- Comment on when doing laundry... while switching it over from washer to dryer...you find a sock on the floor that didn't get washed. If you put it in the dryer with the wet laundry will it come out clean? 1 week ago:
If that worked you could skip the washing it and just use the drier.
- Comment on What is the name of this knot? And how does one tie it? 1 week ago:
Unsure of its original purpose, but when I purchased the canoe, the seller belied me load it and we used trucker’s hitches going through the loops of these knots. From what I remember the loop did not slip when pulled, but if you pulled the tail the whole knot came undone.

When I loaded the canoe onto my suv the seller and I used the loop in the knot to tie a trucker’s hitch to secure the canoe to my roof.

There were already in the line when I got the canoe, the seller helped me load it onto my suv. We used the loops to tie a trucker’s hitch to secure the canoe.
What function they served prior to my purchase is unknown. There were two ropes, one tied to each the bow deck and the stern deck. They were tied at the center of the rope with equal lengths on either side of the loop on the deck. Then near the end of each end of the rope was one of these knots.

This was taken back in 2017, one end goes to the canoe, the other end was not terribly long. I will see if there is still one knot tied, which there may be as we do not have much water in New Mexico any longer and taking the canoe out to a dry riverbed is not much fun.

Yes it is considered a slur by many people.
Reading your description, does this character need a label? Could you create your own word, like Nelwyn in Willow? Which I realize that is used to describe an entire group. Maybe that word is what is used in your world to describe what we would in real life call a little person.

- Comment on Why is this community looks empty when looking from other instances? 1 month ago:
!us_news@lemmy.world is 4 hours old, it is probably not yet federated with your instance. Once someone is subscribed it should start pulling in posts.
!world_news@lemmy.world could not be fetched by my instance, I am guessing it is new as well and the same thing is happening. Either that, or it is set to local only.
- Comment on Every time I take my kid to a playground 1 month ago:
The big park in the little town where I live used to be soccer fields, now they built a huge soccer complex. But the city refuses to plant trees at this park because the kids might want to play soccer on it still. It used to be 3 soccer fields, reduce it to 1.

Yes. But I’m addition to the normal pay you get for working you also get to fine the production. I made more in those 3 days than I normally made on set in a week, and only 1 of the 3 days was actually filming, the rest was prep work for me.

I worked in the movie industry in New Mexico for 2 years. Most stuff i did a small budget, non-union pictures. Then i worked 3 days for a union show, i was not union, but the job i was doing had union protections (teamsters) I got a bonus every 15 minutes we were late to lunch, i got a bonus because we wrapped late, i got paid 3 times as much for my kit.

- Comment on Why can't I change the terms and conditions in a pre-signed contract with a corpo? 1 month ago:
I tried doing this with my landlord. I moved my business into a building with the understanding that after a year I would buy it. Around the year mark the LL started dragging his feet about the Salé and started to say he was going to open a business in one of the vacant suites, or boot a tenant he kept having issues with, and open in their suite.
Then the disliked tenant had a fire that severely damaged the building. While repairs were in progress the LL agreed to sell the building to the problem tenant without any word to me. The sale was over a year out when I had to renew my lease. He sent me a word doc to sign, it had his signature already added. I added a clause saying if he was to sell I had to decline in writing before he could sell. He only noticed because it changed the page count of the lease.
I really wish I had added it to my initial lease.
