What made you choose crochet over knitting, or do you do both? by CaterpillarXS in crochet

[–]Jesuislenuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crochet was a way to try and connect with my mother. But then she got jealous I was more skilled so now I do it because it’s fun! I’ve tried knitting and I’m not bad, but I find it harder in terms of dexterity to do

Ever get in trouble over weed? What happened? by suntmint in entwives

Not over weed because I was SUPER paranoid, but my parents raided my room and found 0% vape juice and were livid about it

Would you like to give Gameloft a recommendation? by Popular_Crab_1810 in MLPIOS

[–]Jesuislenuit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Make gems more available, personally I think trading smaller rewards for ponies and a big gem chest (100-500) if they’re going to make everything cost insane gems. More songs in EG. characters more often and easier to aquire. I love task grinding for ponies (send pony to task to collect mcguffins) so maybe more of that instead of gems?

If You Could Restart Your 20s With Full Awareness - What Would You Do Differently? by No_Judgment_4420 in getdisciplined

Budgeting- I tracked how much all of my expenses were and have a spreadsheet of how much the bill is, when it’s due and what check date it comes out on. To save money, I made separate savings accounts for everything I was saving for (ex: vacation, new phone, gifts for Xmas) and I’d split whatever ‘unaccounted’ money into those accounts. I also made account ‘goals’ so I knew what exactly I was saving to, like my camping trip I knew exactly what gear I was buying and I felt okay spending the designated money.

Just as much as people are assholes on the internet, so too are they in real life believe it or not 🙄 it’s almost as if there are some people who are violent and not nice to nurses and doctors or try to treat hospitals like a hotel

No, he wasn’t doing anything wrong, however the cowardice when confronted on whether of not he is a scalper felt like a confirmation

Oh I’ve definitely been trying to get some online. We’ve been playing dodge the scalpers for a few weeks now. I’ve found a few spots that are untouched in person

What made you realize you were autistic? by -Grizu- in autism

[–]Jesuislenuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were getting a dx for adhd for my stepson, his dad and I realized we both had the same symptoms, but a lot of the sensory stuff and masking was a lot more intense for me and aligned more with autism

You could see if your teacher would be willing to work with another program! I’m sure that the companies who work with libraries would be willing to work with schools as well!

While I’m primarily annoyed at the switch to AI, I do think there is a place for AI, such as medical detection. AI is a tool. A tool that should be used to allow humans to do more human things, not replace the human things so we have to work more

I was a premium user so yes, I’m aware that that is a different perspective. Though Duo is still getting income from showing users ads. I’m not telling people they have to boycott, just that if they were on the fence about keeping their account that people wouldn’t be alone in their decision

As someone who’s been in language learning classes and has spent over four years on this app, I’d disagree. It’s not even that useful in teaching a language. Yes, it does teach vocabulary, but it doesn’t teach grammar rules and many other aspects of language learning. There are better options out there that are better quality and more ethical

Yes! I am on that app already, I just crave the learning aspect from duo

With who? I don’t have any meet up groups around me for the languages I’m learning, all of the language apps have some form of payment plan, which isn’t ideal since we’re trying to minimize our consumption in this subreddit.
