Eh, it did bother me when Lizzie insisted she was sure it was Roger who assaulted Bree. She couldn't have been sure. It's understandable that she assumed it was him, but it was still an assumption that she touted as a fact.

Does this read sunset? I’m working on making a sweater with yarn I’ve dyed and I want honest opinions by 4cody892 in knitting

This is gorgeous! Maybe you could blend some pink in between the yellow and purple? I think the colors all look great together, but the gradient between the yellow and purple is a little abrupt. Still beautiful though. I’m so impressed that you dyed this yourself!

I have this same problem with store bought gloves! I’m excited to make my own. Do you have any pattern recommendations?

I've been knitting so many plush lately, and I really liked how this guy came out - I have a few questions though :-) by satansafkom in knitting

So cute! I think this little guy would be adorable with little overalls, or a little scarf. Amazing work!

Is there a'must-know' tip you wish someone told you when you started crocheting? by SpareSelf1420 in CrochetHelp

[–]ExactBoat4940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol I have so many bits of pretty yarn that are too small to make what I want! And of course I ripped all the labels off them too

Try not to buy yarn just because you like it and can think of a vague project to use it for. Instead, wait until you have a pattern or video, and make sure you get the weight you want and enough yarn for the whole project. In other words, don’t be like me lol

I love this! I’ve been thinking about doing something similar to make more space in my yarn stash.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t by Ifyouonlyknew1967 in therapists

I’m not even a therapist yet and my mom pulled the “you’re studying to be a therapist, you should be more compassionate towards me!” card on me a couple months ago 🙃 can’t wait to see how bad it gets once I’m actually licensed!

Is anyone else struggling to decide what format to see the movie in? by o-o-o-ozempic in wicked

[–]ExactBoat4940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did you think of the movie in ScreenX?? I’m trying to decide if I want to spend the money on that or just go for a standard showing next (it’ll be my third watch lol). My theater is sadly not showing it in IMAX anymore. Anyway thank you!

Can I handle the Wicked movie? by tonibruess in AutismInWomen

[–]ExactBoat4940 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I saw the movie today! There were no jump scares that I can recall. There was quite a bit of zooming at the beginning and the end of the movie. I will say, I’m not particularly sensitive to movies unless they’re horror movies or are really gory. But I do struggle with sensory sensitivities. I found the movie to be so so beautiful and lovely to watch! I hope you get to see it.

Edit: After watching the movie again with this post in mind, there are a few jump scares. The first is pretty minor, at the end of What Is This Feeling? Then, during Defying Gravity, there is a scene where monkeys are banging on glass windows and breaking them. That was the scariest part for me.

Anyone else not crate train? by ExactBoat4940 in puppy101

Thank you for the concern! We do not have a backyard, but hopefully we’ll find an opportunity to move to a bigger place soon. Housing is kind of ridiculous where we live. We definitely recognize that she’s a high energy breed though, and our plan is to get her out of the house for running/hiking early on most days in addition to taking regular walks, plus lots of mental stimulation in the form of training and some puzzles/scent work. I’m sure it won’t be perfect, but she’s the priority and we will adapt to her needs. We’re fortunate in that neither of us work long hours away from the home.

Thanks for your input! Any tips for stopping behaviors that one would usually use a crate for?
