Trying to get in the habit of posting here.

Can’t wait to see it!

Started and finished a unicorn today. ✨🦄

Oh I love your King Winter! What a beautiful set up.

Love the colors and variagation. What are these cute little pockets!

Aw congratulations! The sweetest announcement. 😊🐣

The decision to pause federal grants + loans is intentionally chaotic + designed for maximum harm, like so many of Donald Trump + GOP’s recent actions. From hurting food banks to closing daycares, Republicans are targeting everyday people and putting them at risk. Let’s break down what’s at stake. 🧵

Trump’s Project 2025 ghostwriters Entry in Molly White's microblog

Trump has denied or downplayed links to Project 2025. These documents show that implementation is well underway, with designated personnel quietly drafting policies that are being publicly attributed to heads of federal agencies.

James Sherk authored the joint Office of Management and Budget and OPM memo (archive) on return to office implementation plans. The guidance in the memo echoes a November 20, 2024 op-ed in the Wall Street Journal by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy outlining their “Doge Plan”, where they wrote: “Requiring federal employees to come to the office five days a week would result in a wave of voluntary terminations that we welcome”.5 The memo has earned criticism from the American Federation of Government Employees, the largest federal employee union, which expressed that the directive would “undermine” the government’s effectiveness by limiting their ability to attract talented employeees and maintain continuity of operations in emergencies.6 Sherk also authored the joint OMB and OPM memo (archive) providing guidance on the federal civilian hiring freeze — another effort towards the goal of slashing the size of the federal workforce.

James Sherk authored the joint OMB/OPM memo on return to office implementation plans and the joint memo authorizing the federal civilian hiring freeze.

Noah Peters is the author of the OPM Acting Director Charles Ezell’s January 27 memo (archive) providing guidance on the “Restoring Accountability To Policy-Influencing Positions Within the Federal Workforce” executive order, which is being described as the “Schedule F” order because it effectively reinstates that policy under a new name (“Schedule Policy/Career”). Peters also authored the January 20 memo (archive) from Ezell, which exploits loopholes to bypass limits on political appointments.1 Both of these memos are clear steps towards achieving a primary goal of Project 2025: to expand President Trump’s power, and to replace career civil servants with Trump loyalists.

Noah Peters is the true author of the OPM’s January 27 memo providing guidance on the Schedule F executive order. Peters also authored the memo exploiting loopholes to bypass limits on political appointments.

The people now in charge of the Office of Personnel Management apparently don’t know how to scrub PDF metadata, and have exposed the original authors of the guidance they’re publishing. Two, Noah Peters and James Sherk, have links to the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.

They are living, thinking, feeling beings

And they deserve our respect, even if we haven't earned theirs.

A peek at what I'm about to paint! One of 7 paintings I will attempt to finish before February. 😲

👋 hi, Fran!

Day 9! 😱 Hope you all feel better soon.

A completed cross stitch piece in a wooden embroidery hoop. It says FIX YOUR HEART OR DIE and is framed by a vintage pattern of yellow, purple, and red flowers on green vines

A hearty “eat shit” to transphobes #crossstitch

Oof, feel better soon! ❤️‍🩹

An in-progress picture of a unicorn I am sewing. It has a teal wool felt body with a mane made up of various textures and shades of pink yarn and wool roving.

Something feels off about the colors in the mane. I might redo it and try shades of purple instead. What do you think?

It feels so refreshing to not have seen any ads on Bluesky yet.

Partial view of unicorn-shaped sewing pattern pieces cut from bubbly teal wool felt, resting on a white WoolBuddy felting mat. The unicorn’s tush has some tiny fuschia/pink embroidered hearts, reminiscent of My Little Ponies. Some small gold scissors are visible in part.

If anyone needs me, I’ll be over here sewing a unicorn and reading more EOs. 😡
