Pin voor Japanse Duizendknoop?

Pin voor Japanse Duizendknoop?

Gewoon een suggestie! Ik weet uit ervaring dat modteams druk zijn en niet overal aan (kunnen) denken.

Viel me namelijk op dat er veel posts zijn die vragen of iets een Japanse Duizendknoop is, sommige duidelijker wel dan niet. En dan de vraag "wat doe ik hier aan". Ik denk dat een gepinde verzamelpost met linkjes best nuttig kan zijn.

Looking for key organizers ! (Orbitkey alternative)

My mom and I suffer from ''too many keys with too many rings'', so I want to give her one of these key organizers for her 60th birthday (and get a matching one for myself). So far I've only really found Orbitkeys with the desired design-type (see pic) and aside from them not being EU, I like having options to browse through. That, and I don't trust the random brands on bol.com or amazon to not just randomly break in two years.

I've found another post about keyorganizers, but they all look very industrial or metal-y. What I like about the Orbitkey ones is that it looks more stylish than just practical, and there is a nice ring for a car key. No need for all these smart functions or other gimmicks.

EDIT: Ring for a car key is a must for my mom's line of work!

So pretty early in me figuring out I was non-binary, I got told to only use enby as abbreviation as NB stood for non-black. And went with it, because what do I know, right?

But now years later I see a lot of people of all skincolours use NB in bios to mean non-binary and such and actually rarely if ever see people use it as "non-black" because people just spell it out usually, and now I just want to touch base with the community to see current day consensus. For context, I'm autistic, clarity and the "why" of things is kinda important when things become unclear.

So what is today's opinion on enby and NB, especially as nonbinary seems to be the most common usage of the abbreviation online?

I'm genuinely asking btw, as I've been "one guy'd" before by a really small part of a community into thinking something was a bigger deal than it was. But also to know if I should inform people if they use NB whether they should change it up. Thanks in advance!

🔥 Hot ▲ 7.0k r/Frieren

Needed to share this fun realisation, bear with me: I just finished watching Frieren for the first time and as a Dutch person, I know some basic German, so all the character names and areas revealed their main characteristics to me immediately. Which was kinda fun, and this is probably mentioned a lot in the community since the manga started serialising.

HOWEVER, I then realised this must be how a lot of Japanese people feel watching anime as a lot of times characters have some meaning hidden in their names relating to their powers or appearances, and I sometimes pick up on it with my basic Japanese vocab, but it never took me out of immersion. But for Frieren it did as I'm much more familiar with the language and it just made me chuckle a bit.

Now I wonder how often there were obvious character hints or plottwists that were just STARING ME IN THE FACE in other shows I never picked up on.

Honestly, now I want to start translating more names. Thank you Frieren for giving me this random bit of joy xD

I'm AFAB and recently had topsurgery and it finally made me consider going swimming again after what must be a decade. But I can't have my scars in the sun for the first year, so I'll still need to wear some sort of top.

Problem is: I'm a bit stuck. From what I can find, most female swimwear seems to be clearly for some sort of chest with all the extra fabric (and mine is flat now obviously) and the men's swim tops I see online are basically full tshirts made of swimming fabric. I'm probably looking into it the wrong way.

What do you all wear? Any specific brands you like? Any tips for looking?
