Those of us in Philly won't be mad AT ALL. Not one bit.

I know its hard when they come at you directly out of pocket but stop reacting. Instead start looking to see what it is. BS users need to go back to our original credo of block & dont engage b/c it spreads said discord. Think about the recent X influx. Ppl who thought staying was fine are now here.

Can y’all raise some noise about this? @jazzpomegranate.com still has not received an explanation as to why she was suspended for a second time.

Today feels like it’s a decade old and it’s barely 3pm. I wonder what’s being said now by the people who said in 2015 that there’d be checks & balances. The only balancing happening is from those of us who knew better trying to balance normalcy against this chaotic, violent bullshit.

Not could. Have. Fred Hampton.

Please do not argue with anyone with a low number of posts right now. I mean or ever but really not right now. I'm seeing some shenanigans.

If you are (understandably) too angry to exercise discretion in what you post then log off for a while.

This has saved me from numerous panic attacks. My meds are already (sometimes barely) keeping things manageable; I don’t need to make them work that much harder.

I think the South Americans should sue Patagonia for using Patagonia as a commercial brand. It could cause confusion.

Need to have a valve replaced in the baseboard heat, so I'm praying that the power doesn't go out since maintenance can't replace it until next week. The space heater is doing the Lord's work right now.

Not y’all out here eating Chef Cat

Philly people: how many incidents do we anticipate happening regarding a chair or trash can reserving a shoveled parking space? It didn't happen a lot when I was younger, but maybe transplants & newbies don't have home training.😭

I crack up every time I think of when my BFF and I called my serger "the Upton Sinclair clothes machine."

Recognition for SINNERS is a win for Black art. Provided the honkies don’t get out of control with backlash to it. It makes space for all Black storytelling in the mainstream. So I love it.

"Why didn't Black Americans save us all from fascism?" They've been trying! White Americans would just rather have all of this than solidarity! Maybe it's not Black Americans' job to save us from the hellish machine we created!

Y'all, I'm HOWLING at my child putting a bottle of Martinelli's sparkling blush on the shopping list. "For when it finally happens!" She was still up last night so I explained why I was still up when we had hope, and she started wishing right along with us.

Note to self: take that note from Tilly and the buttons and get rainbow thread for the serger so you never have to change the thread again. Not that I can't or hate changing it, but I change thread colors and it'd be fun to have a surprise inside the pouches.

This is exactly why you CAN'T let anyone off the hook. Including voters. They KNOW it's wrong and always knew it was wrong to vote for Trump and now we're gonna show em grace so they can vote for Vance or Rubio or whatever comes next? Foh

I don’t want Bluesky to have 400 million people? I don’t want it to be a universal platform? I don’t want Nazis and bots and brands and whatever the fuck else constantly harassing me? What if we just have a small to medium left leaning platform where we just chat and everyone else leaves us alone??

I’m going through my fabric stash and finding bags that just need cutting out and assembly! SMH 😩

@notalegalrecord.net hypes me up to make bags again, but who's the one ironing all the fabric, huh!?! 🤣

🗣️PLAY THE HITS

I believe we can defeat ICE by simply connecting people on the ground to Philadelphia high schoolers via audio link so they can be fed the most soul crushing putdowns the world has ever heard.

I guess my bag-making break is over. Finishing my Tamarack earlier has me wanting to sew all of the things. (That and @notalegalrecord.net hyping me up.) I went through my fabrics and even have some bags that just need to be finished/listed in the shop (burkehousecrafts.com)!

When you have a tab open with just to be sure. 🤣

This is the lining btw lol. The outer fabric is a dark blue, sort of mallard color.

I finally decided to sew the sleeves into this jacket and sew the side seams. I haven’t started back up making bags or coasters (letting Printify do some of that with stuff I design), but I do miss sewing.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.

We need another riverfront chair brawl.

LMFAO you know damn well it wasn't no mix-up!

Roses are red Nazis are lurking Beware of them here because

Same thing: If your shipment arrives in ULine shipping materials I automatically look for somewhere else to buy.

To Black folks: Mind the business that keeps you ALIVE.

The face I made reading the news of who's playing Kratos. I mean...he's not terrible, but as the quoted post says, it's the first time Kratos isn't going to be played by a Black man.

Took a few days off from asks, but currently standing at 375/600. If anyone can continue to help, I'd appreciate it. Do not overextend yourself though. Thank you

I found the missing sock! I can get the pattern up and published (hopefully) sometime this weekend.

These two episodes are proof that you don't have to give Adams the benefit of any doubt or grace or whatever.

Dilbert was running in newspapers as late as 2023 dawg. They dropped him en mass AFTER the racism, not before.

This. I’m sure all the academics & writers who are sounding the alarms over “pandemic learning loss”-the same ones who completely ignored all the death that surrounded kids & teachers and placed blamed all on school closures-will study the learning loss caused by ICE.

what do you mean the stranger things documentary shows them writing the script on a computer with 3 chat gpt tabs open

Instantly blocked AND reported.

First I see that Libby is saying they'll require books to be identified as having AI as part of the development. Now my email provider is partnering with some AI tool to help plan the day with calendars. Can we please stop putting the electricity & water-wasting thing!?!

no one asked for this. leave that bitch where he is. if he wanna perform and make music, let him do that shit in prison for the other prisoners. we won’t forgive him just bc they are entertainers. I don’t care about his legacy or talent. fuck teddy riley. fuck r. k*lly

That Teddy Riley has a strong affinity for losers, and that (among many other reasons) is why Babyface smoked him on Verzuz. He can go back to sketching his goatee in a mirror somewhere… #Loser
