omg i hadn't caught that 😂

Oh how odd. To me some molds smell like root beer. Why root beer indeed!

Faces are super hard! It may not count cuz I sculpted it in nomad, but it took... hmm. 7 tries? to get this face.

My experience learning about Columbus was very like ok school taught that he was super great but they did it in the most boring way. Then Addams Family Values shone a light on how effed up colonization was, so when years later I learned he was a horrifying person I was like "huh. yeah that tracks."

why... why does Anyone know the man's favorite drink? was it something he talked about a lot? why would anyone assume a random starbucks worker would see such an ordinary drink order and assume it has anything to do with him?? I'm so confused. is this news? why is this news.

I've always been interested in them because of their relationship to reading people (in the social sense). Cold reading is such an interesting skill, on one hand I wanna be better at it but on the other it seems mostly used for conning people. I'm just a nosy bitch, I don't wanna fleece anyone.

Reading this title alone literally made me flinch. (the rest of the letter does not help!)

every thing you say makes this sound more and more unhinged. when i was in college our biggest design secret was to tell the college you want the bunk bed and put a desk under it. When we finally got out of the dorms it was "i hope you like futons cuz it's that or a mattress on the floor"

I much prefer the tiny doll blind boxes, but even then I'll only buy them if I like all the options. (Without fail if I don't like All the options I'll get my least favorite. sometimes this is how I find out I had a least favorite.)

Adorable kitties as always! Have you tried goo-gone? It's my go-to for tape gunk. Sometimes you gotta leave it on a while to soften it up but it usually works for me.

If it's drip coffee out of a machine that's 20 years old it's probably haunted by coffees past.

Sending you the best of vibes to get through this, that sounds very scary.

I'm so sorry. Mine are also having a pretty rough time, though more to do with loss and grief. It's so hard to see them hurting.

my crew. they help me often.

my favorite was when my cat stealth farted so nasty he woke himself up, looked straight at me and complained like he was blaming me. 😆 i didn't realize what happened and leaned over to comfort him and was like 😮‍💨 sir.... ew.

Oh cool, hello!

Been hitting his work hard lately. gnu Terry Pratchett. thank you so much.

i make sweaters and cardigans (the next one is pigeon themed)

I've had to move with my cats quite a few times now and it always sucks. They do calm down quickly when you are in the new place with old familar items though. Hide for a day or two, then explore a bit, then they own it.

lol, more like.. turning my hobby into a job makes it stop being fun. tried that with sewing, won't do it again if i can avoid it! But thank you, it IS still fun lol.

This is machine knitting for me. I'm a solid 2k in, not even counting the yarn, and every time someone asks if I'm going to sell my knitting I hiss at them like a cornered rat.

Yup, they sure did. It's an old family story how 8yo me stared down a very pregnant woman in the grocery store line, then said loudly "you told me how the baby got in there, but how does it get out??" nearly causing the young man behind us to have an aneurism from laughing too hard.

Oh my god I want it so bad lol

I do but I don't have any cool glitch stories. I feel ripped off. (its fine its very small and not growing atm)

I, an ignorant, was dogsitting and felt uncomfortable with the prong collar... so the great dane/german shepard mix immediately hauled me straight into a gravel ditch and bolted. Lesson learned, sometimes you need to use the prong collar. (he was the same way, just didn't pull at all with it)

It looks just like her! It barely even changed anything! I hate it so much!

person posting on Facebook about an "AI knitting challenge" with a picture of a woman wearing a shirt with vertical stripes

me calling AI plagerism with proof. a screenshot of a familiar looking woman in a vertical striped shirt. the only big difference is the colors are now aggressively 80's. the photo is from an 80's knitting magazine.

me linking to where you can download the 80's magazine and posting a picture of the instructions.

Don't mind me just going feral over AI slop tonight.

"the only human contributor" kills me fucking dead. you know, except all the artists they stole from to build the stupid copyright infringement machine.

Perfect yes.

He's making lucky cat face 😄
