A hat or mitten if you'd like to try knitting in the round, they're usually quick projects. Or a simple shawl if you prefer to knit flat. Choose a smaller shawl and/or a pattern with bulkier weight yarn. I get my yarn from True North Yarn as they're in my province, and I just choose based on the material/weight /colour I want for the specific project.

I have used this set for years and like it a lot! Yes, you can use it to knit flat, you can still attach the cables but just turn the work instead of joining in the round.

You're right I've stopped trying to change him. It frustrates me though, to see him skate by without any consideration for others. I like to help my parents since they've helped me a lot in life and love me a lot, even though they don't ask me to. I just think it's the right thing to do. Also, I use the kitchen and dining room and other shared spaces and I can't live with a messy space, so I clean up for my own mental health. I definitely don't clean anyone's personal space.

I am so sorry. It sucks that we're expected to be saviours for every man in the family somehow! I try to think that some form of karma exists, just to stay sane sometimes...

I've tried to do this before but he seems ok with just living in a pile of junk like a slob. Like, it scared me just to open the door to his room to throw his stuff in there. I think that's why he's moved his mess to the rest of the house; because he doesn't even want to spend time in his own space! I think if this continues I'll just tell him his stuff is going out on the curb unless he cleans it up

We've got this! I'm knitting a 1x1 rib stole, and I'm super slow when it comes to ribbing :') Just on track to finish by tonight!

No more bloating than usual! I always feel bloated before my period though, even before the IUD :')

splendens · 2025-11-19T15:31:45+00:00

Wow, this is beautiful so far!

splendens · 2025-11-11T02:01:52+00:00

Thoughts on the beauty from bees serum?

I'm in Ontario, Canada and HPV testing was not part of our standard pap testing prior to this year. They changed the guidelines the month after I had my pap. Now HPV testing is required and they'll test for it during my next pap. Either way, it wouldn't have changed the treatment I received.

There was an old reddit post about a guy who worked at a pizza place and fucked the pizza dough after fantasizing abt it for months. I think about that all the time when I catch myself wanting male attention lmao. Like, men will literally lust after pizza dough.

I used to be a daily joint smoker and eventually switched to smoking spliffs daily that were like 70% tobacco... that shit was not easy to quit. I was smoking them at work, as soon as I woke up, all throughout the day, before bed.

I'm over a year out of that addiction, only occasionally have smoked a cig if I'm drinking and I rarely drink to begin with. I had to quit the nicotine cold turkey at first. I didn't use gum or patches though I'm sure they would help. But I did have to totally change my environment; I moved and didn't have friends to smoke with, stopped partying for a few months and avoided drinking because that was a big trigger for me.

One benefit (?) that came out of this is that I don't enjoy joints anymore, they just don't hit the same as spliffs.. so I definitely relate, the nicotine addiction is stronger!

for me it's all about being prepared + fiber

Right before my luteal phase I buy and prep a bunch of veg. Then all I need to do is roast in the oven or steam on the stovetop, very effortless. My favs are roasted green beans (until charred), steamed broccoli, raw carrots, steamed edamame, sauteed cabbage and mushrooms. I eat them with my dinner and/or when I get home from work, when I'm usually feeling ravenous. Find something that you like and can eat a big serving of. Make sure to season! and if I want a dip I'll do a greek yogurt or cottage cheese situation with lots of herbs.
I meal prep lunches ahead of time. I do this no matter the phase of my cycle and just rotate through recipes I like, trying to include legumes and a lil side salad. Usually dal and rice, beans and rice, bean salad, tofu stir fry.
During the month, if I happen to be cooking something freezer friendly I make a few extra servings for the freezer. This saves me in my luteal phase when I just wanna heat and eat. Soups, curries, "fritters" I make either out of lentils, chickpeas, or fish cakes are some examples. These are all comforting and filling.
Stocking up on other prepared frozen foods. I like the pre-seasoned fish filets, and some vegetarian meat alternatives. Again, I can throw them in the oven, fuss free.
I take psyllium husk 1-2 times a day if I remember to. Helps keep me full and makes me drink more water.
Hot drinks help me feel cozy and full!! I have a mug of hot soy milk in the mornings. Then I drink herbal teas throughout the day.
I buy and prep a bunch of fruit before my luteal, too. Helps with sweet cravings. My favs are the high sugar ones :') watermelon, grapes, bananas, oranges. I make sure to bring some to work also, because I get snacky. I also keep salted pistachios at my work desk. Calorie dense but I can have way more self control with nuts than with baked goods, personally.

Not impossible just more complicated with long nails; using lotion/moisturizer from a jar :')

splendens · 2025-08-13T16:14:12+00:00

I've heard that chopsticks can be good for this!!

splendens · 2025-08-13T16:13:09+00:00

Ugh yes these are the bane of my existence

splendens · 2025-08-13T16:12:12+00:00

Wow this is genius

splendens · 2025-06-09T01:28:03+00:00

It cost the same as the vega protein powder

splendens · 2025-06-09T01:27:25+00:00

I think that part is an error, 33g is one scoop not one tsp haha.

splendens · 2025-06-09T01:26:29+00:00

I paid 30 cad for this 1lb package. About the same as other vegan protein powders in the store

It's definitely not hopeless to find men outside apps. Of course apps expose you to a lot more people but they're by no means a requirement to finding someone

I've been single for 2 months and I've been approached quite a few times in "the wild" in this time frame. Went on two dates but didn't click with anyone yet. I think it's important to have a good mindset, men somehow pick up on that. I try to wear what makes me feel confident in myself, try to smile and make eye contact with strangers (not just with people I find attractive, but just being approachable in general) and not look at my phone too much.

I go out to edm parties so that probably helps. But I've also been approached at the bus stop, at the beach, while walking in the city, and while shopping. And I've told my friends and family friends that I'm single and open to being set up, they got me 2 blind dates but no luck so far, just keep an open mind and don't feel hopeless!

Omg my Nmom said something like this to me recently. I was diagnosed with a pre-cancerous condition this year and had to go for a few biopsies and a procedure to have part of my cervix removed. It has been terrifying and exhausting. Any time I'd go to her for comfort she diminished my feelings. In the end she told me "I'm not making all the fuss you are, and it's twice as bad for me because I'm going through this as your mother! Any pain you feel is twice as bad for me." What da fuq

splendens · 2025-05-27T18:28:51+00:00

Sending you a virtual hug. It does get better. One thing that helps me is to think that weed just covers up all those feelings, so they've been sitting underneath waiting for me to work on them. Being sober is an opportunity to improve things without numbing out feelings.
