Last Notes npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I’ll never forget how they told me results of my sleep study. They were like “well you don’t have sleep apnea or narcolepsy. You do have mild idiopathic daytime hypersomnia. That means we don’t know what causes it. Try to get more sleep and take more naps.” npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mpm6 Yay! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Me: I definitely don’t need any more spinning fiber. Look how much beautiful stuff I have that I haven’t spun yet npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 There’s no need assuming you have enough yarn to finish if you need it. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 I totally would have weighed the skein to see how far it goes npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 I like how they let your ball of yarn just kind of roll around without going anywhere! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mpm6 Hello again! Hope you are feeling better! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 I found them totally useable for the purpose, and better than similarly sized DPNs which I find awkward. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 I don’t know if I’ve specifically seen these but I do have longer ones in bigger sizes (read: not sock sizes) so I guess it’s probably these?? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 I see you, @nprofile…ldg2 and I are riffing on the same theme here. I didn’t want to refer to any specific “gods” in my toot, but hey, (attempting to) fix that would be tempting fate for sure. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 It is what makes the product look homemade. Fixingit would be angering the handmade crafties spirits. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I’ve spent a large part of this birthday lying down with my dog on top of me and tbh what could be better npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 A basic brioche knit hat pattern. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 I mean should not and then I typed should lol. Anyway what does she think now that everyone else wants one? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 Harlow? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…hqk5 Ha fantastic. What did your wife say when you told her? Wasn’t she the one who thought you should make one? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I’m doing Spindle Bingo over on IG so if any of you are interested it would be great to see you join. I might do some light spindle bingo posting here but it will be mostly over there npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I finally finished my Lego train and Xmas house set up in front of the Christmas Tree. This happened after Christmas but we will leave it out for the next couple months I hope. #lego #afol npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx He lokks so happy and it looks fantastic on him! Yayyyyyyyy! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx That’s amazing. How wonderful. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx How do you have time to do all the things. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Also Oregon trail but I don’t know if non US peeps played that npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx At first when I read this, I thought, hey, characters from PoP. But now I am thinking you should do a side scroller along the scarf from PoP like going through a couple key scenes and you can repeat the prince a couple of times. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Also Tetris npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Oh I see. Prince of Persia. Or the Olympics games. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Donkey Kong or Mario - or Super Mario? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx It’s the holidays! Also that plate contains a salad so you’re good. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Oh yes of course I do! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Wait an instruction video for how to make a video of the gift opening? Yes, I want to see it lol npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx It’s not overhyped npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Hey @nprofile…mssx - any chance of getting a reaction video for when your friend opens his epic scarf gift? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx You patience and determination know no bounds, sir. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Oh no!!!! I’m not familiar with this yarn you keep mentioning but :( npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Well this is at least a fun adventure! And as a heads up, when I get to the heel, I usually use another needle just to make it easier to handle the shaping. I have multiple sets of flexiflips in the same size so this is easy for me, or i sometimes grab just an extra DPN or a smal circ in the same size. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…n926 @nprofile…efnw The hardest thing for me honestly is the fact that as a Chinese person who speaks no Chinese dialect it’s very difficult to communicate to order what I know I want without any ability to read or speak the language. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…7vpl I think it’s fabulous. I’m surprised you find it boring. I’ve always liked entrelac because the changes keep me interested. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I have posted individual pics each of the last 3 days, same as what I’m doing on IG. But I don’t think anyone here is doing this advent so I’m just going to post my actual progress now - I’ve completed 15 days. I love them so much. The yarn is fabulous and the colors match so well with the inspiration graphic. Love the little tote it came with too. #Sockknitting #knitting #fiberArts #AdventCalendar npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx @nprofile…wg59 “Everyone insisted” hey it’s your fault you didn’t ask your friend earlier whether he liked all the shows. You absolutely could have skipped Voyager. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx This is already in my Rav favorites lol. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Does your friend like ds9? It’s my favorite Star Trek so I’d personal want it. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I’m spinning this lovely batt from Fossil Fibers - Bacon Burner based on Calcifer. Plan is to chain ply once the singles are completed to maintain the gradient. I really feel I’ve learned a lot in this spin - first, about long draw / woolen spinning. Second, that I’m less of a perfectionist spinner than many people I’ve met, and growing comfortable with intuitive spinning. It will be what it will be. Might not be the most consistent spin but it will be beautiful. #handSpinning #FiberArts npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx I used to speak German but these days I can mostly listen / read it - generating words is really tough. I lived there 30 years ago (?!) and the last time I passed an exam in it was 20 years ago already. Holy cow. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Kind of? It did manage to occupy my brain. I think thinking about spinning eventually worked. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx I tried this. And what I noticed it that i need to think of a lot more words that start with E. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Trying to go to sleep and instead my mind is plotting out what to move around next in the kitchen cabinets since phase 1 was completed earlier today. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx YESSSSSS! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Details plz npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx You: “I don’t get frustrated” npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Oh wow I’m sorry to hear this. How frustrating. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy It was my goal in my 50th year to get new body art commemorating my love of fiber arts. I’m running behind since my 50th year ends in January, but at least I have finally found a tattoo artist I hope to work with. I am going to write to him with my concept and see if he’s interested in working with me. (My concept is less gothic than these) I know many of you don’t use IG so here are some screenshots along with link to his IG. #tattoos #fiberArts #knitting #handSpinning npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…0lj9 So cool! Coming together well. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx It’s coming along so well! He is going to be thrilled with it!!!!! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…0lj9 I’ve been looking at the finalized ones and I really like them! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Tonight’s dinner: five-spice duck breasts; duck fat roasted potatoes; air-fryer Brussels sprouts with shallot butter and grated parmigiana reggiano. Four of us managed to eat 5 2/3 duck breasts, leaving enough for lunch tomorrow. #homeCooking #Cooking #food npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx The yarn is turning out amazingly well in this usage. So good! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I know people live-toot strictly. Is anyone going to be live tooting #gameofwool ? we can’t watch it yet stateside and I can’t decide if I’d rather have spoilers or no spoilers for when it finally does come here. #knitting #tv npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Time to wrap up in lots of good handknits! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…7vpl That’s amazing! Can’t wait to see if you enjoy spinning. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx I always find this confusing that it happens on a different day in Europe than in the US…. Ours is not until Nov 2 this year. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx I already said this on IG but I think it turned out great. The cables are a bit blurred but they are still there. And, as a felted object, you won’t have to be as careful with it as you would have had to be before! It will last a good long time. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Oh dear. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx What are you going to try? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx I’m so excited to see this come together npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx What are you going to print? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…mssx Good morning, and good night! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Went down to the LYS today and sat knitting with companions for a couple of hours. So good to have that time to relax in a positive, friendly environment. Made progress on my Fox Whisperer shawl. This thing is going to be enormous. I’m only through 2 sections out of 6 (including border) and each 2 rows increases by FOUR stitches. It’s an easy knit and pretty satisfying so hopefully I’ll be able to stick with it. #knitting #Fiberarts npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…8t0c You got this! I like the spoilers I have seen so far - looks fun and awesome! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…dafa I made an entrelac cowl that I wear kind of doubled around for extra warmth. Could you do enough length for that? You basically make a scarf and join the ends. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Partner Person (PP): “you can’t leave your stuffies that way” (when we go out of town) npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…8t0c Hope you are doing better soon npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…t2zk I cannot wait to see you knit this up npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…t2zk Wheeeeeee!!!! npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy About a week into #FinishOrFrogAlong - today’s Q&A is a check-in. How are you doing? What are you doing? Have you been crafting? Finishing? Starring new projects? Taking a break? Feeling stressed or relaxed? How can we help? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Today's #FinishOrFrogAlong Q&A: Are you on Ravelry or another crafting community site? What site or apps do you use? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I have a finished object for #FinishOrFrogAlong ! It’s a Purl Soho Home Life Washcloth, which my dad absolutely loves for using in the kitchen. Making more of them for him was one of my fiber intentions for this year, so yay! #knitting #handmade npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Packing for “home” after 8 months of mostly being in this 2nd home. My fiberarts travel kit is getting out of hand. I am checking in a rolling carry-on sized bag with one e-spinner and accessories plus a suitcase packed with my other e-spinner, fiber, knitting WIPs, and support spindles / projects / project bags. Too much? 👻😇 #spinning #knitting #fiberArts npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I just de-stashed a bunch of yarn and fiber. And yet I was looking in my stash closet and seeing yarn I’m not sure when I’m going to use. I can tell it will be a part of my next destash so in some ways I’m wondering…. Why didn’t I just destash it now? Just to hang onto the dream and looking at it plotting what beautiful thing it could one day become? Never? #knitting #yarn #fiberArts npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…jx7w @nprofile…hlkx Omg so cute npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I just watched the movie Strange Magic with Rumble (yes, my dog likes animated movies with lots of music). Apparently it was a box office bomb which I can kind of understand because it’s very weird. But it’s my kind of weird. Fairies and bog king and music and love potions? So sweet! #movies npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Spring rolls for dinner! Friend makes the sauces and the sautéed ground turkey; someone, usually my dad, chops the veggies, and everyone rolls their own rolls. Not pictured: rice noodles, sauces, more shrimp, rice paper dipping stations, etc. #homecooking #food #cooking npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…jx7w npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…t2zk Yay! How did the second one go compared to the first? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…t2zk Nice! What is the circumference of the sock on the 9” needles? npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…t2zk Kitchener stitch or grafting or whatever you want to call it doesn’t have to be so bad once you learn it and get into a rhythm. I definitely prefer it to any kind of stitching ;) npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…t2zk It turned out beautifully npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Dinner in Paris: cold lettuce soup with fried zucchini blossom; octopus with zucchini noodles and sweet potato gnocchi; grand marnier soufflé with salted butter caramel. The soup was lovely, the octopus and its sauces were lovely but the gnocchi was a misstep for me, and the soufflé was lovely. Nice last evening dinner. #food #travel #paris npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…jx7w I am not a vegan. That said I have had this experience a number of times particularly at vegan Chinese restaurants which use soy, gluten and/or seitan to recreate all kinds of meats / fish in vegan form. The menus are a bit disturbing because they say things like “duck” and “pork” so you have to remind yourself they are all vegan and these are just the flavors and textures they are mimicking. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Desssrt: this one was the most fascinating. It looks savory but eats herbaceous and sweet. Description: “LAITUE POMMEE npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I have downloaded the ebook of Ruth Reichl’s “The Paris Novel” ahead of my trip to Paris. I like her writing, and I even enjoyed “Delicious“ although to be honest it’s not that great of a book. Anyone else read Reichl’s not-cooking-not-autobiographical books? #books #Bookstodon #food #FoodWriting npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…z5wd I’m thinking of spinning but not with any competitive spirit. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I’m glad to get more exposure for crafty hobbies. I’m sorry this author is so ageist about it she refers to knitting and scrapbooking as “granny core” and the sight of young people in crafting circles as “jarring.” https://www.wsj.com/lifestyle/relationships/20-somethings-grandma-hobbies-crochet-knitting-795bd985?st=HC3Ews&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…t2zk @nprofile…mhks Which interchangeables do you have? I have Chiaogoo and they definitely have sock / lace needle sizes in interchangeable. For these I sometimes put a longer needle on one side than the other to make them more comfortable to knit with. npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy @nprofile…t2zk I find knitting with needles this size to be uncomfortable so pretty much use whatever else instead of this (including DPNs the whole time, or a variety of other options, but I have a lot of needles so lots of choices) npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy I’m going to Paris for about it a week at the end of June / early July. I’ve been to a lot of the main touristy things in the past. What should I do this time? Especially anything with textiles / spinning / knitting / fiberarts or food (any price range as long as it’s tasty). #travel #food #FiberArts #paris npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Tonight’s dessert: Mila Rose Lychee ice cream (from the frozen dumpling company) https://eatmila.com/products/ice-cream npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Tonight’s dinner: five-spice duck breast with duck fat potatoes and broccolini #food oops I ate some before I took the photo #homecooking npub17n8dk9gw47fey8auem60z2d3yajs02w0aely9grnpljqvwngppdqu56h0c consumableJoy Has anyone watched the movie Jackpot! with Awkwafina, John Cena, and Simu Liu?
