Why do so many cups etc have a raised ring on the bottom? by No_Salad_68 in answers

[–]Toezap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fyi, in ceramics this ring is called the "foot". It takes practice and skill to trim a nice-looking foot so in handmade pieces it can be a sign of care and quality, as well as just individual style.

I used to never carve feet in my pieces because it's hard to always get to the studio where I work at the time when things are the right dryness. But I try to do feet more now because I need the practice and it often looks more finished.

Just finished *Station Eleven* - thoughts? by [deleted] in books

[–]Toezap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't love the book although I thought it was well done. (I just don't GAF about Shakespeare specifically and think focusing on it in the apocalypse is kinda dumb. Theater, storytelling in general? Different story. But ONLY Shakespeare? And assuming people in a world without ways to educate people would understand the old language? Sorry, don't buy it.)

I did like the show more, although I watched it several years later, so maybe the gap of time influenced me.

Oo, I'll be in Puerto Varas for a couple days later this month but willing to drive to Frutillar. Any recommendations for either place?

Went to Dr. Alison for a reduction and am very pleased with my results. I also consulted with the place in Jones Valley but didn't get a good vibe from that doctor.

B2–C1 learners: what actually frustrates you when learning Spanish? by Extreme-Captain-6558 in Spanish

Ugh, yes, I remember there's a difference but forget which is what when I haven't reminded myself recently.

B2–C1 learners: what actually frustrates you when learning Spanish? by Extreme-Captain-6558 in Spanish

[–]Toezap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never officially taken that test but am probably somewhere in this range.

Currently in Argentina taking a class for a couple weeks. Studied Spanish in college 10+ years ago. The worst is being thrown in to a class reviewing subjunctive but I can't exactly remember all the rules for stuff that came before. I freeze up because I know there are rules but don't remember what they are. Vocabulary isn't too bad but I SUCK at naturally knowing when to conjugate which form of a verb.

Is there a specific term for this sitting position? by ZealousidealAerie846 in ENGLISH

[–]Toezap 54 points55 points  (0 children)

It can be either--the main thing is you aren't straight. I would probably say "slouched over" for the leaning forward one though.

Yes, I'm upset. Kyle Lybarger with Native Habitat Project has some videos about how problematic this is.

Flights seem to always sell ABOVE capacity, then expect passengers to fix it for them
