SKILL UNLOCKED, KNITTING ABILITY LEVELED UP

So I've been knitting a fair bit as of late, all sorts of shenanigans and funky little things and a thousand fancy plans. Only some stuff finished thus far, but a fair bit of learning new building blocks going on.

And in a fit of pique while trying to get some ridiculously tiny dense pointy picots out of a purlwise cable cast on base, being mad that my normal purling (wrapping the yarn counter-clockwise) made the yarn have to cross SO FAR to get back up to the needle, I just...crossed the yarn up clockwise instead, and it was so much better. Distracted from the picot situation by how well it worked, I wondered why it's not the norm, did a quick search, and...

Found I had accidentally stumbled upon combination knitting? Which (for flat stockinette and the like) involves purling clockwise, and then knitting through the back loop to untwist those stitches. And it has FIXED my purl tension! The left side of my flat stockinette no longer gains a giant, sad loop! (Hell, I think that selvedge might even be neater than the right side now.) And I still don't necessarily like knitting ribbing, or how it looks vs. other, funkier options. But a quick test of normal vs. combination ribs side-by-side? Hot damn, that combo rib looks GOOD.

...Now, to get back to seeing if I can wrangle those picots to do what I want, without resorting to smaller needles...

what were you expecting when you decided to sleep with an octoling that suspiciously has fish countershading -_-

neos not a maternal type but if she did ever have kids theres a good chance her weird heritage would show itself through them (which is definitely partly why she doesnt have much interest in them)

i enjoy watching/listening to stuff abt historical food and cooking, but tbh i've found that i've developed a bit of a pet peeve for the way that most of the people i come across who talk about these topics talk as if everyone in our current time lives in a home with the full range of electrical kitchen appliances and an full electric or gas stove/oven and reliable electricity and clean running water, and that nobody is living with and cooking using tools and techniques that they discuss as purely historical like "toils and hardships of the past" idk

Writing Across Genres: Blending Styles and Themes

When writers dare to venture into multiple genres within a single story, they open doors to creative freedom, unique storytelling experiences, and new ways to captivate readers. Writing across genres isn’t just about combining elements from two distinct categories, like romance and mystery, or science fiction and horror. It’s about weaving together themes, moods, and stylistic choices to form a…

So today's bowling was just another practice (not for a grade, sadly) BUT...

Fuckin Check It. I got a 135.

Slower start bc today's practice was over footwork, & when I was focusing on the steps I wasn't able to control the trajectory as well. But you can see where it just Clicks for me, and then I managed to get a fuckin. 135.

If I can do at Least this well on Monday, then that's like. A fucking Massive improvement. Considering my two graded games were 81 and 68, this is OVER 50 points more than my prior best score.

Already blew my 100 points goal out of the water. At this rate, I'm gonna need a 200 points goal or something.
