So given yesterday:

He's going to step up attempts to "impress" people w/golden wall coverings.

He's going to resort to even more extreme actions, out of desperation.

He--& his--will lie even more than they normally do.

He's going to try even more desperately to grift.

Just...be aware.

Adult knitted mittens in blue variegated yarn.

This week for #showmeyourknits is knitting horror stories specifically lost knits. My first pair of knit mittens is missing and I’m not sure how they were lost. They were in the car and they may have left on the roof while pumping gas. Here is the replacement pair. #knitsky

My NY Republican Congressman is responsible for this. He does not work for his constituents.

Trump had a tantrum tonight over ABC bringing Jimmy Kimmel back, even threatening to sue the network.

So now Trump is qualified to give medical advice! Didn’t he do enough damage during the pandemic.

Just making stuff up again. Trump and RFK are dangerous to the health of Americans. The man can’t even pronounce β€œacetaminophen”.

Yes those are skulls. @ambahobrien.bsky.social has a series of Halloween themed knitting patterns which have skulls. I will try to add alt text in the future.
