Yeah, probably an old wives tale, I guess

Huh, TIL. Thanks

I can't speak for all women but I think I'd try to have enough of both food and pads/tampons if I could. Pads are much more efficient at absorbing than a bundle of cloth and are cleaner, so wouldn't cause thrush and other infections

Pads and tampons are also good first aid supplies - I think tampons were first invented to plug bullet holes

Yes, well done. The US is behind Iraq and Zimbabwe so of course nothing needs to be done in the US until those countries sort their shit out

Yeah, by stuffing moss and bundles of cotton in their knickers. If it's a choice of that or stocking up on pads when I'm raiding Tesco, I know which one I'd rather

[–] Evia 4 points 7 months ago

Yeah, seeing that they have a physical location has ruined me

[–] Evia 2 points 7 months ago

Yeah, I like the sustainability of it - and there's so much that knitters can make use of

[–] Evia 2 points 7 months ago

No problem. I'm always on the look out for sustainablity in the craft world so got a bit excited when I saw this

[–] Evia 4 points 7 months ago

Eh, if he's already saying it, might as well make it true

Imagine being selected for jury on this case. It'd be so surreal

'nothing of value' - I think purplepuppy was suggesting that people/migrants/human lives have value

I think it depends on need vs want. Does she need her cats, friends and most of the crew? No, she just wants them. Most large venues are able to povide staging crew, for instance. I can see a 'need' for a stylist or lighting director for example, since a local placeholder just wouldn't be able to re-create the exact style or look that they want.

But that's not enough people to warrant a private jet. I think it'd be more justifiable for the plane to be fitted with regular passenger seating and for those seats to be sold to the public as commercial travel
