Up to 15 hats for my 2026 project. Only … 185 to go 😏🧶#knitting

I made this post on LinkedIn thinking it was fairly even in tonality and thought process but boy was I wrong (apparently). I’m being told that I am the problem. Curious what you think.

What is going on in Palestine? What is going on in Ukraine? What is going on in Sudan? What is going on in Iran? Maybe it’s not about the Epstein files. Maybe we are being distracted from other things for other reasons.

I’m reading The Anti-Ableist Manifesto by Tiffany Yu and found this passage oh so relevant today. That being said, to my shame, I would probably try to be safe for myself first.

We are very concerned about this in Ohio.

The other day I was at the grocery store and I saw this little girl with a fuzzy white hat that has two little pompoms on top. I immediately thought of little Liam with his blue bunny hat. I’ll be blacking out my social media tomorrow in solidarity with the January 30 shutdown.

Hat number something. I think 14? I’ll have to count tomorrow. This also seemed like it took forever. Not sure what the deal is with this red yarn but I don’t like it. 🧶#knitting

Part of my productivity issue is this little doggy spiky-haired head. How can I not pet it? So distracting.

I dunno about yall but I love that we are getting Challenger explosion videos mixed in with Alex Pretti murder videos. I felt like I wasn’t getting enough trauma from today so this supplement from 40 years ago is perfect.

I hope no one is surprised that Rep. Omar got attacked. We now have Pretti Good evidence that if 47 says someone should be attacked they will be.

#psalm10 “forget not the humble.” Pretty appropriate for these days.

My landlord is so good about plowing so that cars are trapped in. It’s a gift really. #fern

(1) What this is a reckoning for white America. Before we were even a country we were enslaving Africans, killing them, and massacring Native People. Andrew Jackson sent troops into Cherokee homes and forced them to march halfway across the country. He told John Marshall to enforce treaties.

For my #knitting and #crocheting friends 🧶this is a great idea. You get beautiful yarn, and we all get to donate to Minnesota. sunshinequeenfiberarts.com?fbclid=IwRlR...

In briefly scanning comments tonight I think our remaining 47 supporters are going to have to experience ICE violence themselves before they change their minds. How sad that empathy is dead, but here we are.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

I might have to keep this one for myself. 🤭 #knitting 🧶

This hat has taken me all week and I’m not done yet somehow. I thought it would go fast because the red yarn is thick. Boy was I wrong! For some reason. 🧶#kniting

So if 47 is a Fascist now, does that mean people who support him should also be called Fascists?

Pretty soon we won't have to worry about historical interpretation at Fort Sumter. #NationalParks www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/c...

“Preoccupied with the notion that only the dead dare speak the truth, he thought our need to make a living turned us all into cowards.” Ron Chernow, Mark Twain #booksky

Is Macron trying to out crazy 47? What a shit show.

The stock market sure took a dump today. It’s almost like emailing Europe that you want to control them was a bad idea 😐

There’s always one.

Hey @mrobin032009.bsky.social - I’m back on the evil platform. I messaged you there :)

Thinking about a buddy of mine from LinkedIn. She’s very active, commenting and posting multiple times a day. But she hasn’t posted for a month. Radio silence. I hope she is okay and just decided to take an unannounced break.

Add your name to the petition NOW and demand an END to Trump's militarized occupation in Minnesota. sign.moveon.org/petitions/mi...

The markets did everything they could to hold steady in the face of the Jerome Powell subpoenas, but I’m not sure they’ll do well with this news.

I’m about a third of the way through One Battle After Another. I know this because I paused to look how long the movie is because I am bored so far. I’m assuming it gets better.

Better? 🧶🤞🏻#knitting

The finished project and my two attempts at making a Pom Pom. There was an effort. It looked so easy in the video.

BREAKING: Medical examiner says death of ICE detainee was a HOMICIDE - a witness says he was choked to death by GUARDS. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

I need your votes on how I should finish this hat. So far it’s white with an orange rim. Should I: 1. Finish it in white so it just has the orange rim 2. Finish it up in orange 3. Do an orange section and finish with white I seriously can’t decide. #knitting 🧶

Why are robins here in January in subzero weather?? So weird.

Kelly/Buttigieg 2028? Buttigieg/Kelly? I’d be okay with that.

How is a snow warning useful if it says 1-7 inches are possible? There is a major difference there. 1 - annoying. 7 - bad. Cmon now.

Hakeem Jeffries says his current focus is to pass appropriations bills. Get with the times, brother. If the government shuts down would we even notice? Seems the people did a better job caring than the government in November.

The response to what is happening in Minneapolis is strong and urgent as it should be. It just feels like so much more than what Chicago or LA got and I’m not sure why. Is Minneapolis worse? We now know people have been killed all over by ICE. What do you think the difference is?

Fortnite South Park may get me to play Fortnite :)

Rest in power 🙏🏻

If you’re wondering why a lot of Americans are even less okay now…

Is anyone watching Dark on Netflix? It’s quite weird. Kind of like Twin Peaks and Stranger Things had a baby.

This platform is so crazy. Angry post angry post heartbreaking post bunny! Angry post angry post flowers!

When an email attributed to @captmarkkelly.bsky.social makes you cry. I’m fine. “Do not be afraid. Do not be silent. Speak out.”

And this isn’t even front page news.

My hat project so far. Nice round…11? Who takes a picture at 11? Well, I do. Apparently. 🧶

I made couscous last night and today it has kind of turned into a soft pillow. I did not foresee this.

Is there a limit to how many times you can watch ICE falling on ICE?

for the #church folk and even other #nonprofits out there, how do you find staff? Job posting sites have all become prohibitively expensive. We have two job postings but are struggling to get responses…

Perfect
