Help!

How can I explain to someone that making their webpage harder to skim, in order to force people to read it thoroughly, will have the opposite effect?

edit: trying to resist reactively replying to this person with OMG that is so ableist, please just no

edit 2: i'll reply to this with what i actually sent them

edit 3: i am now trying to find ways to make their page MORE skimmable 😈 as retaliation lol

MsHearthWitch,
@MsHearthWitch@wandering.shop avatar

@dyani For real. I will absolutely check out if a page is just walls of text requiring me to read thoroughly. Especially if not all of it is the info I need. I want to be able to skim to find the thing, then read deeper if needed.

@MsHearthWitch@wandering.shop avatar

@dyani People always think they're the exception. That the information on THEIR page is so important and special that SURELY ppl will read it carefully and thoroughly.

Morning 🥱

Am impatiently checking courier tracking this morning. I invested in a new yarn swift this month, as my current one no longer holds it's shape and won't hold yarn anymore.

Just signed up for the Wonkee digital yoga retreat in July... which means I'll be on the mat at 6 AYEM.

Cuz this is the person I am right now.

Yoga is the hyperfixation du jour and I'm thrilled for that to be the case.

Chicken lettuce wraps for dinner. Super simple and absolutely DELISH.

Thinking for lunch tomorrow I'm gonna use the leftover chicken on rice, topped with the cucumber.

@Willow Ginger, 5 spice, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar and a bit of salt.

MsHearthWitch,
@MsHearthWitch@wandering.shop avatar

@Willow Yeah the balsamic gives it a bit of a zesty depth.

And it really is SO good. Very warming and filling but not uncomfortable.

Did another yoga class this morning. The Wonkee Club's practice this month are two sessions paired together, designed for morning/evening.

Had some trouble with the forward fold though... Uncertain if an instructor can help with this specific issue.

I really love how casual and comfortable the practice is. I wasn't bothered by my dog, I took a few moments to give him some love and attention and then continued with the session. It feels so... for me.

I did the yoga class last night. The pain had largely let up but my whole body felt tight and uncomfy.

The class was brilliant, truly. The instructor's energy is perfect for me, very welcoming and fun and just a lil cheeky.

There's another class in an hour, I think I'm gonna do it :)

On repeat 10 out of 21 for this shawl, then a large heavily beaded border section.

This section has beads too but they're small and frosted and harder to see, but I'm hoping they'll catch sunlight nicely.

~220 stitches per row at this point, +2 every RS row. Each repeat is 12 rows total, so an increase of 12 stitches.

It's gonna be... a lot of stitches at the end. But damn I'm getting good at continental purling!

@elmyra It's the Rubina Lace shawl: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/rubina-lace-shawl

But I have modified it to be longer and not wider.

MsHearthWitch,
@MsHearthWitch@wandering.shop avatar

@EdibleFuchsia Yes, that's why I love it so much, it has a timeless quality to it. And the yarn is very neutral and timeless as well.

Been in pain all day. The kind of pain where my whole body feels SUPER tight and my head throbs any time I move around to the point where the outsides of my vision blackens a little.

So that's been fun.

Maxed out my med intake for the day and barely put a dent in it. So now I have slathered my neck, shoulders and back in Oplopanax horridus cream. Sitting here watching some TV with my eyes mostly closed and an ice pack on my head.

It's helping, finally.

@elfkin It's easing up a bit, I can still feel it at the edges.

Thinking to try and attend a yoga class (on zoom) tonight before bed to help stretch out aching muscles so I don't have to deal with all this pain tomorrow.

Lil man (my dog Dexter) only came into my life about a year and a half ago.

He's off at the groomer's this morning and I feel like part of me is missing!

Despite yesterday's chaos I still managed to get to the butcher. There's a local butcher that's literally across the street from my new co-op grocery store.

They had some yummy chorizo that I'mma use in gumbo later this week. And I grabbed a packet of breakfast sausage patties (because I need to stop swinging by starbies to get a sammich b4 work).

Tried one this morning. HOLY SHIT that's so good. And the price is like, the same as the Johnsonville ones. So, yay?

Sad to have to cancel my Margreve D&D session this morning. I love DMing for those folks.

But with a few ppl not able to make it and my own body having quite a pain flare it just seemed like the universe was making the decision for me.

So I'm going to embrace a quieter morning, try to manage the pain and keep the headache from going full on migraine.

And lil man is going to the groomer's later!
