Black cat Davey and orange cat Lexie are in my lap with my laptop pushed to the side

Lap full of cats

Orange cat Lexie is crouched on my laptop on my lap

Black cat Davey is laying on my laptop on the couch

Today in cats on laptops

Yall the nurse at my dr’s office was wearing these this week!!!! I wouldn’t have recognized them, she straight up told me. That has to be a major hipaa concern. (She said she uses them for bible study chat rooms???)

This is maybe the wildest thing I’ll ever say on god’s own internet, but all of a sudden my boobs are floppy??? Is this aging? Has gravity come for me???

I got one, it’s so little and cute! I put it on my keychain

One time in college I scandalized some Mormon missionaries and felt all bad about it, but I’m not the one who made a devil star symbol thing out of Gideon bibles on the wall, I was just the girl lounging on the bed underneath it

Two Mormon missionaries just knocked on my door!! I mean, it’s dark out, don’t knock on doors. I did the ol “it’s cool, I’m Jewish, see this mezuzah on my door here” and they left

A ball of red and orange braided looking yarn with a crochet hook

Making crochet chains with many strands of yarn is VERY FUN

i turned it off bc it annoyed me so much but some stuff still doesn't look right

awesome!!!

God I love Defector (speaking of which, LL pals, I playtested the Deadspin/Defector one-day that's today, check it out!)

Uncool!!!!

I am alternating between finishing my current knitted scarf thing and crocheting a bunch of yarn together to make new yarn for my next thing and both are vwry exciting!!!!!!! What hat are you making? (And I always restart everything at least once lol)

Honestly mad that I have to SLEEP and WORK instead of doing yarn crafts

Super uncool!!!!

So uncool!!!! Substack!!!!

Orange cat Lexie is laying on my knitting project

Black cat DAVEY is sitting next to me and has his paw on a ball of red yarn

Today in cats assisting with crafts

Oh my GOD, now candidates running for office in states I don’t even live in are adding me to their SUBSTACKS! Brian Bengs of South Dakota, you suck.

Crochet pals: is there a crochet hook equivalent of a needle stopper to make sure my yarn doesn’t slip off the hook when I put it down?

A crochet hook and five strands of yarn in reds

I am playing with yarn!!!!

ok my crochet hook arrived!!!! should i

a) start playing with yarn after work!!!

b) keep knitting on my current thing till it's finished first and play with yarn at a future date

Check out my list on Amazon

Do you want to help Minneapolis out in a different way? Help set up some new street medics so that they can make sure community members are cared for at protests.

I have a baggu carryon FULL of yarn, it’s gonna put a small dent in my stash at least

My giant crochet hook should arrive tomorrow and it’s gonna take all of my meager willpower to finish my current knitting project and not start messing with the next one (which involves crocheting a chain of 4-5strands of yarn into a giant ombré rainbow and then knitting that into a blanket)

JB used to lay against me in bed and serve as an armrest while I read my kindle and simultaneously cuddled him, it ruled

A woman with a child just knocked on my door so I opened it and she’s running for school board? I get that canvassing probably helps but it’s fuxking freezing outside, take your kid home (I generally follow the people’s alliance picks for school board since I don’t have kids, she wasn’t endorsed)

I texted him to warn him lol

Oh lord my dad set up an Apple family thing so he could share his news subscription with me (lots of good mags in there) and I was messing with the options and set him as my legacy contact and it sent an email that was like “ if Alicia DIES you can access her iCloud stuff” lol
