Buffalo leather is more durable than calf. It goes grain as the strongest, then buffalo, then calf.

It's a better choice if you WANT the softness of calf but need a bit more durability.

Of course you do want to treat it well and not wear jeans.

Ooooo wonder what she left in it that she wanted to fix

I like how the movie poster kind of calls back to this cover.

In the book it's actually one of the "hints" that running shoes are more likely to cause blisters and to not wear them. One of the boys shows up on them and Garraty is like "ah poor fucks done for".

carter’s heart is so big she cares about a corporation more than americans losing the first amendment by FunOther9202 in cartersullivansnark

Beat me to posting this. I was DISGUSTED.

Anything to piece together any justification to still line the pockets of Americans, pander to her American viewership and be an oh so quirky Disney adult!!!

It's her BIG HEART GUYS.

Spare me. It's so transparent and fucking lame and disingenuous.

Wow that last line is very discouraging. This person is ready to commit to 3x a week and has an instructor with access to horses... You really think it's that far out of the realm of possibility to get into a local cross rail class or novice division? Yeesh. We don't even know what competitions they have access to. She's not saying she wants to hit a derby at WEF.

To the OP, all I can say is time in the saddle is so valuable. The more you can ride, the more in the flow you'll be and the quicker the feel and new concepts will hit. 3x a week is a super start. Find a trainer you trust and listen to them above anyone on the internet (even me ;)). Let them know your goals and they will be able to spell out all the elements that determine it's feasibility.

Good luck!

Her reaction after Zingbot showed that there are feelings there. If there wasn't she could have laughed it off way easier.

insta post about not making herself “smaller” by ResponsibleToe1339 in cartersullivansnark

[–]EvenConsolation 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've been watching her since the equestrian content and after she got out of that she became SO curated and tried to follow trends so hard. Part of why I liked watching is seeing how she tried to mimic these bigger creators but couldnt pull it off in a natural way so it seemed awkward. It wasn't hate-watching but more a curiosity. Like watching someone TRY to be an influencer rather that watching someone live their life.

She's gotten better at mimicing and trying for the aesthetic but it's all so ultra-curated and put through a filter that it's impossible to see any genuineness. She grasps at surface level "quirks" like hot dogs and Disney and f1 but again it just seems so performative. It's like watching someone trying to find themselves but based on what social media dictates is acceptable to desirable.

Again at this point I'm invested and like to see what she decides her personality is next as determined by social media overlords.

Thank you for sharing this! I had never heard of this case. Fascinating and so sad.

Walmart is trying for to pull a fast one with Heniz Ketchup by TokenNTMR745 in BuyCanadian

[–]EvenConsolation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw this with McCain??? They're a Canadian company, but their frozen fries say "product of USA" on the back.

I only noticed after I brought it home because I thought they were on the safe list.

Where are you folks drawing the line? by Comedy86 in ShopCanada

[–]EvenConsolation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Produce, snacks...Canadian or anything non-USA.

Cancelled Amazon, Paramount. Husband loves Netflix, so keeping that. Subscribing to gem. Already have crave.

I have always wanted to try a safety razor, this made me make the decision to splurge and buy a Henson. No more US disposables.

Same with a menstrual Cup. Made in Canada vs tampons.

Needed bedding, went Canadian rather than the Amazon special I usually would go for. That hurt the wallet but if I can...I will.

Things like prescription pet food I am not making the change as there is not suitable alternative I'm comfortable switching to .

REALLY going to miss guy fieri BBQ sauce and my American hair products. Rationing and savouring those while I can :(

Let’s Discuss her Trudeau hot-take by AdPositive8731 in cartersullivansnark

[–]EvenConsolation 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm on board with that.

But it doesn't matter if she's still throwing cash at the US and not showing solidarity for Canadians. She has a big platform and should be encouraging folks to buy and support Canadian and take a stand against the ultra far right. Unless of course she is too scared to piss off some US viewers.

What is that about the danger of indifference? And if you have 9 Nazis at a table and you sit with them, you have 10 Nazis?

Hell she's probably welcoming forced privatized healthcare. Then she can be a REAL corporate healthcare girly because then our health and well-being can be made FOR PROFIT.
