Extended family. I only ever associated with parents and my brother. The rest of them consider us to insane people because we didn't vote for trump.
My covid project was a 5000 pieces puzzle of the capilla sixtina. The first two pieces was God's finger touching its creation... but that was pure luck. Anyway, I couldn't get the borders till the very end.
Side note for the entusiast, a 5000 pieces puzzle means that a ~16 m2 room will be unusable for 6 to 18 months. It's a pretty fulfilling journey
Is there some special type of 5000 piece enthusiast puzzle I haven't heard of? A regular 5000 piece puzzle should take up one large table with a little spillover depending on style and like 50 hours of total work, so easily a month tops. I can't imagine anyone taking 18 months.
Last christmas I was gifted a 5k piece pizzle of Joan of ark leading a charge of soldiers with her boobs out. Its still in the box, for now
You mean Delacroix's liberty leading the people? I envy you, that's a hell of a masterpiece for a puzzle. I glued my capella sistina to an MDF plate and hanged it on the wall and it really stills all the views.
My advice, wait till the right moment comes...it can get terribly frustrating at times and it's a pretty long work. Make sure to have a big plain surface to work, keep rumba under strict control and start with the boob pop'n out, so you know what are you fighting for.
How else do you start puzzle? I prefer to start at multiple points in the middle and then connect them.
The "normal" way of starting a puzzle is to start with the edges. You can find the edge pieces easier due to the flat side, which makes it a good place to start when you have many pieces.
You have to spread all the pieces out when you get them out of the box, so it makes sense to separate out the edge pieces while you're spreading and flipping pieces.
Some puzzles have too similar edge pieces, making it difficult to get their positions right, I would guess this one doesn't.
I usually start with easy to spot places like a cabin in a meadow as the pieces would have a different colorscheme
i have more puzzles than i can count, and many 5k. i've never run into edge collisions that numbers so many it couldnt be resolved with other edge pieces. maybe ive just been lucky, but 'edge piece collisions' arent really an issue
i always do edges first to get an idea of dimensions, sorting all by temperature/texture/pattern (if plausible) next
The thing is if you start with a frame it takes up more space, and it's more difficult to move finished portions unside. Without the constraints of the frame you are free to position your portions where you want before merging.
Okay so in reality you don't complete the entire frame before starting anything else. It may be 90% complete after initial sorting and flipping of pieces, so there are gaps in the border through which you can move finished portions.
Additionally, I would typically keep most of the unsorted pieces outside the frame and then build portions inside the frame.
LOL that's a good one. Too bad I don't have any relatives who I could send that to. Might have a buddy or two tho.
Lojban has attitudinals with which you can explicitly state what the tone of your sentence is: https://lojban.org/publications/cll/cll_v1.1_xhtml-chapter-chunks/chapter-attitudinals.html
If you can't find some sort of humour in this type of scripted thing, what's the fucking point of life?
If this meme is meant to divide anyone it is the following groups being separated:
1)people who can't handle differing opinions
2)people who laugh at group 1
I see 0 problems with this type of behavioral segregation.
I'm more worried about it being a shill post. Links to where to buy the thing have already posted.
Looks pretty real to me.

I don't know. I did a reverse image search and didn't come up with it except for the meme. It would be a lot of work to find a partial of Biden s face like that
