This may be old man yelling at clouds, but has SuperGlue changed their formula since the 1980s?
I remember a time when you could easily glue your fingers together in seconds with SuperGlue. Now it takes hours to glue plastic together, and accidental finger application is no problem.*
The internet says the formula is the same, but I am not seeing it.
*do not try, your experience may vary.
TIL: Don't use Araldite to repair skates. It's not flexible enough and makes the problem worse when it breaks. Sigh.
Can anyone recommend better glue that can take the compression and strain?

#PSA my Lovely #Crafting Peeps!
(This includes you if you have ever so much as reattached a broken-off handle to a coffee mug!)
Have found A Useful Site (if you need it) & Lovely Rabbit Hole (if you don't):
A website of recommendations for gluing This To That (#fabric to #leather, #ceramic to #vinyl, #styrofoam to #rubber, etc.), plus a trivia page & funny FAQs.

Enjoy!
Here are some of the glues I use and what I use them for!
E6000 - Good for most beadwork projects, but takes some time to dry.
Loctite Gel - I use this a lot for gluing centers and backings on applique projects. Dries fast but also hard, so I don't use it on the edges of a project where I need to stitch through.
ZAP-A-GAP - For gluing the ends of paracord bead-wrapping projects into end clasps.
G-S Hypo Cement - For precision gluing with the needle-tip applicator.

Of course glue is a pizza topping! How else do you keep the pineapple from falling off?
@RadicalGraffiti #EatTheRich with small rocks and glue!
#Rocks, #Glue, #AI, #TuckersBalls
@futurebird @Lucia Compare and contrast the incredible speed at which accurate information about Linux can be generated on the Fediverse versus Large Language AI Models instructing us to eat rocks and to use glue with pizza toppings.
Never underestimate the power of tech bros to overlook real problems and obvious solutions while throwing billions of $ at "disruption."
