@MontayBayBay@dieworkwear Right, but there’s more. Where is the fabric sourced from? The cotton or fibers? Where is it woven? Where is it dyed? There is much more than just the cutting and sewing.
@MadSocSci @StevenJosephR@Culture_Crit Go see one displayed properly. Take time to view it from a distance and then very close. What looks so simple at first is so complex in reality. I’m a Van Gogh girl, but there’s something fascinating about a Rothko
@pogobigboy@StevenJosephR@Culture_Crit Right? They’re not just a plain block of paint. If you see them up close you see so many colors. What seems so simple from a distance is more complex and fascinating the closer you get.
@dieworkwear I would wear the hell out of that dress. I wore those dresses all the time until my job changed a few years ago. And I love vintage stuff! Think of the history the object has witnessed and now I get to add to its story.
@techgirl1908 I got you and you don’t even have to share your mac & cheese recipe with me! 😂
…..but if you wanted to co-host a potluck and you just happened to bring some and attached the recipe, I wouldn’t complain….
@notcapnamerica I’m glad that, instead of dismissing her with “you’re an idiot”, he took her concerns seriously and addressed them calmly and respectfully point by point.
@red_chem_lite@InternetH0F You can confront all you want. And the guy in the OP literally wrote “poison” on his lunch. Just because you tell a person to please do something doesn’t mean they will do it. I can’t control that person. I can only control myself. So I changed my pattern.
@GaryWinslett Let’s add the role of my husband, who landscaped our yard with native plants and replaced our St Aug lawn with frogfruit that doesn’t need mowing and is covered with pollinators most of the year.
Let’s encourage city planners to use native turf, not St Aug.
@red_chem_lite@InternetH0F Yes. I started keeping my lunch in my desk drawer and eating in my office because one of my coworkers was notorious for helping himself to people’s lunches.
@Animes_N_Manga @Ewrinyill@LillianaFuture And truly, Brits can easily hold their own against Americans. I mean, they basically invented the clever comeback 😄
@Animes_N_Manga @Ewrinyill@LillianaFuture They sound rude, but I think the replies are meant playfully. Americans and Brits always needle each other goodnaturedly. We are like siblings sharing a bedroom for too long. But, like siblings, woe betide the outsider who comes for either of us.
