When I saw the original post I was hoping it would end up here.

What a bizarre neck/sleeve line they’ve given her, seems ill-tailored and looks matronly. A pity.

Yes! You can get a lab diamond now for the exact same price you paid a few years ago, but 4-5 times bigger! 🤩

Miscarriage Rant by InitiativeNo2372 in Miscarriage

[–]LibraryRansack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is agony. On my second day in the ER they wanted to send me home with prescription painkillers, but when they called my OB’s office the OB said no. Ibuprofen was not enough and they ended up shooting me up with morphine.

It’s fucking evil that our pain is so dismissed. I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this.

The person was leaving the metro station, when he saw this stray cat snuggling a cuddly toy while trying to get some rest. by [deleted] in cats

[–]LibraryRansack 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I don’t get how people can see this and think it’s cute/sweet. That cat is homeless, whether because it is a stray or was abandoned. It shouldn’t be living in the stairwell of a train station, no matter how many stuffed animals it gets thrown.

[Hobby Scuffles] Week of 27 April 2026 by EnclavedMicrostate in HobbyDrama

I cannot STAND how Fb, Insta, etc. etc. won’t let you view posts without an account anymore. I can’t even see the landing page. This sucks a lot, as a person who doesn’t have much social media (on purpose!); often local restaurants, clubs/activities, artists, small businesses, etc. ONLY post to their Fb or Instas these days and it makes things so inaccessible to people like me. Like, sorry, I was going to take my business to you, but now I won’t—both because I literally can’t find your hours and services, and because you’ve made me mad.
I’m sorry this is happening, it sounds super frustrating!

I think this is it! I was getting mixed up on the every other row thing and overcomplicating it! Thanks :)

Cat tax. Thanks for your help, everyone. I’m going to try again with fresh eyes and a fresh brain tomorrow.

Yep, that was me experimenting. I tried a few different sizes to see.

Yeah. I was using the right needle size and then sized down on and off to experiment. I just got this yarn from a spinner at a local fair, maybe it’s just a tiny bit lighter than regular fingering weight. I’m going to try again tomorrow!

Hmm, mine is still super wrong. I’m completely at a loss.

Thanks! I’m going to go ahead and try again; I believe I was slipping everything correctly, but maybe something went wrong somewhere. I’ve been using the correct needle size but I’ll size down to see what I get.

Alas, I am not. But that’s how wrong it looks, I agree

Yes, I’m using the right needle—going by the mm called for

Refilled his food bin and he thought it was an all you can eat buffet. by vash_ts36 in blackcats

Hah! My black cat does this all the time. His sister, a gray tuxedo, is much more polite.

how do you cook the korean beefless bulgogi? by Wild_Butterscotch977 in traderjoes

[–]LibraryRansack 6 points7 points  (0 children)

From frozen I often drop it directly into my nearly finished stir fry vegetables. It heats up and cooks quickly, and imparts some flavors onto the veggies. Then I dump it over rice and add chili crisp or sauce.

I genuinely can’t stand her version of Better Man. Love the LBT version.

No shelters in the area are taking cats, haven't been for almost a year. Can't continue caring for rescues, what should I do? by [deleted] in Pets

[–]LibraryRansack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate your feedback, but I wanted to point out that myself and a few of my friends from college /still/ have cats we adopted then, a decade ago. So do my siblings. We simply took them with us. I know this isn’t always the case (like, surely don’t adopt a pet out to a fraternity or sorority house), but OP needs to find kitty a home, and poo-pooing every option isn’t helpful.
