"They don't have to go to the effort of striking you down if you're already on your knees." - Évike in The Wolf and the Woodsman.

Do-nothing Dems and cowardly GOP in Congress, that quote is for you.

It's so weird to me when people are like 'but that will cost the government money!' So what? They're the government, they're supposed to be spending money. What, you want them to take your tax dollars and then do nothing with it? Lock it all up in a big government vault and just look at it? Why are you so scared of giving a third grader lunch or a homeless person a house.

Cult scholar: welcome, welcome my children, let me explain.

A screenshot from the Libby library app asking for help fighting the loss of funding due to an executive order. The text is as follows: A header reads: Make Your Voice Heard The text reads: On March 14, an order was issued to dismantle the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), the federal agency which distributes federal funds to libraries, museums, and archives. This ebook and audio platform is supported in part by IMLS grants. Select LEARN MORE to see how you can show up for your library. A large blue square with red writing reads: “show up for your libraries”. A red hyperlink button says “learn more” and links to a state government website with further information on how to help

Here’s your reminder that the fight continues on. As many of you know, libraries are our first defense, ensuring everyone has access to vital resources and information.

When I find a pattern I like, I’m compelled to make samples using various sized hooks & yarns. Purely out of curiosity…🐱
Here, L to R, I used worsted, dk, & fingering weight yarns & on the blocking board, #10 crochet thread. Toadstool Square pattern by Pony McTate. 🧶🧶🧶

Been to war twice working in intelligence… Never once accidentally added a journalist to my illegal cell phone conversations

One of my longer term projects. Working on a pair of easy chairs right now.

The return of Stress Bake Monday. Made Anxiety Tamer Coconut Chocolate Chip Banana Bread. Rescued some long ago forgotten, frozen, overripe bananas. Used a Pinterest recipe for the basic quick bread…Shredded coconut & dark chocolate chips were my add-ins.👨‍🍳

Such a creepy good book!📚❤️

We want to send a message to the world: what has happened today is an absolute disgrace. It is completely un-American.

Finished yesterday.
Stash-buster-hexi-cardi🙂
Used 3 kinds of yarn. Had 2 of the 3 stashed for 3-4 years.😬
My fave makes are a result of “shopping” what I’ve got in my stash, designing a project around it &/or scrap yarn projects.
Much different experience than buying yarn for a specific project.🧶

Working in a stash-buster cardi. I’m much further along than when this pic was snapped, tho. This one’s based on the (viral) granny hexagon cardigan, I’ve added lots of improvisational elements to the basic shape. Using self-striping, sock weight yarn & faux-mohair held together for this step…🧶

Do this. Say this. 👇🏻

Ditto! Watched this over on YouTube. Headed over here to follow your profile & repost this.

Finally!

This is my sample of the "Bromley" shawl. It is definitely colorful, feels wonderfully soft knitted mostly in a hand dyed Bamboo by Theodora's Pearls and last for good measure, a skein of crisp linen was used to accent it. It's popping! 🧶

BREAKING: Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier released from prison after nearly 50 years

Always wanted to learn this style of beaded crochet rope. Watched a couple free YouTube tutorials…Using pony beads & worsted weight yarn, I worked a 4 bead/color repeat. After a substantial amount of frustration, I finally got it!
