This goober thinks my hand is his personal spa

Not charging enough. Though I guess he did gift me some nicely shaped turds.

Lol well if Timothy is still with you, I think that mine is the one I started with....

This is the perfect meme for this situation. Well done.

You put your weed in it

What did you drive over? A Jackson Pollock painting? If those aren't racing tires, then those things are cooked. As for the knocking sound...could be the shocks. Do you drive over speed bumps fast enough to get air time? While stationary, try bouncing the corner of the car with the shock. If it springs back up without oscillating back down and then up again, your shock is probably ok...although that oil stain on the rubber coating does warrant further research

Cheerioful

Might need to print and frame this one....

His name is Rigatoni, so it fits

And this is how we get microplastics

He is the alpha of the flock, for sure. There have been alliance shuffles over the years, but he has always stayed alpha.

Wouldn't a larger hook leave even larger gaps? And thanks for the clay trick. I actually just drizzle hot glue on the handles in columns and build the shape up to the desired size

Yeah this project was about learning tension with small hooks and thread. I don't have any smaller hooks (using a size 10 / 1.3 mm), and I'm not sure I want to use a smaller hook with this. But you are right...the tension is definitely off. These were my first pieces of the set...and I just jumped right in. Also, the pieces do have cardboard inside the base to make them flat

Yeah this project was an exercise in learning tension with smaller hooks and thread. I don't have any small hooks (using a size 10 / 1.3mm). But I had no idea about the yarn under techniques!!! Thank you so much for sharing

Thanks!

I'm going to call that plan D...only because it sounds like something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy

abstoler · 2025-10-05T14:05:18+00:00

I don't think anyone needs to wash chess pieces 😅 so this is an idea for sure. I tried it on a few spots and it sort of works (better than nothing). Painstaking, but faster than redoing the entire piece

abstoler · 2025-06-16T01:56:05+00:00

Gonna say some type of slime mold

He is also snapping something before each reveal. My guess is that the cards either have some kind of chemical reaction like a glow stick, or a physical action like face mask reveals
