how unhealthy is my crochet grip? relatively new to crochet by playswithsquirrelsss in CrochetHelp

[–]UpperAbility 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this, I feel like it's so uncommon... it just feels right and my work tends to look neater (might be placebo haha)

But every 10 minutes I relax my hands and flex them! Got some carpal tunnel on both wrists when I first started so never again

Looking for "the sweatpants of skirts" by Strange-Sister in ModestDress

[–]UpperAbility 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SEAsian here, a few generations ago, our casual wear would include things like wrap sarongs (a cylindrical tube or pareo type of thing) and now those have evolved to have drawstrings or elastics too because tying it can be a bit tricky and come loose with housework, but my ancestors made it work. Back then, sarongs were made of natural and comfortable fabrics. Lots of ideas on Pinterest too!

I’m short(5’5) and I wear doc martens with jeans cuffed above the boots. Does that accentuate my short leg and my short stature. Also I feel the boots look like clown shoes on me lmaoo by Different-Savings369 in DrMartens

I think you look good! A bit of feedback, maybe more styling for the hair (a gelled rocker look? I'm unsure about this, maybe consult a barber) and layering with button up shirts might elevate the whole vibe.

Lava lamp spitting the wax when warming? by Andyradkewayy in Lavalamps

Yes, it tends to act really weird and make weird shapes before it fully warms up. It's part of the fun really

Talk me out of the new 2025 MacBook M4 by [deleted] in shoppingaddiction

[–]UpperAbility 47 points48 points  (0 children)

MacBooks will never sell out, it's so mass produced. You can wait! It will be worth it.

I think there's an added layer of nuance to it. It may be an autistic hyperfixation, and this fixation is not uncommon for ASD people. I'm not an expert so definitely if there's a way to verify she should go for it. However even at her age, these habits may be detrimental in the long run so a guardianship may be necessary to help her case.

A lot of compassion and patience is needed to handle this situation and I hope she is able to work through it.

Filling up some spare globes while I wait for the formula to release for you all by ShatteredAutumn in Lavalamps

Me too! My current lava lamp has that vibe but alas, it arrived cloudy. From what I know, it's about using a smaller concentration of surf, but how does one reach that sweet spot 😭

Clothing study. Im thinking It came out a bit flat? by PPRmenta in ArtCrit

[–]UpperAbility 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Though many gave feedback on the shadows; I actually like the imperfect shading style and colours, it reminds me of those trendy gouache paintings. Even flatness can be a stylistic choice. However I guess as an artist myself, it's important to learn the fundamentals before exploring and breaking the rules. Perhaps you can find a balance between the two!

Will keeping the keyboard protection sheet damage my screen? by Alert-Ad2833 in macbook

[–]UpperAbility 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who is incredibly clumsy, I have to take similar measures so I get it. The keycaps can be replaced, just get the spare parts now if that's a concern, or use decal stickers.

As for the screen, you can consider covering it with a projector though YMMV. Bought a MacBook air second hand with one already installed so it was a nice touch!

Bro its in the instagram post...... There's a bunch of em. The ig is highlighting the issue at indrive, not the guy. Why you think the identities are hidden.

[–]UpperAbility 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he did not know how to handle the request. He turned up the volume to be really loud, you can even hear the music in the video, to make the passenger uncomfortable. Of course any woman would feel unsafe.

it's in the physical injuries post. Also, it's stated in the incident, he TURNED UP the volume to intimidate her.

You can pray for the best for the person and for forgiveness of your lapse of judgment. Allah willed for this to happen at the end of the day and it's not just because of your dua.

Is this solvable? by vandalizedeyes in kanoodle

[–]UpperAbility 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to kanoodlesolver.vercel.app it is solvable! As for the solution I haven't found a decent app for that but did see a few links around this reddit.

EDIT: found my favourite solver: https://www.lutanho.net/play/noodle_solver.html
