Any kandi kids want to trade at Breakaway this weekend?
Please review the updated rules
The rules were updated August 2, 2026 to be more specific and strict about AI images being posted here. No AI generated images, no AI videos, no art animated by AI, or art that is a trace or copy of something AI generated is allowed.
All artwork must be made by a human. Digital art is allowed, as are animated digital videos so long as there is no AI generation. If you post digital art, please name the program/s used to create it, like you would with the physical artwork.
As always, make sure to properly credit the artist if you did not create the art. A proper credit can be their name, social media handle, reddit username, website, etc. as long as it is an identifiable mark where you could search it and find the original artist.
Anyone posting stolen art as their own will be banned.
This is happening with increasing frequency. If you suspect a post has stolen art, please report it.

Looking for environmentally friendly trinket ideas
Hey guys, I'm looking for an environmentally friendly trinket idea - something without plastic. I'm planning to crochet little sprouts with cotton yarn. Any other ideas?
Do you put effort into getting enough fiber in your daily diet?
Effort means taking supplements, vitamins, using something you mix into liquid (like Benefiber), or deliberately adding vegetables specifically to get your fiber.
That time I accidentally drove through Manhattan. It was sunset and had just finished raining.
LPT: Use boxes instead of bags for your groceries when shopping
You can fit more items in, meaning fewer trips bringing things inside. Boxes are sturdier, and much less likely to rip than paper or plastic bags. You can stack your heavy items in a box without worrying it'll tear. You can reuse the same boxes for quite a while. It gives another use to what otherwise would be trash.
All of this is assuming that you're able to physically carry the heavier weight of the box.
How long would you wait on hold for customer service before giving up?
Your call is very important to us.
How do I clean Mr. Smooshy?
He has no tag or washing instructions and was a gift.
Recommendations for octopus clips that are actually XL?
I need a round octopus style hair clip that's actually XL, meaning 4+ inches across. I can't seem to find anything that can actually fit all my hair. I have waist long, thick hair I have to wear up for work. My old clip was about 4.5" and just broke. I thought it was Scunci, but I can't seem to find the same thing again.
Need help finding an octopus hair clip that's actually XL
My favorite hair clip just broke, and I absolutely can't seem to find a replacement. I have waist-long, thick hair and I can't find a clip big enough. My old one was about 4.5" wide and octopus style. I thought it was Scunci but they don't seem to make them anymore.
​
Can you please help me find a hair clip that's actually big enough? Nothing under 4" works but that's all I can seem to find.

Premonition
Hope a bit of a mixed media allowed there, background was made with watercolor, but the creatures with colored pencils.

I am so beyond disappointed by KnitPro. Their 2026 catalog is absolutely riddled with AI and they don't understand why it's problematic at all.
I work in the industry and had advanced access to KnitPro samples and their catalog. Y'all. Its HORRIBLE. My company did not order a single physical catalog because we refused to spend money on this slop. Every other page is some horrible atrocity. We let them know our thoughts on it exactly.
It really sucks because their new crochet hooks "Vybe" are actually really cool, I'm making a whole blanket with a sample hook. But the AI is completely out of control.
Sorry for the bad pics, I snuck them off my work computer. You can find this catalog online at their website. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on "Catalogue."
That cliffside house in Eastham, MA is finally being demolished this week
Finally, an end to the thrilling saga of the cliffside house that was about to fall into the ocean. Its finally being demolished and the owner still took zero responsibility, leaving it to the town of Eastham and accepting the monetary loss of his house.
The entire saga is a ridiculous story of dodging responsibility and just generally not giving a damn about anyone other than yourself.
If offered an all expenses paid trip, would you travel to North Korea?
reddit.comLPT: Putting a dryer sheet on the back of a fan is one of the easiest and most effective ways to deodorize a room
I learned this trick in college. Turn on fan and put one or two dryer sheets on the back. The air current will keep them in place while the fan is on. Its very effective at freshening the room and clearing any lingering odors, leaving you with a clean and fresh smelling room!
