Tanya, but dead inside. Even during the holidays.

Human bodies are fucky-wucky. We’re all doing the best we can with the info we have.

For fucks sake, get vaccinated. It’s better than the disease/illness.

Hashtag NOT A SCIENTIST but someone I know is having a bad reaction to either the shingles vaccine or another vax he got at the same time, and I wonder how much is due to COVID fucking up his immune system.
He also had a reaction to food that his wife,who had the same vaccines,didn’t react to.

“When you’re in love with a married man, don’t wear mascara.”

Perfection.

Ohhh I loved A Biltmore Christmas!

I don’t think I know Christmas in Connecticut

So, The Stranger used to be…ummm…a pulp rag with a back page of, ah, “escort services” featuring photos of “escorts” without showing their faces.

That was some years ago, but one doesn’t forget one’s roots.

Wait, I think you mean Holiday Hotel?? I don’t remember blackface in White Christmas- Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, and some other people?

It does and I agree!

Mostly I’m looking for “not sad” or “the sad shit already happened and now they’re picking up the pieces”, so this fits! Thank you!

I’ve never seen it, at least not as an adult! It has Shirley MacLaine and Jack Lemmon! I’m starting it now!

What the

Ohhhh that’s so wrong. And yet. 😂

Noooo don’t make me a chore for other people!!!!

What’s the best romantic Christmas movie? New or old.

I have a big quilt that needs about three hours of hand-stitching. I have time.

Too many references to “ball knowledge” (wink), but I completely agree about AI use in restaurant advertising. Do you WANT me to be confused/disappointed when presented with Actual Food?

I’m going to need more pictures of them. For science.

Wow. Is Ian McShane hiding behind Rufus Sewell or what?! That’s amazing. Aging is wild.

Tim Curry could play a burlap sack and I would pay money to watch. Ditto Ian McShane for that matter

You’re not the Right Kind™️ of marginalized I guess.

Me too! It’s pretty funny that I’m not a bracelet person, however my past 2 purchases from the shop have been bracelets. 😂

I’m working on building a quilt from a pattern and my god the pattern writers use a lot of words to make a simple step seem really intimidating.

Speaking of making the rules: this shop is happy to swap out pierced ear (technical word that’s slipping my mind right now) for clip-on or over-the-ear for a tiny fee!

Literally they’re changing my bracelet attachment for 80 cents!!

Just ask before you buy! They communicate promptly!!

10/10!!!!

Too real, @mcsweeneys.net

Grump away!

But I combat this all the time- what is “easy” for a quilter that has 40+ years of experience and an unlimited budget is actually Fucking Hard!!

I don’t even know how to compress all my Trials and errors into a Tutorial. 😂

Anything you may think is easy...probably isn't.

Sure, it's easy for *you*. You have the three T's:

Time, tools, and talent.

Take this into account, and then make a tutorial for other people to follow. :)

This is a reasonable amount of time!

I am begging you to keep making your thing, even if it is messy, even if you don't think it will sell. There are losers typing keywords into water-guzzling shitmachines and thinking they are a gift to the arts. YOUR THING IS ALREADY BETTER THAN ANYTHING THEY WILL MAKE BECAUSE YOU ARE MAKING IT!

It’s computerized!

His name is Harvey though, after Harvey Dent. Because we’re all huge nerds on the inside.

83” square Christmas quilt absolutely dwarfed by an Innova quilting machine.

The work machine is much bigger than my home machine.
