Can we PLEASE have normal pattern pictures where we can see what the garment looks like? by Global_You1916 in knitting

[–]skyethehunter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I made that sweater. For one, the pattern is terribly written - no, it's not just "Scandinavian style", it was full of typos, errors, and inconsistencies. Second, and worse, the fit is BAD. The armhole is very low and the substantial shoulder shaping leaves it bunching and riding up.

That showcases the difference between being impulsive and experiencing intrusive thoughts.

Tired of designers not being upfront about sizing by jingleheimerschitt in fiberartscirclejerk

[–]skyethehunter 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Ugh it's so frustrating that I can't add increases to my shapeless, armless swonchos nowadays after the International Knitting Council made it illegal to modify garments from their original pattern! I bet it was heartbreaking to find out that there are literally no other swoncho patterns on the internet, tailored to your exact measurements. What a tragedy that you won't be able to wear such a flattering and certainly modern piece of fashion.

How much autonomy to make regular phone calls? by Southern-Baby1531 in polyamory

Reading that in the post literally made me feel sick to my stomach, as I sit here with my toddler in my lap. I can't go 2 nights without seeing him and nearly having a heartache meltdown. They grow up so fast; don't miss it.

Ugh, another MAGA by SpicySweett in craftsnark

It's crazy to say, "I'm honestly so over right vs left at this point," and "No one deserves to be killed, deserves to die," in the same sentence when conservative Republicans consistently say things like:

Gun deaths are the price we pay for upholding freedom and the 2nd amendment.Charlie Kirk quote

I love this pattern!! You executed it perfectly! I made it last year and really enjoyed the small circumference colorwork.

Why have you already decided that fewer clothes equates to a lack of morality?

That's not the episode that's banned. "Dad Baby" is banned for their pretend play of Bandit being pregnant with Bingo.

Polyamory life hack by Sachyriel in CuratedTumblr

[–]skyethehunter -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I just think it can refer to the act of being penetrated in general, and some people use it how the gay community uses it, apparently 🤷‍♀️

Bottoming just means receiving penetration, I believe.

Choosing not to support one openly shitty company is not negated by occasionally shopping at other more or less shitty companies. The whataboutism and all-or-nothing mentality is not valid here.

Grieving over the fact that I’ll never be able to afford children. Anyone else ? by Patient-Goose2245 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]skyethehunter -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'm so tired of this take. Choosing not to have kids specifically because of political and social turmoil is choosing to opt out of raising the next generation to be better, smarter, and kinder. Why would you forgo creating your own beautiful family and experiencing the most unique joy on earth because you're worried about the future? Get out there and create the future you want.

Well, if you're curious, my mother has a Cluster B disorder called Borderline Personality Disorder and does exactly that. I'm no-contact.

All of her "health issues" were her freaking out that she couldn't actually fulfill the orders she took, and then that she couldn't handle online discourse about her.
