We are officially doing too much. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/03/u...

My nephew was in Dubai with his master’s program 2 weeks ago. I’m so relieved that he made it home safely.

What are words.

That’s a hard NO. Now that it’s too late, he’s saying it’s dire they leave and begging for assistance from airlines while also saying that we’re going to continue to bomb which will keep airspace closed, which HE JUST SAID is why they cannot leave?!?!?! I feel like I’m losing my damn mind.

whaddya mean I almost missed lace week!? 🤍 I just boxed up my fine lace pieces until I find a good way to store them for use, but I keep all my pi pieces and blankets in an open cabinet for easy access when it’s chilly, and so that I can look at them. They make me happy. #ShowMeYourKnits #Maker 🧶

Took 3 solid days, but: taxes filed ✔️ (Maddening to have that ytd fed tax figure staring you in the face, knowing what it’s funding 😡) My reward is spending the rest of the day goofing off. Starting a book and a puzzle, finishing my shawl. Six rows and a bind-off and she’ll be ready to block. 🥳 🧶

… as long as it takes to do what ???

huh, you don’t say…

Bloodthirsty megalomaniacs. Cool cool.

The most reckless, most corrupt, most ignorant, most mentally and morally unfit, most badly advised, least inclined to take advice president in our history is also the most inclined to use military force at home and abroad. And he’s the one we have now. He’s the biggest threat we and the world face.

oh, I know this one - pick me 🙋🏻‍♀️

Ask him for names. Even a single name. You don’t even need to push back on his erratic messaging - just ask for details of whatever new lie he’s floating. He won’t be able to answer because it’s all just ad lib bullshit. There’s a reason our leaders have been awol today - this war is unjustifiable.

For the 2026 primary elections, NPR has collected deadlines and information on how to register to vote — online, in person or by mail — in every U.S. state and territory.

Exhibit eleventy billion that he’s utterly incapable of meeting the moment, exhibiting even an infinitesimal amount of empathy, or remotely resembling a normal human being. And this was taped. Events warrant a live response but his handlers know they can’t let that happen because he’s batshit crazy.

A pedophile. An adjudicated rapist. A convicted felon. A pathological liar. A sociopath. A malignant narcissist. A sadist. A racist. A fascist. A traitor. An insurrectionist. A war-monger. A demagogue. A despot. An enemy of the Constitution. An American nightmare.

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

I’m so tired of starting every day in tears. I’m so tired of knowing my money paid for this. I’m so tired of being told I’m too sensitive for caring that we’re treating human beings like insignificant expendable garbage. I’m so tired.

I didn’t know my grandparents well due to proximity but I remember when I was in grade school my grandma came to visit and I wanted to help make dinner. My mom said no (not uncommon) - grandma overrode the veto. I decimated a cucumber trying to peel it… 1/

For mental health reasons, trying to set limits on how much social media I consume in one sitting. Sometimes my body’s reaction to something so heinous makes the decision for me. Uncontrollably shaking after reading this - how do people just keep scrolling? I am not well. We are so broken.

I cannot wait until November. It’s their Last Stand and while I think we’ll be stunned at the inevitable shenanigans they’re plotting, I think attempting to take away our right to vote will be their undoing. Especially with Marc and team on our side.

Sad on multiple levels. Nostalgia for me - I love my books and have been stubborn about switching to an electronic reader. Worry more that people have lost interest in anything that engages the brain more than a few seconds at a time.

Cal came for chili night ⚾️ 👩🏻‍🍳 🌶️

State of the union is infinitely more fucked up than it was yesterday. Gobsmacked.

everything’s fine

Just me or does your blood run cold reading things like this?

Lots of preemptive damage control happening right now. Tonight’s gonna be a shitshow.

I finished something 🙌🏻 One would think after 20 years I could come up with a better way of photographing big lace pieces. Binder clips for the win 🤍 #ShowMeYourKnits #Maker #Knit 🧶 (project deets in +ALT)

History so recent the ink’s not dry yet, but lest we forget ⬇️ They are 100% certain they will not win free and fair elections going forward.

I tried to enjoy hockey w/out politics tinging the game (hard when so many players don’t hedge their adoration of potus) but after the post-game videos and now the phone call… Miss the days where everything wasn’t colored by politics. Or maybe it’s always been this way & I wasn’t paying attention.

sometimes you just have to laugh imagine getting up and doing this shtick every day for an entire decade 🙄

because of course 🙄

had a slice with my coffee this morning & it’s as good as anything I’ve ever had from a bakery - who knew you could make something this tasty from something so gnarled & dirty looking 🤍

Thirty-nine. One was too many.

💔 Part of the reckoning on the other side of all this needs to be acknowledging every single human being who needlessly suffered and died as a result of this administration’s cruelty. The slow drip of cases gets zero attention by national media. Their stories, names, faces should never be forgotten.

If you've been watching the ongoing Epstein files unraveling across Europe, note that the dominoes didn't start falling until one fell. And then another. Finally, the momentum in societies shifted. It will be the same within this administration. They have to remain united. Lest one domino fall.

A lot of people, including me, were wondering how an IRB could ever approve this study. The answer is that no IRB did. The person who “signed off” on approval from the only ethics board that reviewed it had resigned three years earlier. His signature was used without his knowledge.

finally found something fancy to do with my winter csa celeriac 👩🏻‍🍳 - dang good Coconut Celery Root Tea Cake with Coconut Glaze and Toasted Coconut 🥥

shaking too many hands, kissing too many babies… anyone know a good makeup artist?

As the unfit President considers how to lash out that he can't get his way, what with an entire invading force in the Middle East, this was one of the most interesting bits from the oral argument. www.supremecourt.gov/oral_argumen...

In the concentration camp universe, this is what's known as a filtration camp. A government preemptively takes a whole class of people to interrogate and detain extrajudicially in order to inflict duress on them while arbitrarily assessing their (supposed) culpability.

Dark. Evil. Perfect framing.

Sigh… They cold-called me last spring and out of frustration I abruptly barked NO at the rep (completely out of character). Caught her off guard & left her speechless for a few secs but still calling/sending endless emails (despite opting out). Love baseball, love the M’s - hate the aggressive sales

March 27, 1936: Portraits of the Führer are raised on official buildings across Berlin. This one at the Potsdamer Railway Station reads "Freedom - Peace"

This is the eighth death in ICE custody in the last seven weeks.
