While Tr**p wastes millions on a military parade in DC, we're mobilizing everywhere else to show that organized people power is stronger than his authoritarian aspirations. app.sosha.ai/s/JKaNApLs

Love that idea! I'm going to try doing this next year to motivate myself to change out my projects more often - I tend to stick with the same one or two and get bored 😴

Someday you want to hide from the world in a blanket fort and color, others you kinda want to grab a big bucket of popcorn and tune in. Not sure which it'll be today.

#biscornu stitching is complete on this day of the equinox! Now all I need to do is stitch it together 😬 and hope it comes out well enough to gift at the retreat next weekend. Stay tuned!

Baby's first #biscornu! Work in progress. This will be a gift exchange for a #crossstitch retreat at the end of the month. Hoping to manage to put it into something actually giftable despite not being able to sew ;)

I have some good tutorials I'm hoping will help!

North Carolina GOP town hall gets rowdy as attendees hurl scathing questions on Trump For about an hour and half, U.S. Rep. Chuck Edwards endured a constant barrage of jeers, expletives and searing questions on Trump administration policies.

"...as Edwards touted the work he said the Trump administration has been doing for the region's recovery β€” which could include the president's proposal to dissolve [FEMA] β€” attendees shouted him down and demanded he address questions immediately."
