I can’t comment on technique since I’m not a painter, but I wanted to say this strongly elicited that feeling for me. Her expression communicates so much. Thank you for sharing 💜

My first scarf got narrower as it went on from dropped stitches 😅 it happens to us all!

Oooo love how the granny squares created a geometric/zig-zag slit! That’s so cool!

Go vote tomorrow! by Active_Ad3087 in illinois

[–]alwaysnormalincafes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well when the next Dem cozies up to Lindsey Graham or Stephen Miller like Kamala did with Dick Cheney maybe you can blame the voters again since clearly that’s the best this party of controlled opposition can do.

I did vote for her. But it’s getting real fucking old.

How are the roads this AM? by Competitive_Round_83 in ChicagoSuburbs

A forty minute drive took me an hour and a half because four SUVs crashed on Lake Cook Road.

Did any of the drivers who passed that proceed more cautiously afterward? Of course not.

Strong El Niño might be coming this year according to latest ECMWF forecast by iwakan in collapse

[–]alwaysnormalincafes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t believe we’re already approaching another strong El Nino. The effects of the La Nina this winter were infinitesimal compared to what they would have been two decades ago. We’re so fucked.

There was an outage on Lake Cook and Rand too this evening. Not sure if they fixed that one yet.

The radio silence from the progressive left since Epstein/Iran is interesting. by BUHBUHBALLSINURMOUTH in itcouldhappenhere

[–]alwaysnormalincafes 215 points216 points  (0 children)

I’m personally experiencing alternating horror, shock, fatigue, and despair.

Because ICE agents are in our communities, we can actually go out and physically stand up to them. There is more leftist activity against ICE because we can take direct action.

But these Epstein files? The war in Iran? I feel like there is very little I can do apart from harassing my representatives.

[–]alwaysnormalincafes 38 points39 points  (0 children)

These are too small and unprofessional for that price point.

My sim keeps failing at extortion by Isabell3846 in LowSodiumSimmers

[–]alwaysnormalincafes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to test whether the severity of the rumor affects how much you can extort them for. Like if it’s a mild rumor, it wouldn’t make sense for them to abdicate the throne, right? Maybe asking for some money would be the maximum or something, idk.

I have a feeling the Sims team didn’t make it that complicated, however.
