Spin the wheel. That's who's trying to kill you.

Spin the wheel again. That’s who’s trying to protect you.

(If you have zero idea about the name you got, spin until you see someone you recognize.)

(Six months ago, I did a version of this poll with about five hundred options on the spinner wheel. For this one, I more than doubled it.)

More crochet squares! The pink one was made using half double stitches while the orange one was made using double crochets. Made while following a course by @secretyarnery.

I'm so sad in such a strange way to hear about the Corporation for Public Broadcasting officially shutting down. It's a weird feeling. Most of it is the intellectual level of "oh this is SO fucking bad and terrifying that we'll no longer have federally supported public information channels anymore, it will ALL be through the private market, not to mention the stark reminder of the US government's continued descent into anti-intellectualism and fascism," all of which makes my stomach sink.

But on a smaller level it is the disappearance of something that was so ubiquitous to American childhood. I'm pretty sure the vast majority of Americans can hear the exact intonation of this phrase in their head: "This program made possible by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and by viewers like you. Thank you."

There is a lot more that could be said about the likely repercussions of this. In addition to being sad, I am also exceedingly furious. I wish despair upon all the Republicans who helped kill the CBP just because it took its mission seriously and refused to broadcast overt right-wing propaganda as news.

My final three attacks for Art Fight 2025! Characters belong to @darkpinkbread, Car_goes_beep, cy-chin, and Prosto_kustarnik.

I didn't reach my initial goal of 31 attacks, but I did reach my secondary goal of a positive attack ratio so we take those.

I hate that this took me the entire fight to finish, but I'm glad it got done. One down, three more to go!

Like idk maybe I'm toxic, but if I raced against someone and lost, and THEY got mad at ME because they felt my performance wasn't up to snuff to an insulting degree, I'm throwing hands.

The most unrealistic part of Uma Musume ain't even the horse girl aspect; it's the idea that these girls live, attend school, and compete together and never ONCE try to tear each other down.

Shoutouts to Horse Race Tests; I never thought a bunch of bouncing blobs would have me staring at my screen like this:

Behold, a coaster!!

My supervisor at work knows how to crochet and it's inspired me to get back into learning it for the first time since elementary school. Here's a little square I made while following along with a course by @secretyarnery.
