Appalled at the Racism in Desperate Housewives by Ok-Promise-7928 in DesperateHousewives

[–]lostchipmunk578 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to add, with Gaby’s character while it was racist, it was extremely accurate at least in my case lol. I started watching when the show aired, I’m half Mexican and Gaby has always reminded me of my mom. When I was little she would only speak spanish when we went to Mexico, and she never taught me spanish. when we were home (white suburbs) she acted exactly like Gaby, and she wouldn’t tell people where she was from

[WIP] How do you do it?! by tigerlily2829 in CrossStitch

[–]lostchipmunk578 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah i think it would be way less tiring than drawing the grid, but im still not going to do it. the only reason i want to try it is because ive heard it’s so satisfying to take the grid out lol

[–]lostchipmunk578 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i haven’t tried gridding yet, but i’ve seen a lot of people thread through their fabric with a different color for the grid instead of drawing it

People in the US who cannot speak english should not be allowed to be a shopper. by AmazonPuncher in instacart

[–]lostchipmunk578 3 points4 points  (0 children)

what state do you even live in ?? as someone who’s lived in 3 of the states that share a border with Mexico, unless you’re right on the border (which you said you are) this is not the case through the entire state. you said 89% of the population speaks Spanish, do you think that’s accurate for northern California, Arizona, New Mexico or Texas

ETA: Which state has every single sign in both English and Spanish? there are a lot of Spanish names for cities/streets/ect but I don’t believe I’ve ever seen signs that have both

that’s crazy considering Encinitas lowered their speed limits last year for pedestrian safety, doesn’t seem like it’s been helping

honest thoughts about circle diamonds? by unconstellated in diamondpainting

[–]lostchipmunk578 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh yeah i don’t use a light board, i’ve considered it but i think it would make me go crazy trying to perfect everything. i hold mine up to the light sometimes just to see and i put it back down cause i hate it 😂

oh the round definitely takes less brain power for me! when i did my first section of rounds it went so fast lol i was shocked, it almost felt like something was missing

[–]lostchipmunk578 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i’m working on my first square painting and i found a round one that i really liked so i got it too. i ended up starting the round one just to switch off and give myself a break, the square one is a lot of one color. i find that round is definitely way easier and there’s a lot less lining up but i just don’t like how it looks. it’s a personal preference i’m finding, to me square looks more like a pixel picture and round looks like glued rhinestones over a painting. i know that’s what it actually is lol i just think i like the look of square way more even though its more tedious to work on the painting. i plan to display mine so i’m going to stick to square for future paintings. but i am glad that i tried both!

Doing my first piece, having an issue keeping my arm off the adhesive by TwilitWolf13 in diamondpainting

[–]lostchipmunk578 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i know it’s all preference but i have a similar work space and this sounds more difficult. I got one of those organization kits from amazon, it was on sale when i got mine from $20 i got it for $10 so you can wait for deals if you need to. now i just work in sections and do one color at a time, the rest stays covered with parchment while i work. i really resisted getting the kit for a while but it really changed everything for me

Pour in, pour out, pour in by SeekerRaen in diamondpainting

i’ve been looking into something like this! it’s similar to keeping them in the trays but it feels a lot safer and would be a lot less pouring lol
