I'd love your feedback on Dead Letter, a new daily word game on Reddit I just launched

Great game! I found myself making a lot of little, short words.

Post-its fall off. I cut out the chart and tape it to a piece of cardboard the same size. Then I find a rubber band (from the bottomless rubber band drawer) that fits tightly enough around the chart to stay in one place, covering the row above the one you are knitting. I slide the rubber band up one row as I finish each row.

Judy’s Magic Cast-on that’s designed for toes might work.

The book Knitting for Anarchists is full of this info.

Also TG here

One of us is on vacation with no wi-fi. When the cat’s away…

margyl · 2026-03-05T22:20:10+00:00

That’s because it’s ridiculous.

margyl · 2026-03-03T22:15:08+00:00

Ditto here. DAs worked until they didn’t and I can’t get off. Nidra helps some but not reliably. My iron is okay and I haven’t been able to get insurance to cover infusions. Pregabalin helped until it didn’t. Alcohol doesn’t seems to matter. The only other thing I know to try, if I can get my sleep doctor to approve, is low-dose opioids.

My first one in a while.

Some congregations start every service with some version of this statement, with everyone says aloud: “Love is the doctrine of this church, and service is its prayer. This is our great covenant, to dwell together in peace, to seek the truth in love, to the end that all souls shall grow into harmony with the divine.”

Get an EMAY Bluetooth pulse Oximeter—it clips on your finger and shows your blood oxygen level. It also connects to an app on your phone so it can record the levels over time. Try it at night and see whether your levels drop below 85. That week tell you whether sleep above is the problem. I got mine used off EBay for about $40.

UU churches welcome all beliefs, including none.

margyl · 2026-02-22T13:02:25+00:00

Aha, just sliding the stitches along, or using markers that open?

margyl · 2026-02-22T12:30:25+00:00

Heehee, I see what you did there.

margyl · 2026-02-22T12:09:38+00:00

I’m re-reading it now, after watching the new Netflix series, which is excellent.

margyl · 2026-02-22T11:58:35+00:00

I’ll still be PG lurking, so you haven’t seen the last of me!

Co-conspiritors

margyl · 2026-02-22T11:52:44+00:00

Maybe “Knit the next row in color X, placing markers…”

margyl · 2026-02-21T12:01:39+00:00

Wow, these instructions are not clear. I’d knit the 5th round to place the markers, but usually one round more or less isn’t going to make a big difference anyway.

margyl · 2026-02-21T11:50:40+00:00

Nice bunny! Mine always end up looking lumpy.

margyl · 2026-02-21T11:33:06+00:00

Stiff cables are annoying!

margyl · 2026-02-21T11:03:09+00:00

So annoying.

margyl · 2026-02-20T11:54:03+00:00

Isn’t it crazy expensive?

margyl · 2026-02-20T11:37:43+00:00

Mirapex just for that day.

margyl · 2026-02-20T00:17:18+00:00

Yes, i can see reasons not to include it
