A side by side of a primarily cream colored yarn with blue, ochre, shades of green, and tinges of mulberry worked up into the start of a scarf. The left picture is from last week, the right picture is the progress made until today.

Making progress! The left was last week and the right is where it's at today. Mildly obsessed with how the colors are looking together 🧶

What are you working on? Drop your current projects in the comments - it doesn't have to be fiber arts. I just love seeing people's creativity!

They're not and never will be conscious.

Hi! I hand dye natural fiber yarns ( @kindhandsdesignco.bsky.social ) and I would love to work out something for your grandma! A huge part of why I started is to make crafting accessible to everyone. Feel free to DM me there and we can get something in the works 🙂🧶

FWIW, I won't be fixing the mistake, but I would like to figure out how I made it in order to not do it again 🙂

Up close of a garter stitches on The Simple Thing pattern showing two rows almost on top of each other but converging into one row half way across.

Hi! Pretty new knitter here with a quandary 🙋🏻‍♀️

I have no idea how I got two rows on top of each other that meet and finish out in a single row. You can't tell this happened on the backside. The only thing I can think is I accidentally repeated the stitches before finishing the row?

Any thoughts?

Or, and hear me out, you could actually listen to the people and abolish ICE and CBP. Once that's done, create an organization that is ethical and not rooted in slavery, patriarchy, and fascism. You know, actually helpful to the people trying to live in this country - legal aid, job help, childcare.

I never thought dismantling the federal government would be so stupid

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

"You look happier"
"Thanks. I just ate."

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.

‘I can’t live without AI!’

Were you born three years ago? Is this your first time experiencing the wonder of human thought and free will?

‘Can’t live without AI’

How embarrassing.

“If all the names in the Epstein files are released then our entire system will collapse.”

Works for me.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

As expected.

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

It’s not too late for states and Congress to stop Trump from subverting the midterms With only nine months before the midterm elections, Trump is plotting to prevent Democrats from taking control of Congress.

My Latest: Contrary to many doomsayers, it is not too late to protect the midterm elections. There are steps Democrats can take now — at both the state and federal levels — to safeguard our elections. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/its-...

This whole thread was really, really ✨fantastic✨

The *only* response to this is all the other governors drop out.

For those who are sending letters to members of congress, I encourage you to add in your two cents if you are using a template.

For instance, this morning alone, I had the privilege of asking 5 uninspiring and unintelligent men to not be feckless shitgibbons for once in their lives and it was 🤌🏻🫦

Bring back firing squads for anyone involved.

Don’t care who.

New York Times headline: Libertarians: We Told You So With an image of a big black boot stomping a snake

this is a subject that's near and dear to my heart

1. no you didn't, you retconning fucks

2. your decades of anti-governance "free market" "government never functions" propaganda paved the way for the complete authoritarian decimation of labor, consumer, environmental protections

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Ha ha ha
