If I ever knit, tat, or crochet something for you, just know that not only are you getting the item I made, you are also getting a piece of me. I mean that in the grandiose metaphorical sense and, unfortunately, also very literally. I apologize for the hair.

trust us bro.

I have been learning to crochet

When people ask me how it’s going, I tell them, “Fortunately, I already did cross-stitch, so I’ve already come to terms with the fact that I can’t count”

This hits big in fiber arts circles

just made the best non-looping gif i think

i can't be the only one

nosferatu (2024, dir. robert eggers) is just...meh. whatever. fine, but not great at all.

and honestly dracula (1992, dir. francis ford coppala) was a better vampire costume drama.

i feel like we as a digital society have forgotten the important rules of the internet

Don't feed the trolls

Never give out personal information

Anonymity is the best defense

Don't click suspicious links

Don't click popups and ads

Just because it's written doesn't mean it's true

You are responsible for your own experience

There is porn of everything, act accordingly

Seeing the Public Defender Discourse on my dash hits very differently for me, as an ideologically Left-committed Jew, but who has been driven out from the Left and lost friends due to the "Israel is axiomatically guilty of genocide, and (((Zionists))) are presumed guilty until proven guilty" belief structure that's taken hold over the last two years.

People writing about snow: I need you to know that it is not instantly wet. Unless it's just barely at the freezing point, snow will need a moment to melt before it becomes wet. An article of clothing dropped in the snow will not become soaking wet in seconds. Or even minutes. It will only become wet if there is still snow on it once it starts warming up from body contact or being brought somewhere warmer. Usually the worst of the snow can be brushed off before it starts to melt.

I realize that a majority of the world's population has probably never interacted with snow so it's more a me problem, but few inaccuracies drive me as crazy as "wet snow".

went on a walk near some sheep today, and i scrounged a stick and some wool to spin with - much to the fascinated bewilderment of my colleagues

Break up Visa and Mastercard. Break up any bank worth more than a billion dollars. Tax excess profits at 125%. Make companies pay exorbitant fees to conduct stock buybacks. Cap interest rates on mortgages at 1%. Raise the minimum wage to $50 an hour. Make healthcare universal and ban private hospitals. Make legislators sell everything they own and live in barracks like monks. Make elected officials swear oaths of poverty. Tax churches. Prosecute Exxon. Take Fox News off the air. Build a world in which it’s impossible to be both rich and powerful.

huge fan of the depth of a good purple but another area that draws me is definitely around aquamarine/turquoise/seafoam. you can not go wrong once the green starts getting just a tinge more blue. a gal could certainly do worse than to pull over there and stay a while

I made a bad comic and now you have to look at it
