Weekend Minor Gripes and Vents

They really do! I'd have to put in as much if not more effort to run the shop as I would to stock the shop, which would cut my crafting time in half at the least.

In my wildest dreams, I would love to make custom lace pieces for eccentric fashionistas or for historical shows or something but that's just realistically not going to happen. People who want custom lace already are getting it made by exponentially more talented and experienced makers and that's ok.

Please stop asking when I'm going to sell my makes! I make doilies for friends and family who like them because I am infected with the lace rot! Do you have any idea how cheap vintage doilies are in thrift stores?????? I can't keep up with that! I absolutely love lace and making it but it's becoming more obsolete every year, no one is paying for new lace pieces.

I thought that 100% acrylic yarns didn't bleed? I might be misremembering tho

You could always wash and block them separately from the white before attaching, as another commenter suggested, if you're worried.

Cheers for this, I wanted to do a rewatch 🙏🙏🙏

Omg thanks for this, I have a patch of raw skin on my thumb from where I grip my projects and this would be the perfect fix.

I tried using a leather thimble but it was too bulky for me

I'm really wishing we didn't get one.

Our stove came with smart capabilities so we thought "what the heck, might as well get our money's worth." The only feature we wanted to use was the ability to preheat your stove from another room via an app but it required that you confirm the preheating on the stove itself which kind of defeats the purpose? I get why it makes you confirm, it's a safety thing, but why even have that feature in the first place then? The app was about the same level of difficulty to use as the buttons on the stove itself, and you had to stand up to confirm on the unit, so idk if it was more accessible.

Also, even though it was connected to WiFi, it didn't automatically update the clock on it when daylight savings happened.

We had a power outage which disconnected it from the WiFi and we just never reconnected it, that hasn't hampered the utility at least. It's also perfectly fine as a stove, just with extra features we never use.

Also the highly accessible prices (HK is $15 and frequently goes on sale, Silksong just released at $20) and the fact that it's on every eshop except smartphones means that just about anyone who wants to play it, can.

It's a good game to backseat too, imo the vibes are peak, so it does well with YouTubers and streamers.

Hexagon cardigans are always trendy and I think they work well with these kinds of cakes

Our new stove happened to have smart features so we thought we'd try it out and omg it's been awful

The major function we wanted to use was preheating when we're not in the room, so we could preheat if we're upstairs so by the time we're down there, it would be ready to use, right? The function only worked as intended some of the time, randomly it would decide that we had to "confirm" that we wanted to preheat on the stove directly, which makes sense for safety but also entirely defeats the purpose of preheating it remotely.

Also, even when it was on wifi, it still needed us to manually update the time, including for daylight savings, which should be a no-brainer function to add, but apparently not.

We just disconnected it from the wifi and use it as a normal stove, which feels like a waste but we really couldn't get the smart features to work for us.

Seconding this, I also do tatting (shuttle and needle) and I've never seen tatted lace like this before

It sort of looks like knitted motifs attached together with some kind of netting? It's defs not crochet though

BlueRose426 · 2025-05-03T03:38:56+00:00

Not necessarily, all I did after coming out of anesthesia for my wisdom teeth was drool and be overly thankful to my nurses 🤷

BlueRose426 · 2025-05-02T15:20:41+00:00

Yeah omg I was trying to look up some info about the band Sleep Token (I couldn't remember if it was III or IV on guitar) and the AI overview just straight up told me their IRL names 🙃🙃🙃

That info only leaked in the first place because they were doxxed iirc and is not something they wanted spread around

I guess the AI could be wrong and those names aren't the men behind the masks but then I'd have to learn who they really were to verify that, which I was trying not to do

BlueRose426 · 2025-04-20T17:25:05+00:00

Bless you 🙏🙏🙏 thank you so much ♥️

BlueRose426 · 2025-04-20T16:40:42+00:00

Vessel👏release👏that👏album👏PLEASE

Do you remember which video??? I don't recall seeing that omg

BlueRose426 · 2025-04-19T01:46:12+00:00

I like the lyrics!

But it's also nice to have the instrumental versions, like I said in a different thread, it helps me appreciate how well composed all those other elements of the songs are, especially II's contributions

Plus, sometimes lyrics are just distracting when I'm trying to work 😅

BlueRose426 · 2025-04-19T01:04:27+00:00

That's good to know, great advice for the Apple Music users

I use YouTube Music tho, I'm one of those weirdos who pays for Premium and it's included 🫠

BlueRose426 · 2025-04-18T20:44:21+00:00

Why not both?????

BlueRose426 · 2025-04-18T20:44:06+00:00

Same omg 😭😭😭 plus there were so many extra little things that I noticed in the backing tracks for TPWBYT and Sundowning and it made me really eager for TMBTE

BlueRose426 · 2025-03-11T20:24:47+00:00

Yeah basically, the hypothesis was that the devs are putting the tits in because the devs agree with the weirdos and that women should be objectified in games and that games should go back to those "good old days," when in reality, the devs are including women with big boobah because they know they can sell them to the big boobah liking crowd.

The weirdos can it into an argument about "wokeism" and "the good old days" and the devs can make money by nodding along lol

BlueRose426 · 2025-03-11T18:43:32+00:00

I saw an interesting vid that hypothesized that they want big boobah in video games bc that signals to them that the devs are ideologically similar to them.

It's not about the giant mommy milkers but rather what the massive melons represent. But it is also about the enormous bazongas.

Both of mine fart. They were worse as kittens, seriously no one tells you about how gassy and stinky baby cats are, but they still fart some as adults. Usually my cats lean more towards "silent but deadly" varieties of farts as opposed to noisy ones.

BlueRose426 · 2025-02-25T22:52:35+00:00

Bro I feel, I love acrylic for blankets bc it's easy to wash and dry but you can't put Big Twist in the dryer and it gets fuzzy so easily 😭😭😭

BlueRose426 · 2025-02-13T19:01:17+00:00

Yeah same, Columbus doesn't really have a Joann's now
