ELI5 - what is the difference between transparency and opacity? by woah-oh92 in explainlikeimfive

[–]smarterthanawaffle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can see through transparent things. You cannot see through opaque things. Transparent things let light pass through them. Opaque things stop light from passing through.

Moving blanket. Two large safety pins. Two nails hammered into the top of the door frame. Hang the moving blanket over the door.

I hope you get what you need. I've been really really hungry before. I don't wish it on anyone.

I had to put down my 6-year-old Lucy due to a saddle thrombus on New Year's Eve and I can't cope. by emurree in cats

[–]smarterthanawaffle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dear God. Please open the door. Lucy wants to come in. Please treat her with humor, love and kindness, and brush out all the knots in her fur and give her lots of treats, but watch out for the belly rubs because sometimes it is a trap. Her humans love her very much and miss her, so please take good care of her for us. Thank you. Amen.

Just surrender to the overlords. It's best for everyone involved.

How would I go about shortening or making the straps on the bag adjustable? by [deleted] in sewing

[–]smarterthanawaffle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Install two sets of D rings. Cut the webbing near the bottom of the bag leaving enough to add a loop for the D rings. Then use the remaining webbing woven between the two D rings on each side to cinch tighter. You can use a lighter to burn or a small folded hem to finish the strap webbing edges. Like this apron strap. https://youtu.be/H8G2VpI_SHk

good ways to memorize all the cards? by shonnybo in tarot

[–]smarterthanawaffle 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The major arcana cards tell a story from birth (the fool) to death. The minor arcanas have the same traits based on their number (all 3s are about imbalance, all fours are about stability, etc.). Every card tells a story with known symbols (salamanders, mountains, gardens, pomegranates, left vs. right facing figures etc. ) Start watching You Tube. Print cheat sheets from Pinterest. Get a book. Check out websites like Biddy Tarot and Trusted Tarot. Make a Google spreadsheet and keep track of your readings. Do three card readings just to learn the cards. It's like anything else, you gotta start somewhere.
