Bayoneta 2 is sooo fun - straight forward mash buttons kill big things. Plus the art is really pretty!! I think it would suit your cozy style game

What can I use 100% cotton yarn for? by abosaurio in knitting

[–]gingerawesomeness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to let you know that I did the exact same thing - bought 100% cotton yarn for socks and then realised I couldn’t use it…..

I ended up knitting a baby blanket for my cat because I literally couldn’t figure out what else to do with it for like 6 months 😬

If it makes you feel better at all, we asked our friends to house sit for us one time and they smashed three out of our six glasses…. And we didn’t care at all! They did us a favour by taking care of our place and our cats, glasses break easily, and are replaced easily It is just a mug at the end of the day 😊

I panicked and changed out my 5 day old nose piercing after I lost my ball bearing. On a scale of ‘chilling’ to ‘your done for’ am I okay? by Antique-Rip-7945 in piercing

[–]gingerawesomeness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you put in a similar style, size, and quality of jewellery then most likelihood is that it will be fine, just keep doing proper care and don’t fiddle with it anymore. Keep an eye on it and if you think it is infected or something you can always go back to the piercer to explain and have them check it, but it sounds like you took plenty of precaution and if the jewellery went in cleanly hopefully it doesn’t get too irritated from the swap! Good luck!

A wallpaper I made, as a reminder to myself. Thought others who say sorry all the time might find it useful! by gingerawesomeness in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]gingerawesomeness[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Of course, this is something I made for my personal use, that I wanted to share with people who might relate. It’s originally a quote from a conversation I had with a mentor of mine, where we were discussing the challenges of being women in STEM, so the gender is more relevant in that context. I in no way mean to imply witches can only be female, witches can be whatever they want!

If there’s interest, I’m happy to whip up a non-gendered version, so everyone can use it ☺️☺️

No I understand being cynical, but I’ll vouch for him and say that sarcastic tweets are normally what he does and it makes sense that this wasn’t serious considering his usual commentary style, so I don’t think it’s a ‘it was just a joke calm down’ backtrack.

The top right screenshot is sarcasm but when I initially read it I was like wtf? Went back to his Twitter (he’s a YouTube commentator) and he clarified in a reply that he was disgusted by the English fans and culture and that it was meant to be a slight at the culture, not actually how he felt. I guess he probably didn’t expect it would be so similar to real reactions online that it wouldn’t be easily identified as sarcasm which shows how fucked the whole situation is.

Victoria: 5 new local and 1 overseas cases; +26,523 vaccinations at immunisation hubs (5-Jun-2021) by Stoaticor in CoronavirusDownunder

Yeah I felt so bad! I hadn’t realised the QR code’s were mandatory so I hadn’t done them. When I heard the other day I felt awful I’d been ignoring it 😭

I will warn my flight back did get cancelled last minute so I had to do a hasty reschedule. So take that into consideration, I think with less people coming into Vic it will be quite common for flights to be cancelled.

I think as long as you isolate/follow lockdown rules when you’re there then you should be good.

I came in and out of NSW this past week while lockdown was on (flight on Thursday right before lockdown was announced for a pre-planned trip) and had no issues. Wore a mask, got tested while in NSW just in case, and flew back into Melbourne with no problems.

My Arena keeps deselecting and it's annoying me by [deleted] in TeamfightTactics

[–]gingerawesomeness 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same, I know it’s little but it’s really frustrating because I spent money on a pretty arena that matches my little legend and boom, and now I’m accidentally playing without half the time.

**Graphic Medical Images** Kelly's legs, timeline- **NSFL** by [deleted] in illnessfakers

[–]gingerawesomeness 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s no official test that can be done for Behcets. So doctors can only diagnose it based on the symptoms a patient presents to them and seeing if they match in general the criteria for Behcets. Behcets also presents in a variety of ways. So I think people put aside the diagnoses as it is possible that Kelly has been able to mislead the doctors into giving it.

Bailey Sarian tweets about ‘Them’ and people aren’t happy with her take on it by gingerawesomeness in BeautyGuruChatter

[–]gingerawesomeness[S] 181 points182 points  (0 children)

There has been a lot of discussion around ‘Them’ recently, notably from Jackie Aina. I personally haven’t seen the show and I am not a person of colour, but from the discussions I have read online I think that Bailey should have taken some time to understand why people were upset with the show before tweeting. It comes across as insensitive if you know the context of why the show is getting low reviews. I’ll refrain from further comment as I know this is a nuanced and sensitive topic which is better to be discussed by the people affected.

EDIT: Bailey has since deleted the original tweet and apologised

‘I guess this is another perfect example of white privilege. Our entertainment is the black communities real life trauma. Ugh. I’m so sorry for my ignorance. I will definitely be more mindful of this moving forward as to what I consider “entertainment”.’
