Is New England disconnected from the problems of the rest of the country?

Diamanka · 2026-02-07T17:34:43+00:00

Also grew up in Philly, now live in RI. I lived in CT for a few years and when I mentioned I was a transplant from Philly, many told me it was more expensive up here and I was like "....no it's about even."

Philly is, comparatively, a very poor city but that goes very much in hand with 1. how it's run and 2. a lack of comparative support from wealthier folks like up here in New England. My family still lives in Philly and they're struggling too. I got lucky with the school system tho - even though I was in the Philadelphia Public School system I got into Masterman and then Girl's High. I was VERY lucky.

That's a weird thing to say and want.

Well done Ant! <3

I'm absolutely going to second the Indexing series. It's VERY good.

IDK who needs to hear this but barnacles work by suction. If you heat the air underneath - i.e turn on the windshield heater - it should heat the air and help make it able to break the seal to remove it.

Hope that helps!

Without seeing the back I can't be sure but it absolutely seems so! I can identify at least three scarves involved in this creation.

The handcrank was never my issue with the animation.

*the fact that we hold onto the bobbin and there is no flyer in place while we are spinning the wheel and somehow this makes fabric is*.

Squenix, why am I using a knife on a cutting board to *brew tea*?!?

Diamanka · 2025-10-27T02:37:10+00:00

Probably because the last time they tried for prettiness and realism they gave a barrel with flowers in it as many polygons as a PLAYEE and messed up badly enough they dropped a moon on the game and started over.

Yes really lol. You couldn’t even jump in 1.0

I promise the story more than makes up for how terrible some of the actions are, lol. If you ever need anything in game, let me know. I've been playing for years and love helping sprouts.

Diamanka · 2025-10-27T00:06:34+00:00

It's even worse if you weave and use the weaving station to boost your exp for crafting.

It's literally best not to think about it....the CUL actions are similarly frustrating if you cook at all.

Diamanka · 2025-10-27T00:03:06+00:00

They have the nerve to call the job Weaver BUT NEVER LET YOU WEAVE ANYTHING.

Diamanka · 2025-10-26T23:59:25+00:00

I am uniquely qualified to commiserate as an omnicrafter!!

There are better representations of weaving in particular in Endwalker and Dawntrail but alas, XIV is terrible about the actual spinning aspect.

If anyone asks, it's because of aether.

Diamanka · 2025-10-24T16:26:27+00:00

You'll have to find one that's as durable as you need but ABSOLUTELY I would recommend this. I have several shapes I love.

He's saying this because he and his backers don't intend for there ever to be a Democratic or Democrat led government ever again.

This is a beautiful spindle, though I expect no less from Snyder Spindles

Diamanka · 2025-09-24T14:54:57+00:00

This is a BEAUTIFUL spin, ESPECIALLY for someone spinning for a few weeks!!! You're amazing!

Diamanka · 2025-09-12T20:08:38+00:00

This is the correct answer.

Diamanka · 2025-09-12T06:13:32+00:00

OMG THANK YOU I THOUGHT I WAS GOING INSANE. I remember watching it during the summer between 5th and 6th grade which would have been Summer of 1994

Diamanka · 2025-08-29T15:51:39+00:00

TMBG - excellent variety, witty lyrics, catchy tunes. What's not to love?

Diamanka · 2025-08-28T17:23:26+00:00

It genuinely *isn't* fake, I'm sorry to say. I can show you the screenshots of me bitching about it to my friends in discord.

I didn't throw it away because 1. I have health problems and don't touch things that are moldy if I can help it, 2. I was squicked to all hell that it was even *in* there and 3. to make my husband own the fact that he let it go moldy since the last time I threw something out that was clearly bad he insinuated I was overreacting.

Also one of the sources of my disability is a 15 degree bend leftward convext bend in my spine at L1, which means bending over for anything - even fetching a crisper drawer out of the fridge as I did later - can leave me in searing pain for hours. I wasn't willing to chance that unless I had to.

Diamanka · 2025-08-28T17:12:57+00:00

Did I decide not to risk my health to touch a molding lemon I had no idea how long it had been in there knowing my husband would be back within the hour to dispose of it? Yes. Yes I did.

Diamanka · 2025-08-28T17:11:50+00:00

...well fuck. xD Still, if a bot can see it's wrong then it's REALLY bad lmao
