How much easier would it be to read Bluesky or Fazbuks if people looked at the comments and thought, “Oh, somebody already said that. I’ll just give them a like. I don’t need to waste all that typing repeating it.”

#CrochetCreations Crafty Intentions Doll pattern. Sidequested Teal Bard Inspiration. (KB Spangler and Ale Presser) (All clothing designed, patterned and hand sewn by moi!) Doll made in August; matching fabrics, making patterns and sewing them took time... and I didn't have that much extra time.

This is ancient. In English villages, when the villagers expressed their anger at inappropriate behavior they serenaded them with “rough music.” DANG!!!!

Oh, yes, let’s not forget: Where are the stein Files? Leagally should have been turned over a few days ago..

Looks legitimate... It says it's BlueCross, doesn't it?

#CrochetCreations #CraftyIntentions First make of the year. A tentacle for my daughter, who has a friend who is going to love it. Crafty Intentions pattern Porthole Tentacle, Large Tentacle variation. Worked up quite fast.

Coolest fun fantasy… read the online, buy the comic

#CrochetCreations #CraftyIntentionsPattern Was challenged/commissioned to see how well I could use a pattern to create a vision. Elphaba and Galinda; based on the Crafty Intentions Doll Patterns and stills from the Second Wicked Movie.

I came, I listened and thank goodness for handiwork, or that would have 30 minutes wasted.

It’s either Trump Bizzaro Derangement Syndrome or lies, damned lies and no statistics.

“Papers, Citizen.” The brown ones first, then the slant eyes, and finally, everybody we think isn’t showing enough deference. Wait for it, wait for it…. Or FIGHT NOW.

It is hope, hope that we can fight our own demons, fight, bring down, defeat and make our world new and safe.

I stand with Mark Kelly.

Remember having an office in a building with co-workers, spending 8-10 hours in a tiny little cubicle space? And dressing it up with toys to make it less dire? I just found my old office friends from long ago. The Dust Puppies have a home, but anybody want other toys?

An account claiming to be Musk followed me today… What the Musk?

How long have I been a technogeek? Derbies from cleaning out my office. You can all guess…

#CrochetCreations Last year I tested the Mermaid slide-on tail pattern for Megan Conway Lapp. Testers can't show their creations until the patterns drop. It's been a long wait to show off my mermaids. Here's the pattern: and four comments below show the dolls I made. www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

Yes...

I am enjoying this story enormously.

Let’s do a quick math survey. US Population = 340 million people. 40 million ~ 12% of the population, includes 16 million underage. The rest receive benefits when their earned income dips because of work availability. Nobody is sitting on their behind reaping $300 princely dollars a month.

Why are they calling him a “youth?” He’s a “youth” like Young Republicans are “Boys” having locker room chats on a chat room. The man is 33 years old, damnit!

Dude! You’re soft.

Things that show us how far we've come to how far we still have to go.

Frogtifa... JUST what we need! Frogs are the bellweathers of change in the ecosystems.

Portland staying weird... and I hear that yesterday "Frogtifa" had a super secret meetings way out in the open where they couldn't be listented to... www.youtube.com/shorts/BSkDJ...

Uhhh... dat's not dah goirl-friend.... Dat's de Funder uff Aunty-Fa

#crochetcreations This is a mash-up of Crafty Intentions Doll and "Thicc Mushroom Lady" by Mushroom Fables Crochet. The instrument came from Australia. I made this for a beloved friend. inspired by Yulia Ustinova's "Moonlight Piper." 3 years from inspiration to execution.

I’ve blocked a small set of people on my timeline… mostly for begging or spewing evil stuff. Today I blocked “I’m an 18 year old girl looking for a local bf.” Ugh.

And dead,,, Fleeing ICE in Chicago. But, hey! He’s an undocumented alien lawbreaker and it’s fine to shoot him down like a dog and not let ambulances in. Not like they’ve cared about any medical needs while people are in their custody either.

It’s all about quotas. People thought it was all about brown skins… all about yellow skins… all about any little teensy weeny criminal charge… Irish woman here for 47 years, mother of 5 American born citizens, deported for a $10 check that bounced and was repaid. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Risky? Since those idiots arrested and deported him, his whole life is at risk forevermore. And he did nothing to cause this.

So… the Venezuelan murder fiasco on the high seas wasn’t the first Trump sea-Bourne fiasco.

Well expressed.

Yes, indeedy.

I DON’T CARE IF IT WAS AN ACCUSED DRUG TRAFFICKER!!! WHAT HAPPENED TO “HEAVE TO?” AND WHO ACCUSED THEM AND WHICH COURT CONDEMNED THEM? This is - - - not piracy on high seas… All I can call it is that is an undeclared war…

What stupid CO of the Navy ordered and launched a missile at an unarmed civilian boat in extra-territorial waters with total loss of life and boat? Which ship? What KIND of missile? What kind of dumb-ass officer and stupider gunnery officer… The more I think about it the more angry I get.

Well. That escalated even more quickly, brutally and senselessly than even pessimistic Aye expected. America warships blew “up and out” (of the water) a speedboat leaving port with total loss of life on board… also, total loss of on-board evidence, but let’s not be picky and bring up details… heh?

Focusing on the real problem.

What is needed, and I have no idea how much work it will be, is a “Database of the Disappeared.” It should have an email and anybody should be able to send,

“Only KNOWN child-rapist and procurer…”

Six IRS bosses in 6 months. I wonder how many people think, (like I do in the dark watches of the night) that the IRS with wholly precedented HUGE legal weapons against the taxpaying public, is moving through a transition in which they are becoming the enforcing arm of a mob that grabbed the US Gov?

this whole: "Thank you for your attention to this matter" thing is getting on my nerves. Dude! You want me to do something about a load of blether? I'm trying, I'm trying, but you won't get your butt out of the damned driver's seat.

Nancy Mace, after a town hall in Charleston responding to a reporter (female like her): "And you're a raging Democrat. So, raging leftist with that kind of questioning. And I would say, as a woman, like you might want to think about how you view other women

#CrochetCreations Moon and Milky Way. Made with a Megan Lapp pattern "Geodes" and weird yarns and acrylic pony beads.

/1 Really pissed. I called somebody out yesterday where they posted and claimed a crocheted geode as their own creation. It’s a pattern by Megan Lapp, of Crafty Intentions. After shocked apologies and assurances that they ALWAYS attributed the pattern to the creator, I checked their Etsy page.

And now I am getting letters purporting to be from Marsha Blackburn, asking me to support ICE which will save our communities from dangerous criminals. Phththtbtbtbttbb

Just saw a post claiming that when BlueSky feels it is “mature” and developed enough, they will institute “blue check marks” and charge $10 per account. Dudes: YES. The only way to stop advertising is to pay. I’d love to not wade through crap here. Facebook is no longer a swamp-it’s a sewer.
