Heh! I always think of that when talking about my printer or sewing machine. 😂

Front loaders cause less wear on clothing and use less water, which is why I originally chose front loading. It has been a while since I have been in the market, but the favorite feature on my old LG is the ease of getting to just a rinse and spin. Turn the dial to turn on the machine, hit the small rinse+spin button, then start!

I was thinking this is actually thinner than sock yarn. Looks very similar to the lacy doilies that my grandmothers made of something more like 0 or 1. The connecting bits are actually braided or single crochet…so from a distance it looks like thicker yarn than it is. Either way…I love this and kinda want one now.

You are bringing back bad retail days memories lol

As someone who knows someone who was killed as a pedestrian crossing the road…it is not your fault. Don’t forget that fact. Trauma does weird things to our brains even without head injury. Don’t feel guilty about pursuing a lawsuit either. It was the other person’s responsibility to be watchful and follow traffic laws…and they failed. Repercussions are normal in such circumstances even if it is an honest mistake. Hope that you don’t feel any more pain or have more unseen issues. Sometimes these things take time to surface. If you feel unexplainably sleepy at any point, don’t hesitate to see a doctor. Sometimes head trauma isn’t obvious. Wish you the best and hope you recover quickly and thoroughly.

Minecraft. Make your own to do list and play at your own pace. I will beat the ender dragon one day but for now I work on my next automated farm lol.

Rusty Chevrolet by Da Yoopers. That whole album is just hysterical.

This is a tough decision that only you can make. I have been in and out of college since 2003 and still have a few classes til my bachelor. What worked for me once I was in the field I wanted was to cut back to one class at a time and just gradually churn through. Depending on your school/work/debt situation this may or may not be doable. What really matters is to step back and ask yourself why you are pursuing school, if continuing now will pay off in the future, and if pausing and returning is something you would actually do if you left now. Does your workplace offer assistance for education? That can be a great help if you want to slow down.

Just to make the point about the Ohio crash more clear…it was a charter bus full of high school students. Not a typical school bus. Plus other cars were involved too. Such a horrible event.

Haha I never knew a fridge video could be so engaging!

I had the last version and thoroughly enjoyed it. MSRP is $70 so be wary of the high price on Amazon. If you go to other offers you will find the ships from Amazon for the proper price.

To me half of the piece just sounds like him advertising for Medium. That was a huge turn off.

When I first started browsing for new communities that is exactly what I did. I used the browser on my Pc to have one tab with my native instance (midwest.social) and one with the instance I wanted to browse. Once I found something I was interested in I went to my instance, searched with the !community@instance.etc formatting twice (once to discover if need be and the second to actually get to the community). The I could go to the sidebar and subscribe.

It was tedious but helped me get involved more in other instances. browse.feddit.de I believe is a browseable list of communities if you would rather search that way.
