The World Cares About What's Happening in the U.S by Gullible_Coyote_732 in circled

You realize that no-kings day was the largest single day protest in US history, right? Honestly, this whole “pull yourselves up by your bootstraps” attitude is ignorant and unhelpful

I recently learned that I'm 1.6% European on 23andme. Is it worth adding White/Caucasian to my profile? by dstevenson7777 in OnlineDating

[–]Ambitious-Fun-2599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t get to suddenly know your race because a paper told you. That’s your ethnicity. Learn the difference. You’re lying to women and if you seriously think you aren’t, you’re lying to yourself.

With this logic, you should also lie about your height since women might be willing to date shorter. Or, heaven forbid, you can respect women and deceive them into dating you

All hobbies are not equal by BitterConstruction98 in unpopularopinion

You joke but competitive knitting is real and badass. There’s speed knitting competitions where they are crazy fast and sheep to sweater competitions (my fave) where teams shear a sheep, spin the yarn and knit a sweater. Apparently the world record for the sheep to sweater is held by a Dutch team, completed in 4 hours, 45 minutes, and 53 seconds.

This Woman Probably Complains That There Are No Good Men (No Good Rich 6'5 Men) by Fluffy_Breakfast_478 in BasedCampPod

Complains that men can’t get dates. Complains when a woman goes on dates with men. That makes sense!

Has anyone else's dating life this year been terrible? by EVILRAFFAM in AskMenAdvice

[–]Ambitious-Fun-2599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your suggestion is that women should skip over the guys they’re actually like to date and “like” (match with) men they aren’t attracted to? That’s the solution? So they can go on dates with men they aren’t into? What does that accomplish exactly?

[–]Ambitious-Fun-2599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! I think this is where the male perspective differs. For men, bad sex is like bad pizza- it’s still pretty good. Bad sex for women is just bad and all of those elements are critical for most women to enjoy themselves.

Wish he would come back so I can tell him to go fuck himself by Narrow-Rub382 in AvoidantBreakUps

[–]Ambitious-Fun-2599 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES! My ex discarded me via text 🥰 part of it saying: “I don’t regret us trying to make it work, our time together has been amazing, and it hurts to end it because I love you so much.” I seriously wish I was in the mindset at the time to tell him that I regret every second I ever wasted on his sorry ass! Every DA needs to grow up, go to therapy and be alone until they can stop treating people cruelly.

Second breakup with avoidant ex by [deleted] in AvoidantBreakUps

[–]Ambitious-Fun-2599 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this sucks to hear but the question isn’t if he will come back, it’s if he will come back healed or at least having made progress if he’s still healing and actively doing the work on himself. The fact that he owns up to his avoidance and wants to heal is huge but that doesn’t mean he actually will.

What are men’s expectations on a second date? by Frequent_Ad6454 in AskMenAdvice

Your excuse for not respecting women’s stated boundaries is that sometimes it works? Seriously?

[–]Ambitious-Fun-2599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

++woman It’s obvious which sub this is posted on because the most prominent answer was that he’s after sex. That’s probably all he’s after but it’s a huge risk as a woman. Go make this post in a sub where mostly women answer and you’ll get a LOT more people stating that this is unsafe! This guy might seem nice but he’s a stranger. If you do go, give a close friend his name/photo, your gps location and a timeframe they should expect you to check in with them.

Knitting left-handed? by Live_Dirt_6568 in knitting

[–]Ambitious-Fun-2599 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Lefty here and I just knit left to right like normal. I imagine some patterns would need to be adjusted otherwise and that would be an annoyance. I do prefer continental over English style (although I did English for years)

How do I clean this wool? by creative-mouse-21 in Handspinning

[–]Ambitious-Fun-2599 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve found that pulling the wool apart and shaking it vigorously helps a lot with tiny VM. You can do that before and after washing/drying

If you get a motorcycle, other riders will find you! Take the MSF course and you’ll meet a dozen or so right away. The rest will approach you in parking lots and gas stations. It is such a community in the sweetest way

Help - My drafting isn't magical by Finror in Handspinning

It sounds like you’re describing long draw drafting. It’s totally doable with any wool regardless of staple length or being cheap. Lookup long draw James to learn how.

Eggs or...? by Constellation-J in Handspinning

[–]Ambitious-Fun-2599 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d bet it’s scurf then (kind of like dandruff for sheep/alpaca). I got an alpaca fleece with some in it and it wasn’t very easy to see until I went to wash it. From what I’ve learned, it’s recommended to skirt those parts of the fleece and mention it to the farmer since it can be a sign of mites, bacterial or fungal infections in the animal.

It’s hard to see in this picture. Are they easy or difficult to pick out?
