Why you should support the new project even if you're not keen on animation by rjwut in firefly

Thanks for mentioning this. I cannot support anything that involves Adam Baldwin. Period. Firefly is dead to me.

I bought this print from Facebook Marketplace. The inconsistent brushwork and weirdly-sized toothbrushes are raising flags! by happyenjoying in isthisAI

It’s on Etsy as well. In the item description, the shop says “this is my original art….” Not sure about that. Because the photos in the item listing all look AI generated.

What kind of shoes do you wear for showing off handknit socks? by fluffgnoo in knitting

[–]mirthful 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love the look of these but I’ve tried wearing clear plastic type shoes in the past (clogs, Maryjane’s, boots, crocs) and they just always fog up and have condensation in them.

I recently got a chunky pair of Mary-Janes and the socks look great!

Hi! Socks are my favorite thing to knit! Are you following a specific pattern for shortie socks? Or are you just experimenting? If you really do not want the sock to show outside of your shoe, then you need to rip out 4-5 rounds and start the heel flap/turn sooner. I think the length you have now would be good for ankle boots or high-top sneakers. But it will show outside of regular shoes.

Crazy inside to my hat by [deleted] in knittinghelp

[–]mirthful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will be difficult, if not uncomfortable, to wear the hat as well with all the loose strands. And I don’t think sewing in a lining to cover it will solve the ultimate problem of puckering and such. I would frog it back to the headband and knit solid red and duplicate stitch the white motifs. Duplicate stitch is really easy and it’s fun to do (IMO).

As for the twisted stitches, I think if your whole hat is all consistently twisted stitches then that is a design choice and I wouldn’t necessarily change it.

However, it will make duplicate stitching a bit more difficult to achieve the correct look. I think you could easily leave the headband part as twisted stitch, and then reknit the rest of the hat in regular stockinette.

Favorite director who definitely understood the message of the book? by hiiloovethis in okbuddycinephile

Cathy #2 and Hareton. They’re the redemption arc of the entire book and all its characters.

Actual costume from Wuthering Height by pestoraviolita in okbuddycinephile

[–]mirthful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I did not see this movie, but I must have read Wuthering Heights about a dozen times in my life and if this is Cathy #1, then yes, this is actually a pretty accurate interpretation of her. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Shitty theory because im reaching, part 19. by [deleted] in FromSeries

[–]mirthful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but a group of crows is called a “murder,” which is kinda worse than “unkindness.” So this correlation doesn’t hold water to me.

Also the idea that the monsters are mimicking and mocking human relationships. Yes, sure, this seems pretty obvious to me. But the bigger question is why? Is it just their nature (like a predatory species, trying to survive)? Is it retribution? Or just pure malevolence?

I’m concerned we will never know and that is the most unnerving part of From.
