I want my yarn. Knowing things are out on delivery just makes me inpatient.

reflecting pool girl summer [trying to change myself and making it worse]

It's been a year since I made the Jade pattern. I love how the freckles turned out. She might have the most pieces too. #crochet 🧶

Hey #plantsky, check out the monkey hand (Chiranthodendron) flower. She's quite splendid. #flowers #trees #bloomscrolling 🌲🌱🌿🌴🥀🎋

If you're a young trans man or trans masc person who needs a dad today, congrats. I am your dad now. I am proud of you and what you've accomplished although some of your young person culture and choices perplex me. I am proof trans men can be middle aged married dudes. You can be too some day. Live.

COMIC: Hope

i think the reflecting pool has gone from “haha what a dumb ass” to “appointing a horse to the senate” level of story here

The beginning of June seems like a perfect time for a ROYGBV in the garden. Starting with the reds. Huechera, poppy, geum, and beet stems. #bloomscrolling 🌱

Went to the produce stand and bought too many strawberries. I am making a reliable cobbler/crisp to make a dent. Don't let the lack of listed spices fool you on the recipe card. It varies depending on the fruit.

woah there, cowboy. you're lookin' mighty bland in those threads. people 'round here don't take kindly to that sort of thing. 🏳️‍🌈pride🏳️‍⚧️ seems a good time for you to tie your horse outside mox's place and let them fix you up. it's ✨Shameless Self Promotion Saturday✨ artbymox.shop/rainbow-capitalism

IF YOU SEE THIS CLOSE THE TAB IMMEDIATELY this is a trick to install malware on your machine. it is not a real captcha system.

Got a pic of the swallowtail that's been fluttering around the garden. They love the Ookow but this is the closest I've been able to get for a picture. 🌱🦋

also realised, in the skellin episode, that it isn't *like* a DnD campaign, it *is* a DnD campaign. once you imagine brennan lee mulligan voicing the trolls, you can't unsee it. this is why it is so loved, this is why it is so hated.

I don't love the new Roundup formulations. Switching the formulas to diquat and triclopyr means a very different risk assessment for applicators

sharing some overdue news about the situation with my first book, COOK LIKE YOUR ANCESTORS, and (related:) a soft shop launch <3

Mass immigration and culture blending are what made the United States the world's dominant economic and cultural power. Anyone who says otherwise is wrong. If you don't love immigrants and diversity then you don't love America, period.

Not my best work, but felt like this was what's on the menu for Bsky today.

The administration has done fucked up. One of the Minnesota 15 is a folk singer, and he spent time in his holding cell leading a sing-a-long with other detainees. Hey ICE, you wanna make a Woody Guthrie? Cuz this is how you make a Woody Guthrie.

Trust scientists, doctors, and trans patients Not Republicans with an ideological agenda to destroy science as an institution so they can make a profit

This is the face of a eugenicist.

🌱 I have been to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition and I thought the gardeners on BlueSky would appreciate this one.

Cut back some lupines and California poppies. Already refilled one yard waste bin. 🌱

This is false. They are not working for ICE. (Not that they don’t share sympathies, but this is false information).

for embroidery and tattoo enthusiasts, this is a lovely piece about a tattoo artist who has done some really great embroidery style tattoos

Willow, The Owl House, Star Trek Discovery, Kipo, and She Ra. I love anything where there is queer joy

there needs to be a coordinated global effort among democracies to destroy this man's financial and social media empires and leave him impoverished and powerless

Algorithmic bias is doing what systems of hierarchy did before the abacus was invented, but a hell of a lot faster, and calling it progress.

When utilized in literature review, LLMs consistently 1. fail to mention female authors in female-led literatures, 2. insist that men are more influential or more heavily cited when this is contradicted by objective citation counts, and 3. attribute women’s work to hallucinated male scholars.

I'm attending a digital humanities event in Montreal. There was a keynote on AI and something about the talk made me wonder if it had been written by Claude. I said as much in the Q&A. As I posed the question, the speaker shifted, looking slightly uncomfortable. What he said next shocked the room +

The Craftster forums. I did fandom exchanges. Learned lots of tutorials, voted on amazing orojests

Yep, looks like a health smoothie

The Ronmneya has started flowering. Lovely scent on them, too bad they usually flower above my head. #bloomscrolling 🌱

I get the impulse for autistic people to want to respond by saying that they DID go to college or play baseball or date and work. But that still plays into ableist narratives. Even if an #ActuallyAutistic person does none of these, they still have worth.

It only needed 3 seasons! Somewhere the second season is already written

Dietrich Bonhoeffer was an anti-fascist German Lutheran pastor who opposed Hitler and the Nazi Party so effectively that they murdered him in 1945. He is only a bad guy if you literally spend all your time on far-right, neo-Nazi websites and have pickled your brain in fascist group chats.

the feds are coming in hard in Minneapolis today it looks like, targeting legal observers. I heard this from a friend there: "An alert was just posted to lock your doors and don’t open them for ICE/officials without a signed warrant. Twin Cities Legal observers’ homes are being raided... [cont'd]

What I have learned today 1)Things to say to Feds: “Let me see your badge and the warrant.” and “I want to speak to my lawyer.” 2) Turn off biometrics on your phone 3) Keep your whistle handy We keep us safe.

time to knit something for myself, it's been a bit and I've been sitting on this pattern for a while. I'm almost done with my current project and I like to have the next thing lined up. 🧶

The weather sucks again, heat this time, so I'm writing up his little vest today. It should be up in Ravelry real quick. #crochet 🧶
