@calculsoberic Right? I get that reaction too, sometimes in person, in a city that should know better!

@foxhkron I enjoy the views from a train, from any window or angle. Some US trains have panaromic view cars, AKA observation cars, sightseeing lounge. Big comfortable swivel armchairs. Wonderfully relaxing! (I am not neurodivergent to the best of my knowledge)

@lowqualityfacts well, if you put them in iambic pentameter and make the whole paper scan and rhyme, while also making sense, you might get away with it.

@todayilearned That should be 2^82,589,933-1 the carat symbol indicates an exponent/power. Without it, the number is something entirely different

@todayilearned Doesn't mean they're the most dangerous, just means they're the ones people don't go out of their way to avoid.

Pot pie:(If you wish, comment which state, region, or country you were living in when you first met pot pies, and is that particular style of pot pie still the one true pot pie?)

@futurebird @drakenblackknight There's still some functionality it offer that no one else has - mainly groups. The Heart Transplant Support Group I'm one of the mods for - lets several thousand people talk to eachother about this specific topic; it's a private group with moderated admission, so its page doesn't get anything else except member posts. It's got file space for shared documents. No one else has anything like that that is as accessible and easy to find.

@futurebird @Vive_Levant @drakenblackknight But on the other hand, way back in the early 90s I was a volunteer forum host on AOL, and years later someone filed a class action claimimg the terms under which hosts operated made us employees so we should have been paid - and won! So maybe 12, 13 years later I got a check for over a grand. It can happen!

JoAnn's closing virtually all stores by April will be a problem for sewists. The other 2 big craft chains don't stock much fabric; local quilt shops generally don't stock knits, rayon, denim, gauze and other clothes-making staples. And as far as I know, JoAnn's is THE major outlet for the big pattern companies - I suspect this will be close to a death blow for Simplicity/McCalls/Butterick/Vogue. So now would be a good time for #sewists to stock up on copies of your staple #SewingPatterns.

Because yes, you can order online from their web site, but once people are looking online for sewing patterns, they're far more likely to buy from smaller companies that sell on Etsy and specialty sewing websites, where the patterns have extensive descriptions, ratings, customer reviews, pictures of customers' finished garments, etc., which the SimplicityEtc. website doesn't have.

@tomjennings No, other cities do not. New York does. I can't think of any other city I've lived in that does.

@Nonilex The idiot who understands zilch about money as evidenced by the "success" of his tariffs wants to destroy whatever's left.
