hello crafting nation! any tips on the most efficient way to cut a bunch of 5 inch squares if you need to use pinking shears? i have a rotary cutter and mat as well, so i could cut them to size then use the shears, but i’m not sure that would be more accurate…

have u ever been to the doctor for an ailment and they give u a prescription with the instructions to take half the drugs, and then only take the other half if the symptoms persist in 2 weeks or whatever. so that way if it does get better, you already have the drugs on hand if it comes back in the future, and you won't have to go to the doc again. do you know what i'm talking about? and then these pills are in your ownership indefinitely. you're just babysitting these pills for 4 years, moving them from house to house, sifting around them in your medicine bin. it's almost a relief when the condition returns. finally, i can take the pills. finally, i am free from this burden.

Context for anyone who is wondering: Lamine Yamal's parents won an UNICEF raffle for a charity photoshoot in which Barça players posed with kids, and 5 month old Lamine happened to get 20yo Messi. Which is like. Literally insane

>open the ms. it’s copy/pasted ai slop. literally one sentence per paragraph with emojis in it

>reset counter to 0 days since last ai-driven career disappointment. counter has not reached 1 in over a year

>send rejection

>author emails back

> (paraphrasing) “thank you for the honest constructive feedback. i can’t tell you how much it means to me that you took the time to explain your stance. transparently, i did write the entire manuscript, but i received the suggestion from trusted early reviewers that i should use ai to revise it and make it more readable/skimmable. rather than revising, it impacted the tone and style of the entire book. if you’re still open to considering it, i’ve attached my original manuscript (i used ai for absolutely none of it). please keep in mind that it is a rough earlier draft.”

>open the ms

>it’s a fantastic first draft that’s easy to read and dead on for the target audience

>struggle to respond with something other than “you are surrounded by either catastrophic morons or saboteurs actively praying for your downfall”

trying to delegate your most arduous and detested task and realizing in the process of retraining that the whole thing is a house of cards precariously balanced on a crumbling foundation and the shortcuts youve implemented are convoluted duct tape that’s impossible to explain… well whatever it’s your problem now
