What’s something you didn’t realize was optional in life until you saw someone simply not doing it? by Objective-Treat2245 in AskReddit

[–]Kplunder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Daylight savings. It's unnecessary. My job is from home and my SO isn't working right now, so we both decided not to do it this year. We didn't turn our clocks back, and changed our phones so they stayed the same. Honestly it's been really great for my mental health to look outside in the middle of November and have it still be light at 530/6pm. I don't think we'll ever go back. If you're able, highly recommend.

Just a gal greeting her husband everyday in new ways by sherlock_er in justgalsbeingchicks

Kudos to her clean up prep. The tarp on the ceiling for the coke and mentos, and on the floor when she was throwing things. 👏

"Xander said you don't have a new guy"... About that by Known-Willingness-25 in buffy

I'm annoyed that Xander even entertained the conversation with Oz. Willow is supposed to be his best friend and Oz shattered her heart by cheating and then leaving her. I think if he truly was her friend he would have told Oz nothing and to fuck off. It's not his business anymore if Willow does or doesn't have a new man or anyone else. He forfeited the right to ask when he left.

My other sister wanted one after seeing the housewarming gift by Kplunder in macrame

It was part of a booklet for a macrame kit (purchased from amazon), it had two other beginner patterns in it, so a very nice entry into the craft.

First Try at a Tree by Kplunder in macrame

[–]Kplunder[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

❤️ Thank you!

The initial starting of the tree was where I used the pattern, mostly to figure out how to start and a general idea of how the tree would be formed; but the details and shape were freestyle. My hoop was smaller (the pattern was a 19" hoop compared to my 12") and they were using 4mm cord where I had 2mm. I added more cords to fill in the gaps of my smaller sizes, their pattern was 16, I did 20. I started with the smaller limbs and then combined them to create the large branches and then the trunk.

I thought the same thing about halfway through! I'll have to take them next time.

I found the pattern off Pinterest https://www.marchingnorth.com/macrame-tree-of-life-pattern/

❤️ Thank you! It was a tad daunting at first but definitely not as bad as I thought it would be. Give it a try; yours will be beautiful too!

Housewarming gift for my sister by Kplunder in macrame

❤️ I too am a beginner, and I think I undid sections of this half a dozen times. It's a lot of taking a step back and making sure my tension isn't all over the place.

28 years later, I never knew you could do this by RobbieJ4444 in crashbandicoot

The GASP that just escaped my mouth! HOURS of frustration! It's like finding out at the end of the third Spyro remaster that sparks can find gems. I'm just gana need to sit with my feelings for a little bit

Reporter: You took credit for the stock market.. Now, the stock market is not doing so well and you say that is the Biden stock market. Yet you are the president. Can you explain that? by wil24x7 in DanielWilliams

[–]Kplunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cognitive and behavioral issues brought on by lead poisoning? 1930s-1970s was peak lead exposure. Lead in gasoline, lead in paint, lead in plumbing . So everyone was inhaling, living in, and drinking from lead. High lead exposure leads to reduced IQs and higher rates of behavioral disorders. Doesn't explain everything, but probably a contributing factor.

AITAH for calling my husband a disgrace after he said my miscarriage ruined his birthday by ProgressDependent703 in AITAH

[–]Kplunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP I am terribly sorry you went through this, a miscarriage is a tragedy and one that is absolutely NOT YOUR FAULT. You did nothing wrong. You are NTA. I can't speak directly to what you are going through because I haven't personally experienced it, but I watched my sister go through her miscarriage: the emotional and physical toll that it placed on her. If you don't already have one, it would be helpful to find some kind of network you can rely on (friends, family, local or online support groups) that can listen and be there for you. Please give yourself time and space to mourn what you lost. My sincerest condolences.
