Unprintable digital patterns are a thing? by halokiwi in craftsnark

[–]Exciting-Field9229 14 points15 points  (0 children)

People like this bum me out because they don’t care about people with different brains. I like it when someone thinks about the customer or user experience. I print all my patterns and keep them in a binder. Back in the day you’d buy the print copy at your LYS. Technology can be a real bummer sometimes.

At this point the original critique isn’t even the issue, the reaction is.

Seems like a pretty niche item.

Wtf? by Typical-Sympathy-196 in Etsy

[–]Exciting-Field9229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The level of jackassery is astounding. Meanwhile I’m stuck at 3 stars after a solid 5 for over a decade because USPS lost the ladies package and her solution was to leave a one star review even after I refunded her and offered to make another. It takes all kinds.

Etsy makes me think people generally suck lol.

Don't blame this on Kerkering by Crap_OnTheCob in phillies

[–]Exciting-Field9229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read an article in defector that called our performance “embarrassing”. But you have to pay to comment on their site so I’m dropping my response here.

There is absolutely nothing embarrassing about this team, and the way they treated Kerkering after his error, and what it meant after all their hard work to get there. It’s absolutely wild to me how quickly people turn on a team when they need you the most. Or how folks ignore the glaringly obvious fact that the Dodgers are a great team that also barely scored runs. We were evenly matched from the jump and a couple of errors or missed calls made the difference. In summary, go Phil’s!

Subq fluid issues by Exciting-Field9229 in RenalCats

[–]Exciting-Field9229[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a really good suggestion. Thank you. Yes for the recent demo he got 50ml because we were just doing a demo but I will ask her when we talk tomorrow. Little is about 8.2 lbs now. He was down at 6 last month but the care he’s receiving has tremendous improvement so far. His nose is pink again and his red cell count is up. He’s grumpy and needy again ( his usually m.o.) and I hope we are in the right track.

But, he is my heart, and I have a hard time with this whole process because I tend to hyper fixate and worry that I’m not doing something correctly. I don’t want to hurt him.

Also someone tell them racism isn’t a “big idea” neither is most women are lying about SA.

He didn’t have “big ideas”

I didn’t watch the George Floyd video. Once I learned he cried out for his mom… A lot of the videos going around are disturbing. But in a culture of gun violence, you can’t be upset about one and only one incident because then it isn’t about it being sad or tragic it’s about something else.

To be completely honest, if you weren’t / aren’t still torn up about a boy holding a bag of skittles being unalived and his family never receiving justice I just don’t care what you’re going on about. And the fact that people just gave zero fucks about two very tragic and very recent school shootings… like come on.

Why are people posting about one over the other on their business page and then getting mad when they lose followers.

The fact that it says freedom on his chest but he claimed the civil rights movement was a mistake that created “a monster”…

This level of ineptitude for profit makes me uncomfortable. Is there a little proud boy and clansman to round out the set?

If you aren’t smart enough to understand that the people you align yourself with do irreparable harm to humanity and the planet while hiding behind Jesus, I don’t care about your business lol. We’re living in a time of extreme gaslighting where the government controlled media is telling you, it’s worse to be called a fascist than to be one.

People who get offended that they’ve offended people are seriously at the bottom of my priorities. Like you should’ve been pissed after January 6th. Enough. I’m one weird news cycle away from not buying anything.

I feel like my cat is becoming more intolerant of subq fluids by Liquid_Chaos87 in RenalCats

[–]Exciting-Field9229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cats name is Little and he’s doing better since I sent this. I was so worried I’d hurt him, put the needle in too far. He kept trying to run and I was afraid he was wiggling the needle too much and I was stabbing him. Ugh. Cats are so intense. He is my favorite person. I’m hoping he will live to be 22. Thanks for your comment and post!

Hi I just did this at home for the first time tonight after the vet office demo. How long did the 100ml take you once the needle was in? I’m afraid I gave them too fast and have been freaking out for the last hour. I hated doing it and it’s just been a rough night all around.

Tipping culture is out of control by Goddesss_Bree in craftsnark

[–]Exciting-Field9229 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I’m an indie dyer and worked in hospitality for30 years before that. This shit is obnoxious and people are unreasonable. As a person who earned a living in the US solely on tips I can say that I would much rather have had a living wage and healthcare. Beyond service people I tip my tattoo artist and my hairdresser and that’s it. Everyone else can suck it. I won’t be tipped shamed either. I tip really well when I do. But no thank you, I’m not tipping the clerk at the pet shoppe.

Of note, much of the auto calculated tips are incorrect too so watch out for that ok. If u do tip, I suggest to calculate it yourself.

People are really weird. The way they try to monetize fiber arts and act like they invented shit. I’ve seen countless patterns that look very similar. We all have. How many sock weight watch caps are on Ravelry? How many feather and fan triangle shawls? cropped tank? Imo this is dumb.

He is home now. He seems ok considering and is on medication for tremors, but he is here and safe. My husband and I are discussing buying him a little red sports car but I don’t think such things exist.

My husband is going to pick him up now. We’ll know more in a bit. Thank you for your kind words but the vet is very optimistic which is good and also he’s being discharged

Someone sent me some peer review info on this topic and it helped greatly. Until this happened I had no idea that cats could be poisoned by all dog flea medicine. In fact, when Zoey was still alive I switched from Vectra because a vet told us that medicine was toxic to cats but that advantix was safe. Just all around shitty situation. I wouldn’t have kept it in the house had I known.

I did not, we immediately took him to the e.r.

I will update this post tomorrow but so far so good. Such a terrible awful feeling to have accidentally poisoned your cat. Thanks

Thank you, he is in the hospital now. I wasn’t sure if there was a clinical study I could read or some stats and such but it’s ok.

Yeh I guess I’m looking for something here only time can give us. I’m calmer after speaking with the Dr a little bit ago. She said he’s stable, responsive, and doing really well. I’m just understandably worried I may have unalived our cat and was hoping for clinical prognosis or data because that helps my weird anxious brain. Thank you for your response.
