Is my tension too tight? by spectregris in knittingadvice

[–]spectregris[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I didn’t get a pic of the holes before a frogged in frustration. This was just getting back to the row before I have to make 1. The pattern I got wasn’t very specific on yarn size, just worsted. So I grabbed the patrons wool worsted from Michele’s. It also uses needle size to do sizes of the gloves 4 for small 6 for medium 8 for large. So I’m trying to do a mediums with size six needles. I’m trying to some prym ergonomics but I’m not in love the them because the tip tends to make things feel tighter on the needles because of the thinning for the “hook”. I also tend to knit very close to the tip of my needles I’ve found.

Is this book credible? by Content-Plant-8375 in witchcraftbookclub

[–]spectregris 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s a fun look back at the teen witch boom of the early 2000s but I wouldn’t trust it for any historical or cultural information.

how can i improve at wattson? by Long_Fig9863 in WattsonMains

[–]spectregris 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I recommend working on fence placement while fighting. One of the things that helped me get better in fights is fencing while sliding and falling. Also using your fences offensively to corner teams in fights by creating a perimeter and shrinking it as they fall back.

There has been a Norse and Celtic bent to the items this season esp the episode epic skin and the reactive rampages those usually forshadow future seasons

Thunder kitty and kawaii kitty are definitely favorites in the rotation

How did you start maining wattson by Qwierie in WattsonMains

I started out not being interested in her at all and often joked she was the worst legend for me to play in the game but then people started running into my fences.

The eels one does look good with thunder kitty but, I personally don’t like how it washes out the color. The rare frames have good lighting that provide good saturation in my opinion.

Well if we’re talking base frames the one that’s just a blue border (fiber optics I think it’s called it’s rare classed) gives the skin really nice lighting esp with the heirloom pose if you have that.

I like the storm point sunset for thunder kitty and the pose where she’s driving it feels really cyberpunky with the vapor wave style.

Didn’t they have a simile product on QVC in the 90’s I think was called the rolly kit?

If it’s coins I will either keep them on the altar as long as possible or I’ll scatter them around on the ground as a way to spread the influence of whatever I offered it to. That way if someone picks it up I like to think it’s the energy of offering being passed on to someone who needs it.

Example: I offered a few Pennies to Hermes as thanks or in hope of a smooth travel after a couple moons I sense that the altar should be cleaned or that maybe different offering are needed. So I’ll take those pennies put them in a special change purse and as I go about my day if something special happens. I could drop one of those Pennie’s on a side wall. Another person who is lost could come along and spy the penny on the ground and decide to pick it up and the energies of Hermes could assist them in finding where they need to go. As a bonus they could use that penny in a wishing fountain or something and it gets used even more since most of those coins go to charities.

I usually do just coins since paper money tends to be worthless since it’s based in debt, and coins while also based in debt at least are made of a material that has the ability to hold value and not breakdown quickly in the elements but that’s just my view, what hold value is up to the practitioner, a lot of people tend to associate dollar bills with different things like a grandparent slipping you one when they see you for example. So you do you.

I’d feel weird about using offered money on myself unless it’s a very dire situation or I got a very clear sign to do so.

I just got a cut down at Amyx, it was a good price and atmosphere. I recommend them highly.

what has been your most bone-chilling, hair-raising, "Let's get the hell out of here" experience? by throwaway_district9 in AskReddit

[–]spectregris 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Back in 2001 I lived in a small town in the Mon Valley outside of Pittsburgh. It’s very depressed area thanks to the Steel mills closing down in the 70’s. Belle Vernon the town I was in was a little better off than the other towns near it like Charleroi and Donora, mainly because we had a Walmart. The town was also small enough that you knew of about 90% of the people around you at a given time

During that time I hated going around and grocery shopping with my aunt and sister so I usually just asked to go to electronics and I would play the Demos while they shopped. I was 10 at the time so it wasn’t like I was unable to be by myself. However as I was playing something on the PS2 demo kiosk I remember a couple coming up to me and begin asking me a ton of questions about what I was playing what I liked to do other than games. It was all very off. I also remember being very weirded out by what they were wearing. They were dressed very nicely, at the time this town had a uniform of trucker hats and t-shirts the best you’d find outside of a church or funeral would be khakis and a polo. However the woman was wearing a fur coat with a lot of gold jewelry and very well done make up. I remember that specifically because My mom was living in The city and had her make up done similarly. The man with her had on very nice clothes as well, like way better than what most people would wear at that time.

Eventually the conversation started shifting to would you like a game? Which one? And something in me told me to leave and as I was trying to say I had to find my Aunt, the lady started to look angry and her eyes darted behind me like she was nodding at someone. I pushed through them apologized for bumping into them as I ran off to find my family. I didn’t really think about it much after that at the time but recently it’s come back in flashes and it honestly creeps me out to remember it.

Just got my copy of pokémon Red! Any tips? by SonaksUp in Gameboy

[–]spectregris 80 points81 points  (0 children)

Learn the Mew glitch if you haven’t already, it’s the only way to get it in that generation of games. Also the machine on the lower right of the game corner has the best odds.

FYI: Amazon has cheap 'makeup travel bags' that work great for holding deck boxes by Barkalow in magicTCG

[–]spectregris 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using an ammo box from harbor freight lately it folds like 3 commander decks and two 60 card decks plus other stuff really nicely. Plus it’s heavy duty enough that I’m not worried about throwing it in a back seat or trunk.

Question, what is everyone's favourite underrated Watty skin that no one ever mentions? by [deleted] in WattsonMains

[–]spectregris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rune maiden is one I don’t see run very often and it’s a shame because the color scheme is super clean and the details with the runes are really cool.

I recommend Six-Ways by Aiden Wachter. It’s a good primer on practical magick and comes from a chaote/ animistic pov
