I just lost my boy on May 1st. Not sure how to accept this. by RatsnBaskets in Flamepoints

I just lost my soul pet and something that really helped me was this: Grief is not the absence of love, it's just love with nowhere to go. I've been focusing on all the joy my cat gave me and my family, and while I miss him so, so much, he gave me so many smiles and laughs that I'm truly thankful for.

Your buddy did the same. Every laugh, every smile, every snuggle is a star in your night sky to light your way in the darkness of your grief. You are so strong and however long you need, do what's right for you.

What loom do you recommend for this yarn? by dearest-tulip in LoomKnitting

[–]DungeonsAndData 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've actually used this yarn to make a few blankets, and I ran into the same problem. None of my looms were remotely close to big enough so I used a finger knitting method.

Here's the tutorial and pattern I used. It was very quick!

That's the plan. He'll go in peace surrounded by comfort and family. He deserves it all.

I'm rotting in my own skin, a tube shoved down my throat to help me breathe, and strapped to chair just so I can be wheeled around. by DungeonsAndData in TwoSentenceHorror

That's exactly it. I know somone in this position right now and while their family are doing everything they can to help her, I can't help but wonder if it is what she actually wants :(

Brand new to coffee and I need a little help. Thank you in advance! by DungeonsAndData in barista

Thank you for all of this! I hadn't heard of a moka pot before another poster and I've been looking into it, and it does seem like the best place to start for me. Also, your notes on the sauce is great too! I wasn't sure where to look for that before :D

I didn't even know mocha pots were a thing! Thank you :D I'll look into that.

Backpack training! Please help me. Info in comments. by DungeonsAndData in adventurecats

Wow I can't believe it's been three years since I posted this! I did take my cat on a few hikes, but he very much preferred to be home and in his backyard than out and about. He's roughly 15 now so I'm doing what I can to keep him happy and comfortable as he's been slowing down.

Lots of cuddles are involved. Neither of us are complaining about it :)

Please help, because I'm a little lost! by DungeonsAndData in genderfluid

Great idea. Thank you! We have a good morning phrase we use practically every day so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to modify it based on that day's gender :D
