It’s not the same, but I’ve been having fun with spoonflower.com. Thousands of independent designers with hundreds of prints each, available to be printed on any of their 20ish fabric types . You can order a box of fabric samples to see what each type feels like and how the ink looks on each one.
But chatting with the crafty ladies in line, getting all nosey with my shopping basket is irreplaceable 😭
The bell doesn’t dismiss you, I dismiss you!
I have to do billing on a government (California) website monthly and it will not run on anything but Chrome. It says so at sign in, and it really is true. It’s the shittiest website I’ve ever used.
I feel dirty having it on my computer, and I get mad every time I open the browser.
If it’s a nickel allergy you can paint the metal part that touches your skin with nail polish to protect yourself.
Same, and my salads are roughly 1/2 cheese by volume. No sadness there.
I know this book gets recommended at every opportunity around here, so continuing the tradition: Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky is a wonderful sci-fi novel that (among many other things) explores the gender roles of spider society.

If you’re ever feeling too confident in your appearance, go through the Target self check and watch yourself on the screen. I’m a pretty normal looking person, but goddamn… not at the Target self check. Maybe people steal less when they feel bad about themselves…?

Oh dear.
It’s not nearly as bad as the YouTube commercial I keep seeing with someone trying to wipe chocolate pudding off a peach. It’s very… visceral. I have no idea what it’s for.

Earth First! was widely known for its tactics. It generally eschewed the lobbying and political deal-making associated with mainstream environmental organizations. Instead, its activists typically engaged in nonviolent direct action, such as civil disobedience to block environmentally harmful activities and “monkeywrenching” (the sabotage of machinery involved in environmental destruction). In the first years after the group’s formation, the use of direct actions—standing in front of bulldozers and putting spikes (e.g., metal rods or nails) in trees to prevent them from being cut—brought national news coverage to Earth First!. The group subsequently grew.
I dunno, I’ve had garlic Parmesan ice cream and it was pretty good. The first bite is very strange until your brain recalibrates to not expect sweet. Not sure about the texture of frozen cabbage… very pretty though!
Yeah, but they were $8.99 before the shenanigans started.
