You know you're doing the right thing when you have to instruct your employees not to wear your brand to avoid confrontation.

Well it sounds like most of us really can't! She's probably just having a moment of irrationality as we all do from time to time. There's probably something else going on but I doubt it's worth it to try to figure it out.

Did she say why she was upset? Is she worried she's eating too many? Just that she thought it was a prank and not nice?

I don't think you're an AH, but it does sound like your wife might be insecure about how much chocolate she's been eating. I'm picturing her telling herself "I'll let myself eat this much but then I'm back on a diet!" Or something to that effect. Then come to learn you've been foiling her plan in the background. Which is also something someone who is insecure about stuff might not want to say: that they are on a diet or worried about eating too much.

All just a bunch of assuming.

I really really enjoyed the second one in particular.

I live in Denver and in 2020 there was a proposed bill to limit abortion access. I had a vague idea of what TST did so my desperate googling landed me on their membership page. Now I keep my religious abortion ritual card in my pocket, just in case.

I relate to this, I am in a number of support groups on Reddit. I ended up just making the knitting community here because I didn't know what I was doing and now I'm a mod. I really want to set up a c/stopdrinking community here but that's a mod role I am not willing to take on.

This was so super fun to make and was really impressive to show off when I was done, but I worry that the swoncho style is a little impractical for actually wearing. My recipient was in another state so if I make something in this style for myself I might bring up the sleeve separation. I made it in KP comfy for washability.

The Witching Hour by Hannah Mann

 

I wasted my youth not reading this beautiful series by Ursula K. LeGuin and I thought it deserved to be the first post here. Having read so much fantasy over the years, I can see so much of it in the books that have come out more recently. It's the type of book that is written so that every single word has a purpose, and doesn't languish in one place or another. I highly recommend the audiobook version as well.
