People has named Jonathan Bailey the Sexiest Man Alive of 2025.

My wedding is in 8.5 days, and I still have at least 6 hours of knitting left on the (beaded) border of my shawl.

Then I have to figure out how I’m going to block the sucker.

At least tomorrow is my last day of working for the next two weeks. 😅

Well that’s fuckin rude

How To Pick Up Dates

This is because I keep seeing some very good dating advice presented in a snarky way, and I wanted to break it down into something useful for people who want more dates and romance int heir lives but don't know what to do, and that's:

1. Be Attractive
2. Don't Be Unattractive

We lost Marshall years before he passed and it was one of the most difficult things I’ve ever experienced. His wife had just started speaking to a divorce lawyer, when an employee at the psychiatric facility he was in stumbled across his file.

It’s heartbreaking seeing Bruce Willis’s family go through what we went through with my big brother Marshall. Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD)/Picks Disease is so, so cruel. I grieved the loss for years before he actually slipped away for good.

Oh nice, I usually use 20 with a smaller bead, but I just got a bunch of 8/0 so I might have to try that combo.

Forgot to mention the fact that I was also teaching them how to crochet. 🧶

hear me out:

this man is perfect for the new trend in on-location, made-for-streaming movies starring beloved actors in their 50s. the Julia Roberts/George Clooney divorcees in Bali one, the Rob Lowe/Kristin Davis elephant sanctuary one, the Brooke Shields/Cary Elwes Scottish Christmas one, etc

Telling kids who are close to the age I was when I learned how to crochet that I’ve been crocheting for (nearly) 30 years is WILD. 🧶

The Christian Nationalism of Michael Farris Michael Farris’s repeated dismissal of Christian Nationalism is gaslighting.

Michael Farris is the most powerful figure in the Religious Right that you’ve never heard of—unless you were a homeschooler.

I want full gender liberation for everyone.

I want a world in which everyone is 100% free to explore and figure out who they are and what their relationship to gender is.
