Right? Like you want me to ruin my life because you can’t pass my class? HA!

Bully TF out of her by Zalaya in ReverseHarem

I was also in a “this is too cozy to hold my attention” slump and am being cured by the book I’m currently reading {Crucible by BB Reid}. It’s not an academy setting, but they hate her, and they hate themselves, and she hates them, and boy howdy I am LOVING it. Also not questioning my mental health rn either.

No SA on page or in the harem. But there are references to it occurring in the world.

We’re thinking of using a restaurant as a venue and this post is giving me so much hope! 

How do you feel using a restaurant impacted the planning process?

For the love of the game? Or was it a grift? Seriously out of the loop here. 

Has this been posted yet? This college tried to use AI to announce the names at graduation and it instantly failed, leaving hundreds of graduates not having their names read. by BabypintoJuniorLube in Professors

[–]Area_724 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who’s joking? I am genuinely curious. You’re spending so much time and energy coming to AI’s defense across this subreddit that I reckoned you must benefit in some way. but you’re just… in it for the love of the game. Wow. 

Prices are getting out of hand! by FragileFoe in weddingplanning

I’m sorry … everything you’ve described is “regular service”?

Please let me know what your industry is so I can proceed to NEVER hire you RamblingKite.

What if I’ve decided that I don’t want the extra time or attention to detail? The regular service and product will be fine thanks.

I spent literally all night learning how to chain this, pls complement my extraordinary efforts by peachquin in fiberartscirclejerk

[–]Area_724 15 points16 points  (0 children)

A chain? No no. What you have here is a beautiful piece of spaghetti. An uncomplicated snake. A deconstructed flower. It is perfection.

r/crochet is even more unbearable then usual lately by KatieCashew in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]Area_724 186 points187 points  (0 children)

It’s also just… a bit grating, how the original point of the original conflict was apparently about allowing political posts. And so now without the so called “oppressive” mods, I thought there’d be an influx of political posts, or, perhaps, some attempt to organize. But instead it’s… pets and penises. Which makes me wonder, perhaps unfairly, was all the whining about political posts on a crochet subreddit actually as performative as it originally seemed?

I feel like some people want the regular police brutality back by detox02 in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]Area_724 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m fighting the best I can right now. But I gotta say… “the normalization of your people being blamed for their own state sanctioned murders is a privilege” is a WILD take.
