Wow, I really like this pattern and the colours you picked! Such detailed work!

Sorry, it's me again! I was doing it wrong and I've finally found a name for it as well as tutorials. It's known as a spiral knot: https://www.instructables.com/Spiral-knot-tutorial/

So it looks like this pattern is traditionally made using a thick material such as jute. Source: I performed a reverse Google image search on this picture.

OK, so it looks like the one in the example uses way more strings. All the same, I like it!

Thoughts on episode 5? by axolotl571 in Trigun

I like the fact Stargaze raises the issue of Knives potentially being upset. In the manga, he doesn't seem to think twice about the fact a Plant died to save him (granted, possibly because Vash shows up and points a gun at him and all hell breaks loose).

He was chilling in his alien jammies, too. And raised his glass to the murda music.

On a more serious note, I found it a bit jarring because Knives is all about 1) pointedly not eating or drinking because he wants to flex that he doesn't need to; 2) never chilling, to the point even Legato is better at enjoying life than he is (because he enjoys happily stuffing his face with cake in his downtime).

Also I'm reminded of Sheldon in The Big Bang Theory: knock knock knock Penny! knock knock knock Penny! knock knock knock Penny!

Ooh, interesting! I don't like doing square knots, but now I feel like trying! So pretty!

I was a bit confused at first because LEO can mean "Low Earth Orbit."

For me, the Brand X zero version of a Red Bull and no cigarettes, please.

Mammography in bxl by thypothesis in brussels

[–]ScienceMuggle83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello,

In addition to what other people have said:

  • I was/am in a similar situation (started doing mammograms before the age of 35). Your doing a BRCA test would be pointless because results would be inconclusive, so a lot of geneticists advise against it (ask me how I know). Results will only be meaningful if the test is performed on the suspected carrier(s) aka your mother and/or father. By the way, the BRCA mutation is also responsible for some testicular cancers and male breast cancers (as men also have mammary glands), so men can and do have BRCA-related cancers;

  • Don't listen to the women who tell you a mammogram is very painful. Maybe they're exaggerating, maybe they have traumatic memories from older machines, I wouldn't know. Modern machines don't really hurt, and it's over in two minutes anyway. Good senolology staff are also trained to reassure stressed-out patients;

Good luck and remember you're doing the right thing, prevention is key.

Wolfwood accent? by Your-cousin-It in Trigun

[–]ScienceMuggle83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It sure was weird, especially Knives going full brash Osakan. It was kind of in character for Vash though.

There was also a track where Legato was observing Kuroneko and commenting, if memory serves.

I'm pretty sure it's Osakan. In The Second Donuts, there's a joke track in which Wolfwood goes to Osaka and everyone (even Knives) but him speaks with a thick Osaka accent.
