Have you ever been sitting in your driveway after a long day just desperately wanting to be home but you're stuck because transitions are hard and the world is a dumpster fire and you just *can't*? No? Just me? Shit.

@bluegal.bsky.social organized an impromptu knitalong and the pattern is by Lanja Khon-Enghiem

After having done a transatlantic cruise I can absolutely confirm that this is life's greatest piece of advice.

Whoever thought getting your kids a backyard trampoline was a good idea was extremely extremely wrong. It's so incredibly loud and screamy. This is supposed to be the season of reprieve but there has been no big snow or rain. Please, God of this suburban hellscape send me a little bit of quiet.

I downloaded that pattern last night with the intention to cast on as soon as I can find the correct needle!

The world can't be all bad when there are cinnamon rolls that good in it.

Did yesterday's don't buy stuff have an effect? Anyone seeing any reports or anything?

How are we coping/regulating/surviving bc I don't got this.

Painting has become the place my brain goes briefly quiet

Y'all. Apparently everything I've known is fake. The world is upside down. Nothing matters.

So be kind.

Like I said I said I wanted to run away to a farm but definitely *not like that* fuck.

Today I discovered a new-to-me kind of chips that were delicious. My husband and I are them on the couch while watching P4A. It's a pretty good valentines day 🤷‍♀️

Hey @criticalrole.bsky.social how about trigger warnings and/or tone indicators? D20 does it seamlessly, and you aren't LIVE anymore, so... I can feel my heartbeat in my toes and my edible stash is gone too.. so, trigger warnings or buy me pot. Please. Please.

I would like to offer another option any/all of the corvids. They're smart enough and have a long memory and certainly have a whole lot to say.

Did you know that horse hoofs have GROWTH RINGS?!?? Because I fuckin' didn't.

*scream*

A very cute tan and white icelandic sheepdog lies in a too small blue bed. There are two toys, a stuffy and a rope, in the bottom corner.

He doesn't know that it's VeryBad but he knows I am sad. This means I am tripping over his toys every two seconds. He's a very good baby.

The Lizzie Bennet Diaries did this PERFECTLY

The Boston Globe gets it right. Republicans are COMPLICIT.

Today's void shout: hey #sciencesky can you help me find anyone studying or researching or an expert on Streptococcus?
I would love to know EVERYTHING about strep equi equi and would be extremely grateful for any help.

Love this. The universe needs more pigeon art

Wrapping up #BirdArtWeek2025 with #UrbanBirds 🐦 I had to draw a pair of pigeons for this one. I think they're adorable birds, even though they're often overlooked. They have a fascinating history as well 🪶

Came home today to a note on the door about a current political event and I have notes

1) you didn't put any resources or actionable steps.
2) it really didn't need to be a whole 8 1/2 by 11 piece of paper. Use your resources better.
3) also bold of you to assume I'm not excruciatingly aware.

It's so green 💚

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

I would like to be best friends with this mouse 🧡

Watercolor sketch of Danny Devito in green and purple.

This is from November. I need to find my motivation and joy again because I definitely feel like I'm getting worse again.
Danny Devito is a good subject, though.

I'm usually pretty good at finding the small things that are still good. It's something I take a lot of pride in. This ability is failing me these days.
