I can't wait for the REM (bottom left picture) to open, it's in less than a week!! After so many years, at last.

It probably disappeared into the ether because it was too short or lacked a backdrop of dried flowers and a cup of tea.

I'll usually go with the length of the video in cases like this. Anything above 5 minutes is a red flag!

Long time user and occasional donor here. I agree with all your points. I love that you can customize each view (daily with humidity and "feels like", weekly with wind speed, etc). And the widgets are just so well thought out and easy to customize to match your wallpaper. Lovely app all around.

En plus ça n'a aucune utilité. Genre, je réutilise mes contenants de take out, de crème glacée (Coaticook font la meilleure crème glacée et ont les meilleurs plats!), les sacs de certains produits congelés, etc. Ça c'est zéro utile.

I love winter, I can't wait for summer to be over. That stillness is what I look forward to each year! And sometimes I like to watch videos like this at night to relax.

Hot ashes for trees, hot air for a cool breeze?

I'm sorry for your loss, I hope you are doing well now.

I've had the same (same or some iteration close to it) for over 20 years, 25 maybe? I used to be Valhalla in the 90s but at some point it became impossible to keep it as the name was popular and used on multiple forums and sites.

Being a big Led Zep fan I had chosen it from Immigrant Song. So when it came time to change it I thought of their label Swan Song and just added my initials to it. I have a couple of other accounts for other purposes that are almost as old but not as meaningful as this one is to me.

I've had two kids, both ending in emergency c-sections after many hours of painful labour.

A few months after my second was born I got kidney stones. And that pain completely erased any conception of pain I had up to that point. Paralyzing, terrifying, unrelenting. It fucking sucks.

Maybe talk to her about crochet. That eats up yarn in a flash. Then you'll have doilies and granny square blankets all over the house!

Knitting can be quite fun and somewhat low cost if you don't get influenced too much. But ask any knitter about their stash and you'll discover we're all hoarders who will not hesitate to pay ridiculous amounts of money for a single skein of hand died yarn (in the ugliest colours) that most likely will end up in the stash and never get knitted. Tools are the same. Why settle for a very basic and fully functional set of needles when you can get the most expensive one?

If you know a knitter, just know they are most likely sitting on a small fortune worth of yarn and tools.

Congrats! Feels liberating. Just deleted my entire history (posts and comms) this morning! 12 years, 35k karma. I'm waiting a bit to delete my account in case the rollback story is a thing so I can delete them again.
