Just arrived in Traverse City for a few days of leaf peeping and gazing out at the waters of Lake Michigan. My heart needs this. #natureismytherapy #resist Stay strong, America!

Oh no, not now. 😢 We need Dolly in this world for a while longer! We just lost Jane Goodall...it's too much to lose good people when the evil ones are still here.

Well, we won't have to see his face and listen to his voice anymore, so that's something. And we'll keep working on the rest, whatever comes next.

Darn right!

Nice! I see a lot of footies or ankle socks there. I recently realized that the reason I don't knit socks anymore is because I find the leg part tedious, so I may do some of these too.

A fighter jet pin because of the celebration he was going to attend. (At least that's what Google told me.)

Several months ago when I declined to tell my mother some details about my personal life, she angrily told me, "I'm your mother and I deserve to know." Also 64. 🤬

BREAKING: A federal judge blocked the Trump administration's deployment of 200 Oregon National Guard members to Portland over the governor's objections.

This decision reinforces one of our country's core principles: The military has no place policing our communities.

I'll second this. I have knitpicks interchangeable needles too and haven't had to buy a needle for years because I always have what I need in the set. Highly recommend!

In my circle of friends, we talk about how horrified we are. But if you go about your life, shopping for groceries or going to a restaurant or anything else, you would never know anything is even happening in this country. Most people are so oblivious or think it's going to go away on its own. 🤬

Mike Nellis (@mikenellis) This is the best messaging I’ve seen from any Democrats on the shutdown. Kudos to AOC, Bernie, and their teams for putting this out there.

Love your color choices! These just went in my queue on Ravelry. 😍

A skull yarn bowl! 😍🤣

I enjoyed your thoughts on their apology, and thank you for the book recommendation. A good topic for all of us to pay more attention to in our lives.

Oh that's so pretty!

ADP is a large payroll processing company, and as I understand it, their data is used to estimate employment and unemployment numbers.

She will be remembered forever -- for her contributions to science as well as for being one of the kindest humans to ever live. 💔

🤣🤣🤣

Am I the only one getting satisfaction just from the thought of typing these words? Loving this thread.

Ezra, since this keeps happening, why not change your user name to something like "Ezra Levin NOT Ezra K"? It must be so frustrating!

Oct 7 and 8 - time to support your local indie bookstore again...and not those other jerks. 💪📖📚

I see what you did there. 😉 And I'll be making a purchase at my indie bookstore then, for sure.

Oh, so I can have FOUR going at once-- 😱🤪

We stand with Portland! 🧶💪🇺🇸

It's funny you ask this question today. I'm just a few inches into a new scarf and was thinking about doing a second one at the same time, alternating by working a couple rows on each one. 🤪

All of the above, varies by day. The beverage is secondary to the pleasure of knitting. 💚🧶

I'm not afraid, I'm furious. 💪🇺🇸

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

I always enjoy moths and caterpillars with green coloring...so pretty!
