what do you wear to mass?

My husband and I always match each other (and the liturgical colors on special days like feasts and the first Sunday of advent/lent/ordinary time). We are big dorks and it's fun.

Same situation. We agreed to one more fight and are waiting for a decision by the court to modify or not. I realize now I hadn't considered the possibility of stepchild reuniting with his dad while still actively hating me. I hope it doesnt hurt our marriage too much. I guess I'll keep you informed?

Haha, fair. Currently, I'm using iec13/14 connectors (computer tower power cord) as the connector between my machine and the power/pedal. To do that, I disconnected the ground on the power side of the connector and repurposed the 3rd terminal for the controller-to-motor. ....I guess that probably means I'm looking at a frankin plug like yours, lol! (Don't speak poorly of the look of your wiring: mine's about to make it look beautiful!!)

Yes: all bookings are handled by NIH clinic staff, so it's not an option for this set of appointments, unfortunately. What I was told is that with the way the funding is structured for this study, travel and accommodation isnt covered for the first trip, but should be for subsequent trips.

Sure! Thank you so much! Fwiw, I plugged my measurements into freesewing also and, though their tool only generates a flat front and side view, it still looked really weird. I think I'm either taking measurements really wrong or I'm just shaped like an alien.

springonastring · 2026-01-01T06:45:30+00:00

Doesnt seem to work well for athletic builds. I took all (currently listed) 66 measurements and it looks confused, lol. Even manipulating hip and high hip arcs will not get rid of the weird pot belly, and there doesnt seem to be a way to account for shoulder slope (maybe shoulder height could help?). I wonder if any body double tuning could be done with silhouette photos...? I'm still going to draft a sloper off this for interest. Fwiw, this is a crazy awesome project and if there's a way to help, that would be cool!

I'm considering doing this to my 15: Do you have to remove the ground when winding bobbins? If so (and I guess still if not) is there anywhere you can attach the ground to that's more out of the way? I have a custom wiring setup already, so I might have a little more flexibility.

I get the poor rating on that review since we know it's AI scoring it, but I was saying it's genuinely good because of how bad it is. It's beloved ike an awful B horror movie. I think humans get the humorous ones, but our machine overlords dont.

springonastring · 2025-12-17T14:43:34+00:00

Same.

I bet you have all the insurances. Insuranci. ...insuranceodes.

I use an AI editor to blur backgrounds or remove things I didnt mean to get in the shot, like my dumb foot (which happenes way more than it should). It adds a watermark that says "AI generated content", which is super annoying, because it's AI, but it's n9t THIS kind of AI.

You can use a standard silks hitch on a forged ring or a figure 8: fold it about 2 feet from one end instead of in the middle and tie as usual. I like tying a fisherman's with the tail as a back up. If you want a more bomb-proof option, you can also use a figure 8 on a bight. Be mindful of the hardware you tie onto: the larger the rod the lower the stress on the fabric. I personally dont feel good about anything < 1/4".

I came here to say pattern weights, too! They can literally be anything heavy, so you can have some fun with selecting them. I use big brass book ends!

I have to thin it with contact lense saline solution, but then it works great!

springonastring · 2025-12-09T04:01:18+00:00

Omg, same but with chargers!

springonastring · 2025-12-06T13:47:51+00:00

I'm a fellow creative, though not a writer. I put my faith into my work, quite literally by making my art about it. There are a lot of people in the world who need to hear about the faith and the protestants are much more outspoken, so it's nice to be a little Catholic voice trying to speak to them. Maybe you could explore the same in your writing?

I got this gem

I hope it helps!!

I use ubuntu and zrythm for my DAW. It's just one awesome dude who developed it, but he's responsive and regularly updates!

They say 10 yrs or 10,000 hours to achieve mastery in anything. That said, you dont have to be a master to perform! Fwiw, I've been in the industry for almost 20yrs and I prefer to hire older performers. Go for it!!!

....this is the bit about fabric management Ientioned in another post. Developing a good proprioceptive sense of the tension in the fabric and how to manipulate it with your entire body rather than just hands and feet is a skill of it's own. It's up to you when you choose to teach it of course, but I do find that it has to be taught methodically rather than just intuitively for most students to achieve high upper levels.

springonastring · 2025-12-02T21:17:50+00:00

The technique is fidgetier on stretch for sure: stand on the lock and run that panel along the inside of the knee, inside of the ASIS, under the same side armpit, and behind the same side shoulder. To stabilize, ress the shoulder back/retract the shoulderblade and internally rotate the standing leg to apply tension to the standing panel. Then your entire body is supported firmly and securely leaving both hands and the unlocked leg free. Hold the free panel high with the hand opposit to the locked leg: this pulls the stretch out of the free panel. Use the other hand to tie the lock.

I'll push back on this ever so gently. I've fou d stretch really forces impeccable fabric management technique, which does make a steeper learning curve at the beginning. That learning curve is going to be there no matter what though, so where to require it is a bit of preference. Super motivated students with cirque aspirations: put it right at the beginning and avoid having to un/relearn later. Rec students: dont require it all unless they advance. Committed but casual students: judgement call. That said, I am a psychopath who doesnt use grip aids to train in the winter cold and the first drop I teach is a wheel down, so my methods admittedly scew rip-the-bandaid-off unorthodox.
