But those flats are so pretty!

Right, time for a dinosaur sweater update. All the pieces are knitted and should be ready to sew together.

This morning, I messaged both of my US Senators to tell them to hold out for healthcare, even if they shut the government down. You can find your Senator's contact information here: www.senate.gov/senators/sen...

Absolutely magnificent. They came back after intermission, to thunderous applause and a standing ovation.

They got to the theme for Battlefield 2142, which which features a middle eastern drummer. A soloist, a middle eastern drummer walked out to a lukewarm reaction. The soloist took that reaction as a personal challenge, and proceeded to blow the doors off the theater.

In 2006, my n9w husband and I went to a symphony performance of video game music. It was the kickoff of a national tour, so a lot of the composers were present the concert overall was a great experience, but the audience was restless and playing Gameboy with the music.

Another player is the tech employee who rolls the die when they pass go. Even numbers, they get paid $300. Odds they get laid off and get nothing.

Players draw lots at the beginning of the game, one of them will get 2-4 properties and $50,000 from their parents at the start. Another player is in the gig economy, and gets paid up to $5 per turn from each other player and at the paying players discretion instead of $200 for passing go.

The erosion of basic principles like due process and the expanding use of our military on domestic soil puts the liberties of all Americans at risk, and should concern democrats and republicans alike.

I hard stopped scrolling to show my husband.

The picture above is a sweater front with a teal dinosaur on a black and hot pink background.

I tried intarsia for the first time recently

I want more bone dog, and I'm a cat person.

Those are gorgeous!

Look at how The Colbert show is ending. Look at the lies the media has already been telling us for the last year.

As conditions deteriorate here, and there are shortages of food and other goods, as the federal government starts cracking down on protests, the major media outlets and much of the internet will refuse to acknowledge any of it, or obfuscate what's really happening.

After pursing a "5 year plan" for soviet agriculture that failed and resulted in millions of people dying, the government said that it was stopping the program because they were "dizzy with success"

It's reminding me of, "All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again." In the Soviet Union under Stalin, the government didn't tell the people that WW2 was over until 1948.

Have you tried thredup? It's thrifting, but online with a searchable database, so you can find specific sizes and makers. I have gotten some great deals on Eileen Fisher clothes, which are all responsibly made in mostly natural fibers.

Back of knitting where you can see the black yarn carried across the back.

Black knitting with teal accents with the small balls of yarn held out because I'm not going to continue carrying colors across the back. There are some grey 3d printed x shaped yarn bobbins in two sizes.

People, it's happening! This is my first time doing intarsia and I'm learning a lot. I'm switching to bobbins from carrying the yarn across. I'm not at all certain that I bought enough yarn.

🧶 the front cover of Patons 607 knitting pattern book young at heart. A woman with short hair wears a baggy sweater with a stegasaurus on the front and right sleeve with standing spines. The dinosaur is wearing glasses.

I had to do it. Yarn on order. 🧶

Have you read Legends and Lattes, a novel about an orc fighter to settle down and live her dream of opening a coffee shop?

I listened to the soundtrack on repeat on cassette.
