I left little packets with mitts for my 3 bus pals on their buses yesterday so they'll be there when they get in this morning. 🤭 Giving people stuff I made for them makes me a bit giddy. (I forget to take a pic of the last pair :(

I cancelled my sub to WaPo awhile back, and I sub to a couple of independent journalists, but I miss a good source of national/international news. Any recs for other big newspapers I can sub to that are good? Something in Philly, or Chicago, or wev? They've got to have a solid digital presence.

From when you punched that nazi?

It continues to rain harder and harder at this high school marching band competition. These kids are such troopers. And the poor color guard kids in their leotards 😭

I'm once again at a high school marching band competition. It's pouring rain and the bands are killing it! This is my youngest's last marching band performance probably ever 🥲

Following Ada's lead, I'd like to do the same.

Reply to me w/ a receipt of a donation to a food bank of your choice, and I'll also match your donations, up to $500. 🍎🍌🥬🍞🥩❤️

Ding ding ding!

These are amazing and sooo beautiful! I show love by giving people stuff I knit for them. You are well loved 💗

I could just stop doing interviews and send this

Thoughts from yesterday's campus tours: college costs too much. Jfc

Those rule!

"gammon-faced flag-shaggers" is so accurately brutal and immediately joining my lexicon

Checks and balances, god damnit!!

Going on a couple of campus tours with my youngest today 🥲

Doooo iiiiiiit!

I have a 6th gen nano and it's clutch

Apple Review #22: Mutsu Expectations are poisonous. I believe that. I think our experiences can be colored by our expectations that precede that experience. I don’t think we can help it, necessarily — a lot of…

Hello, the daily apple review WHICH YOU SURELY CRAVE THE WAY ONE CRAVES THE LOVE OF A CHERISHED FRIEND OR A LONG LOST PARENT is now up a the blog. Today: the nuclear Yoda orb known as MUTSU.

all of these people would do well to learn something about “cheap” and “costly” grace. no one is saying that platner is irredeemable, but that some things are a bridge too far for someone seeking a public trust. if he feels truly contrite, he can work on himself and his community and try again.

I don't think a protest can serve as a heat sink when things are this bad. Nobody went home and reset. People are angrier than they've ever been, and now they've seen with their own eyes that there are millions more who feel the same.

A knitted mitt in progress. The fabric has a twisted rib serpentine pattern on the back of the hand. The yarn is a blue wool with little funfetti colorful nubbins throughout.

Remember that one time Obama wore a brown suit?

I have a strict No Potty Talk policy on my school bus. Plenty of other jokes in the world. Even the kinders get it.

My biggest unscientific thesis is that menopausal women can either use their angry "I don't give a shit" powers for good (protecting democracy in a penis costume) or bad (Karen-call the police on everybody).
You need to decide which one you will be.
