@HamoDonk @simonwaight I could see that in some cases, but not this particular one. If you want to avoid ambiguity, actually saying “I’d ask you but I suspect you’re not interested for X reasons…” is a good idea. Otherwise you’re making an assumption that I will not assume the worst in return.


@jsscclr Right? And it really sucks when they know it’s an issue you care about, because then if you don’t offer to help, it absolves them of making any sort of effort themselves. Ugh.

I am not a morning person, but breakfasts like this reward the effort. https://t.co/nxdFBCcu4E https://t.co/OWBQOft4An


Watching “Nailed It” and CRYING with laughter. 😂 I needed that.


@elreadsalot6 You could try knitting continental style (working yarn in left hand) if you’re not already. It’s generally considered faster once you get the hang of it.


@elreadsalot6 I suuuuck at continental so I only do it when I have to (like using two colours in fair isle).


This Look Inside Spike Jonze’s Apple Ad Is as Fascinating as the Film Itself https://t.co/1ebUhFrg3o // I love this. I had no idea so much of it was done practically. That’s so cool.
