I’ll go first. Mine is that I can’t stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It’s like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds
I worked at a software company in 2010 and was still actively coding web applications that work in ie6. They wanted web 2.0 flashy things… And also must work in ie6. It was not fun
I don’t know why I was born transgender, but I have no secret agenda. I want my child to live in a world where they are safe and free to be exactly who they are....
Could someone explain why it matters? Is microwaving water for tea akin to instant coffee or Keurig to snobby coffee drinkers? (I nuke water for tea, but when it comes to coffee I use distilled water, fresh beans, a scale and it’s kinda ritualistic)
Audiobooks all the way. I’m a crafter so I like to paint, knit, crochet, cross stitch or quilt while listening. Not possible with tangible books. I’ve listened to the whole Wheel of Time series and all of Brandon Sanderson’s cosmere novels. https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/ca94918e-da64-46be-9d53-313d624265bb.png

Getting laid off from my tech job was both the scariest and most freeing moment in my life. It’s been over a year now and I’ve transitioned into doing just a few hours of contract work.
I have a lot of runners up, like Amrito for Amy, or Bradinglesmirch for Briar, but I think the dumbest has to be Scott Von Scott of the Scottsdale Scotts Who Did Scott So Scottily in the Battle of Scotteen Twelve....
Fuck yeah. I got fixed a few years after the ACA (Obamacare) was enacted. Prior to the ACA almost no providers covered voluntary sterilization, or there were difficult hoops to jump. Now I make a point to scream to all my ladies in the states, your health insurance is absolutely REQUIRED to provide coverage for female sterilization.
A 22 year old is an adult. I should have the ability to make 100% of decisions regarding my body. If a mistake was made it was mine to make. I could get a middle finger tattooed on my face without a note. I can have a whole litter of babies and no one makes me write a letter. So imo you can kindly fuck off.
Yeah I hear you, I live in the PNW and it still took me three obgyns before a doctor would finally approve. At the time I was a child free never pregnant 22 year old,. The doctor still required that I write a letter stating I understand it’s irreversible. Still pretty condescending imo. You aren’t wrong, it’s hard and depending where you are in the us impossible to access humane women’s healthcare.
But you are wrong to assume women seeking sterilizations all get hysterectomies. There are at least a handful of options, I got Essure but I think that it’s no longer on the market. I walked out of my appointment, still more of an ordeal for ladies but not necessarily as dramatic as a hysterectomy.
I still use frozen juice tubes! The stores near me used to have a great selection but now it’s apple or orange. Honestly tastes similar to most of the name brand stuff.
It’s weird but since quitting Reddit I feel like I lost all the connections in my life. I’m glad to be here with y’all, and I look forward to sharing more! I’ve been in a rut and seeing your beauties has inspired me to dust off the ole sewing machine and finish up my newest kitty’s portrait.
That pattern I actually purchased, I’m not sure who the designer was. I am working on another cat pillow, since I’ve gotten another cat, and this pattern I did make.
I used Quilt Assistant quiltassistant.com on Windows to take a photo and turn it into a usable pattern. The software takes a lot of patience as it’s an awkward interface IMO. I’ve tried making a pattern in Photoshop and that was a nightmare.
Once I have a completed pattern I visually QA by printing all the pieces cutting out and laying them out on a big cutting mat. Here’s the one I’m working on now. I make sure that there aren’t awkward joins or overly boxy corners. It’s easy to accidentally delete or move a line while editing, you may not notice that it’s not pieceable until it’s under the needle. Basically if you notice any concave shapes that pattern probably isn’t going to work out for you.
