It is currently 8:36 AM in the UK. I am spending the day in a meeting and taking an 8 PM flight home. Somehow I land in Boston at 10:30 PM for a total of 48.5 hours wheels up to wheels down. For now in a Wildfang suit, thrifted French cuff shirt and cufflinks, found scarf, determination.

Another friend said “The scarf is really pulling this together as “maybe THIS carnie is trustworthy”” and I’m here for it 🎪

A nonbinary person stands before a full length hotel mirror wearing a navy and white striped schoolboy blazer, a light blue French cuff dress shirt, a red, navy, and cream polka dot neckerchief, navy speckled trousers, and navy and light blue dress shoes.

We know it’s about the details. A light blue and white pansy pin with a pearl center on a navy and white pinstripe blazer.

We know it’s about the details. A silk pocket square printed like a piece of college ruled notebook paper in the pocket of a navy and white striped schoolboy blazer.

I’m on a 2 day jaunt to the UK to disrupt the wealth management industry, so I decided to lean in to the Thrifted Dandy esthetic. Schoolboy blazer and French cuff dress shirt procured on Poshmark, gifted thrifted scarf and pocket square, estate sale pansy lapel pin. #ButchDandy #OOTD #TDOV

A grey wool hat featuring 2 repeating rows of the word RESIST in pink hangs below a circular knitting needle, against a background of black pajamas featuring green leaves and brown leopards.

A 47 year old human smiles into the camera in a blue blazer, white dress shirt with blue and purple stripes, a blue and purple patterned silk scarf tied in a full Windsor knot, and sunglasses, with the US Capitol dome in the background over their right shoulder.

A photo of a newspaper clipping from 1998 of the same person at 20 as part of a delegation of people in front of the Capitol dome with the text “Baby’s first hill visit, April 1998” over their head.

Same person stands with 3 other members of the Local Return Community Investment Cooperative team in front of a balloon arch with the words “Just Economy Conference” in the background.

Made good use of my time at the @justeconomy.bsky.social #JustEconomy2025 conference by working on my #ResistHat, doing a 27 year glow-up visit to Capitol Hill w @magaziner.house.gov, and getting to know my @localreturn.bsky.social compatriots better. Bringing home so much info! #KnitSky 🧶

If you’re not familiar with the term “network state” now is a great time to familiarize yourself.

You probably don’t know that #Welding is my #QueerRoot. That scene in #Flashdance where Jennifer Beals takes off her helmet & shakes out all that hair was everything to this Pittsburgh kid. So I really enjoyed the #SFOAirport exhibit on #RosieTheRiveter. Joan of Arc pageant? Yes please!

Nicely done! What do you like more about a hand sewn button hole?

A selfie of a person with a wrinkled forehead, black hoodie, and keffiyeh eats a large waffle cone of dark chocolate and smoked sea salt ice cream (there’s a hidden scoop of peanut butter curry below) in front of water with the Bay Bridge in the background.

I lost a dear friend in January, days before she died we had made a plan for ice cream today while I was in her area. In her honor I had a double scoop in a waffle cone in view of the Bay Bridge. I think she would approve. I love you and miss you Court.

A person stands in a hotel bathroom wearing a hip length, wide lapel grey suit in a modern 1940s style; a pink, purple, and white shirt with French cuffs peeking from the suit sleeves; a pink and yellow silk scarf folded on the bias and tied in a half Windsor knot inside the open shirt collar; a silk pocket square printed like a piece of college ruled paper; and a lapel pin depicting David Bowie and Prince riding a pink unicorn with a purple mane and tail.

Closeup of the college ruled paper print pocket square; David Bowie with bright red hair and Ziggy Stardust face makeup in front of Prince in a green assless suit on a pink unicorn with a curly purple mane and tail; and a pink silk scarf tied in a half Windsor knot, showing the tail of a tiger.

I used to be a daily #SuitButch but now that it’s an occasional thing it’s a lot more fun. (H/t to @dieworkwear.bsky.social 4 style tips!) Handmade K-Zao suit, thrifted Thomas Pink shirt, Trafalgar naiad braces, and pink pocket square, gifted blue silk scarf, gifted flower pin. #OOTD #QueerStyle

It’s #WomensHistoryMonth!

We asked our Director of Strategic Partnerships, @jennsteinfeld.bsky.social, “How does #wealth inequality affect you as a woman?”

Tell us about your experiences with #finances and wealth #inequality, as a #woman, in the comments below ⬇️

My travel schedule this year doesn’t leave room for traditional #Purim fun and #Antizionist stuff can be hard to find on the road so I’m drinking #Tequila in the Charlotte airport in a #Hamantaschen hat watching fire trucks flood the tarmac. I’m sure #EverythingIsFine. I think Esther would approve.

It’s a great time to call your Senators and tell them you expect them to vote NO for cloture and NO on the continuing resolution, basically a short term budget bill that locks in some bad stuff.

That pink is 🧑‍🍳 💋. I never knit my socks together, I always get confused when it gets to turning the heel and/or wind up knitting them together. But it makes so much sense for making sure they are the same!

The triangle is just highlighting how a gusset usually works - in this case you m1p between the halves of the cable leading to a purl triangle between knit ribs that makes it pop!

Heel turning is never totally brainless so you do need to pay some attention there. But if you know how to cable this is real easy, 2x2 crossed the same direction every 6 rows (or how you choose to adjust. Maybe not brainless if it’s your first sock project but clearly written and easy to follow.

A bright golden sun emerges above the roof of a white house with the branches of a bare tree in the foreground.

Good morning! Time change side effect is I’m up for the sun rising over my neighbor’s house again. These times are making me appreciate #SmallJoys again. What’s getting you through?

Smart idea! I had saved posts of knitting stuff in another site but that’s a great way to handle it here.

Thank you! I’m really pleased.

A closeup of two feet in hand knit socks in a variegated brown, green, purple, and turquoise with a cable up the inner leg that splits at the gusset, crossed against a white tiled floor with small black squares at the intersection of the white tiles.

Freaking FINALLY got these #BrainlessSocks off my needles and onto my feet. It’s my favorite travel pattern because it’s, well, brainless, but sometimes that means a lil #knitting project takes way longer than necessary. But don’t worry I have another pair on needles! What are you making? #KnitSky

A photo shows a pink skinned human hand holding a small brown bat with its wings extended. The text reads “You may fascinate a *Jenn* by giving *them* a little palm sized bat.” Asterisks indicate where a newly typed word was pasted over the original text. If there is a better way for me to describe this please let me know, I’m trying to get better at alt text descriptions!

Just checked my watch and it’s #CuteBatOclock. Having a friend rewrite this meme for me to be #nonbinary inclusive yet specific to my interests made me feel really loved. How are you loving up on the #Queer, #Trans, and #Enby folks in your life? And/or how are you celebrating #Bats?

I’m trying not to make this a cesspool of horrors but this is really scary. Homeland Security detaining and executing an extraordinary rendition order for someone with a legal green card for engaging in peaceful protest is really really bad. There should be nonpartisan outrage and action!

A person stands in a teal alcove wearing a red, orange, and yellow argyle sweater with a pyramid of black cat silhouettes with large orange beaded eyes, black hoop earrings, glasses, and a pale orange hat that says “hamantaschen” (a cookie for the Jewish holiday of Purim) in white script. They have a faint smile and a scratch on their upper lip from their baby nibbling and on their chin from their 4 year old nibbling. Too much roughhousing!

When you don’t feel like getting going, make your #OOTD a bright sweater and take a selfie in your friend’s teal bathroom. Pretty Snake argyle cat sweater; Pushcart Judaica hamantaschen hat; Urban Body Jewelry earrings; scratches by my nibblings. #QueerStyle #BuyLocal #ShopSmall #FitCheck

I just bought stuff for a “resist” stranded hat but I like this one better.

A short haired person stands in front of a full length mirror wearing red, black, and orange handknit socks; bright red painters pants printed with black vampire mouths, bloodshot eyeballs with bat wings, and the grim reaper; a white flannel shirt printed with black outlined hands making shadow puppet animals and the black shadows; a black sweatshirt with a line drawing of an upright sitting cat with script reading “cats against catcalls; a black and white keffiyeh, and large black hoop earrings. Their head is cocked to the side and they are holding their phone in their right hand taking the picture.

Some days are an embarrassment of riches and today’s #OOTD reflects that. @nooworks.bsky.social painters pants in the most incredible print, #MeMade #FairfieldShirt in Joann flannel (RIP), Cats Against Catcalls crew neck, keffiyeh, #MeMade socks. Off for some somatic work for facing fear! 🧶🧵🪡

A person stands in front of a full length mirror wearing a dusty purple hat with a fur pompom; a short sleeved jumpsuit and turtleneck printed with flaming dice, padlocks, snakes, spiderwebs, urns with wilting roses, keys and chains on a black background; a hot pink witch finger necklace (a brass cast of the rubber kids toys), armwarmers in a pink and black yarn; pink variegated socks, and a big grin.

Same outfit just closeup from the waist up; the person has their eyes open wide in an expression of excitement with a big smile and their tongue stuck out.

I don’t know why it just occurred to me today that I could wear this gifted @nooworks.bsky.social turtleneck with the matching jumpsuit but I am real excited about it! #MeMade #Handknit armwarmers and socks, Muffy Brandt witch finger necklace, gifted cashmere pompom hat round out #OOTD. #Knitsky 🧶

A person stands in an open bathroom stall with an open stall on either side taking a bathroom selfie. A black and ecru wallpaper with large circles featuring stylized women’s faces including a closeup of an eye with an arched brow; a nose to collar neck wearing a moon phase necklace; eyes with arched brows above two hands sipping from a teacup; and feminine features on a white circle. The person is wearing a boldly colored sweatshirt printed with parrots, carnivorous plants, and skulls; black and white checked sweatpants; and a black and white keffiyeh around their neck.

It was a heck of a week but I took a little time out for a program called Process as Power and crafting in community and caught this snap in the museum bathroom. Pretty Snake Bone Church sweatshirt; Savage x Fenty sweatpants; keffiyeh; KN-95; mutual support; gratitude. #fitcheck #ootd
