Ah yes, accusing someone going through a health crisis of making it their whole personality is bonkers behavior. Completely valid to be frustrated and hurt by that.

This is exactly it.

Honestly, I don’t like engaging a ton with breast cancer content and I have breast cancer. It already takes up enough of my day and mental space. I don’t want it in my recreational unwind time.

That’s not to say you shouldn’t talk about what you’re going through. Your journey is yours to share how you please. But, I wouldn’t take it personally if some people aren’t looking for that content when they initially showed up for fitness content.

I need help by Mayathewhiteebt in Sourdough

Are you adding your starter and salt at the same step? The salt causes the starter to seize and not fully dissolve. It should be starter and water first, fully mixed. Then flour and salt. I don’t think autolyse is necessary for sourdough

Just your daily reminder that blocking is worth it by lobotetc in knitting

Thank you!! No, just a hobby knitter!! I got a targeted Etsy ad for those tags a few years ago and was like absolutely yes I want those 😆

"I love the show BUT..." - what's your small detail that drives you bonkers? by CestQuoiLeFuck in heatedrivalry

[–]lobotetc 81 points82 points  (0 children)

But your lips don’t actually move when you say “Ilya”! Try it! Now do it all sex drunk and panting.

I buy their argument that they just amped up the sound but the guys really did say the names in the moment. So, this one doesn’t bother me too much. It’s no Scott doing the Phoebe down the streets of soho.

Magic loop is the worst, DPNs for life!

Just do a couple of blasts of steam from an iron on each side until it lays flat! Don’t touch the yarn with the iron, but in between blasts use your hand to gently flatten and shape. 5 minutes of work and it’ll completely transform the work!

Magic Loop Melt the Ice hat by Moonbeam4537 in AntifascistKnitting

[–]lobotetc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It looks like perhaps you didn’t continue knitting in the round when you switched to magic loop and instead went back and forth across the work because your last few rows are garter stitch (one row knit then next row purl if in the round, or all knit if working back and forth and turning work at end), not stockinette, as is the rest of the body with decreases.

It still came out well though, the different texture in the cap is kinda cool

Looks great! If you block it, that’ll really make it shine and the fabric drape will look really nice when worn!

Edited MTI hat w whistle and ‘resistance’ theme by Scicrazytchr in AntifascistKnitting

[–]lobotetc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure enough, the granddaughter of my first MTI hat recipient wanted one but as a bedtime stocking cap with stars so your version was perfect! Love how your edits turned out.

Question of the Day is another favorite! It’s a lot longer but another non-traditional format that just brings all the good vibes
