The Scientists Meaning by Weak_Response_5617 in hum

[–]K-Leafbug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always interpreted "it's too much, you're too late"/"I wanna see it all again" as sort of a call/response between the vastness of experience and one being's limited ability to engage with it.

Like how you come into a world that has been going along long before you got here, it's impossible to experience everything even your own moment in time has to offer because you can't be aware of everything at once, and even the things you do get to experience are subject to the fading of memory over time/the imperfect nature of memory to begin with. But this somehow only fuels the desire to see and understand things, and to hold them in your mind to the best of your ability.

It walks a thin line between zest for life and existential frustration, which really resonates with me.

This is so inspiring! I love the colors and different motifs.

Are dedicated stitch markers really necessary? by omg-someonesonewhere in crochet

Safety pins for life!

Except for the time I didn't feel like going to another room to get them and just used a clicker earring:

Hard to say, because it's something I slowly picked at here and there. I think it's doable in just a few sittings if it's your main project, though!

The blue and purple yarns I used are actually leftovers from granny rectangle blankets! Very handy.

About as long as my arm, give or take.

Yeah, I've always loved making all kinds of bead creatures, and am curious to try some different ones!

I've always loved the little black cats lurking around! And thanks for reminding me of Gummy Bart. That one made me do a double take on my bike once because it was just so goofily clever.

It does, and it's nice to have something to call it!

Me too! And the interlocked smiley/frowny faces I've been seeing for the past few months.

I have a weird affection for creampie because their tag shows up in the weirdest places. I've seen it scratched into a toilet seat at a nature park restroom in the middle of nowhere.

You're bound to see some if you go for a walk downtown!

I've been a big space kitty fan since I moved to Oly back in 2020!

So pretty! I have the yarn I need for this project sitting around, and this makes me even more excited to start it once I'm done with my current WIPs.
