Crochet Resources Masterlist

So, when I first started crocheting, I would have killed to have a masterlist of resources, so I’m gonna make one. Hopefully there will be some helpful links in here for people. This is by no means a complete list, but hopefully it’ll help get y’all started.

people with siblings: how do you feel about them?

I really can and will blame the 9-5 for everything. "We're in a loneliness epidemic" well, we have to spend a third of our day interacting with people in a professional way that makes forming real friendships difficult and then we're peopled out by the time we're done. "People are eating more and more unhealthily" people have to spend more than a third of their day doing work related tasks and they don't want to spend their tiny amount of free time making food. "People aren't involved in their local communities" after spending more than a third of their day doing work related things people are tired and also all those community events take place during normal working hours. "People need to get more hobbies" after spending more than a third of their day working, people are TIRED and don't want to do anything that takes yet more energy. "Literacy is dying" to maintain your critical thinking skills you need to read/watch things that make you think and after spending more than a third of your day doing work related stuff you are TIRED and don't want to expend even more brainnpower. "People need to get outside more" People. Are. TIRED. Because they have to spend all of their time working or preparing for work or recovering from work or doing all the chores they couldn't stay on top of because of work. I can blame fucking anything on having to work, it is truly the root of all fucking evil.

[ninanation]

Come to think of it, it really is insane that my entire country is burning alive and literally no one in the rest of the world cares. Thousands of Indians are dying every day from the heat, it's 45+ degrees in multiple areas, the government couldn't give two fucks, we're getting severe warnings and red alerts, and not a soul outside of South Asia is speaking about it because why would you ever care about brown people

[ninanation]

please keep talking about how Becky from Maryland doesn't like the rising gas prices. It's clearly the more pressing issue.

[creacher-art]

USA folks, that is a consistent temperature range hitting 113°. Death Valley temperatures. In Banda, it hovered between 116°-118° (47°-48° C) for a week straight.

This has been happening all month with little to no international media attention. Here are a few organizations you can check out for resources or to support:

ActionAid India

SEEDS India

GlobalGiving <- No longer taking donations

Raise India (Project Tapan)

Anyway that’s why you wear wool and a life jacket babeeeyyyy

[vampireapologist-archive-deacti]

The important thing about wool is that it continues to keep you warm even when it’s soaking wet.

Other natural fibers don’t do this. In fact, quite the opposite. Campers and boaters are usually familiar with the phrase, “cotton kills.” If you’re wet in cotton or linen, your clothes actually sap heat from your body.

If you sink in a lake in late October like I did today, staying warm is important. I was rescued long before I would’ve actually died, but cold makes your muscles seize up, which isn’t good if you have to swim to land.

Which brings me around to life jackets. If the water’s cold enough, you may only have five-ten minutes until your muscles seize (today I probably had 40-60, more than enough time to get to land if I hadn’t been picked up), and you’ll drown.

In a life jacket, even in extremely cold water, you can float semi-conscious for perhaps another 30 minutes or so before you actually freeze to death, which is usually when someone rescues you.

What’s more, you probably know that moving around on land warms you up. Jumping jacks, jogging in place, etc.

In water, moving actually makes you colder. You need to stay still curled up in a ball, which you can only do in a life jacket.

In wool AND life jacket, you’re warm, and your head’s above water, which is pretty much your only and entire goal.

If you’re allergic to wool, synthetics are available specifically for this purpose. I know I always say natural fibers are the way to go, but when it comes to safety, wear what protects you!

[vampireapologist-archive-deacti]

Yep! A really simple “experiment” I learned as a kid and now use in my own courses is sticking your hand in ice water. Compare moving it around in the water to curling it up in a fist. The contrast is stark!

To increase your survival time in on cold water, you want to curl up! If you’re with others, you want to huddle!

Again, both are only possible when wearing a life jacket!

[vampireapologist-archive-deacti]

I know a lot of people are reblogging this for writing reference, but I like to believe that 7,000 people on this site were actually continually living in fear about this specific situation and that when the time comes, I’ve prepared them with what they need to know to survive.

This is an awesome use of what is probably a master's degree if not a doctorate and I am 100% thrilled that she shared it even though it was embarrassing and she squeaked.

Thank you, adorable scientist, for making people's lives better.

Okay but like. I personally could not resist walking through there. How do you NOT. it's a hole in the woods?? How do you NOT want to go over there???? Insane???

[saijspellhart]

Logically, I know its a portal to the Fae realm. But I am powerless to resist, as the Fae intended.

[books-bread-and-brigandage]

*Looks at my life* "Ok so I'm the Fae's problem now? Cool."

[naamahdarling]

Brother you couldn't keep me outta there.

My wife’s idea of decompressing after the busy holiday was to rearrange every piece of furniture in our home is this an ADHD thing or just a her thing

I’m not complaining the way she’s done it is much better than it was it’s just like how is this your idea of a relaxing weekend

[kaity--did]

Listen I don't get to decide when the drunk elf that is my executive actually does the functioning but when he does we have a SMALL WINDOW OF TIME before he finds the schnapps again and we're done

[honeysbunchesofoats]

[kaity--did]

yes this exactly

[luminouspica]

So to me, there are spoons (general energy cost) and carnival tickets (specific energy cost).

Spoons can be used pretty much anywhere.

Carnival tickets are only good for the carnival, and it’s only in town for a limited amount of time.

So like, if I get “kitchen cleaning” carnival tickets, I can’t use that to clean my bedroom, that’s not where the carnival is.

EXTRAORDINARY ATTORNEY WOO (2022) dir. Yoo In Shik

[yidany]

Of the stayed and the departed.

[what-even-is-thiss]

I bought a used 2014 monster manual with my Christmas money. Anyways why are banshees female elves that used their beauty for evil

[what-even-is-thiss]

Why did they phrase it like this

[what-even-is-thiss]

There’s also a monster in this book that’s literally just a human hand. Specifically made from dead murderers’ hands.

Wait. Is thing from the Adams family a murderer?

Ah who am I kidding of course it is.

[legendarycollectionjellyfish3]

So I dont know that people are necessarily looking for an answer here, but as someone with an interest in folklore I may be somewhat helpful lmao

So in contienal celtic Europe, elf, goblin, pixie, the good folk/neighbors were all somewhat interchangeable words. So, technically, in the looses sense, you could in fact call a banshee an elf. The part it looses me on is "undead" and "evil" neither of which are true to my knowledge. Instead, banshee are a death omen. Their crying signals either your death or the death of someone you know. Often they are depicted as washer women who weep as they clean garments, but not always. They also may be tied to lineage, giving warnings to everyone of that line before they die.

What if Commander Fox was stuck in medical with two broken legs or something similarly incapacitating and actually stayed long enough to see a cool show rerun on TV and catch a hyperfixation? That would be cool and nice, right? Give the overworked man a hobby.

But the show isn't The Big Bang Theory or Friends or Grimm or anything like that. It's Leverage.

And Fox doesn't see a tragic hero in Nate Ford, not even in S1 - he sees himself. He sees a role model.

By the time the other commanders realize anything is going on, Fox has conned his way through six felonies and a Senate run, exposed the Chancellor as a double-dealing war profiteer and also a Sith because his hacker - a techy shiny aptly named Alec - checked the old dude's search history and comm channels. Thorn (yes they made him Parker bc he's blonde) steals enough hard drives to launch a smear campaign against anyone who runs against Fox for the newly vacant position of Chancellor and Quinlan Vos just stands by menacingly, enjoying his guard dog-Eliot role just a little too much.

The Jedi, the GAR, and the galaxy at large are stunned, slightly impressed, and very, very confused. Meanwhile, Fox and his team of highly skilled soldiers and the stray Jedi he dragged out of the garbage are just vibing like
