A plea to media outlets: Stop using the euphemism "unhinged"! Replace it with something more honest and literal like: IRRATIONAL, or crazy or dysfunctional or delusional. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Finally finished a jacket I started last fall. #Quiltsky. #sewingsky

Xi is statig to be more specific about where he places his navy around Taiwan. Putin is transferring $ to That Stupid Old Man's Swiss account as we speak. Netanyahu is drawing up plans to annex the West Bank and invade Syria. Invading your neighbor has been given carte blanche! Congrats Congress!

Males are the single biggest threat to public safety anywhere, anytime, under any circumstances. If there were any other trait shared by 99% of perpetrators we would erect guardrails to monitor and control those with that trait.

More itty-bitty piecing from Houston International Quilt Festival Quiltsky

This year at the Quilt Festival in Houston I was drawn to itty-bitty piecing.

Add the names of all the male justices and Coney Barren after Thomas's for the full scope of the degradation of our SCOTUS. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

www.dailykos.com/stories/2025... This is spot on.

Trump criticizes Pam Bondi for not charging his adversaries quickly enough, in a Truth Social post that looks a lot like a DM. truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...

When the media calls That Stupid Old Man a "Strongman" he takes it as approval. He sees himself as manly and strong and basks in the supposed praise/recognition. We should only refer to him as Dictator, Demagogue, Felon, Rapist, Abuser, Criminal, Autocrat, Insurrectionist, or That Stupid Old Man.

Looked at my data collections for state-backed activity. If the report were a picture:

I don't think normies truly get how insane this stuff was from Mike Lee, a US SENATOR.

I'm going to assume that Mr. Kirk didn't mind being shot today since he thought gun deaths were an acceptable, even necessary, feature of life in these here United States. And, since he was contemptuous of the concept of empathy, he would not welcome our "thoughts and prayers" even for his family.

WTF does "fully depreciated" mean? Dead!?!?

This was the inspiration for the samples I made. I’m pretty sure I first saw it here on quiltsky. I don’t know if it has a specific name or who posted it. I just really liked it. #quiltsky. #sewingsky

I made a sample of this block with scraps in my stash. I liked it so much I did a second one to make a plaque for the back of this old jacket. #quiltsky #sewingsky

Alas, Quiltsky has become a "selling duvets" site. I can't block them all so I may have to exit. Sad!!

TX flooding Press conference: We'll meet next at 5:00 so y'all can watch us thank each other again. That's all. Thank you.

The first thing I’ve made for myself since last summer. A friend’s design and pattern. The fabric was acquired on a trip to Toronto this spring. #sewsky. #quiltsky

This year I just can’t celebrate the Land of the Indentured and the Home of the Cowed.

For some reason Bluesky wouldn't let me post my march video vertically. At any rate, because of where the march was staged it's impossible to see the whole crown at once. It extends down the street in both directions. I reckon 10-15K

Pittsburgh

I’m taking my Jasper-Johns-Upside-Down-Distress flag to the march today. I HOPE that the events of this week will encourage lots and lots of folks to make their disgust and outrage seem and heard. We need to make them realize that there are more of us than they realize. Grains of sand make beaches.

If you haven't ever heard this, today would be the perfect day to be introduced to it. I promise it's worth a listen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKUR...

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

Is it just me, or is everything the MAGAts are doing designed to engineer a Bigger, Worser North Korea?

On this day May 13th, 1985 the city of Philadelphia dropped a bomb on the Move Home at 6221 Osage Avenue killing 11 people including 5 children. collaborativehistory.gse.upenn.edu/stories/move...

Stephen Miller, Tom Homan, Kristi Noem and a whole lot of ICE/DHS types is will discover a Strange New Respect for habeas corpus and the rule of law when the 2029 Truth and Reconciliation Commission arrests them for human trafficking, conspiracy, kidnapping, and child abuse.

Sam has perfected a maneuver that frees him from his harness so, while I was gardening this afternoon he got to go “free range”. He did great! He explored and discovered butterflies and had the time of his young life! And then came and sat with me on the porch. ❤️

Judge Dugan didn’t break the law—she just didn’t bow to Trump. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

NEW: A federal judge raised alarm Friday that the Trump administration appeared to have deported a 2-year-old U.S. citizen to Honduras with "no meaningful process" — even as her father was fighting to keep her in the country. Details w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

I asked a rabbit that I knew To lay an Easter egg for you. The air was filled with chilly frost. That rabbit said to me, "Get lost! That egg routine is for the funnies. Us rabbits just have little bunnies." This information spoiled my day. But Happy Easter anyway! Ogdan Nash

Just finished a quilted, reusable, and currently all-purpose, protest sign. I hope Jasper John’s wouldn’t mind.

Happening now in Pittsburgh. #handsoff #indivisiblepittsburgh
