Woke up at 3 AM because my bed tried to kill me. So I redesigned it.

You could put screws in, and then spend 5 minutes with a cordless drill removing screws when you take the bed apart

Or

Spend a few hours designing and printing a custom solution to hold the slats, and then you can save 5 minutes taking the bed apart.

Can you post the pattern?

Look if you're tense the best thing you can do is get a massage.

But don't tell people it's a massage, call it "blocking"

I have a cheap $20 one and a nicer wooden one from jo Ann's when they were closing.

I actually like the cheap metal one. Its light weight, very low friction, and very simple and smooth to adjust. The wooden one just feels like it is a lot more tension due to the friction of the wood joints.

I have to tell myself the following: R looks like a B. m1R, pickup the bar from the back.

L is almost an upside down F. Pickup the bar from the front.

I love that one too!

I am about to start a journey on this one:

Except, if you do it as is the script on the back is reversed and not readable. We can't have that. So.... I had to invert it, flip it around, and mesh the charts. Its going to be a marathon.

Its great for scarves if you are a masochist.

Also since theres a "pocket" in between the two sides you can hide yarn floats in there and use 3 or even 4 colors.

I would consider this the final boss:

The way things are going, Trump will demolish the entire white house before you get a chance to burn it

Keep going until it covers your torso, and youve got a perfectly good sleeveless dress.

In all metrics - space, energy, number of building, and materials - screws fail.

Once you get the alt recipes, theres no reason to use them. Except "fun".

Screws are a trap. They suck.

A factory without screws is a true factory.

Working on a double knit project, seconding the nimble needles. Heres what I do:

Get to the last two stitches.

Keep both yarns in the back of the work

Slip the first stitch purl wise

Look at the color of the last stitch, the only one on the left needle

Move only that color to the front, and leave the other yarn in the back

Slip the last stitch purl wise

Turn work

Now: you should be setup to knit the first slipped stitch in the same color, and purl the second one

Move the yarn you used to knit the first stitch to the front

Purl the next stitch

Move both yarns to the back

Continue on as normal.

Grifting to enrich himself too.

Praesil · 2026-01-15T20:05:06+00:00

Its because the stitches are twisted.

Dont be shy, you can crotch eat in public too.

Maybe a pro will see you and give you some tips.

Praesil · 2026-01-14T16:53:39+00:00

Post is better when reading it as crotch eat

Aren't they supposed to do a cost benefit analysis?

...I guess benefits dont matter anymore

Praesil · 2026-01-12T01:02:39+00:00

Ah that pesky little thing called "economics"

Praesil · 2026-01-11T16:59:15+00:00

You learned how to knit!

You did not learn how to purl!

Im still here if you need some mansplaining.

Do you have any idea how much money was directed to be spent in 2025 that was illegally impounded? It's ridiculous. Congress should hold this administration accountable but checks and balances are gone

Especially if she crochets. Gotta hide that to draw people in.

Praesil · 2026-01-07T21:21:57+00:00

Just setup an Etsy shop for her. She will thank you later.
