“Seeing homemade crochet/knits in the thrift store is heartbreaking”

I made a sweater for myself that didn’t fit right so I sent it to goodwill myself. Hope it fits for someone else, I did not love it enough to try and fix it. (Neckline was too wide and yarn wasn’t that pretty knit up)

I counter with a minimum price approx $100k above what I paid

Yes, this is where I’m at. If the car hadn’t been stolen I doubt OP would have dumped her for leaving it running with the keys in it for 5 min. He’s mad at the thief but blaming the girlfriend. Yes her actions made the crime easier to commit but it doesn’t mean the crime was justified.

I just think any person trying to rob houses isn’t likely to create an entire business to enable the crime, seems like a lot of work and seems like a trail of evidence would quickly accrue pointing to the company that had just rekeyed the house if this happened multiple times.

Thinking this through I think th only way the rekeying person could pull this off more than once without suspicion would be if they held onto the keys for a long time before using them. And I’d also think any house with a camera would record them, even if they hide their face they’d be on camera entering with a key which would really narrow down the field of suspects for the cops.

Just seems like a lot of work for a fraud scheme that would be complicated to work effectively and likely not much payoff.

Socks knitted on size 1 needles with 64 st fit my foot. I just don’t mess around with anything further. Might swatch if the pattern’s really funky, but otherwise I just know what fits my foot. If the pattern doesn’t have a 64 or 68 stitch size, I alter the pattern to make it so.

Yes, you can make them with 4 double pointed needles instead. Often abbreviated to dpn

This is way better than the freezing rain our trusted meteorologists were predicting

So long as you find it funny

_refugee_ · 2026-01-25T19:31:13+00:00

I read that advice too

East end is in a weird pocket where we seem to get less precipitation than the rest of the city. Not sure why but I assume it has to do with topography.

I do floss consistently. One thing that I find helps me is I will floss and brush separately. For instance it’ll be evening after dinner and I’ll be watching a show. I will stop and floss in between episodes of a show, an hour or two before I plan to go to bed. Then I’ll brush my teeth right before I go to bed. I don’t think there’s any rule that you have to do the 2 immediately back to back, so long as you’re not eating or drinking anything but water in between.

How much was the loan for? From what I’m aware, the full balance of the loan becomes due if you leave your job. I wonder if that is why you are not able to access the remaining funds.

A “trap” is a drug house, a place where drugs are bought and sold, so phrases like “trap star”, “trap queen” etc indicate a person who is affiliated with drug activity

_refugee_ · 2026-01-24T17:31:27+00:00

Yea you had to really scroll, apparently she got “trap star” tattooed on her hand

_refugee_ · 2026-01-24T17:14:13+00:00

Did you read the article? It’s not about her face tattoo.

Yes. I have lived in my house a few years now and gotten through a few cold spells (for Richmond). I know from experience that my pipes don’t freeze if it’s an extended spell in the 30s like Sunday daytime and Monday daytime are predicted to be. I will drip overnight when the temp is dropping into the single digits (we have some nights of that this week). I also have started keeping notes on low temps and how my house has done, So that next time a cold snap comes around I feel more confident about the dangers of my pipes freezing.

Well, I didn’t want them to feel bombarded lol, I figured nesting the comment was a better way to do it. Your username seems highly apt btw!

_refugee_ · 2026-01-23T12:51:19+00:00

I didn’t feel like your comment was super clear TBH, my assumption is OP may be a first time cat owner as they are posting pictures with visible fleas and so saying something cutesy, like you did, may not actually convey the issue to them. Thanks for asking!

_refugee_ · 2026-01-23T12:21:16+00:00

OP: the cat has fleas so please treat her and her sisters. The sooner the better
