😂😂😂 I don't book-shame but damn I got hit hard with this last year via knitting circle. Tho it was probably for the best, because she is so purty I could barely talk to her, and now we're good, lolol

Ayyyyyy happy agender pride dayyyyyy! fuck gender, don't pin that shit on me

Financial Experts Recommend Putting Tax Return Toward Dream Sandwich https://bit.ly/4dycQ3t

A close friend is the plaintiff in a wrongful death suit, like, RIGHT NOW in front of a jury, and it's so surreal. She just texted 'Ok TTYL judge incoming' and what. Not only does it sound fake, but it's a brutal example of the (very literally) deadly nature of the insurance industry.

vacation hangovers are real

Oh hey happy Mt St Helens Day to those who celebrate! I was T-13 days from birth. My parents remember the ash cloud reaching them on literally the other side of the state. #JustWashingtonStateThings

So for my next cruise I will find one that's not fatphobic or ageist. .... Yeah I know that's not possible, but a kid can dream.

Yup they are glad I'm back 😭😍

I'm struggling with this w/r/t self-pub authors, incl myself. I have less than zero dollars but plan to barter many knitted goods for a cover illustration from a human, cross fingers for me.

If the actor with British accent is evil then you’re watching Sci fi. If the actor with a British accent is good then it’s Fantasy. If the actor with a British accent knocks something over then it’s a Rom com.

Day 7 of Momcation: Ketchikan for approximately five minutes, (incl early morning lumberjacks), a mani-pedi, then just scootin along the water, knitting and enjoying the cold calm.

Day 6 of Momcation: Sitka was quirky. Cutest little Episcopal Church I ever did see. Lots of totems. Perfect weather for this dynamic duo. 10/10 would visit again

Day 5 of Momcation involved seeing a glacier (on the very right) and trying not to burst into tears at our destruction of this beauty. I'm going to close the curtains and knit for a while, and try not to think.

Day 4 of Momcation started at 3:12am with a nightmare, so that's cool. Anyway. It's already going by too fast, despite that.

Sounds like a summary of part of the historical re-creation group I have since left. When even people I thought were cool defended using sw*stikas on garb, I knew I was on my way out.

Did not occur to me that the onboard swimming pools would be sloshing around way harder than any of the rest of us on this very calm Pacific. It sounds like ocean waves, almost. If I squint.

Day 3 of Momcation - I kind of forgot I was on a cruise until I woke up this morning and we're legit rollin. We are to be on open water all day, though Canada isn't far. Yo ho yo ho etc etc

I don't know who needs to hear this, but yes, you do deserve a bookshelf with a rolling ladder.

Day 2 of Momcation - We're getting on a boat later, so right now I'm spending my time being sentimental about being away from these creatures for a week 😭 #cats #Caturday

Day One of Momcation involves no Mom, lol, just packing for the actual trip. And lazing about in bed with my cats and some light reading.

THAT PART

I've watched this like fifty-seven times this morning 😂😭❤️❤️❤️

Me [1:07 PM] I need a drink. Or yoga. Or something. Work Bestie [1:09 PM] maybe both. maybe wine yoga exists. Me [1:09 PM] well white women exist, so I'm sure it does

Ah, I'd forgotten what a cesspool LinkedIn social feeds are. I'll not forget again.

Yeah, If the only two episodes you just didn't find believable are also the only episodes with sympathetic black female guest stars, that's a YOU problem, and you're telling on yourself. (this grossness brought to you by the otherwise delightful Supernatural: Then & Now podcast)

me and my unicorn tapestry cardigan at the unicorn tapestry :)

Ended up spending most of the day winding yarn for socks. As one does. 🧶 🫠 (I did not write down the fancy yarn's name before winding the labels into the cakes, sorryyyy. The yellow is leftover Knitpicks Stroll. Pattern TBD.)

Today I am determined to only 'be productive' on *things I actually enjoy*. Feels both good and rebellious. So uh back to those AO3 comments from 2025 😅

'perhaps a bear or two' 😂 the absolute nonchalance Bears notwithstanding, hashtag I want to go to there.

Just #knitting on a scrap-yarn blanket in the sunshine while my car gets an LOF. The music is as awful as the coffee but I'm content anyways. 🧶 🚙 ☕

dapple dapple dapple dapple dapple (and Thor)

Okay well I fixed my washing machine again, only this time it involved a pool noodle, so surely nothing can go wrong again

I guess I could solve the whole 'Do I work in the Seattle office on May Day or nah' conundrum by calling out and pretending it's some kind of personal protest. Then again, I am on board with rest as radical protest in this sickly productivity-based society. So I think I've talked myself into it.

TFW you realize you said something problematic on a call in a quiet office but you don't know who heard or who to apologize to so you just live with it 🫠

i am peach and peach is me

One of the most thought-provoking concepts from Leverage is the idea that "thieves and liars think everyone else is a thief and a liar." I think the converse is also often the case. Good people thought "nah, people won't do that in real life in the 21st century" and bet a country on it.

if anybody near me breathes a word of shock or surprise about this Supreme Court making conservative decisions, I am going to burst into flames like Mary god damn Winchester.

It's funny cause it's truuuueeee, I permanently injured my foot by over-exercising in my late 20s.

I'm def not Gen Z, but I see them in the pews. There's something about serious Anglican liturgy and serious inclusion that just *works* here.

FREEEEEEE FEEEEEELS! Unfortch you have to control-F for queer books, but it's always a good time regardless 😁

I just explained my books' mythology to a persistent near-stranger on public transit and now I feel funny 🙃

Anybody under 80 using the phrase '{blank} these days' automatically gets an eyeroll from me. Unless you're being ironical. In which case, maybe still an eyeroll unless it's witty, not just mocking. 'Nostalgia isn't what it used to be.' -Benjamin Franklin, probably

Home ownership is a scam, btw. So is renting, but when people make home ownership a big awesome superior thing, they are lying. Straight up flat out lying.

not me replying to AO3 comments from September la la laaaa

Sorry fam, I am apparently not getting anything else done today. #caturday

there is an important corollary here however, insofar as an affirming Episcopal church with consciously Protestant theology and the possibility of a Matt Redman song during communion will be full of lesbians

I can always find things that give me good feelings when I need them. The issue is that it doesn't seem to make me any better at dealing with *gestures* everything else. Is this where I poetically say something about how the point of an artist is to feel things too deeply Bc if so, I decline.
