Re: the Elizabeth Holmes documentary with Nathan fielder, my favorite comment has been that an autist and a narcissist are natural enemies, fundamentally

I like Chelsea boots conceptually perhaps

This is my first knitted 🧶 stranded color work project, so I better modify half of it to include brioche, which also I haven't ever done before. And by brioche I meant two color brioche

Bell Beast and baby 🥺 Around a year ago I was testing the Bell Beast for @xensilverquill.bsky.social and right at the end @/beetle_makes (IG) posted her baby beast version. It took me almost a year to finally crochet the baby? Yes, yes it did 😂 #crochet #amigurumi #fiberartist #craftsky #silksong

I am so serious when I say much of the discourse on "telling people they're wrong" today could be solved with free school lunches In this essay I will

I am part of fiber arts discords and groups but I want something where people get online with voice or video so we can all be in our homes but talk while we create

The thing that keeps showing up over and over and over again in leftist discussions is whether we should punish and ostracize those who did wrong or if we can work to include them

If AOC gives MAHA-flavored women a way to feel not-shamed and not-stupid, & finds common grounds around values (healthy kids + safe food + clean air, water, land) she may be more successful at leading them away than (male) voices again telling these women that they are dumb and wrong. 2/

Books where you don't even know the MC hair color or height and then a fat woman shows up: "Ok, so: She's enormous and disgusting and the hair?! Omg, stringy. The ground creaks under. She's greasy and dripping sweat and we all threw up. "To conclude: she was fat. Remember? So fat. Also lonely."

Wheat Chex were originally called 'shredded Ralston'

Tell me a fun fact.

Thinking to myself: I'm doing a really good job about not eating crap at night : why don't I drink a bunch of wine, just as a test

Listen my first word was DUH and now no one even says it, which I think is disrespectful

GLORIA STEINEM GREW UP IN EAST TOLEDO AND I NEVER KNEW

Just now: I call back my mom, she answers in a whisper. After a moment she asks if she can call me back because she's on an elevator. I call back in a few minutes, I say hello. She says, oh I'm at the Drs, I have to go

Sometimes I call people, they answer, I launch into a story about my cat or my feud with the pharmacy, and 5 minutes in, they'll be like, "oh can I actually call you back, I'm teaching a class right now" or "ah I'm sorry I have to speak quietly because I'm in church and it's the prayer" like wtf

This is the first European cartographic mention of Lake Ontario. The year was 1688. It’s Lake Ontario.

I tried to use my record player but my cat kept swiping at it, so I turned it off and he's just waiting next to it. Just in case.

unions are for all workers. don't let the anti-union propaganda convince you otherwise. union workers get better pay, better working conditions, and better rights. important also to emphasize that they are using mentor in the article as a term of art to obfuscate the fact that your PI is your boss.

Matthew Borus@matthewborus.bsky.social · 2w ago

This is the standard union-busting trope, “Our workplace is a family and a union would disrupt that.” A few words are swapped tomake it about mentorship, but that’s it. And as a former unionized grad student who now supervises unionized grad workers, let me state the obvious: It’s nonsense.

Very happy bc @streetcat-stan.bsky.social tested my sock pattern for beginners, trans people, and folks with high arches. Because crip time is nonlinear, we did it without a deadline and she just sent me her last, very helpful notes. Please clap, this is her first sock! #knitsky ⬇️

So is half of it lake Ontario and the other half lake america

Horseshoe theory means that my dad and I have a lot more to talk about these days, genuinely

went to pick up takeout, and because they forgot to enter the order in, I ended up spending 1.5 hours with two MAGA voters they were crying about Dolly & I was crying about Dolly & we ended up having a weirdly wholesome night where we all agreed the only thing that mattered was to love each other

Yeah obviously I'm preordering the criterion collection release of KPop Demon Hunters, I'm not an animal

This is my pet, he's semi-feral (as all cats are) He sticks around because he likes us, and also probably because I've heard he's just ok at catching mice. But mostly he likes us and I think that's nice

Having chronic pain is so IRRITATING istg just give me a schedule

Ok fuck it I might as well go all in on fiber arts so what's a good beginner loom 🧶

Every news item about revoking the TPS of Haitians makes me so angry I want to spit Do people not know what TPS is or what it's granted for

I picked up Hades 2 again and I still can't beat Typhon, so unfortunately I have gamer rage

Ok it's healing and the second skin is making it murky but still, this is my favorite new piece of the sleeve

Sometimes I call people, they answer, I launch into a story about my cat or my feud with the pharmacy, and 5 minutes in, they'll be like, "oh can I actually call you back, I'm teaching a class right now" or "ah I'm sorry I have to speak quietly because I'm in church and it's the prayer" like wtf

Got some work done on a tattoo that crosses my soft elbow-pit and holy hell I had no idea tattoos could hurt that bad
