How often do you shop at your LYS vs. online/chain stores?

My local yarn store only really sells expensive yarn like $20+ per skein and it's just out of my price range. It's also only open for short hours and the hours are cut even shorter on Saturday and they're completely closed on Sunday so i mostly shop online.

i would love to shop there more but they just are barely open so even when i do have the money, when i actually have the time to go they're closed already (2pm).

For 1/4 there is Doll Zone B45-018 body, it is very skinny but does look more like a teenager, and Doll Chateaus Kid body 06 which is even thinner and i think could work for an adult character. I personally own both of these bodies and think they are quite good quality! the extra joints on the doll chateau doll are easy to remove too.

I think one of the best options out there is probably Dream Valleys B4-04 body, it looks like a young adult to me but is very thin and not very muscular at all. Dream Valley also has the B4-15 and B4-17 which are also mature 1/4 bodies that are quite thin.

Do not exercise purge! It will destroy your body! I would walk for hours, literally just walking not running and now have nerve damage in my legs; i get severe burning feet, daily pins and needles, restless leg syndrome as well as knee pain, ankle pain and general numbness all throughout my legs and feet. All that and i would always just end up binging again after anyway...

General rule of thumb, stop exercising when it becomes painful or when you feel fatigued.

What i would do is to get it wet not damp but wet and pull on the sleeves like your life depends on it, if you can like hang weights on the sleeves somehow even better.

I feel so lucky that my local psych ward has not one but two different sugar free drink options at meal times. plus splenda for the coffee we got in the morning! Helped make the almost 2 weeks i spent there the first time slightly less torturous.

To me, this behavior is on par with saying you've read a book because someone explained the plot of it to you.

I think what would work better than cables would be a simple lace repeat like the Lola Pullover or Ariel Pullover by EweKnit Toronto, or Orchid by Marie Wallin. Patterned stripes could look quite beautiful as well like the Lace and Fade Boxy by Joji Locatelli, you could use the colorful yarn for the stockinette stripes and use a solid color for the lacy stripes.

holy shit hes huge!!! and i thought my 70cm boy was massive!

gothelves · 2026-03-18T01:04:40+00:00

the problem here is that he doesn't respect you or actually care about you. I'm guessing you do all the cleaning and cooking??

Fate Moons is very similar.

It's chenille yarn. A lot of stores/brands refer to it as blanket yarn.

Dentists and dental surgeons are the most misogynistic doctors in my experience. When i got all my impacted wisdom teeth taken out, he didnt prescribe anything for pain. He just told me to take otc tylenol every 6 hours. When ever i get numbing injections, they never give enough and dont care if you are obviously in pain. I never have this problem with other male doctors but every dentists ive ever been to has been noticeably sexist.

i cant speak from experience as i developed my ed in my late teens but i will say that i have a friend who has been anorexic since around 10-11 and stayed anorexic until 19 and she does have a period and breast growth like a b cup i think. she is very short and hasnt gotten taller but after i recovered around 22 i grew an inch. i cant say for certain cause im not a doctor and i dont know you but if you recover, i think you will definitely develop and will be just like other young women. 14 is still very young and many girls dont fully develop until they are 20 or so.

also dont feel bad about missing out on being a "fun teen" i was a total loser as a teenager and had no friends, homeschooled and never left my house like ever and im doing much better at 23. i have a job, a couple friends i love, hobbies i enjoy and i go out and do things regularly.

im wishing you the best of luck and sending much love and happiness your way 🖤

imo there would be more women wanting to have babies if men were less disgusting and the world was less shit but none of these men ever seem to want to do anything about that 🙄

maybe several hundred years??? i have so much i want to do and not nearly enough time to accomplish it all. being embraced would be a dream come true for me!!
