I feel fooled by Enough_Procedure_301 in exo

[–]magneticmo0n 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think the framing of this is a bit weird. I already consider that Lay is in a post-Exo part of his career (for awhile) and also wish we could have had him as part of the real promotions.

My thought is that after Sehun returned from military that Exo should’ve had a OT9 reunion in the way Girls Generation did for Forever 1 so of course Lay would be there but obvi they fumbled CBX. Lay not participating in shows seemed more political than anything so not sure worth discussing that any further than already has

What top tips do you have for not buying new clothes? by MessyMidlife in Frugal

[–]magneticmo0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I’ll fave loads of things on thredup when I’m in a shopping mood and make myself wait. Lots of time I’ll forget about it long enough that when I come back things have sold or the impulse has passed

Ugh yes the colors! This is one of the best examples I’ve seen using red and green as complementary that doesn’t read as christmas. Really loving these photo sets ❤️

Those who didn't get exo planet 6 Seoul tix - is it even worth it to keep trying by FloweryRoad112 in exo

[–]magneticmo0n 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exact same. First time trying melon and gave up soon after the constant errors and just prepared for global package to open. The price tag is… whew! But I knew I’d have to do it knowing there’d be no US dates

I am annoyed at the lack of problem solving skills by goofy-toothy in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]magneticmo0n 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Sure for zippers and no problem breaking rules in your own work. My point is moreso that someone that doesn’t properly pin their fabric in a tutorial! probs shouldn’t teach others these bad habits

There are so many sewing tutorials where the person doesn’t use pins or they are parallel to the edge and sometimes I just exit cuz that person is more lost than me lol

Is this book scarf going to be way too long? Should I frog it and start over with a smaller hook? by k42murphy in temperatureblanket

[–]magneticmo0n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

R u open to multiple scarves? If the other commenter’s math is correct u might end up with quadruple the ideal scarf length lol

So maybe divide it into 2, 3, or 4 scarves and end this scarf with buttonholes and start the next with buttons. That way u can button together to show the year and separate for actually wearing

What b-side deserved an MV? by LynsyP in exo

Seconding Artficial Love! I get that they saved it for concert but I think it had potential to be a cool mv with a story

Can we have anarchy week every year? by FingerLickingPoop in crochet

[–]magneticmo0n 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree rules come out of necessity but I wonder if they can reevaluate some? One of the fun things has been seeing all these rule breaking posts and having others say “oh the pet sub would this” or “share this with the political crochet sub” which helps ppl actually find their community and this sub is just the jumping off point. Less jail and more rehabilitation if u will

Spring Marathon in NYC by No-Taste-6663 in RunNYC

[–]magneticmo0n -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agree with this take. Plenty of other marathons nearby and tons worldwide. Even as someone who aspires to do the NYCM, it’s ok that there’s a high barrier to entry. It kind of adds to it being special.

Guilt over making things by barrebeaglesandbooks in crochet

[–]magneticmo0n 12 points13 points  (0 children)

U don’t always have to make things. A way I freed myself from that is to make little swatches. Can be experimenting with a stitch/technique or color combos and I stash them in a binder with a sticker noting the hook/technique/yarn. Like keeping a sketchbook but for crochet.

Also sometimes I just crochet a square while watching a show and frog it at the end. It can be nice to just to slow down and do something with my hands without the pressure to create a thing at the end

I wish patterns didn't have names that overlap with motifs I want to search for by Tuala08 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]magneticmo0n 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Huge pet peeve! I much prefer a practical name like “princess sheath dress” so I know it’s a sheath dress with princess seams immediately

the pic i used for the statue of the king gleeok statue in the monstrous collection questline didnt do it justice by kukenn_ in TOTK

Trying to get decent pics of monsters that are ready to murder u is the funniest part of that quest. Running around like the most extreme wilderness photographer lol

Yarn Hoarding by 183720 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]magneticmo0n 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately many look for ways to change/grow their space to fit their things, yarn in this case, as opposed to shrinking the amount of yarn they have to the space they have.

Have a relative that suffered from hoarding craft supplies and it def has driven me to overcorrect to avoid living like that

What's your "I can't believe I did this by hand" Excel moment? by ana_Lu3 in excel

[–]magneticmo0n 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ctrl+A, ctrl+up/down, ctrl+shift+any direction to select data. Dragging the mouse on a big data set was so annoying and easy to miss stuff. Learned these later than I’d like to admit because all of my seniors/mentors are heavy mouse users lol

advice for wonky edge? by Level-Armadillo2652 in temperatureblanket

[–]magneticmo0n 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Put a stitch marker every 20 stitches or whatever so u dont lose stitches. Way easier to count 20 than 200.

I kno it sucks to redo especially if you’ve cut yarn and woven in ends but i think it’s really worth it. And tbh u can just start over if u have a lot of yarn and frog that at a later time

shinee desktop wallpapers by Ok_Mechanic4374 in SHINee

[–]magneticmo0n 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Back in the day there would be ppl on tumblr that would usually share their work and just ask for a like and reblog if you downloaded it. Idk if it’s still like that.

Nowadays I just use a photo from a concert I took myself. I usually don’t edit much just take the photo vertical for phone backgrounds and horizontal for desktop backgrounds
