What Canadian leftist doesn’t think Carney is on the leading edge of the Overton window?

I prefer my human rights.

Amazing info. Thank you!

I studied medieval recipes for specials when I was a chef. What a mindfuck to learn you need a grænde quontitye o almunde mylk afore ye smote þy pig.

And for tarantula terrariums!

That’s true, you discover a lot of rules that have already been written, but remember them better because you understand why they’re there.

I post a lost of my stuff through my other account, wren@lemmy.today. Oh, and on my !Art_Alchemist_Guild@lemmy.today

I’ll cross post my next binding attempt here. I’m working on a little burnt-edge notebook for a friend, I just didn’t like the hard spine I made, so I’m waiting on a leather order to come in.

Thanks for saying so. I really enjoy working different textures into it.

Thanks! Yes, I’m very medieval-fairy-chic. The brush-roll-up is a classic way to keep your tips in ship-shape and your handles from snapping during transport. Lots of folks use canvas or leather, I just happen to do a lot of felting — It’s a fairly forgiving, low-barrier art form if you want to try it out.

I -just- bought some bookbinding supplies to start learning. My first two tries look no where as nice as this, then I remembered online tutorials are a thing.

Thanks, yo.

No projects since with forging, unforgunately. My cousin has the metal shop and he lives in a deep, dark forest.

He’s distinguished.

It’s all scrap felt I made for other projects, 2D it looks like marbled red and white - the wool colours I used. I chose that piece for the belly to represent love.

And I know dick all about sewing, too. The pattern came in plastic pieces I traced, cut, and followed the directions to put together. I did it by hand for extra love (because I don’t own a sewing machine.)

Like the good looking brother robot who’s humble and talented, too.

I tell him all the time.

Thank you. I’ll keep it in mind.

Thank you.

Amazing, thank you. I should have included some screenshots! I mainly use it for patterns, and I’m novice at best, so I didn’t even know about searching for local fibres. Definitely searching that now.

Bitch away! I’m from the milder weather on the east - Tons of snow for a month and a perfect 17⁰C every other day.

Damn. But isn’t skating super fun? I bought cross country skis and binoculars last year to help me enjoy the cold and dark.

I should look into that. The problem is the pipes run through a wall, I call it “The Wall,” because it’s ice all the fucking time. I can’t figure out exactly where it’s freezing, and it runs behind built in cabinets. The super special heater was put in because of burst pipes, so I guess it stopped that.

At least, this year, I haven’t woken up to indoor winter with the basement heater screaming bloody murder through the house, and had to shuffle outside at Stupid AM to knock the ice off the intake… yet.

I’m surprised anything falls at those temps, must be all the moisture getting freeze-dried out of the air.

The hot water in my kitchen keeps freezing off, even with the special heater installed under the sink to keep the pipes warm.

Fuck yeah I’m in the underboob.
