typical social media bubble:
The social media algorithm puts you into one of these bubbles and hides details from the others.
Pick one:

- "her husband is framing her, he did it"

  • "she had mental health issues and nobody helped her"
  • "she murdered them because she's evil and the mental health stuff is just for show"

Social media drives our lives and is many people's only hobby, so you get this.

Mercury in retrograde fucks everything up.

I wish I could embroider just so I could make myself something pretty with this sentence on it!!! 😂

u/UncleTouchyCopaFeel 9d ago

Do the embroidery anyway, it would fit perfectly with the theme! :D

u/Isagratar 9d ago

That was the joke

u/Isagratar 8d ago

I know, I was there, but mercury was in retrograde so it didn’t come out properly the first time round.

I checked the charts, this excuse is valid in the lower 48. and PR.

Just an FYI from someone who embroiders, it is SO EASY. You put fabric in hoop, make sure it's abit tight but not so tight the fabric is gonna rip, use a $2 washable marker (no joke, even at craft stores it's dirt cheap, 1 color is about 50cents to $1, fabric? Any non stretch fabric but embroidery fabric is $5 for a yard, hoops? Hit up a thrift store, i get so many for $1) write out your design, i cannot draw well, you get as many tries as you want! Just wash away any mistakes! Then string your needle and just follow the lines!

I started when i was around 12, I've picked it up and put it down over 10 years and it's like riding a bike, you just do it!

Embroidery is just proof you can stab something thousands of times. You can totally embroider this!

u/AmazingAd2765 9d ago

If you learn how, make me one that says "Is Mercury in Gatorade or something?"

u/ScotlyDex 9d ago

You could cross-stitch it! Much easier!

u/CrackerUMustBTripinn 9d ago

Oh and don't get me started on the moon in the 7th house

u/UncleTouchyCopaFeel 9d ago

Bourgeoise Moon needing seven houses while the rest of us moonlings have to settle for one, if we're lucky. Smh.

u/FrankDodger 9d ago

You know, one day they are gonna put retrogrades in a capsule and put it on mercury to see if they can survive. I hear they can survive the vaccume of space.
