I decided to skip the 3 rounds of border because I didn’t love it so I finished worth of unexpectedly at 9:45 last night. Photos to come!

What I’m working on – July 2026 Here’s an update on what I’m working on in July. Spoiler alert: It's art. I'm working on art. Because this month has ART RETREAT WEEK!!

“The house is on fire” claims one prominent, local arson kit retailer.

I’ve got 5.75 rounds left on this blanket and it’s the slowest crochet project of my whole entire crochet career.

I am completely and totally dead from this article

Finally settled into my Saturday afternoon. #CrochetArt #YarnLove #OnlyBeautifulThings #Crochet #MakingThings #ArtYear #ThinkingAboutMaking

1000x this

I’ve done a lot of hard but good mental and physical work the last two weeks and I’m proud of myself.

I found a Texas eyed click beetle today and it’s so cool. Why is the world just so delightful??

This is 100% correct. Make them eat resistance zines for breakfast lunch and dinner

I’m on it boss!

write things down cook food post flyers learn to use a copier learn to use a film camera learn to lay out a bulletin make zines and share them collect seeds and share them teach people what you know another world is possible! make it together, by hand

I’m shopping my notebook shelf and interviewing candidates for my next bullet journal. It sounds kinda ridiculous when I say it but I’ve been in my last bujo since November 2025 so it’s a bit of a commitment. 🤣 Wish me luck!!

Hey hey! It's newsletter time!! Get it hot off the press! pencilbooth.com/posts/5b3f35...

I think bankruptcy is a great option! Then they can all go get real jobs where they aren’t stealing other people’s work and charging for it! They can pull themselves up by their bootstraps and do some hard work to make something of themselves!!

I had a biscuit this morning and felt the same way.

66 years ago, on the 23rd of June 1960, Enovid was approved as the first combined oral contraceptive. Colloquially known as 'the pill', it had previously been cleared for menstrual disorders. The US was the first country to approve a contraceptive of this kind. #otd #history 🗃️

This has been a hard few days and I’m feeling pretty fried. Tell me something good that’s happened to you or that you’ve done recently.

Anyone still think this guy is smart?

Thanks I hate it

I hate this timeline

starting a new group to encourage us to submit short stories and shrug off the inevitable rejections, Yeet, Pray, Slough

Every time. I read character limit as word limit. Every dang time.

I’ve cracked the code of why more artists don’t submit their work to shows: paperwork.

A journal I made from eco dyed papers. I worked on it off and on for over a year, working through the theme of circles. Mixed media journal full of many techniques and crocheted/handmade items.

Wow, this 3,400 year-old ancient Egyptian paint box still contains its original pigments! Looks similar to a modern-day set! An inscription tells us it belonged to Amenemope, Vizier during the reign of Amenhotep II. 📷 Cleveland Museum of Art www.clevelandart.org/art/1914.680 #Archaeology

How things get recycled in my work I unpack what it means for me to recycle things in my work. There's a bunch of pictures and links to video flip throughs.

All my blog posts now just devolve into anti-AI screeds. I’m joking but also I’m really not. #ArtBlog #ArtBlogger #ThinkingAboutMaking #MakingThings

We need policy around AI used in mental health care like yesterday. I will die on this hill.

For my fellow crocheters 🧶

Watched “Project Hail Mary” again. And it was *better* the second time.

I have discovered a tarot deck "for men"--specifically tech bros--that uses AI-generated anime versions of startup founders as its major arcana and I recoiled so hard I think I broke a bone.
