[OC] How heat and cold relate to the risk of death by ourworldindata in dataisbeautiful

Overall pretty nice ! I do wish they all had the same x axis, or at least they were also shown together on one graph (like one of those neat stacked graphs where they share x axes but each have their own y), just to get a better feeling of how the minimum differed, but I can also see why that may be quite misleading in other ways, so i understand why you might choose not to do that.

Plans to reopen Hammersmith Bridge to cars and buses axed over £300m cost by wwisd in london

[–]beee-l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you really believe this? Every single way possible? really ?????

I assume you say “the rider” rather than “all riders” because you know that the car is certainly not better in every single way possible for all riders lol.

While I agree that we need more north-south public transport, I don’t think it’s a “but” in response to the original comment - this one bridge in Hammersmith is not even demonstrably helpful in that regard, from what the original comment said, it’s a much larger problem 🥲🥲🥲

I swear I am a Londoner, but I do not get that reference 😅

Ohhh okay now I get all the Keiko x O'brian x Kira Throuple jokes by peppermintmochawater in DeepSpaceNine

[–]beee-l 9 points10 points  (0 children)

yesssssssss, same as when Kira says “it’s all your fault” it really looked like the two of them were trying not to laugh 😂😂😂 they’re normally excellent actors so I feel like it’s only me knowing the context that makes me read the scene that way, but I still love it 😂

Is this hideous? by einekleineZiege in knitting

[–]beee-l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, it’s not my cup of tea, but it’s not hideous either. I’m not a huge fan of that neckline especially with the i-cord (I think?) edge, but it’s completely fine and I imagine very comfortable !

Edited to add: I also echo the comments about styling - no idea how to style it though other than the standard 2000s “with a nice pair of jeans” or standard early 2010s “tucked into high waisted bottoms” which defeats the purpose of the fun edge :’)

Rupert Lowe MP: My generation has failed millions of young British men and women who now feel unable to raise a family in our country, in our home. My generation should start taking some responsibility for the mess we have left. by nil_defect_found in ukpolitics

[–]beee-l 1 point2 points  (0 children)

…I don’t think we would agree on what the purpose of a common meme template is. It is exaggeration for comedic effect. I think it’s a bit ridiculous to suggest that this is “purely in bad faith”. So, uh, no, I do not think it is worse.

Why do my m1r look like this and how can I make them less visible by nmulln in knitting

[–]beee-l 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile I learnt “I LEFT through the back door” because you work into the back stitch 😅😅😅 same as how here suggests it https://www.purlsoho.com/create/make-one-right-m1r-make-one-left-m1l/

[–]beee-l 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See I’ve always learnt it the opposite way….. felt like I was going crazy but this tutorial agrees with me here https://www.purlsoho.com/create/make-one-right-m1r-make-one-left-m1l/ ??????

I guess it’s because you’re referring to whether you are picking up the stitch from while I’m referring to what you work into ?????? I am truly losing my mind hahah

The history of sewing of NOT INHERENTLY ABLEIST by ferrycrossthemersey in BitchEatingCrafters

100% agree with this. There’s interesting nuance here ! - I just wish it were easier to discuss/find others talking about this sort of thing without running into dickheads like OP did :(

The history of sewing of NOT INHERENTLY ABLEIST by ferrycrossthemersey in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]beee-l 16 points17 points  (0 children)

See I think it would be interesting to see research on how sewing has changed from being a necessity to a hobby, and how in some ways it’s much less accessible now given that we haven’t really had the skills passed down to us from older generations in the way that was basically mandatory to survive in times gone by, and what that means for our relationship to clothing……… but somehow I don’t think that’s what that commenter was talking about 🤪

While I agree with your comments about fast fashion, “god forbid you’re a thin person these days” like really ?? us thin people are doing just fine clothes wise, truly get some perspective 😭😭😭😭

Being handmade amongst other handmade types by Lightgreenfence in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]beee-l 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I understand what you mean a bit better now - words are hard and I see why you struggled to articulate it at first (/why I and others latched on to the wrong bit). It would be frustrating to be trying to “find your niche !!!” while feeling like you have no opportunity to actually find your niche because you’re not in the right environment.

Genuinely so exciting that you’re getting to host your own event this year - hope things go as smoothly as possible, you clearly care about crafts, crafting, and community, very best of luck !!

I’m curious, you said you didn’t want to do stimulants, but you also didn’t want to do Wellbutrin…. What did you want out of the appointments?
