Gorgeous!! Thanks for sharing.

Major props to you. I can’t imagine how hard it must be.

Not sure you can get more Marie Antoinette than taking away food stamps right before Thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring you bribes over a badly cooked (Argentinian) steak. @elleisanisland.bsky.social

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Pic is a cross stitch project on white cloth. All that’s on the cloth at this point is words that read “let’s get take out” in a dark bluish color. Just to the right and down from that is a smiling little greyish mushroom with pink little cheeks. There is some green object stitched next to it that sort of looks like a vertical oval.

#WIP Wednesday.
Pattern is called Veggies Kawaii Cross Stitch.

WOW!!!

Oh ok.

Yay!! I can’t wait. Can you dm me when it’s done, if I don’t see your post?

I would stitch it, I just need a pattern.

That’s cool. Hey, I saw your little bio line…I am actually looking for someone to design me a sorta pride-themed x-stick to hang in the youth group room at my UU church. Something trying to convey that this is a safe space, be yourself, that sort of thing. Would you be willing/able to do that?

Very cool pics! Thanks for sharing.

That is gorgeous!

Just what I needed to see! Thank you so much for sharing.

The corn or the broccoli. I love the texture of all those knots! Kudos to you for making all those knots. I hate doing french knots in my cross stitch projects.

I love that cloth! I can’t tell-is that aida or evenweave linen?

Thanks for sharing! I took screenshots and I want to use them as phone wallpapers. Hope that’s cool.

But was there a rift in the space-time continuum? (Husband and I just finished watching TNG for about the third time.)

I never doubted her for a minute.

Remember when fall premiers were a big deal with TV shows? I wonder if that was the season premiere that year. Too lazy to Google it. Or ask AI.

This is very cool. Thanks for sharing.

Gorgeous! I may borrow this for my phone wallpaper.

RANT #4 FUCK THIS FUCKING WORTHLESS PIECE OF ORANGE EXCREMENT. THIS VILE, SOULLESS EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING. I HATE HIM. I HATE HIM FROM THE DEPTHS OF MY SOUL. I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND HOW SOMEONE SO FUNDAMENTALLY UNWORTHY, SO BLATANTLY IGNORANT, SO UTTERLY INCOMPETENT, SO MONUMENTALLY STUPID, COULD RISE TO SUCH A POSITION OF POWER. I’LL NEVER UNDERSTAND HOW WHEN SOME PEOPLE LOOK AT HIM, THEY DON’T SEE WHAT I SEE AS CLEAR AS FUCKING DAY, A FUCKING DISGUSTING, RANCID, ASSHOLE THAT DOESN’T GIVE A SINGLE FUCK ABOUT ANYONE ELSE ON THIS PLANET EXCEPT HIMSELF. HE IS THE SCUM OF THE EARTH. BEYOND THE BOTTOM OF THE BARREL. THE ULTIMATE FUCKING DICKHEAD. FUCK HIM AND EVERY FUCKING IDIOTIC PIECE OF SHIT THAT VOTED FOR HIM.

Aw, lil dude!

They might be a far-left extremist but ALSO they might be a Unitarian Universalist, so look carefully

One of my favorite moments in the history of free speech: Larry Flynt publishing a satirical Campari ad featuring Jerry Falwell Sr. as an incestuous drunk who first had sex with his mother in an outhouse. Falwell sued. In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court found that satire is protected speech.

President Johnson, in a November 9, 1968 letter to the Smothers Brothers:

“It is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists . . . May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives.”

Pic is green cloth, and cross-stitched on it is a tiny little yellow and brown flower, and two little red bugs with black antennae. It’s going to say “Gardener” but right now it just says “ardener,” in white blocky sorta whimsical letters.

Started a new #crossstitch project.
Doing this for my best friend who is really into anything gardening.

I'm hearing "political violence has no place in America" from people who were more than OK with what happened on Jan 6, 2021.

To go on a walk with a friend and go have lunch.

That is so pretty!
