  • If you just read the red highlighted letters it says "POO-AR!!"

  • Would it be weird if I took something my neighbor put out for trash?
  • Next time just go take it. No one will care. They might even help you lol

  • The storms gods is smilings on me!
  • I swear there's half a foot of pine straw covering my yard now lol I'll probably just try to chop it up with the mower tomorrow

  • The storms gods is smilings on me!
  • Yes, after yesterday's hurricane I have a lifetime supply of sticks in my yard now lol

  • Court rules grocery store’s inaccessible website isn’t an ADA violation
  • Oh wow I thought Winn Dixie went out of business years ago lol

  • 28 September 2024
  • I don't get what's happening here

  • How do I make my own internet?
  • Could you give more details about what you mean by "homemade internet"? The first thing I thought of was just a LAN or Intranet which I see many people have already suggested but I feel like that may not be what you're actually talking about

  • This image.
  • There are Waffle House locations that aren't 24 hour??? Why? Like 3/4s of their business is long haul truckers isn't it?

  • This image.
  • For anyone who has never heard of this, The Waffle House Index is a real thing used to gauge the severity of weather events!

  • When you wanna be punk but also go on an adventure
  • This seems like the most un-punk thing I've ever seen somehow lol

  • 2024.09 What did Agatha do to her son, Nicholas Scratch, in the MCU?
  • I just assumed Teen is going to turn out to be her son

  • Anon gets a lesson in genetics
  • So even when an incel hits their personal jackpot and gets to bang a Japanese woman they're still just miserable pricks lol

    Guess you can't blame women or your virginity now Anon lol

  • Wtf does this exist?
  • Why does it exist? I'm guessing because someone somewhere has prairie dogs in their yard and wants to get rid of them?

  • in 25+ years of retro gaming and sierra, i've never once seen someone mention Hoyle's Book of Games
  • We didn't get a computer at my house until around the mid 90s, so when this game came out I would have been playing Vegas Dream on the NES instead! Looking back at it now it's entirely probable that the NES game was a poor imitation of the Sierra game lol but I still loved it even though I was probably too young to understand all the rules

  • WIP Wednesday! Trying out a homemade pattern for the first time!
  • It's definitely a learning experience lol I'm finding this pattern has a lot more random single color stitches than ones I get from Etsy but otherwise it's been really fun to work on something I got to design myself!

  • "news" article pretends not to understand why two very different shows in two separate genres on two totally separate networks aren't judged exactly the same way.
  • I watched all of them and it did get somewhat better here and there. The high points were just good enough that I still wanted to see what happened but there was just so much pointless junk that even the big cliffhanger ending didn't really thrill me... I'd honestly be fine if they just told me how the story ends in an email or something lol

    They're also comparing the ratings of a single episode of Penguin to the entire first season of The Acolyte

    WIP Wednesday! Trying out a homemade pattern for the first time!

    I can't call this one fully original because I did use the Bing Image Creator AI website to generate the initial artwork.

    After generating the image I converted it into a pattern on Floss Cross

    If you hadn't already guessed, this is a Prince pattern! I'm making it as a custom piece for a friend, but it's also a good chance to test out a homemade pattern before I try a bigger completely original pattern after this!

    If you don't want EVERYONE to participate in your community, then you should really make it private.

    I just got permanently banned from a community for making a single harmless remark on a single post that was right there in the main feed. It's not a community I'm super active in so it's not like devastating, but it is annoying

    If your precious little community is full of so many delicate sensitive people who can't even be reminded that another viewpoint even exists, then you should really protect them by defederating and having everyone join your private website

    The mod has literally removed like 75% of the comments and banned everyone lol

    I don't know about anyone else, but I don't have time to read every rule for every community that pops up when I'm in view all

    Just so you know I'm not DRAGON my feet, here's another WIP Wednesday post!

    What's everyone else working on today?

    I was told today to take this and throw it in the trash! Now it will become a retro gaming TV!

    The VCR in the bottom still works great too! I'm a total noob to this as I've only ever set up emulators on a regular computer. How difficult is it to set up something like a RetroPi? Or is there a better option?

    Update: despite how messy this looks right now, it is actually going well lol

    This one is designed in such a way that the wiring was all done at the beginning, so that top part is constantly having to be balanced on something or otherwise carefully tucked away until it's finally set in place on literally the last page of instructions!

    It's still a really fun model, I just wish they had set it up for the wiring to be done closer to the end like the other ones I've built

    Does anyone else on here ever do commissions? How do you set your prices?

    I just finished one commission that I realized I severely undercharged for once I started it, now I have a few other people asking me to make more pieces!

    I looked up some info online about setting prices, but I'm honestly never sure how many hours a cross stitch is going to take me to finish, and the other method they recommended was charging by the number of stitches, but that seems like it ends up making things more expensive than people would be willing to pay...

    Does anyone else have an easy pricing structure they use?

    Is @[email protected] still on here? I feel like she might have some experience with this lol
