Here's a view from the top. Most of the body was just continuously crocheted curved (dec on one side, inc on the other), then I sewed it up a bit to hold the shape I wanted. It's kind of short for a snake, since its length was mostly depended on the belly colour which was (at the start) 1 used, continuous ball and 2 balls of scraps, but I'm happy it got as far as it did anyway ;)

Not sure about favourite, but:

Clint's Reptiles (zoology, not just reptiles) is nice! Not sure how I feel about the reaction content, but he does stuff like animals-as-pets reviews, animal phylogeny videos (evolutionary trees) and some other videos that might be more interesting/understandable to watch.

Cleo Abram (various science and tech stuff) is fun, though I mostly see/watch the shorts. Similar with NileRed (chemistry), but his videos can be pretty long, haha

There's also an official animated series of xkcd's "What If?"! The videos aren't long, but they're fun.

Hey, what a coincidence! I'm reading "What If?" too haha. Started reading his books with "How To?" since I wasn't sure if these two were for me (and if I wanted to buy it when there's a channel), but I'm hooked.

Someone on !crochet@lemmy.ca asked me about crossposting over here - if posts like these (without real snakes) are not allowed/welcome please let me know!

Here's a view from the top:

Yeah, I feel like it matters a lot which parent is 1) more engaged/active/shares your interests 2) nicer/more understanding.

Not at all! What does crossposting mean on the threadiverse? Is it just reposting or posting a link?

aww, cute!

If I need a burner email I can generate a temporary one on Tempmail

Other than that - my account for "less important stuff" is just one of my old ones. ;)

Seems it varies instance by instance. On fedia I can hover over someone's username with my cursor and alongside some info on their account there's a field for notes (haven't tested to see if it saves between devices, but there is a save button, so maybe it does). I don't see a note option on my mander account.

Thank you!

Looking at two articles I'm not sure it'd count as mosaic crochet since I only worked into the last round, never* the round before that. I think it's just a colour change?

Sometimes I carried the unused thread all the way, sometimes I crocheted it in for the first stitch or two of using a new colour and then left it to grab later (this makes it so there's free thread going through the middle). This applies to the stripes on the tail, too - it's just starting and ending the second colour in different places, no working into rows already worked into.

/*aside from whatever that was once or twice when there was a big enough hole ;')

Fun. Hilarious. The chapters are definitely longer than what I can see so far with "What If?", so that's a point to "How To?" in my book, but there are subchapters if you need them. If you enjoy science and xkcd's sense of humour it's definitely a great read.

Inny komentator może mieć rację. Jakie masz w ustawieniach zaznaczone języki? Możliwe, że część komentarzy na szmerze ma ustawiony język na polski, a część nie.

Ja żeby zobaczyć komentarze pod tym postem z konta lemmy (mander.xyz) musiałam zaznaczyć język polski na liście -- żeby mieć kilka (np. polski, angielski i Undetermined/nieokreślony) to przytrzymywałam Ctrl i wtedy klikałam w opcję

Bump. I know thebrainbin.org uses Anubis, so probably no Cloudfare? Not 100% sure if they automatically accept registration, but there doesn't appear to be any "enter a reason why you want to join" field like on a bunch of Fediverse sites that don't.

Started working on some extra stuff for a miniature environment thingy yesterday, so that was fun. Also pretty recently finished a little hognose snake (by ComplicatedKnots - YouTube)!

Ah, sorry haha

O

I believe "instances" here refers to Fediverse instances, not Reddit

To be honest, I don't think I paid much attention to that being a thing haha (although fedia has notes, not tags). Back when I used Discord I sometimes added notes, mostly about nicknames and stuff - but this isn't my "chatting with friends and recognising people" space, so not sure I'll use them.

fair point ;)

Been listening to Kwiat Jabłoni a lot again lately - I love their music, though they only sing in Polish so not sure anyone here cares haha
