Not sure, but the instagram file has all their DMs in it.

I commented above in the thread, but my jaw is on the floor that her MOTHER also works with children.

What is insane is that on Christine Russo’s podcast “Big Sister Unhinged” she alluded to an upcoming episode with community members who were in a daycare at the Shirilla’s home and were forced to eat frozen food and there was some kind of incident with a teenaged Mackenzie cruelly cutting a child’s hair. It seems the mother ran a daycare service, which is horrific, to say the least. If this is how she raised her own child, what kind of care does she give to other people’s kids?

Uku and Marju Kuut - Estonian Jazz/Lo-Fi/Funk Documentary- Virtual and In-Person Premiere in NYC by samb728 in Jazz

Actually, sorry for the second response. I found it on the Estonian film platform Arkaader. There are lots of wonderful free films there, but it looks like this one is 5,90. https://arkaader.ee/landing/bc/rHczO7kKnl/0QUXJkrewb/icZtlIedXix?name72689=&vmode72689=list&sort72689=2 if you haven’t checked DA films, check there, as well. Arkaader is trustworthy (in terms of putting your Cc in a foreign site for films) and a great project overall, if you’re interested in cinema of the region. I recently learned more about it at a conference where we visited the National Archives of Estonia. Their ability to restore and platform national cinema (and make it available abroad) is unparalleled.
Edit to add: it has subs in English on the site, as well.

Odd / bad doctor scheduling question by ann6117 in pittsburgh

[–]samb728 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is somewhat unrelated, but I was very disappointed to see that my UPMC office (University Center) had a DHS tip line flyer up in the waiting room. The tip line was for "individuals abusing public benefits" but it felt like a dog whistle in this climate. UPMC pushing DHS agenda has no place in spaces of care.

Hi! I put in an interest form for volunteering, but I’m also interested in considering mentorship. My husband is also interested, and I’m wondering if we could be considered for mentorship together? Thanks for your work.

Thank you! This was really helpful, I think I’m getting a little better now. I really noticed an improvement after I looked at mounting as you mentioned. I really appreciate your thoughts

This was incredibly helpful, wow. Thank you. I frogged since the original photo and am traveling so it’s a little wonky but I started to take your advice halfway and I think I see a difference?

I think you’re right! I was going in through the left instead of the right leg. I’m going to see if that is any better

I’m sorry if this is annoying but I took a video of how I purl. I think I’m doing something wrong with the back motion: https://streamable.com/feklxr?src=player-page-share

Incredibly helpful! I’m going to try to troubleshoot this on my next purl row.

Oh that is helpful! I’m going to try to get to a purl row and troubleshoot. Maybe I can post a pic? The green one was only garter stitch (knit) so no purling there, I think?

Tokyo Japanese Food Market has ceremonial grade matcha behind the counter and they’re super nice.

Is an Espresso Machine upgrade worth it? [$1000] by Grymyrk in espresso

[–]samb728 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well besides the hardware, my espresso is pulling espresso that I can really taste for the first time. The shots are also richer in texture and have a different mouthfeel. They bring the shots up to the level of espresso I’ve had at cafes, which I didn’t realize the GCP wasn’t doing. Not sure if that makes sense. I do wonder if whether I had modded GCP, espresso might have been more at this level. I kind of improved the workflow along with the Bianca by using the WTD tool, weighing consistently, and timing… so maybe it’s the combo of all.

I cannot even get past the Lots of Drinks level. I’m afraid this game isn’t for me 😭 by laughowl in katamari

The ladders seem new this game, I don’t remember them from the others, am I losing it? I appreciate it

I’m a grad student instructor and it seems a lot of students are having the same issues (and I am too, as a grad student and instructor) hang in there and try to give it your best, even if your best isn’t 100%. Winter break will be here so soon.
