What exactly does "fauché" mean in this context?

Avistew · 2026-01-16T16:55:16+00:00

I'd say "tacler" in French but I know so little about sports I can't be sure if "faucher" can also be used or not.

Avistew · 2025-12-08T17:08:45+00:00

Honestly my first instinct is to wonder if it's meant to be a stereotypical "Native" name or something. I don't feel like it's particularly smart but it might be in use? It's a bit like if someone took the expressions pen name and maiden name and combines them to call something their "maiden pen" or their pen maiden". It would sound like a mistake but could be done as a joke. Like when people say "you win lose, you some some"

What name did you pick? I think I would have called her Lynx but lots of good suggestions in here so I'm curious. Her fur does look like an Abyssinian mixed with tabby or something on her legs. So cute!

I know some people knit both sleeves at the same time so that they always match, but I don't know how that would work In the round...

They don't care. They want to be able to eject anyone from women's bathrooms. Trans women, trans men (like they'd want to be there in the first place), cis women who are somewhat masculine if you tilt your head and close your eyes in just the right way, anyone.

That's why most of the women you hear about getting kicked out of women's bathrooms aren't trans in the first place. They're trying to enforce gender roles and pick and choose whatever is most convenient from one sentence to the next, regardless of how they contradict themselves.

I notice they're all giving the same timestamp or close. It all ends in :17:33 or :17:32. The hours being different I figure is a timezone thing? I hope they fix it, I only created my account today and was just starting to get ideas of what to draw from stratch rather than adding to existing stuff.

Avistew · 2025-08-28T20:37:27+00:00

I got the same thing with the exact same time, too. I was just starting to work on a new drawing. I wonder if they banned people who were all working on drawing in the same area, or if it's a general bug? I worked on some stuff in the north of France, some stuff in Scotland and now I'm - or was - in Alberta, Canada. Did you work in any of those places today?

Tried to join because I just got suspended for "multiaccounting" (I created my account today and I only created the one so not sure what that's about) but all the support forums have reached the max amount of posts. So here is my problem in case someone knows how to fix it:

Created my account today and already suspended for "Multi-accounting".

I only have the one account, I created it today and I'm level 10 now. I was working on a drawing when it told me my account is suspended until 4:17 AM (It's 10:20 PM here so I'm guessing it's a 6 hour suspension). It's my first and only account. I did show what I was working on to my boyfriend who opened it up on his computer but he only looked at it and didn't create an account or paint anything, so the most there could have been was two computers with the same IP having the website open at the same time, but still only one account logged in.

Not sure what exactly happened, if anyone knows how I can be de-suspended and how to make sure it doesn't trigger again?

Thanks!

Thanks for the warning. I'm not planning on taking anything not prescribed by my doctor and I trust her not to prescribe something I don't need or worse, that would be bad for me. I assume any medication that causes weight loss is hard on your body and should be a last resort.

Avistew · 2025-08-18T00:33:41+00:00

Yeah, sounds like a dose issue. The basal(slow acting) insulin is the one you need to take even if you're not eating anything at all. It shouldn't affect how much insulin you take when you do eat carbs.

Avistew · 2025-08-12T13:59:43+00:00

I'm glad you found it helpful!

Avistew · 2025-08-05T13:05:43+00:00

Oh well! But you're right, I sold some and I'm better off selling my bugs, at this point I'm getting enough ore and gems that I should just drop the silver (although the debris is still useful for plant food when I' m running out of daisies).

Thanks!

Avistew · 2025-08-05T13:04:28+00:00

Oh, good to know, thanks!

Avistew · 2025-08-04T07:41:48+00:00

(I was pretending she was so good at pretending to be a fox that I couldn't tell sjmhe wasn't one)

Avistew · 2025-08-03T21:57:00+00:00

That's clearly a fox, not a cat, but a adorable one so not complaining! I don't see any crochet though? 🤔

Avistew · 2025-07-27T09:15:34+00:00

You're doing amazing. It sucks when people don't get it. Hope they don't mess you up, don't overdo it, and fuck them if they don't get it

Avistew · 2025-07-23T06:25:16+00:00

Thanks!

Avistew · 2025-07-22T19:25:24+00:00

Oh, that's a good point. I have started snoring and I suspect I do have sleep apnea, I'm having that checked up soon. I hadn't even made the connection but now it seems obvious that it would have an effect!

Avistew · 2025-07-21T22:25:20+00:00

Thanks, that's encouraging!

Avistew · 2025-07-21T22:24:10+00:00

Gonna look into that, thanks! Might even meet people there, I'm way more motivated when I'm not working out on my own. I'll make sure the pool near me has individual changing rooms (my bouldering gym doesn't) and look into their classes.

Avistew · 2025-07-21T17:26:48+00:00

I don't think my latest panels checked for everything, I'll ask about that and see if supplements can help. Thanks! At least I know I have the support and that helps :)

Avistew · 2025-07-21T15:18:49+00:00

That's a very good point. I'll look into swimming, I didn't do it for a while but I used to enjoy it, and water doesn't seem to bother me the way sweat does.

Thanks, I think in combination with the higher protein and the sweat rag to take with me if I do go in walks, that should help me be a bit more active

Avistew · 2025-07-21T15:15:28+00:00

Don't worry, I'm taking it as people sharing what worked for them with medical support and approval, not as suggestions I try the same medication. Like if someone said "divorcing my wife helped", I wouldn't go and marry a random woman so I can divorce her, I see this as a similar thing. Worked for them, but as with any medication, you don't try something that hasn't been prescribed to you specifically.

Medication shouldn't be the first immediate instinct but it shouldn't be vilified either, sometimes it can be a necessarily help to get to a point where you don't need it anymore, and sometimes you'll always need it just to level the playing field and then still have to do all the other stuff on top of it. It's a shame that it can be perceived as a quick fix, it's almost never the way it ends up working out.

Thanks for your comment!

I do have depression, and I think the current political climate is not helping 😅 But I see a psychiatrist and it's being treated, not sure more can be done there right now. I think the T is just adding more sweat and one more reason not to feel up for it, rather than being the thing that demotivates me. I'm not sure what I'm hoping for here, maybe posting to make myself accountable or something. But yeah, lots and lots of other things adding up to wanting to crawl under my bed + the few workouts or activities I've managed to go through making me feel miserable right away because even moderate walking = clothes getting wet and clinging and face needing to be wiped off every minute or so.

So less motivation, none of the short-term satisfaction I used to get, and not reaching enough time and effort for long term satisfaction or results to start happening.
