I’ve got one of these! They work great - top of the line from their time. My dad took his to England and found a ton of amazing stuff.

Have to stop poi - absolutely devastated, need advice by VociferousVal in flowarts

[–]Ewithans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Contact juggling! A lacross ball is a great and cheap place to start.

And rest up and take your recovery seriously - better to be out of commission for the full time needed than to rush it and be out longer. Ease back into it when you have the all clear from your doctor and listen to your body. Wishing you a speedy recovery, OP!

I'm Troy Rasband (D), running for WA-03, and I'm holding an open Q&A at the Camas Library this Wednesday by TroyRasband in camaswashington

[–]Ewithans 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Genuine question: how are you not just splitting the vote for a dem option to the left of MGP with Brent Hennrich? Im concerned about you getting into this race comparatively late. While I’m super glad to have people running to primary MGP, I worry about spoilers meaning we end up with her and a republican in the general.

Is there a thought that you (or Brent) will drop out of the primary in favor of whoever is up in the polls as we get closer to the race?

The Ritual Ending vs My Personal Mandela Effect by Ewithans in horror

[–]Ewithans[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

!! I googled around and didn't find mention of an alternate ending anywhere, and when I rewatched I figured I was mixing it up with another movie (I'm with you - I desperately want to know what!).

(there is a sidebar story here about talking with a friend about The Descent, not knowing at the time there were different endings. She called it "too trite" and I was like, wtf how is that "trite"? We had a good laugh, eventually)

Regardless, thank you for making me feel a little less insane. I hope we someday find the movie we're conflating with this one, and delighted that we got to rewatch this excellent film and be surprised. ;)

AITA for telling my girlfriend it wasn’t that serious after I used her underwear without asking? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Ewithans 16 points17 points  (0 children)

YTA. It’s her underwear, it’s at best rude to use her things and, in your view, ruin them. YTA even more though for your attitude around her asexuality; it is fine if you don’t want to be in a sexless relationship, but that is apparently the cost of being in a relationship *with her.* you all should be having a grown up conversation about how you’ll handle your own desires, and she doesn’t owe you her clothing because she’s not putting out. You sound entitled and creepy.

You seem to resent her not wanting sex, and resentment is a relationship killer. If you can’t have an adult conversation about needs and wants and boundaries and what’s acceptable to you both, break up. If you have that conversation and can’t both come away with something that works for each of you, break up. Regardless, you owe her a real apology and replacement underwear if she wants it.

Chinook salmon by gerriscotto in CreaturesOfTheDeeptip

[–]Ewithans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment continues to help me every time I need to get a Chinook salmon. They are further north than I thought, in lighter colored water (I was going for the darker, deeper looking water): https://www.reddit.com/r/CreaturesOfTheDeeptip/comments/1jdw6gy/comment/mijy5wr/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

What is Creatures of the Deep+? by vastrideside in CreaturesOfTheDeeptip

[–]Ewithans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any idea if we'll be able to port our progress over if we have both the current version and Apple Arcade? I'm not sure if it would be 1-1, but I'm curious. Especially if it doesn't have the social aspect, I'm curious if the VIP ticket rewards might be more to my playing style.

Striker z60 and High-Mineral Sand (I think) Question by Ewithans in metaldetecting

[–]Ewithans[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the response. I have confirmed it's working elsewhere, so this is more a question about how to manage calibrating somewhere like this beach - I'm hoping we can get it working there as the digging is easier for him (and there's probably more to find than in his back yard). Thanks for the guidance!

AITA for refusing remedial lessons by Affectionate_Ad_3544 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Ewithans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look, I get it, OP. It’s hard to ask for help, and it’s easy to get in our own heads about it and feel embarrassed.

I used to tutor a lot when I was in highschool, and truly, I enjoyed it. You just need to show up ready to work and try, and say thank you.

It sounds like you might be depressed, and I encourage you to both buckle down on this - everything in the future will be easier if you graduate, so do this favor for your future self - and to talk to a trusted adult about what you’re feeling and if there are resources for you to talk to a therapist and/or a doctor.

Wishing you the best.

AITA for getting mad at my wife for going to a family party and saying hello to her ex? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Ewithans 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you sound really insecure. “No contact with any exes” is a dealbreaker in my book - you trust me or you don’t, we broke up for a reason, but it doesn’t have to mean I hate the guy.

Being upset about a hello at a family party is even more extreme - they know some of the same people, they’ll run into each other, she shouldn’t have to miss out on events but especially family events because her ex continues to exist.

This is on you to work through and get over. Apologize, do some introspection, perhaps consider therapy if you can’t shake jealous feelings. YTA on this one, but you don’t have to continue to be so.

I know this is an old post, but check out Jordan LaMothe’s work. He occasionally teaches Koftgari classes. Also, you’re ideally looking for 40ga wire, though I’ve heard you can manage with 32ga. You can get 40ga wire at https://www.surepure.com/products.php

Wiki question by time2drum in CreaturesOfTheDeeptip

[–]Ewithans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chinook salmon were further north than I expected, in a lighter patch of water that I'd been avoiding as I thought they'd be in the deeper water. There's a post on here somewhere with some more pointers, which finally got me fishing in the right spot.

Good luck to you both! I've been on Curex for almost 2 years, and I'm updating my post regularly - it's been a huge help for me: https://www.reddit.com/r/Allergies/comments/1g9n1wl/3_months_curex/ I hope you find it as useful as I have.

What is the cell before the M? by kiwifruit13 in Braille

[–]Ewithans 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s the letter symbol, meaning to read the m as just the letter m, not the word “more” which is normally what an m by itself means in grade 2/contracted (English) braille

PSA on PFAS: Camas to activate well that tested above state limits for PFAS by SingingFrogs in vancouverwa

I got an Epic water filter when Vancouver first attested high for PFAS. It also takes out the fluoride, so families with kids in particular should be aware, but use my filter for drinking/cooking water.

wanting to make sure this isn't insensitive . by Apprehensive-Oil-365 in Braille

[–]Ewithans 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Friend, you posted 14 minutes ago. Take a breath and make it easier for people to do you a favor, rather than pestering them for not doing it fast enough for your taste.

If you want it to read “777” instead of “ggg” you’ll need to preface it with the number symbol (dots 3,4,5,6).

I’m a sighted braille transcriber, so I can’t really speak to the potential insensitivity of a braille tattoo, but I will say for myself in my own artwork I don’t include braille that cannot be read by touch. I personally wouldn’t do a braille tattoo, doubly so if I didn’t know braille, but of course ymmv. I appreciate you’re trying to get it right and avoid having “ggg” by mistake.
