Thank you! The yarn is so beautiful and was a gift, way nicer than what I usually buy

Update: I like the fit a lot better after blocking but now the arms are way too long! I'm going to undo some and bind off again. #knit #knitting #knitsky

I made this cute crop sweater to wear over a tank top but I'm not fully happy with it, the edges curl up. I'm going to block it to see if that helps. If making again I would a) make one size smaller and b) do a ribbed edging or a different cast off to stop rolling

I love how she connects all the information to help me see the bigger picture. I knew some of the pieces and she ties it all together so articulately.

Really enjoying this book, a thorough overview of the many historical and current gender data gaps in medical research, political and economic policies, city design, social infrastructure, and more. Contesting the idea that "man" is the default human. #audiobooks #library #women #booksky

It's a lovely and easy pattern, I found it too short after finishing the swirl portion so I'm knitting it longer before doing the floral edging

I'm late to the audiobook train but I'm on board now, I can actually absorb a book while doing dishes and cooking dinner. As a formerly avid reader who has struggled to get back into it in recent years, this is lovely. Currently listening "this is your mind on plants" by Michael Pollan. #audiobook

The article implies it's a red flag for tenants to know their rights, when I've worked with many landlords who don't know their legal responsibilities and thought landlording would be an easy way to make money (ahem*exploit people's need for safe affordable housing*ahem)

C) landlords only get mad when tenants know their rights because landlords don't understand their legal responsibilities

When tenants do it they're "playing the system" but when landlords do it they're providing a vital service. A) seems like the landlords should have checked references, b) this piece is just about one tenant, I could name dozens of scummy landlords

I never really got into twitter and I hear bluesky's more like that, I have to get used to the new interface (and find more of my friends on here)

I don't know how I feel about this app, I also might check out "Vero" which is more like Instagram. I like the idea of moving away from meta but I also like hanging out on there so here we are
