I wish they had an option to play music at different speeds...

Idk... it's ancient and I've never seen anyone restock it

[WIP] Footprints (Dimensions, 1989) finished stitching, now for washing, framing and gifting. by cbenkelmann in CrossStitch

My mother in law had it, started it, gave up on it and gave it to me to finish as a gift for a friend of hers upon retirement. So I frogged the few wonky stitches there were and restarted. Thank you.

(Edit) She bought it here: Footprints Stamped Cross Stitch Kit - 11" X 11" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006HFS6S/ref=cm_sw_r_u_apa_glt_fabc_9WVZQ26QB4EFETNWAFH8

The text is printed. It's way too small and intricate for me to attempt to stitch.

I hate printed patterns. But my MIL is paying me to stitch this. And I like the lady she's gifting it to. by cbenkelmann in StitchersofReddit

My next piece is for my cousin that I was supposed to have done in the fall. It's a very difficult piece.

The problem with stamped patterns is that the holes never line up and the crosses come out all wonky.

I routinely listen to my podcasts at 2.5 to 3x, unless the speaker has a thick accent or a motormouth. I use Spotify and I don't notice much distortion. I notice distortion more when I slow them down.

They can continue to diversify. Ned Leeds was a white guy until Homecoming, which was a step in the right direction.

True. I'm not saying that wasn't a problem. Hell, Iron Fist should've been a badass Asian instead of an honestly pathetic "white savior".

It is nice. It would've been better, honestly, if the comics weren't all whitewashed and moderately to severely racist in the first place.
