The regime has unleashed its goons on anyone with brown or black skin. It's morally repugnant, un-American and must end.

Small joy: figuring out the tubular bind off so I can read my work. 1x1 rib. Knits are purled on and #knit off. Purls are knit on and purled off. I was constantly getting lost on the steps doing the hem. I'm much more confident and even on the first cuff #RoseFrostSweater #BrownSheepYarn

Ever notice #Scrooge spends all that time time in the wee hours with the ghosts and never once needs a wc? For an older man, that's some bladder/prostate he's got going therel

These were people already approved to be naturalized, yet they were stopped solely because of their countries of origin. MAGA keeps saying, “If they wanted to be in this country, they should have done it the right way.” Well, they did. And the administration still blocked them. Cruelty is the point.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

In 1906, Finland became the first European country to grant women the right to vote & run for office. The first 19 women in the Finnish parliament, the Eduskunta, were elected in 1907. #suffrage It's Independence Day in #Finland, adopting the Declaration of Independence from Russia #OTD in 1917.

Well, another year where our Island soccer team did not get chosen to play in FIFA. On the bright side, we didn’t have to attend or flap our wings for the participation trophies given out. Time to prepare for Eurovision selection.

All right, crafty folks. I need everyone who sees this to keep a look out for the following shawls.

Poor Henry. Someone should adopt him.

It’s important to acknowledge that Donald Trump is slashing funding for HIV prevention and global health programs, undermining public health agencies, and treating vulnerable communities as political collateral. That is not leadership. It’s cruelty dressed up as policy.

Break out the big guys! I use between 2-4 needle sizes larger than my project needle to ensure a tidy and relaxed finish 🎉 #knitting #knittingpattern #knitsky #showmeyourknits #justknitting

I hate picots. Treble picots triply so. I finished this #Dissent collar yesterday after the late afternoon announcement from USCIS re canceling Protected Status for Afghans and Haitians. Happy Holiday. Yeah, right. Even the bitch is less than happy.

Tyson Foods announces that they’ll be closing a major beef-processing plant in Lexington, Nebraska with 3,200 employees. Lexington has a population of 11,205. Nebraska overwhelmingly voted for the orange felon over VP Kamala Harris. I hope they’re enjoying their vote.

I’m auctioning off a bevy of beautiful knit-by-me samples starting Nov 27th over on Instagram. All proceeds will be donated to Birds Canada. I’d love if you could help broadcast to a wider audience. A small sampling below:

You absolutely have the constitutional right to record ICE, Border Patrol, or any law enforcement officer in public, and with everything happening in Charlotte right now, people need to understand that clearly.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

#WIPWednesday progress on my #RoseFrostSweater Finally at the hem of the body. Now I'm getting antsy to start the next sweater. And I still have sleeves to do on this one. Brown Sheep Nature Spun 🧶

Not only was knitting used by organized spies, but women in occupied areas were often able to overhear troop plans and movements just by sitting and knitting! Never underestimate a crafter! I'm planning a detailed post, but I had to share this bit now. #craftivism #resistance #knitting #didyouknow

NEWS: The UK is no longer sharing intelligence with the US about suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean because it does not want to be complicit in US military strikes and believes the attacks are illegal, sources familiar with the matter told CNN. edition.cnn.com/2025/11/11/p...

Military members swore an oath to defend the Constitution, not to police American cities and chill dissent. If you or a loved one has served in the military, join us in telling the Trump administration that troops don't belong on our streets.

#Stormtroopers following a school bus? What has me curious is was that rear vehicle design on purpose, engineers being #StarWars fans, or just a happy accident? @markhamillofficial.bsky.social
