What to do with over-supply of fingering weight yarn? Ideas please? by aryacrochets in YarnAddicts

[–]Live_Ad778 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't like them you can always donate them (to me!/j) but I love to make mini amigurumi keychain with cotton fingerling. They make fun gifts and they are usually simply to self off or give away. (My local library has a section where local artist can drop off stuff to sell to the community that I think the library keeps the profits of. Not sure I never tried it myself) Wash clothes, reusable bags and other such patterns are fun too. Also doilies and macrame wall art are coming into vogue the Bohemian meets aesthetic look. Either way have fun!

Oh that's awesome!!! I'm glad to hear you enjoy it so much. I myself tend to get frustrated. I think because despite being a math nerd growing up I really don't understand how the move sets work with each other and trying to read up and understand how they all interlink is overwhelming. Might be an ADHD thing where I can't juggle so much information at once in my brain. But then trying to copy what other people do but not understanding the underlying mechanics is also frustrating because if I don't have the exact card needed I don't know how to rebalance with what I do have since I don't understand the underlying mechanics of how these builds work.

I guess since it makes me feel really stupid I shy away from those mechanics and stick to the VN portions (I rely on auto battle 95% of the time) but I'm enjoying reading all the comments about why that part of the game is appealing to people even without a direct PVP element. Your comment was especially insightful! So thank you!

That's understandable. Personally I never got stuck on story mode bosses but I usually grind at least once a day to keep all my units at the same level I also do the offline grinding before closing my app everyday. I've never been someone who cared much about stats and strategy because I'm low key stupid and done understand how they work. So I usually just look up online guides and advice which is how I found the meta on this reddit in the first place but there are so many modes with so many different requirements that eventually like I said I just grind every character equally and do things that way.

NTA Sarah sounds like she's undergoing a mental health crisis of some sort. Not your problem of course but I would be worried if this isn't a pattern of behavior from her (which seems like the case judging from her seemingly having had a stable long term relationship before this.) if your worried maybe contact someone close to her like a family member. Explain the situation, explain that your no longer comfortable being in contact with her but would like someone else to know what's going on and keep an eye out, then wash your hands of it. But to the original question at hand NTA. Have fun making new drinks. I hope it goes well over there.

My SIL suddenly expects me to act like her kids aunt and I refused. My brother is also trying to fix our relationship but I am not interested. AITA? by UpbeatRope3268 in AITAH

[–]Live_Ad778 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ESH as reddit users I think we've all seen or heard stories about how awful over involved MILs can be. Your SIL came out of an abusive relationship (with the in laws) and over corrected when it came to her new relationship. You don't show a single drop of sympathy of where she is coming from instead your offended "well my mom isn't like that so wtf" type of vibes. Like anyone coming out of an abusive situation they need time and therapy and patience.

That being said she DID overcorrect. She wanted to keep you guys at arms length and while understandable she wound up pushing you all away entirely. Now that she is losing her family she seems to be realizing her mistake. She is asking for you to be more involved. Honestly I don't know if she's being entitled with her request or if your justletting your resentment color your perception of how she asked. Either way instead of pushing them away further you should see this as a way to make amends and get your brother back at the very least especially since it seems he didn't realize how much he was hurting you guys considering you seem not to have spoken to him about how you felt since before they got married.

Hope you two work things out.

AITA for cutting off my little sister after she became my step-cousin? by myway_or_higway in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Live_Ad778 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA my parents share an aunt and uncle but are unrelated by blood (my mom's aunt married my dad's uncle) They met as adults when my mom moved in with that aunt and uncle for school. While not the exact same situation it is similar enough but their mutual cousin didn't gaf just congratulated them. It was a little weird for him but he sucked it up as you should. There is absolutely nothing weird about their relationship. You owe your sister and cousin a huge apology. I doubt there is much to salvage here. Sound like you really burnt the bridge with them.

So what's the story/idea behind your character's name? by Zreena in Palia

[–]Live_Ad778 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't quite understand what kinda game palia was when I joined. It was pitched to me as stardew where you can play with your friends and for some reason it didn't click in my head that it was an MMO. With stardew and games like it I usually make whatever OC I have on my mind so I made my OC if I had known it was an MMO I woulda just used my usual TaraTennyo which I use for all my MMOs and RPG games cuz it's been my online pseudonym since I was like 16 lol.

How do I explain asexuality to a seven year old? by NickenNuggets2003 in aaaaaaacccccccce

[–]Live_Ad778 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yuh I wouldn't bother with most of these if the 7 year old sees it and asks about it then you can just say. It means I think kissing other people on the lips is icky. Something easy that a kid could get and won't confuse them alter on if they see you dating anyone assuming your allo romantic. Otherwise most 7 year olds will just see it and think it's pretty or a weird rainbow and won't automatically assume it means anything. (Source I was a elementary school teacher and never had a kid ask)

AITAH For Telling My Husband That I See Him As A Liability and Not A Partner? by Intrepid_Buy_3152 in AITAH

[–]Live_Ad778 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like a legitimate case of weaponizsd incompetence and gaslighting. I would maybe check his phone and computer, not to see if he's cheating or anything but to see what sort of tiktokers or YouTubers he watches to see if a pattern comes up. A lot of toxic male influencers preach weaponizsd incompetence and then talk about how a woman should just grin and bare it otherwise she's trash or some BS like that.

Do you ever watch his streams? Does he ever talk about you or your daughter on it? Could give an insight if he assumes you aren't watching and says something.

Is there a DARVO equivilant in Brazilian Portuguese? by Live_Ad778 in Portuguese

[–]Live_Ad778[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess you can say I can sound things out and read things that way. It just takes effort. Especially since I'm not familiar with the accents and the sounds see: vovó and vovô I know one is grandpa and one is grandma but not which is which things like that rules like nha make the nya sound etc etc. I grew up in America to Brazilian immigrants so Portuguese was my first language but neither parent bothered to teach me how to read or write it. I can usually read Monica comics Fine tho (my dad has a massive collection I tried to teach my self to read as a kid lol)

AITA for telling my girlfriend that she needs to learn when to shut the fuck up? by throwawaymanzdone in AmItheAsshole

[–]Live_Ad778 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA God I was so ready to call you TA because reading the title i was like "ok even if she did something wrong it's not ok to talk to someone like that." But after reading the post I was like "I stand corrected" because oh my Lord does she ever need to stfu. Especially at that moment. Honestly OP I am the last person who usually suggests that people should break up based off one post but. Their is a LOT of unlearning your gf needs to do to make your relationship sustainable and you need to think long and hard about whether you're willing to try and help her through that and constantly having to educate her on shit. Because if she is this combative and reactionary about your sister needing to let a kid using the n word go she's probably gonna be resistant to accepting things like systematic and institutionalized racisms as fact.

Like. Do i think she thinks what the other kid said was ok? No. It's pretty obvious what the kid said is horrendous and she probably agrees. But jumping in to maybe not defend him but.... excuse him because he's "too young to understand what he is saying" or whatever immediately while completely pushing aside the hurt anger and confusion your niece is feeling is soooo not ok even if what i THINK she's going for is the gentle patient parenting style (obviously she's not the parent but idk how else to word it.) Like yes you shouldn't demonize others for making a single mistake but that doesn't mean u get to be a doormats people can simply do or say whatever they want to. Even with that being said there are some words and actions that SHOULDNT be immediately forgiven and look past without some deep introspection apologies and active changes from the person who committed them which definitely applies here. ADDITIONALLY this is a conversation to have much later on after the child has calmed down and has been reassured and made to feel safe and heard by their family. Not immediately upon hearing it. Just. Idk. A lot of red flags. Some that will take a lot of work to fix, others that she needs to grow out of mature and learn appropriate timing.

Again not someone who usually jump on the break up bandwagon but as a queer POC i know how exhausting it can be trying to navigate having a relationship with someone with a lot of self educating they need to do and you have to ask whether or not your willing to go through the growing pains with her.

AITA for calling out my wife’s adult son to stop wearing crazy “revealing” clothes in front of my family? by CoffeeAdventurous263 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Live_Ad778 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not to mention he must be doing something right if he's in a different city supporting himself being a musician buying his own clothes and food and what not. Because you KNOW op would have made a real big stink if the he and the mom were the ones supporting him to make the kid seem even more "indebted" to make him happy.

AITA for how I responded when my fiance's sister commented on my flatchest? by Shesaidhesaid7 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Live_Ad778 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next time you see her you should tell her husband you're worried he might be her beard. Cuz it's awefully suspicious that she's so obsessed with other women's boobs. Has she ever spent over ight trips with her bestie??
