I know what real bananas looked like in their ancient wild form, I'm not concerned about GM food. Could safe a lot of lives in my opinion but I'm no expert on the topic. Wait you alter your plants with radioactive gamma rays? Please elaborate. Pfff it's funny how worried you are about this. I've lived in the Netherlands for most of my adult life so I won't judge xD I actually smoked the first time since November last Saturday evening. Was fun but I really don't need it :) Haha xD Then I'll stick to he/him, ok? Because whenever I say Morgen in my mind, a picture of Captain Morgan pops into my head. It's pronounced the same way after all xD If you feel like sapiosexual describes the situation for you quite well, you shouldn't care about what others think of it :) I think I couldn't identify with that for myself, I remember in highschool that I was crushing hard on one of the dumbest kids in my grade. He didn't finish high school... I think as long as you feel comfortable with yourself and your relationships (not romantic or whatever but all relationships you have with the people in your life), there is nothing wrong. I hope you find happiness, whatever form that might take for you :) I asked for worms so let me have them! XD Since you said you like German songs, the worm thing reminded me of one... I wonder if and know it. I think it's originally a children's song but we use it for carnival. It's one of the dumbest songs I know. The title literally translates into "Do you hear the worms coughing?" YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ghg7Oe772bw Lyrics (If you wanna throw it into Google translate. If it doesn't make any sense, the translation should be accurate): https://www.songtexte.com/songtext/markus-becker/horst-du-die-regenwurmer-husten-3bf258bc.html

I don't know anymore, LOL. I think I visited a teddy bear exhibition in Essen back then and fell in love. For more info, see post above for Atomic, please. <3
Do you do some sort of sports?
Is napping a sport? No? Awh, I guess I don't really do any! :( Having said that when I do sports, I like ones like tennis or badminton. :)
For Minty
Absolutely, happy to help others where I can. Just be advised we seem to have quite a bit of a time difference. Right now for me it's like 2.45pm where I am. xD
Do you do some sort of sports?
I am riding my bike to work and back but apart from that I am not really an athletic person. Sport has never been a passion of mine...coughs
For Minty
Rain on a tent is amazing, too I agree! I have an app on my smartphone with noises to help you to sleep, there are many different sounds of rain as well and I believe rain on a tent is part of the list.
For Ulalena
I can imagine that making teddy bears is time consuming but also very pleasing. I love how all the bears on your photos seem to have their own personality as well!
I am too clumsy to do any kind of sport lol
I do not follow any sport, I consider it a form of idolatry. IMO, the worst part of any sport are the fans. You've no idea how it divides.
The closest I do is rock and roll, and swinging me axe and hammers.
Do you do some sort of sports?
Nope, sports have never really been my thing. I played Softball once ages ago and that was it for me.
Thank you for the Birthday Wishes! It has been a good day.

i have not seen rupaul's drag race, no. i get either super sucked into tv shows or i lose complete interest. i have Netflix but i don't really use it. i am good about moderation when watching things haha.
oh yeah, for sure. i think it's worse cuz soooo many people just pretend to be allergic to things because they just don't like it. luckily i can just pick stuff I'm allergic to out and it's totally okay, but i know its so much more severe for other people. plus epi-pens are SO expensive. i am so tired of shitty healthcare. :'(
q's: favorite color is a sea foam green! i love the spectrum from teal to turquoise to light green to light blue. and i love to swim but the only sport i watch are e-sports (not as much anymore).
as for the controversy, i would prefer lighter questions. while i don't shy away from anything, it's also nice to just chit chat every day and talk about dumb shit like turkeys and their ability to fly. 😂 i can help pitch in for questions if you find yourself short!
I'm looking forward to Fridays! We are on "summer hours" according to HR, so I get off early on Fridays now xD It's nice.
And to keep with the topic and the most recent random question:
My favorite color is probably purple. Blues and some greens are up there too though,
Do you do some sort of sports?
Hmmmm does competitive napping count? Lol In reality, nah. I'm not much of a sporty person though I am making an effort to at least workout now to get into and stay in better shape. (Which isn't the same, but I just felt like mentioning it...)
For Minty
If I knew what I wanted to actually do for a living, I'd like to find something to replace the janitorial job. Unfortunately, my passions don't really pay because, while I know what I love, it's hard to find a job that would include what I love and pay well but not involve either college (which I have no time or money for at this point) or also including stuff I hate with a fiery passion. shrug
So I'm kinda stuck right now.
