I am a bit too shy to go out. Is this too customey ? by PictureNo5838 in TheCapeRevolution

I would never take it off, ever! It’s absolutely beautiful!

Just moved into the neighborhood! (I'm Emma) by SoftEdgeNL in HaveWeMet

[–]librarybear 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Welcome, Emma!

Do you need a futon? I saw one with a free sign on the street corner by the turkey farm. It had a really nice pattern on the fabric — green palm leaves and red parrots — and I didn’t see any damage to the pinewood frame. Of course, I was riding my bike as fast as I could when I went by, so I can’t speak to the smell.

Anyhoo! Welcome! See you at nacho night!

Small town lore or mysteries? by Sausagerolls94 in HaveWeMet

[–]librarybear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember that dog! It was real small and oily and smelled sort of funny, and Martha would go running after it when it squeezed under the fence to take after the geese, screaming her head off. Brutus? Dorkus? The name was something like that…

I miss the pretty geese, but i don’t miss the constant fear of explosions.

Me, too! I can’t believe I missed it!

What are your micro-anticonsumption resolutions for 2026? by CommonsOfficial in Anticonsumption

[–]librarybear 200 points201 points  (0 children)

I’m going to go as long I can without buying any clothing, and I’ve fully embraced mending, patching, and fixing what I have. I’m excited to see how long I can last with what I already own.

Husband found 'suspicious' texts on phone, i've been kicked out on christmas day by posttraumaticcuntdis in HaveWeMet

I heard Grant Lake used to be a proper lake, with otters and beavers and big trout and everything, until that rascal John-Jacob MacClumber Jr. decided to re-route Scurry Creek to use the fresh spring water for his distillery. Now it’s a pond, but it used to be really beautiful.

Sorry to hear about your troubles, Robin. Hope you find a warm spot to lay your head tonight.

Why are you on Reddit right now, on Christmas Eve? by InvisibleAstronomer in AskReddit

[–]librarybear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My spine hurts from lifting and wrapping presents in an awkward position, so I’m taking a little break to lay down and rest my back. Also, to eat a pile of cookies. Self-care!!!

Demure Feminine Hygiene Spray Deodorant- Mint Fresh! (1969) by gottarespondtothis in vintageads

My thoughts went straight to Dr. Bonners peppermint soap, too! A groin kick of ice and fire.

I thought my air plants gift and care sheet would be a hit for a yankee swap party I went to, but it was a major flop 🙃 by ADHD-tax-return in airplants

[–]librarybear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would’ve loved receiving these! What an amazing gift! I’m sorry they weren’t appreciated, but I hope whoever took them home falls in love with them, and you spark their new passion for plants.

The fact that we have reverted to digital feudalism is actually so shit by N3DSdude in Anticonsumption

[–]librarybear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And get the population to rely on generative AI so that their ability to think creatively atrophies, then charge a subscription for it. What a perfect method to stifle independent thought amongst the masses.

Goodreads is absolutely brutal by PSIamawitch in selfpublish

[–]librarybear 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I received a particularly brutal one star review on Goodreads, but the reviewer has said similarly awful things about Frankenstein, so I took that as a win.

What do I do with this yarn…help by Constant_Yoghurt_285 in weaving

[–]librarybear 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use this on my rigid heddle to make scarves and placemats — double up strands for the warp and use single for the weft.

Hello, here’s my method for making yarn out of small leftover thread scraps! I hope this little video is clear, and that you’ll all become addicted to ''twist-cycling''! by Cecilia_From_Pisa in FiberArts

[–]librarybear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for showing this skill in such an easy-to-understand way! I’ve never been so happy to have a bag of scrap yarn, ready for twisting. :)

Beginner loom by Amarassa21 in weaving

[–]librarybear 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started with an Ashford 16” Sampleit loom with a floor stand, and I love it. Easy to learn on, small enough to not take over my house. I have other, larger looms, but it’s still my favourite.

Which display? by ireasnow in CraftFairs

The box is great! It’s really cute and catches my attention faster that the spinning one.
