Me, sitting with my cat

My cat, seeing my partners cat from across the room thinking about jumping the baby gate: *violent grumble, but doesn't move*

My partners cat: you know what, that's fair. I'll be over here where you can't see me

😹

A hand made spring steel letter opener with a loop handle and a blue temper fading to silver steel in the middle.

The Alex Jones voice screaming in my head: They're putting chemicals in the fire that's making the frickin metal gay 😂

There could be a competitive breathing tournament, and transphobes would still think we have the advantage over cis folks. I wish we actually had the super powers people think we have.

I've recently been able to set up my forge again, and I've had a busy few days of making tools 😁

Everything on the anvil has been made from a coil spring off a Jeep Wrangler.
I have so much spring steel left. What should I try to make next?

If we have met, and I see you in public and I don't really interact much, I probably forgot your name and I'm too embarrassed that I don't remember you. Don't take it personally. I'm the problem.

A slow cooked beef brisket

The same brisket, now shredded

I slow cooked a beef brisket in garlic and onion infused blueberry wine for 12 hours. After it fell apart I added starch to the juice to make a gravy to put on before topping it with sharp cheddar cheese and served with a side of steak fries

When you get to the end of the movie thinking the hero didn't make it.

It worked! I will not be responsible with this new knowledge

Fireplace s'mores in T-minus ... Some amount of time... Not sure really 🤷🏼‍♀️

Selfie with a tortie cat

Life event: final selfie in Delaware with Zeniba DeFloof. Soon to be Maryland bound. She hasn't met her brother yet. It could be a long night.

I had this exact thought last week, meme and all. I'm a little mad at myself for selling my .40 a few years ago.

Special moments for cat owners: when they're laying on their back and they do a big stretch and their little feeties shake.

I was gonna make the same one, so I'm glad I scrolled a bit first.

There should be something like annulments for marriages, but for presidents and their cabinets. Like, sorry but this isn't working out. Clearly we made some bad decisions and we're just gonna pretend none of this happened and replace you.

I started trying to video my next sewing project, but it probably will look like total garbage. I didn't have a good tripod, I was using my phone as the camera, I've got bad lighting in the living room and I didn't remember to turn the camera on a few times 😂😅🙃

Maybe we should. I've been trying to work towards moving back to Salisbury. It'd be a lot easier if I was only 20 minutes away instead of an hour.

I've always wanted to run a YouTube channel for my crafts... It's hard being the the hostwritervideographereditorproducer. I always felt I needed a friend to work with.

If you’re a straight, cis person who has ever posted some version of a rainbow with “you’re safe with me” or similar, it’s time to back up the words with action— contact your reps and ask them what they’re going to do to protect trans people from this administration, particularly trans kids.

I had a nightmare come true today, and I got my finger in the way of my sewing machines needle. I was hand turning the wheel trying to get my stitch started and I didn't want the thread to pull out and I was too far forward. I had to bend the needle to get my finger out of the machine. 🙃

An end display at a Michael's craft store with extra large letters for sale. Someone arranged the bottom shelf to spell out penis

Did y'all know Michael's sells giant letters?

I hope you enjoy your class 🙂 I just recently started sewing myself and have been having fun with it. I'll look forward to seeing your projects

If you're doing it to learn to sew, I don't see what the problem is 🤷🏼‍♀️
It's not like you're obligated to sit next to her and be in all the conversations, right? Go to learn, focus on your work, and be open to friendly interactions

I got my first machine for Christmas and I'm just learning too. I've watched a lot of Cornelius Quiring on YouTube. His videos have been very helpful.

A hand sewn brown and white bodice with lacing

A selfie with said hand sewn brown and white bodice with lacing

The first rough draft that was actually wearable. The first attempt was overall too small.

*level up*
Bodice rough draft 3.0
It's a little short after the hems, and it needs more room for adjustments, but it's way more polished than the first attempts, as you can probably tell.

A fluffy cat playing with a homemade cat toy

I leveled up my cat toy making skills from ball to vaguely mouse shaped. Zeniba DeFloof approved.

I've started trying to make my own cat toys since she never plays with the ones I buy her. They're stuffed with catnip 😺

A 4 panel meme. Panel 1: a photo of Bishop Mariann Edgar Budder at the pulpit. Panel 2: An angel, Aziraphale, and a demon, Crowley. Crowley asks, "What was it she said that got everyone so upset?" Panel 3: Aziraphale replies, "'Be kind to each other.'" Panel 4: Crowley says "Oh, yeah. That'll do it."

Stole this from a friend.
