So I don’t know about you, but I’m often frustrated by the ridiculous smallness of girls’ pockets. At a bare minimum, I need to be able to shove my cellphone in there – come on, pants companies! So what I started doing was making myself pocket extenders. I’ve done this several times, for pants and shorts. It’s great.
I just got this pair of jeans, so I thought I’d show you how to do it. I kind of feel like it just hasn’t occurred to some of you that this is an option, so maybe now it will. All you need is your pants, some fabric (I just took a random piece from a scrap bin), a needle, and some thread (thread doesn’t even need to match the fabric since literally no one will see it).
See? Ridiculous. Like, half a cellphone, or only 2.5″. Useless.
So turn those inside out to expose the pockets.
Figure out how big you want your pockets to actually be. I kinda go by whatever looks like might be right. I didn’t
really measure them. Fold the fabric in half, so you have a pocket, and
then fold it in half again so you can have two equal ones.
Try to get the edges to line up enough, pin it in place, then sew up the sides! Are your stitches crazy uneven and wonky looking? Doesn’t matter; nobody’s going to see it. These are in the inside of your pants. The only thing that matters is that it holds up. So I double-did the corners, since those tend to get the most stress.
Cut open the bottom of the existing pockets.
Pin it in place, then sew around, joining the new pocket to the old pocket. I did this by keeping my hand on the inside, so I wouldn’t accidentally sew through the other side. Again, I reinforced the corners, and didn’t worry about what it actually looks like. Then I turned it in side out to make sure the inside was all joined properly.
Yay all done! And the pockets are so much bigger now!
Whaaaat I can fit my entire phone and entire hand and probably something else now, are girls’ pockets even allowed to do that?! Heck yeah they are.

Woke: No one understands Thor’s antique, spicy asgardian memes
This of course brings up the question of what exactly asgardian memes would be, any ideas lads?
Imma just go ahead and say the tragedy of Loki of asgard is a huge meme at this point
heimdall watches you fap
[pointing at any group of 3 anythings] the warriors three
along the same lines pointing at any green animal “loki??”
if you’re straight you can’t cross the bifrost
if an uncomfortable conversation occurs you suddenly have to go home and [yourname]sleep for a hundred years
loki’s terrible overcomplicated plans
heimdall commits treason every single day and nobody has ever even thought of trying to stop him
odin’s vault is full of things that should not be kept together/anything lost (e. g. “where’s my other sock??” “odins vault probably”)
gET HELP MY BROTHER HE’S DYING (loki flies through the air)
probably the asgardian version of yeet tbh
“Carl this bag’s too heavy wtf is in th-” “YOU’RE JUST NOT WORTHY”
“Day 2737384 without sex: I’m ready to ride a horse. But like, the way Loki did.”
Breaking something any time someone says the word “another”. Like, any context at all
“there’s got to be another w-” *glass shatters off screen* “JEREMY I SWEAR TO FUCK-”
The 5edgy4u types would absolutely joke about Loki yeeting himself off the bifrost so like
*minor inconvenience* “TO THE BIFROST!”
*test goes bad* “TO THE BIFROST!”
*has to do the dishes* “TO THE- (well you get the point)
Giving each other Absolutely Ridiculous titles. (Read: “Bronn, god of that weird itch in your ear that doesn’t go away until you stick something in it”)
*violent thunder* “lmao Mood”
#Odin’sBeardChallenge where everyone tries to grow a majestic ass beard so that eventually they can scream “MY BEARD!” instead of “Odin’s beard” and if it’s Valid someone will say it back
My FAVORITE THING is researchers who wholeheartedly embrace the Ms. Frizzle aesthetic and wear their field of study on their literal sleeve. Everyone in the invasive crayfish consortium has tiny lobster-print shorts or socks. All the middle-aged dad scientists here at the lab have shirts with fish and/or fishing tackle patterns on them. My moss specimen and ammonite earrings keep getting noticed by women who are wearing silver fishbone-shaped or native plant-themed earrings themselves. Every single person on the outreach team has at least one shirt with an anchor pattern on it from Old Navy, and almost all the younger researchers have tattoos featuring their research interests – one fisheries biologist has a half-sleeve of native species she literally uses as an outreach tool. We are self-aware and having a blast with it, honestly.
