As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Shout out to my anaesthesiologist. I think a regular propofol nap might Fix Me tbh.

My mostly handmade outfit for this event was On Theme.

Google out here trying to tempt me into turning on its capabilities via "but you can catch Pokemon".

Have you tried just channeling your instincts to appease into BDSM instead of letting them inform your political philosophy?

If you were at Summer Camp and saw someone in an amazing cape, it was probably Mandy. Help if you can, if you can't please share anyway <3 - spot.fund/cs91hlcsc

My partner got a @deviantollam.bsky.social in his Black Badge cards #defcon33

Heads up to folks staying at the Res Inn by the convention center - the gate code is the same but you better be nimble bc there is construction trash between us and LVCC. #DEFCON #DEFCON33

Corrupt people can’t imagine people who aren’t corrupt, so “why not be corrupt, that’s how *everyone* does it” is a hell of a spiral.

With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

The local bike path is now the site of a vigorously contested pet… election?… and it seems like something @darthbluesky.bsky.social should know about

Being unsupervised and unreachable for the entire day as a tween/teen.

Inner monologue like "This is the Lockpicking Lawyer, and what I have for you today is a box filled with An Ancient Evil that I will be unleashing." #TheMet

Just saw a comedian say "If vaccines caused autism then America would have trains" and I almost spit out my drink.

everyone signing on to be a part of the new HBO Max Harry Potter series is endorsing this and should be treated accordingly

"WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY" - Me. Screaming aloud in the grocery store parking lot, while returning *someone else's* abandoned cart to the corral.

Who will Win? 1. The entire county sheriff's department, with help from the state troopers and several local fire departments 2. One old man in a mental health crisis We are at hour 30 of me being trapped in my neighborhood due to the stalemate.

Went to see the Addams Family musical and gave it my best Morticia.

Sometimes I manage to put together an outfit that feels like pajamas, but is also Fancy Looking AND weather appropriate. (The sweater was knit by me, and is a modified version of the Twist Cardigan by @ambahobrien.bsky.social )

I immediately went to my library app to get this let's gooooooo

New sweater has me feeling Spring Ready. Knitwear is for All Seasons y'know? Pattern is Le Pouf Sweater #knitting

And heeeeeeere we go. Measles is *way* more than contagious enough at sea level. Put it in a sealed tube at altitude with a couple of hundred "I-didn't-know" or "I-don't-care" non-mask-wearers, some of them perhaps pregnant, and...? (hides eyes)

Anyone in PDX know a mutual aid org/group that can get diabetic testing strips or lancers to someone who needs them? I got prescribed the wrong kind TWICE for my machine, which my wife picked up without realizing it, and for obvious reasons, the pharmacy can't take back even unopened boxes.

I am ready for this outfit to be seasonally appropriate (instead I'm going to have to figure out how to style this new knit top as a top layer I think.)

The yoke is done so here is a fit-check mirror selfie about it.

Oh no it matches the sweater I'm making right now *so perfectly*

Today's knitting has a very specific vibe.

Just started the newest episode of @wtyppod.bsky.social and @devononearth.bsky.social almost killed me during the news. I inhaled my water and dropped my 1L bottle, Devon. Excellent work.

I just finished this and want to wear it all the time forever. Who *doesn't* want a sparkly rainbow sweater to help combat all the... Everything. Pattern is Jolly Jumper by Ambah O'Brien Yarn is the Catvent kit 2024 from An Caitin Beag Sweater is knit by me!

So how’s it going so far?

If all hope really was lost and there was nothing we could do, they wouldn't spend so much time and money yelling about it. Do what you can with what you have. 💕

The SO says it's very Carmen Sandiego. My itinerary shall be loaded up with moving violations I guess??

The eggs tell us much. TC understands.

I test knit the Rockhound Pullover for @woolandpine.bsky.social and I love it?!! If you are a knitter go to their shop (website or ravelry) and the pattern is 30% off until 29 Jan! This is a size 42 on me (37" bust, wide shoulders). Yarn is a DK cashmerino from colourmart.
