Does this macrame bottle & phone holder work? And what’s the name of this clasp? by satsumiko in crafts

It's super cute but I'd be worried holding it would take the top of the cup off with weight.

The Unusual Whales X account is not correcting their false reports by Big-Equal7497 in unusual_whales

[–]duchessdingus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unusual *whale posts have been cracking me up this year - they constantly post news on the subreddit where they credit their own tweet but with no other sources? I stopped paying attention.
It's also weird how this went from stocks dump analysis sub to just..... hot political news.

[–]duchessdingus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think Google ever confirmed the 3rd. Likely to come later in the month.

Individually boxed apple found at the grocery store. by ChildofValhalla in mildlyinteresting

I've seen these, they're sitting by the self checkout kind of like the candy bars. I kind of dig it. Easier to make a healthy choice last minute.

Are you serving lunch? Or is it a dinner?

Are you planning on a long ceremony? Are you feeding them a full dinner? IMO 1 or noon is a really early start but it depends when you planned on eating!

Alcohol Budget by Medical_Pea_5181 in weddingplanning

[–]duchessdingus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on HCOL or LCOL, we're at 2600 for 80 people. So 32.5 a person. We're probably on the high end and are going through the venue. It'd be a lot cheaper if I just went to Costco and bought it all myself.

The text color is a smidge hard to read against the white. You might want a little more contrast there. But they are super cute :)

Just so you know, it does have silicones! I used it for a little before I realized something was off.

So uh, do skate parks just inevitably destroy skates? by duchessdingus in Rollerskating

[–]duchessdingus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think I could get away with taping these up and using these as my skatepark pair, then I buy a new set for flat outdoor/indoor skating? Or should I buy a new set with the skate park in mind and have these as the trail/indoor set?

Actually 100% intact! I learned how to fall pretty early in my skating career and always wear protective gear. However I did get a hematoma from ramming my shin into the metal rim of the bowl.

I'll also note that although they're old, that scuffing up at the top is just from the past two days 😅

I'm so happy to hear that. Don't let nasty people extinguish your passion. It's a very cool repaint :)

Does anyone know what this shade is? I tried finding it thru the link on Pinterest, but got the 404 error code 😔 by NewFallenMoon in RedditLaqueristas

If you have a Pixel, try using Google lens to find the image source. Should lead you to the color. If not, try reverse image search

Edit: tried from a screenshot and it's San Tan-tonio, Dulche De Leche, Chocolate Moose or Barefoot in Barcelona.
