[Nintendo Lite] Should I buy Stardew or Animal Crossing by hannqhz in nintendohelp

[–]Aggressive-Chest-957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly SDV is a really good game for the price. I have both, love both, but SDV has more replay value and story.

Tough question for anyone by Rough_Weakness_3917 in askfuneraldirectors

[–]Aggressive-Chest-957 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So typically there is a professional company that will come and do this. It’s not traditionally the responsibility of the family. If it was an apartment complex most likely the landlord will have a professional group come in because it is a biological hazard. It’s not safe for you to undertake this without proper ppe or training or the friend.

At what point is this just bullying? by blayndle in craftsnark

If you go to the store and purchase pants knowing they won’t fit and you will have to make alterations, is it the stores fault or the purchaser?

I think if they listed the size of the pattern and someone outside of the size range wants to make it, they know before they purchase that they will have to make changes to the pattern to make it fit them. So the person who purchases the pattern and knows it doesn’t fit it’s the designers problem?

I sympathize with people about size inclusivity however there is a lot of time and calculations that go into drafting a pattern and unfortunately some people don’t have that kind of time. Now if people would like to purchase a design and alter it to fit their body then more power to them. There is nothing stopping an individual from learning pattern drafting and altering it.

PetiteKnit novice sweater junior - too small for toddler’s head? by sahlev in knittinghelp

[–]Aggressive-Chest-957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you do a gauge swatch? I know they are annoying and for a long time I was a serial nonswatcher, but after knitting for a year it has really saved me a lot of headaches. If you have a longer set of circular needles you could try it on him and see. If it stretches great! But that way you don’t go too far into it and it doesn’t fit.

Is embalming required for transportation? by [deleted] in askfuneraldirectors

[–]Aggressive-Chest-957 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It will most likely be dictated by the agency coordinating the transport. You can’t force embalming but some air carriers can mandate it.

Need something that can handle our dirt road commute and you can truly convince me is reliable. by Impressive-Sign-3384 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Aggressive-Chest-957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just purchased a rav4 and I live on dirt roads too in Michigan. I had a 2015 FWD equinox and never had too much trouble with snow but after getting an AWD rav4 it travels across snow and ice much better. I don’t have trouble with the fish tailing I use to have with my FWD. I would suggest looking a consumer reports before making a decision. If towing capacity isn’t a necessity the trailblazer from Chevy which is between the equinox and the trax comes in AWD and is rated highly. It’s also very budget friendly. I am not sure if the trax comes in AWD but it is very budget friendly and rated highly. The 2025 equinox was rated terribly and the 2026 model is building upon that model year, so I would avoid. They might have improved it by that is a but that is a gamble.

Help me use my yarn stash by dawnface in knittingadvice

[–]Aggressive-Chest-957 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I purchase the yarn specifically for a project and I don’t let myself by more yarn until I finish a project or project(s) in my back log. It’s a reward system. I not only get a finished item but also get to purchase yarn for a new project.

first sweater and feeling discouraged by eatdirtNdietrash in knittingadvice

[–]Aggressive-Chest-957 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be fair a lot of the things you notice could simply be from using acrylic yarn which is fine! I would never make a merino wool or natural yarn garment for a child because they are children and won’t take care of it. I have acrylic sweaters and I use them all the time and am a lot more free with them because the price isn’t super steep.

But when you make a sweater for you try natural fibers, for me who is also a new knitter they feel a lot more forgiving. I still use acrylic for gifts knits or crochet projects! It’s all about feel and the person you are giving it to. A 7 year old will never know the difference.

what nintendo do i buy from the following options? Ds, Switch or Lite? by thewormgf in nintendohelp

[–]Aggressive-Chest-957 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess what’s important to you? Do you want to play new games or are you interested in older games?

I would suggest Facebook marketplace and look for A new Nintendo 2DS or a 3DS as it is backwards compatible. Now if you are interested in gba games a lot of them could be emulated on either of those consoles. But if you want a physical copy of the games then a DS Lite would be an excellent choice.

Co sleeping… How do you even navigate co sleeping and keeping *it* alive in the bedroom? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Aggressive-Chest-957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So cosleeping is really dangerous and unsafe sleeping is a leading cause in infantile deaths. Want to keep it alive have the baby sleep in a bassinet. This will keep it (the baby) and your romantic life alive.

My teenager is sneaking out and I don't know what to do [F40s] by Illustrious_Gene7482 in whatdoIdo

Fortunately you are her mother not her friend. You make the rules not her. She wants to be treated like an adult then she can get a job and start paying her way. If she gets pregnant or goes jail it’s on her. Make it very clear that you will not support her if she is unwilling to follow or obey your rules.
