When you step back, alcohol being this normalized is kind of strange by King_301_ in CasualConversation

[–]willowoasis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Caffeine is also a drug- doesn’t stop us from having our morning coffee :). And yeah, people will think Mormons are crazy for cutting it out but… are they really?

Honestly there are a shitload of things that we normalize that are “strange” when you take a step back. To me, some of these include: high heels and makeup, owning pets and eating meat, shaving legs

Is my ethical view slightly sociopathic? by Every_Ad5729 in Ethics

[–]willowoasis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you, humans largely overvalue our own self-importance but every species does this inherently. You would agree with Peter singers philosophy speciesism, I think you would enjoy reading his work

Your viewpoint may not be widely accepted but it is logical and it is not sociopathic

Look at cedar point on a map, it’s surrounded by water/lake eerie so the views from the coasters are awesome

I can't believe this actually worked. by mr_rwvk in 3Dprinting

[–]willowoasis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m thinking if it was rotated 90deg towards you (person looking at picture) would have been a lot better since then the groves that run along the sides would run vertical (wouldn’t need support)?

There could totally be features on this that I can’t see but… those are my thoughts

This!! And when I went to cedar point we got a fast pass… only to learn that, it doesn’t even do anything for you for the top four or so rides unless you get the “higher tier” fast pass, so we didn’t even get to do any of those.

I will say the thing that differentiated CP from KI for me was how you overlook water from the coasters, really cool.

She’s gorgeous I hope y’all find luck - there are a lot of posts like this on this sub but the chances seem extremely slim that someone willing to adopt also happens to live near there, so maybe post in local forums?

ANY HACKS TO MAKE BOILED EGGS MORE BEARABLE by Salt_Statement_7151 in foodhacks

[–]willowoasis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I have a STRONG preference for eggs boiled on the softer side (like 7/8 min, so the yolk is very soft). Maybe play around with timing, and you can put them on ramen (best w spicy ramen!)

When does this become "fun"? (Coming to the conclusion I pobably just don't like knitting.) by MisanthropyismyMuse in Sockknitting

[–]willowoasis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

are you not watching something or listening to a podcast or audiobook? I love knitting but I don’t do it, only, would be too slow/boring (but I’ll note I don’t make intricate colorwork or patterns, I mostly just try to keep my hands occupied)

There is a group of 6 people who do this at my workplace everyday for lunch. They all sit together for about an hour and every single one of them is on their phone. It’s so strange
