@MiraLazine love this!! any chance you can add a submission box? (With a section for source cited ofc :p). I'm sure there's a bunch out there that people might think of and want to add.

@ElderWendigo @MiraLazine agree to disagree, a lot of those things I was definitely taught - if not in school then at least by adults who thought it common knowledge. Especially the nosebleeds (I had them all the time as a kid, and the amount of blood I ended up swallowing is..... A lot.) and knuckle cracking (my guess - started by teachers annoyed by kids making knuckle-noises during class)
Christopher columbus was definitely taught as an "American hero" up until he wasn't.
@bob_wiley also a bit click baitey, but I also found an article of why he left Hollywood :( https://www.today.com/popculture/movies/mean-girls-rajiv-surendra-reason-he-left-hollywood-rcna69448
Seems like he's still doing what he loves though and enjoys it.
@bob_wiley genuinely just spent the last half hour watching this guy wrap presents - he gets so much joy out of it!
Reminds me of the start of every school year: my mom and I would sit and wrap my textbooks up in calendar paper, making sure the nice pictures ended up on the front cover.
Gotta step up my wrapping game now - I don't know if I can commit to tossing all my dept store Christmas wrap yet, but I think it's gonna be butcher paper or those awesome vintage posters for birthdays etc.
@Tini @Stoney_Logica1 wait is that how that works? If you get first you stay in diamond? I've been bouncing around obsidian and diamond these past few weeks based on my level of motivation (and the number of 2x boosts I get)
@UsernameLost @ericbomb glad you were able to push past the doubts and treat yourself. Hopefully all the cool projects that come out of it will prove it's worth even more for you :) (and don't chop your finger off pls)
@bob_wiley @ericbomb I think you just blew my mind a little. I've never thought of it that way before.
As someone who loves wrapping (my and anyone else's who will let me) gifts around Christmastime, I think I'll try doing just ribbons this year.
Any pictures of how it turned out?
@Moobythegoldensock @ericbomb that's amazing!!! I hope you keep it up :) starting a new habit like that and keeping it consistent ain't easy - glad you're nailing it so far.
@MiraLazine also there's the possibility -- you may be at risk of getting flooded with submissions :p
