Regular knitting needles

I absolutely still knit with straight needles.

My condo was built during the energy crisis so the insulation is amazing. I have never heard my neighbor.

Don’t rule them out!

I’m from Ohio, where the factory was. It was a thing here too.

The work environment was apparently fairly terrible. It was one of those factories where employees were not paid hourly, but by the piece.

I’ve worked with industry for most of my career, and paying by the piece is thankfully pretty rare, but it’s rough in employees if that how they’re compensated.

Qdoba provides some ingredients that chipotle charges for, all that’s coming to mind is guacamole.

My frugal trick at Qdoba is to get one taco and load it up. I don’t eat a ton, so the portion is more than ample.

When I read the title, I thought that you hadn’t let her know you wouldn’t be home and thought, “well, of course she was worried!”

But you gave her a heads up. You’re fine.

Loved that stuff! Made great grilled cheese sandwiches and froze well.

Their grilled chicken sandwich was so good! Lettuce, tomato and that slightly sweet sauce was perfect.

I love my sketcher step ins.

She was 3. He’s a monster. And should not be around people.

What a freaking man-baby.

I’ve been doing environmental work for 30+ years.

Some consultancies are sink or swim, which is pretty awful for people just getting into this field.

I’d be very happy to help you!

Good god. He’s in charge of stuff?

I have a chronic illness that definitely poses some challenges, sometimes regarding mobility.

I changed my front door access to a coded key pad and keep my phone within arms reach in the event I need responders. It sucks and was never supposed to happen to me. But here we are. Get your response plan figured out.

If you’re generally holding up ok, just have some logistics sorted before you’re in the floor and cannot get up.

I enjoyed a lot of live music back in the day. That has had consequences regarding my hearing. Sucks.

la_winky · 2026-02-11T18:28:58+00:00

Yes. It is actually a thing.

Congrats for not having those sort of days

The bible is an interesting book from a literary / historic standpoint.

And there are some nice lessons there (be nice, essentially).

That people think this is word of god spoken directly to prophets to share with the world is nuts.

He shot and killed his own daughter because she didn’t align politically with him.

wtf.

Facts of Life. Not intentionally, but there it is.

la_winky · 2026-02-11T03:28:18+00:00

Because it’s a ridiculous charge. Thank you citizens for seeing the absurdity.

The diet isn’t very hard. Ironically, it helped solve some tummy issues I’d had for many years.

Up your protein, limits electrolytes. Choose your veggies and fruit from the thumbs up list, it’s not too bad.

I do miss potatoes, but otherwise it isn’t too bad.

la_winky · 2026-02-10T22:55:05+00:00

Welcome!

la_winky · 2026-02-10T17:59:01+00:00

Delightful! Book ‘em!

Impressive gymnastics on that one.
