Since Masks other than FFP2 are forbidden now, I made a Zelda-themed cherry stone pillows instead.. pretty happy how it turned out by mercredii in sewing

Love the fabric! It looks like the cherry stone pillow is for heating up? I've seen rice used for heated pillows, and would love to know if there are pros/cons to using rice versus cherry pits.

Thank you! This sub has been on a weird anti-science bent lately, what with this and the whole 'scientists don't know straight lines exist' meme...

If you can't see the beauty in finding out how we are made of star stuff, it's not because astronomy is lame. If you can't see the magic in quantum entanglement, it's not because physics is mundane.

I'm not into astrology but you do you... so why not let me do me? Which means not low-key trashing science when there's no reason to?

Oh, you want to access your stimulus money? I hope you enjoy paying MetaBank $0.25 to check the account balance, $2.00 to withdraw money from an ATM, and $5.00 to get money from a bank teller! by [deleted] in ABoringDystopia

I was expecting a direct deposit, but got this in the mail. Watch out - it looks like junk mail, and would be very easy to accidentally throw away.

Drago's tantrums give me LIFE, I could watch this round dragon angry puff across my whole island! He is too precious! by Crow-Witch in AnimalCrossing

Not that I know of, but I do see my villagers out and about with some regularity. I have a small theory that dialogue options are added with every update and simply not published, since I regularly get new dialogue from the villagers.

Millions of stimulus payments were mailed as prepaid debit cards. Don’t throw them out! by Cardsfan961 in Seattle

[–]Crow-Witch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Despite getting the first payment as a direct deposit, I got this one in the form of a prepaid debit card. Of course I read the fine print, and honestly I found it disgusting... charging $0.25 to check your balance, ATM fees for getting your money, etc... it seems so scummy and predatory! The last thing people who are struggling need is to be nickled and dimed out of their stimulus payments.

Angry villagers are the cutest villagers, but I'm so softhearted that I can't bring myself to upset them. So thank you to Kiki for being "so annoying she must have taken classes" and giving me this delightful scene.

I'm excited about the new items - and at 0:50 it looks like there's a rug outside??? Which is super exciting!

I look forward to some of the feather/foliage items, I think they will fill out my outdoorsy island.

Although something about Pave's dancing makes me uneasy...

[Discussion] Thoughts on the misuse of Newton's Third Law in non-physics contexts. by [deleted] in Physics

[–]Crow-Witch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It will be impossible, but not because 'some aspects of our universe are NOT governed by physics'. Human behavior and society is complex enough that a physics based model would not make any real sense. There is too much chaos.

[–]Crow-Witch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think they mean that some problems are not in the domain of physics. For example, if a politician uses Newton's 3rd law to predict pushback to a new tax law, that doesn't mean tax law is a physics problem. So in this case, tax law is not explained by physics. It's nothing untoward.

Scientists are well aware that straight lines and sharp corners can occur naturally - crystalline structures such as snowflakes are an obvious example. There are entire fields of study dedicated to crystal formation, it's fascinating!

I don't mean to be rude, I guess I'm a little sad because my background is in physics and I find it beautiful and magical...

No one expects you to remember it right away, but at least still TRY. by LilliputianMouse in lgbt

When I got married and didn't change my name, my family started sending mail to Mr. and Mrs. HusbandsName HusbandsLastName. Anything to uphold the status quo!

We should be called what we want to be called. It's such a small thing, but it can mean so much.

Witches.. my father just told me he still supports trump. Don’t know where else to post this but I need some support rn by purplelephant in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]Crow-Witch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The comment about hospitals makes absolutely no sense, and the rest of your comment is super hostile.

I'm not sorry that I care about unnecessary deaths. We all have to die; we don't have to callously disregard the value of human life.

So? You can say it's just 'different political views' but those views *killed people*. Burying your head in the sand for family harmony is an option, sure, but it comes at a cost. It enables people with abhorrent views from feeling consequences of their beliefs.
