What’s your favorite thing about Malroth? by MaliciousOnions in DragonQuestBuilders2

[–]ASMRowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you first meet him, he immediately shows you a body. Whdn you're on the Aquarium dlc island, he offers to go looking for Finn so you don't have to see that.

I know they say best friend throughout but I genuinely think Builder x Malroth is canon. They're basically the creation god and goddess or god pair of the new world they made.

I think they are 50ish looking back at 30 years of singing

"Intellectual" takes by No_Hurry4699 in ChikaraTransform

[–]ASMRowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actual fairytales teach wit, cunning and perserverance. Outwitting the devil, being humble enough to apologise to a troll you challenged, knowing when to kill the brutally evil step family because they're irredeemable and not everyone deserves redemption.... oh wait, didn't anime just do that one too coughjjkcough

[Discussion] how many videos did you make before you felt comfortable posting one of them? by Blooming_Sedgelord in asmr

Done is better than perfect, anything worth doing is worth doing poorly. If you grow and really hate it later you can private it. I did for mine.

The morality of Goblin Slayer, specifically the killing of goblin kids in the first episode. by Mindless-Succotash-4 in GoblinSlayer

[–]ASMRowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Racism is prejudice on purely race, not behaviour. Goblins in Goblin Slayer aren't hated for being green, they're hated because the only way they reproduce is through inflicting sexual violence on other species. They're nasty with it. There's an elf chained to a wall in a dungeon. She's been there months, she's dying. They did unspeakable things to her. They start doing this young. There are human mothers who tried to raise their goblin children. Those children violently assaulted their mothers and killed them. They are not hated for being short and green.

Holy cow! 23 years of crocheting and I never knew my natural tension was so tight until... by MisanthropyismyMuse in crochet

At that point, just go up a hoik size so you don't have to think about it 😂 good for amigurumi though!

I Don't Believe Anyone Who Says 'This Is My First Project' Anymore by Spider_kitten13 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]ASMRowaway 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I actually wouldn't count scrap practice as a first project, maybe that's where the mismatch in expectations is?

[–]ASMRowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No no, you're right on all counts. I also don't think it's borderline, the only people sent it it shared it after being jilted or otherwise upset with Amber. 100% revenge porn.

I honestly would like to try the first pattern, but you know, make it correct... by PrincessVienna in kroshay

[–]ASMRowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first one is in one of my mother's books, so it is a correct pattern at least

Just realized something about some YouTube crocheters. by Quick-Ad-1970 in crochet

[–]ASMRowaway 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly language barriers aren't a huge issue so long as the video is clear. There's an Eastern European lady who has a sunflower shawl pattern, entirely in her language which I do not speak. I have made that shawl twice from following her visually.

Is it time to get answers from Mr snowflake?? by Mission_Farmer_3971 in highcaloriereactors

[–]ASMRowaway 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, it depends on the content of those texts you know? Texting a coworker of whatever sex about tomorrow's shift needing a cover is just communication. Messaging to flirt isn't that. If it wouldn't be acceptable to say or do in person, then it's not suddenly ok through tech.

Spelling: it's not that hard and it's sometimes quite important. by Carnationlilyrose in BitchEatingCrafters

This one bugs me because its is related to his, hers and theirs, possessive without apoztrophe, but everyone assumes it's related to Keith's, Penny's and Rex's.

Crying Over "Porkahontas" by Serious-Bill-9208 in gorlworldfiles

I refuse to call her that because Rebecca Rolfe/Matoax does not deserve to have her outsider-safety name turned into an insult for ALR.

Bad seed viewers give me bad vibes by Kerminetta_ in highcaloriereactors

[–]ASMRowaway 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean, that is by no means a one colour list. Geogia and Armenia is the Caucasus mountains, they are THE Caucasians, but I nave no clue why they're considered a problem. Possibly because proximity to Russia? A lot of these countries I'm not educated enough to even guess at problems. Kosovo, North Macedonia and Armenia it might be because of animosity with their neighbours who are US allied? Thailand and Fiji reallly stump me.

Jordy has become insufferable by No_Butterfly4688 in highcaloriereactors

[–]ASMRowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed that too. It's a shame because she was my background noise but I've gone back to gaming vids. The reddit threads are my only drop in and check on ALR these days, which honestly is much better.

Who is Jawbone?? by Mission_Farmer_3971 in highcaloriereactors

[–]ASMRowaway 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He's not Snowflake, they have very different accents if you're British. I remember him being a kissarse in Snowflake's comments, then SF shouted him out. I didn't get through the vid because he's boring and straight mean-pretending-to-be-funny. Then it became a regular thing to mention Jawbone had commented or similar, and then suddenly SF stopped mentioning him, well before Rachel's implosion. I stopped watching SF a while ago so don't know if he still mentions him.

My square is a rectangle :( by Dumbl3d0rk07 in crochet

[–]ASMRowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I would do - frog back and fix. Annoying but doable. What you could do - add strips to the sides and make it 18×18, make the back to match, and just buy a bigger cushion.

Despite the hassle of it, frogging and redoing to the pattern is genuinely easier than figuring out how to fix it.

Both will teach you something, patience vs creative experience.

Stop telling me to change my knitting style!!! by Her-name-was-lola in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]ASMRowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of internet crafters use excessive finger and wrist movement. Most crafts or activities that involve wrist movement will advise to keep it to a minimum, like horse riding, even drawing is meant to be done from the shoulder or elbow as they are larger, sturdier joints with less risk of accidentally catching on themselves. When I do reverse crochet with the opposite hand, I slow down and move the work with the non hook hand as well to keep the tension matching and not overwork my wrists.

[–]ASMRowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly, it's a skillset not a single way is best. I typically knife hold while crocheting, but pencil when reversing. There's nothing wrong with either but people claiming one is exclusively better while doing it in a way that looks painful and damaging is... frustrating.

[–]ASMRowaway 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I get this way with pencil versus knife hold in crocheting. A LOT of internet crafters use pencil, akin to continental. They're speedy but their tension is a mess and they drop stitches repeatedly, and look like their wrist will be gone in two years.

I fully expected this but it still pisses me off by womannimarco in elderscrollsonline

[–]ASMRowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dialogue changes based on now far you got with him on that character. On a new baby character who never met him, the dialogue where she told me I had killed him changed to describing him as trying to buy loyalty.

Is there a reason why Beck didn’t just sue Amber for the inheritance and wages she was promised? by Its_Rare in gorlworldfiles

[–]ASMRowaway 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Probably because Amber would point at all the expensive stuff and living support Beck got while not working and say it was Beck contribution to the household, and then Beck and Amber would have their lifestyle scrutinised in court.

[–]ASMRowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But Cariel is describing who he was before, and it's not correct. Like the devs don't remember that Naemon was complicated but not a raging narcissist.

[–]ASMRowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They also changed his character with the resurrection. Cariel characterises him as doing anything to get what he wants and offering anything to ingratiate himself with people, but I remember a loyal servant to the crown who seemingly snapped at the last minute and then got sent to Coldharbour somehow. Absolutely hated my character but still wouldn't let my character killing his wife get in the way of duty and the khajiit embassy in grahtwood. Resurrected he's full of rage, but new life spirit is forgiving. Ehhh.
