I finally started Joe Hill’s KING SORROW this morning, and now I see why it’s popping up on Best of 2025 lists! Holy cats! From characters to action to atmosphere, it’s a page turner. I can’t read it fast enough! Also, the part about the filmed seance? Scared the ever-livin’ crap out of me. 📚💙

Just looking at this photo helps me forget it was 19 degrees F this morning.

This entire weekend

SO TRUE 👇👇

Such a rich color! 🧶💙

A+ trolling from Zelenskyy

You have a legitimacy crisis.." #BlueCrew

She looked out. The profile of a demon lord decorated the city's skyline. She sighed; did the pose. The goddess lifted her, transformed her into a magical girl. She beat the demon into a pulp, then faced the harder battle: to return to her seventy-year old body, with aching knees and knuckles.

KKKristi Noem is a lying piece of shit.

Whooo!! 📚💙

The release of the Epstein files is required by law to happen on December 19th. On December 18th, we will "officially" be at war with Venezuela. Bank on it.

As ever, big thanks to Joe Hill for all that he’s done to push my novel, Coffin Moon! Here he’s named it one of his favorite books of the year, alongside some heavy hitters. (Oh, and read Joe’s King Sorrow, my god, what a story.)

My God, these spineless Republicans are so goddamn stupid and hateful.

I think it's very annoying that by "tech" (see: techno-optimism) people only refer to the most recent, most hyped investment tool. So that if you don't buy the hype of the most recent bullshit, you're anti-tech. I'm not anti-food if I don't buy White Castle's new sliders, bro.

Time to crochet some more slippers. I'm using tan and maroon for this pair.

Okay, so I’ve successfully swallowed a giant antibiotic, taken all my morning meds, made tea and ate a scone, washed the dishes, and mopped the mudroom floor. I’m tired, but I can tell I’m getting better. I’ll be curious to see my heart rate today. It was >120 most of the day Monday. EKG was ok.

I hope KKKristi Noem’s hair extensions wither away in the heat of her rage!

That DHS regularly lies is no shock, but the abject incompetence of its lawyers—-who I assume went to law school—continues to amaze me.

Also, of course, the State Department changing typefaces for reasons that boil down to "fuck accessibility" is both utterly in line with the overt bigotry of this administration and a signal indicator of how unserious these people are, it doesn't matter what typeface you use when you're a joke

Handset type. My gosh.

So it’s not a virus. The lab ran a more thorough analysis and confirmed a UTI. Now on meds. Still little to no appetite or energy. Slept a lot today. At least I’m not committing acts of piracy like this fucked-up administration.

GOOD.

🧶💙 So adorable!

I’ve had what I think is a virus for the past 2 days: no appetite, headache, nausea, intestinal distress, and racing heartbeat. Doc did a CBC, checked my blood sugar, checked urine, did swabs for COVID & flu, & gave me a liter of IV fluids. Feel like utter shit. *whine*

🧶💙

🧶💙 This looks like such fun!

*cough* If you're gift shopping for anyone interested in how the world works, do consider these. Storm in a Teacup is all about the physics of everyday life and Blue Machine is all about how the ocean works - the water itself, which is the biggest story on Earth. Share the joy of nature & science!

This was one of three watercolors in a series. I was badly needing a day of painting play. I teach a workshop called Creative Play for Adults. I have to mirror that. It was immensely enjoyable painting with wild abandon. #ArtAdventCalendar #EastCoastKin #trees

These days? “The good die young— and those whose hearts are dry as summer dust Burn to the socket.”

Oh, damn! *cackling*

Happy #Caturday

Wheeeee!! 🧶💙

“And then they made him a fake trophy because he kept whining and moaning and wouldn’t STFU.”

🧶💙. Crocheted snowflakes are so pretty!

Signal boosting! 🧶💙

It’s beautiful!

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

The entire thread had me cry-laughing!

Yummy yarn! 🧶💙
