My most BEAUTIFUL dreamcatcher to date. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ It's SO BEAUTIFUL I think I'm gonna keep it. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Sharon from Te Atatu South

Made with a piece of curly silver ribbon I found on the lawn left by the birds on my birthday (the Monday just gone!!!) wrapped round some loops of 24 gauge wire (forms the hoop), some transparent 0.5mm thick stretchy jelly elastic (the web part, and the tie to the safety pin, which I Blu-Tacked onto a shelf of my computer table! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ) and some very thin transparent nylon thread (to attach the feathers), some iridescently-painted transparent odd-shaped glass beads from a packet, and some white feathers (also shed by the pigeons on the front lawn). ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

What it feels like speaking with a MAGA American:

Markus from Green Bay

Me: โ€œYour total is $44.19. Cash or card?โ€
The customer hands me a credit card but the chip inside it has been hole-punched out.
Me: โ€œUh, I donโ€™t think this will work.โ€
Customer: โ€œWhy not? It hasnโ€™t expired and I have money in my account.โ€
Me: โ€œSirโ€ฆ the chip is gone.โ€
Customer: โ€œI didnโ€™t want the chip.โ€
Me: โ€œThe card wonโ€™t work without it.โ€
Customer: โ€œIt just means I canโ€™t enter my PIN, but you can still swipe it.โ€
Me: โ€œI donโ€™t think it will work, sir.โ€
Customer: โ€œJust swipe it.โ€
I swipe it to prove a point.
Me: โ€œItโ€™s not working, sir.โ€
Customer: โ€œThen youโ€™re doing it wrong. Swipe it again!โ€
I do so again with the same result.
Customer: โ€œMaybe you should swipe it so that the magnetic strip isnโ€™t the thing being swiped?โ€
Me: *Swiping it as suggested.* โ€œSure, why not? About as much chance of it going through without the magnetic strip as there is without the chip โ€“ oh look, it didnโ€™t work.โ€
Customer: โ€œYour machine must be broken!โ€
