My Clinical Microbiology teacher: I’m no longer allowed to teach you how to waft plates, but… if you happen to catch a whiff of ____ growing on a plate, you would smell ____. ::wink, wink::
15 minute drive to the store, better grab my knitting
This overlooks that 100% cotton jeans will break down when they are discarded (unlike polyester and nylon). A good pair of jeans can be mended and worn for many years instead of a new pair every year. Jeans can lead a very useful “after life” as insulation or be recycled into new fabric.
It also ignores the chemicals and energy required to turn beechwood and bamboo into wearable fabric.
I don’t know what the solution is but natural fabrics aren’t the enemy.
That is such a cool concept!
No, I was trying to use up some left overs. I tried again with fewer stitches and it gave me the fit I was after.
TX had similar bullshit (nothing until 11) when I was there working overnights. It’s my 8pm. I’ve been up keeping patients alive all night. Make my drink.
They look great! I love the stitch pattern
Ezekiel’s description is pretty wild: Ezekiel 10:12-21 Their entire bodies, including their backs, their hands and their wings, were completely full of eyes, as were their four wheels. I heard the wheels being called “the whirling wheels.” Each of the cherubim had four faces: One face was that of a cherub, the second the face of a man, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle. Then the cherubim rose upward. These were the living creatures I had seen by the Kebar River. When the cherubim moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the cherubim spread their wings to rise from the ground, the wheels did not leave their side. When the cherubim stood still, they also stood still; and when the cherubim rose, they rose with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in them. Then the glory of the LORD departed from over the threshold of the temple and stopped above the cherubim.While I watched, the cherubim spread their wings and rose from the ground, and as they went, the wheels went with them. They stopped at the entrance to the east gate of the LORD’s house, and the glory of the God of Israel was above them. These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the Kebar River, and I realized that they were cherubim. Each had four faces and four wings, and under their wings was what looked like the hands of a man.
For a while people were doing AI prompts for biblically accurate angels (sometimes mashed with other characters). I can only do so much with sugar cookie dough.
I still remember the My Buddy and Kid Sister ad jingles 🫣
The 80s were a wild time for kids movies. I loved The Labyrinth but the scene where the puppets took their heads off and played soccer was unsettling. I still don’t like that part.
My husband wanted to throw on The Secret of Nimh for our 5yo twins. He was sitting there confused why I would object, “it’s rated G.” It’s 1980s G; that’s a Don Bleuth animation! “It will be fine! Come on kids, this is a movie Mommy and Daddy watched when we were kids.” I got up to get a blanket in preparation for the inevitable hiding behind a blanket moments.
I also saw the original Chucky movie when I was a kid at a slumber party. I spent a lot of time helping my friend’s mom make popcorn.
Fast forward to my early 20s. A friend’s 5yo found a Chucky doll at the thrift store. Oh, the poor baby’s hurt! I want to take care of the baby and make it better! So her mom buys it for her and she took it EVERYWHERE. I gave that situation sooooo much side eye, I was not ok. The 5yo had zero idea of the context and loved that “hurt baby”. My friend made it clear to us that we couldn’t explain it to her.
I feel this! I’m a Medical Laboratory Scientist and all the unholy abomination stock photos of blood tubes with COVID antigen test results written on the tube… There was a subreddit just for shitty science stock photos.

I don’t get it either. I was working in a hospital lab in TX for H1N1 (swine flu) in 2009. The hospital lined up all staff members to get the brand new H1N1 vaccine and you either got it or signed a declination. Declining meant you got a sticker on your badge requiring you to wear a mask for the entire flu season while at work. No fits, no protests, and everyone cooperated. My mind is blown by how toxic the rhetoric became.
Yes! I went to an evangelical church run private school. They had the brilliant idea to send good “strong Christian” students to raves and parties to narc on their classmates that attended said raves and parties. I wish I was making that up.
One of the girls in my college dorm taught me how to knit my freshman year. My mom taught me how to sew, cross-stitch, ribbon embroidery etc. when I was a kid.
Today I found a hidden note on a pin from one of my LYS. It definitely applies. Completion is better than perfection
They look great!
In the US, it is an Individual Donor Assessment and applies to everyone. Everyone gets the same question tree, regardless of sexual orientation. If you have had a new partner in the last 3 months or have multiple partners that doesn’t defer you, it sends you to the next tier of question: have you engaged in anal sex. Yes to anal with a new partner or multiple partners is the deferral. If you haven’t had a new partner or multiple partners in the last 3 months, you will not be asked about anal sex. Canada went live with their individual donor assessment a year before the US and has noted a slight drop in donations in straight donors because they are now being deferred for high risk activity when they were previously missed.
Prep is listed under a medication deferral. First responders that take prep for protection from workplace exposure are deferred as well.
