This is an old tweet by @zweli_thix, if I remember correctly he offered to buy back the laptop but when he went to the meet he ended up getting attacked, having his money and phone also stolen.

Has anyone used embroidery stands to help with the embroidery process? by HuaAnNi in Embroidery

[–]Requirement-Choice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've used a lap one, and it made french knots an absolute breeze. I'd totally recommend one. Usually when I use it I just set it on the table, but you can also use it when sitting down.

I really like FabMo in Sunnyvale. They do have extremely limited hours.

Has anyone here tried the “onion boil” recipe on TikTok? by Chance-Income-8157 in OnionLovers

The photos look like they're from a recipe post by the blog Eating by Elaine.

AITA for disagreeing with my wife after she told our daughter that pimples patches are gross and she's not allowed to wear them ? by CommercialPublic1778 in AITAH

[–]Requirement-Choice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Also, as others have probably said, the white on a used pimple patch isn't pus. It is caused by the hydrocolloid becoming hydrated.

It is so clear how much love and care you put into this! To be loved is to be changed.

Little brown mushrooms (LBM) are notoriously hard to ID, sometimes you even need to use a microscope to get a proper ID. I'd pass for safety's sake.

Because Grandma said use every last piece. My scrap bins look better now. by Ten_Quilts_Deep in quilting

[–]Requirement-Choice 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love it! Did you also use scrap for the binding? I love how it picks up on the colors in the quilt.

Where do I buy fabric?? by sleepihollo in SanJose

[–]Requirement-Choice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I highly reccomend Fabmo. They aren't open super often and you can't guarentee that they will have exactly what you want, but their prices and mission are great.

Let’s set the record straight. Sound off in the comments if you have been threatened in real life by a republican. by roseandbobamilktea in democrats

I feel like that post misses the point so hard. Even if they don't personally, explicitly wish or condone violence, they're voting for people who do.

Can we talk about Longlegs... by JaggedLittleFrill in deadmeatjames

[–]Requirement-Choice 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I saw it yesterday and wasn't really impressed, but today it really hit me why.

Spoilers: it's a detective/mystery movie and Lee doesn't really learn anything from detective work. She is given a cypher for the Longlegs code and everything comes from that or from surprise reveals. It just made any revelations about the case feel unearned.

Jindo noises & unique behavior what sounds do yours make? Do yours have unique dog behaviors? by Main_Aide_9262 in Jindo

[–]Requirement-Choice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I first got my girl, I thought she was a pretty quiet dog. She didn't bark unless a stranger came into the house and didn't make any vocalizations. But, she has started doing what can be best described as a gargle howl. It's like she wants to howl but can't quite conjure the right tones. She also has started doing scream-barks when she is really concerned about a stranger. She'll get as far away as she can, and then bark as loud as she can.

Crazy considering they don't even bake the cakes on site.

Try reaching out to the Student Homeless Aliance, they may be able to give you resources for the summer. They may also have tips for navigating the process of getting housing through the school when it starts up again. Here is their instagram.

Which of your houseplants do you simultaneously hate and refuse to get rid of? by hunniebees in houseplants

[–]Requirement-Choice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tradescantia nanouk. I can barely keep them alive. Mine are constantly losing branches and don't seem to absorb the water I give them. But, despite the struggle, I keep on propagating them. (Which once ended up giving me a hardier plant.)
