How do I get my suit tailored?

I bought a cheap suit with the intention of making it look good through tailoring, but I don’t know how to actually get that done. The local stores don’t have websites and haven’t picked up when I called, should I just walk in with the suit? Do I need an appointment? Also, how much should I expect to pay? (California)...

Maybe this will be unpopular, but it’s probably not worth it if it’s a really cheap suit. If you’re buying a suit, make sure it’s 100% wool (yes, even a summer suit). My top recommendation for affordable suits is Suit Supply, if you have one around you. I believe they will do many or most simple adjustments for free, which makes the price tag pretty hard to beat for a good quality suit. Regardless of what you get, a high quality suit will last much longer and be more cost efficient in the long run.

Edit: I’ve heard mixed things about Indochino and never shopped with them, so I can’t comment, but that is another option.

It’s also important to buy a fit that you like. Some people think tailoring will fix anything, but it can’t. If you want a slim fit, don’t buy a classic fit suit.

Unless it’s a really nice tailor, you shouldn’t need an appointment.

Meanwhile, Owens began to use her Daily Wire platform to promote antisemitismclaiming this month on her show that “secret Jewish gangs” terrorize Hollywood — and recently favorited a tweet repeating a lie about Jews drinking Christians’ blood.

Bud that’s like antisemitism 101. In case you didn’t know, Jews don’t drink blood or control the world through a secret cabal.

Just because someone makes anti-Israel or anti-Zionism commentary doesn’t mean they aren’t also anti-Semitic.

Imagine letting Elon Musk drill a hole in your head just so you can make the mouse move with your mind

On one hand, I get it, on the other, I’d trust just about any other tech company above anything Musk does

@jeffw@lemmy.world avatar

The company and its accomplishments are pretty sketchy though

It was an incredibly reckless process of development that involved abusing monkeys and skirting regulations

To be fair, it sounds like it might have been a consensual open marriage.

Speaking of his children, does anybody remember Jaden Smith on Twitter posting super cringe shit? That was probably like a decade ago now

Which is weird because I thought that’s how rich people used foundations named after themselves? I thought it was mostly self-funded and a way to lower their tax burden

jeffw OP ,
@jeffw@lemmy.world avatar

Foundations are typically 501c3s

Fun fact: I had a cousin in the second tower on 9/11. They told everyone in his office to remain calm and he was just like “nope” and got the fuck out

jeffw OP ,
@jeffw@lemmy.world avatar

I think they made the “nope” decision as a group (or at least his team). I was young when it happened and honestly haven’t brought it up with him since. I figure it’s kind of a traumatic thing to just bring up at a family gathering.

I was filling out some registration for my new dog and under “neutered,” there were three options, including castration, vasectomy, and one other that I forget. Maybe it is a thing?

This is why they say you should wait a year or so before fixing dogs

What are you talking about? You really think a random ass video with no evidence proves anything?

Sorry to hear that dude. I work in healthcare, so feel free to DM me if I can ever help (not clinical, so don’t ask for medical advice lol, but navigating the system or anything like that)

That all sounds rough, but I’m glad you’ve had some progress! My mom has TN and has really valued going to a regular support group, FWIW.
