The sock in the original post had the BOR in the centre of the heel, and the decrease rounds were k1, ssk, work in pattern to last 3 st, k2tog, k1. In the second sock it was k5 between the BOR and decreases to line up with the decreases for the heel turn (I use the Dutch/square heel).

I don't have a pattern – I saw someone (it may have been @roxmpls.bsky.social) say in a video that you can put the decreases pretty much anywhere you like, so I've just been experimenting since. I'm working on a pair now with the gusset decreases in line with the heel turn decreases - looks v good.

It's been a little while since I've read it, and maybe it's time for a reread because I don't remember it being so horny.

We rightly put limits on freedom of speech and expression, and we should be proud that we do. Don't be tricked into saying that some forms or speech and expression don't count. We do have limits to freedom of speech and expression, and those limits are good.

I don't know what the point of all of this is. My 20s were hell and they might have been better if that fuckwit GP had treated my depression instead of my boyfriend's vanity, but also I wouldn't have ended up with the actually pretty fantastic life I have now. So swings and roundabouts really.

I did dump the awful boyfriend, though with the assistance of a friend who threatened to kill him if he ever saw him near me again. My mental health did improve quite a bit, and I think my acne scars, which are barely noticeable, make me look distinguished.

Unsurprisingly, my acne did improve, but I was too mentally unwell to notice, even in the doctor's office while he was showing me before and after photos, and I ended up dropping out of uni to watch Loose Women while chain smoking Camel lights and drinking Mateus rosé.

Like I said, even I don't understand any more and I lived it! Like when I was out with my Dad, if he needed to talk to someone, we would physically go to the pub where we knew they would be. You didn't remember people's phone numbers; you remembered which pub they drank at.

That we were not constantly online is not what's difficult to understand, but it's what that meant for how we organised our social lives. The amount of time we spent waiting for other people a d wondering where they were. The importance of meeting points. The importance of being predictable.
