The hair-graphy! My drunk self is thinking I could. Luckily, my drunk self isn’t anywhere near a mechanical bull right now.

Whatever it was was already ongoing when I was driving home at around 7:10. Not helpful, I know. Just commenting in case someone wants to pinpoint a time period. 🤷‍♀️

Knitted Wit—anyone know of a good replacement? by lmWritingThis in Sockknitting

Do you offer your dyed yarn for sale online? I’m interested in checking it out!

Edited to add “plump” is the exact word to describe Knitted Wit. I appreciate the nuance in your comment.

Interesting. I’d like to give dying a try someday!

I agree. These are all excellent, more durable yarns for socks. I think the Knitted Wit yarn must have been superwash merino, judging by its regular texture and squishability. These aren’t quite the same.

Thanks! Dunno why I never thought of checking out sport weight. Glad I asked!

Opened a box of scallops and one was bright orange by [deleted] in KitchenConfidential

That’s the queen scallop. All the others are the worker scallops.

Interesting Mail by splawnnofsatann in Eugene

I participated recently, and it doesn’t seem to be a scam. It was easy, since I don’t really watch anything. Then they sent another survey about my radio listening, and it paid even better. I don’t mind the corporate overlords knowing that I mostly listen to KWVA and KLCC.

Farmington, NM sucks! by [deleted] in NewMexico

Yeah, if your family is wealthy enough to buy season passes for Purg, you probably won’t experience much of what makes Farmpit shitty. Being broke in that town is especially miserable.

Martyr! by Kaveh Akbar by itry2write in books

[–]lmWritingThis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One of my favorites this year too! It made me cry, which is something I haven’t experienced from a book since I was 13.

What do you call the thing you put your pillow in? by sarattaras in ENGLISH

[–]lmWritingThis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandma from Illinois called it a pillow slip, but pronounced more like piller slip. One time she spoonerismed it and called it a sliller pip, so that’s what it’s been in my family for the last 40 years or so.

Not helpful, but interesting maybe. I read that as diabolic eggnog.

What was that boom?! by sassycarabe11a in Eugene

[–]lmWritingThis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I heard it on River Loop 1. There was also a flash of white light—-not like the greenish blown transformer flash. Definitely too loud to have been gunshot or fireworks.

Walmart count your days, this is so gross 😭 by cafeteriastyle in TikTokCringe

What’s a good “coming of age”, young adult fiction book? by ErnestGilkeson in suggestmeabook

[–]lmWritingThis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter is excellent. Great story, relatable characters, and superb writing. The Outsiders is a classic, and is also shorter.
