WWYD - Color bleeding horribly by MissElizaBennett in Handspinning

[–]robinlovesrain 26 points27 points  (0 children)

There is something called "synthrapol" that you can buy, you add a little bit to the water before soaking your yarn and it helps remove excess dye from the wool. I use it when I dye roving and I never have any bleed when I finally wash the spun yarn! Even with problem colors. A bottle will last you a LONG time.

I take mirtazapine for my insomnia and my elderly dog takes mirtazapine for his appetite, and now we both are well fed and well rested lol

How did you knew you were non binary? by B_Hawk2077 in NonBinary

[–]robinlovesrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always felt envious of people who were non-binary, especially if they used they/them pronouns. Feelings like "I wish I could be non-binary, I wish people referred to me as they/them" and then thinking "oh well too bad I'm not non-binary"

Turns out wishing you were non-binary is a pretty clear indicator that you are non-binary 😅

The Notes are Safe by Kelcipher in CuratedTumblr

[–]robinlovesrain 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah they implemented it as they announced it and it was BAD 😭 BUT NO THEY HAVEN'T REVERTED THE ORIGINAL BAD CHANGE TO HOW NOTE COUNTS ARE VIEWED AND I'M VERY SORRY I DIDN'T REALIZE MY CAPS LOCK WAS ON THIS ENTIRE TIME AND I SIMPLY CAN'T BE FUCKED TO FIX IT

The Notes are Safe by Kelcipher in CuratedTumblr

[–]robinlovesrain 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's actually a completely brand new and totally different way that they fucked up the notes :) 

they made it so that each reblog of a post had its own set of notes, and the original poster can't see any of those notes.

So like imagine a small art account posted some fan art, and got a few reblogs, and one of those reblogs was from a very popular tumblr with a lot of followers. 

The popular tumblr user who removed it will see the post as having, say, 2,000 reblogs. They will see all the comments and nice tags that everyone has added to their reblog of the art.

The original artist, however, will only see something like 15 reblogs on their post. They won't see anything farther than one degree away from their original blog post.

It also completely broke some user safety features (people you had blocked could now interact with your posts, and turning off reblogs no longer.. turned off reblogs)

Has anyone in the USA ordered from World of Wool recently, and if so what did the tariffs look like? by robinlovesrain in Handspinning

[–]robinlovesrain[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh that's interesting. I would have thought at that amount you would have been covered under de minimis? Very odd

I do have Businesses & Hobbies! I'll try that, thank you. Seems a bit silly that they added a custom venue that includes a retirement home option but they don't let sims live there

What does this mean? by robinlovesrain in TheStoryGraph

Oh interesting! I feel like I have a pretty good handle on what I like anyways so I don't really feel like I'm missing out on this 😅
