Seems like in the billion years since I’ve added a new pattern to Etsy they’ve changed the “new listing” set up. I could NOT figure out how to get it to realize I was listing a digital file and not a physical thing. No place to upload file and no way to remove shipping settings.

still not quite over the fact that i watched 15 year olds get sued for millions of dollars for downloading twelve songs and now we all have to accept AI slop because every tech company in the known universe decided that IP laws don't exist now that they're inconvenient for them

Me: People enjoy **caring about** fictional stories & characters. Not just consuming acceptable mid-ness. People enjoy caring about tv shows. Debating, arguing, Thinking, writing about them. Industry galaxy brains: I hear you saying you want an interchangeable array of ephemeral #content Me:

I say we keep that cage thing up and after we get back in power (inshallah) we do a kind of gladiator thing where they all have to fight each other while we eat popcorn and boo.

Also *person you’ve been friends with over three+ other social media sites and now are basically your family *fandom person who’s more popular than you and doesn’t follow you back because you don’t have a podcast or other fandom clout

Awesome thunder storm right now (strong but not strong enough to be dangerous). It’s been rainy for like weeks, but not stormy, just kind of blah and dreary. I love a good storm though.

If an ant climbs all the way to the top of a giant oak tree, is that like equivalent to a human going into outer space?

If you see this, post your blue art 💙

Can’t wait to tell the network execs “sorry, I can’t use AI on this project, I’m Catholic.”

I wish there were some way in Sims4 to give Sims middle names and nicknames. Like a Sim’s full legal name would be on the family tree and their tombstone and stuff, but in game notifications it would be the nickname or just the first name.

@yumenosix.bsky.social I just remembered part of my dream last night. I was in this huge antique and thrift store and lots of stuff happened, but at one point I was looking through all these children’s blankets and I found a DS9 one that I got and one with Pike on it that made me think of you.

Is this how to fix the US?

This might be too niche 👀

Well, I finished Outlander. I’m proud of myself for actually watching the last episode. 😂 Sometimes I just don’t watch the last episode of something so that in my mind I can pretend it’s not really over. 😂

Everyone else’s have been better, but here…

Sitting here thinking “Is Trump blowing off his son’s wedding because we’re invading Cuba or bombing Iran?” and this is just not a normal way to live.

It's okay. You're going to be all right. Deep breaths now. You can do this. 🖤💙😷🥄

I rewarded myself for going to my doctor’s appointment by buying myself cake, glittery gold nail polish, and a small avocado stuffed animal. 😂

I know you're sick of it, but the key to political messaging is repetition: A billion dollars is the socio-economic equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work to prevent the acquisition of the former with the same urgency and ruthlessness we use to prevent the acquisition of the latter.

Y’all, my fancy Bridgerton-era Sims has triplets! I’m not sure I’ve ever had that happen in a lifetime of playing The Sims. 😅 I used to get fairly frequent twins, but even that has been rare lately. But triplets. I was shocked.

Spock is judging me.

At the grocery and a guy just walked by in a very well loved (faded) t-shirt with a picture of Quark that said “Ladies Man.”

Last day to save on honey almond Moopsy! #bsnm #handmadesoap #startreklowerdecks

I got the Sims x Bridgerton stuff today and of course I decided none of my existing families were appropriate for the stuff, so I had to design all new Sims and a new house. I’m sure you’re shocked.

Uggg. Feels like everything is hopeless and terrible and will never be good again. But also sometimes the light makes really cool patterns when it hits the shower curtain in my tub. So I guess it’s okay.

One week later, and we finally got mail again. 🙃

I’m trying to design a logo for my online tutoring venture and I’m finding that I like too many different styles/aesthetics.

Been seeing these posted around downtown. Fun play on the real VA seal.

Somewhere in the last couple weeks I passed my 30,000th anti-ice whistle printed and shipped to organizers, neighbors, and friends around the country. the work has become second-nature at this point, the chirp of the printer a sound nobody in my house even notices. Get yours: linktr.ee/3Dwhistles

I don’t know if it was national, but at least here, the postal service had a food drive last Friday where people were supposed to leave some donations in a particular plastic bag sitting next to the mailbox.

The Sims is doing a Bridgerton crossover and I am sooo here for it. 👀

Eeee. ☺️ It’s so cute. I did have to use some of my own screws on one side because it wasn’t quite lining up right, but it worked and it’s adorable. Now to stitch up some bedding. Probably just for the top; I do actually need at least one shelf. 😂

Happy Mother's day to those who celebrate. 💚 🦎🦎🦎 💚

Y’all, I needed a small tabletop shelf and I found one that is shaped like a little bunkbedddd. It’s so cute but it has terrible reviews. I ordered it anyway because I couldn’t stop thinking about sewing little mattresses and pillows and using it for my smaller stuffed animals.

Moopsy!

Give me your favourite Non-Trek performance from a Star Trek actor: Wil Wheaton on Eureka Leonard Nimoy on Fringe

Ohh, I bet this is why he’s signed up to be on the cruise next Feb. 🧐🥳

Probably help if I added the shop link, huh. 🫠🖖🏻 www.gettheorion.com/store-1

Looking for a Pride project for this year? I just released some FREE butterfly designs over on my Patreon & Ko-Fi this weekend. I included 12 different flag designs, including color ramps for both a bold rainbow and a pastel rainbow! www.patreon.com/sirithre ko-fi.com/sirithre

So much to stitch, so little time.

You should have art. You deserve beautiful things. A lot of my alarm over the last 24 stems from concern that people sound like we can't have art in bad times. Bad times are when we need art.

I saw some graffiti around town today that said the same thing that those seashells said. Seems like the new court stuff about it is having a bit of a Streisand Effect.

Looks like my Etsy shop is at 98 total sales. I wonder if I can get that to 100 by the end of the week. 🧐 I know I talk mostly about the cross stitch patterns, but I also sell pinback buttons. There are the blackout poetry ones and pronoun badges in the same style. www.etsy.com/shop/SkyShip...

Truth

"Do not kill the part of you that is Cringe. Kill the part of you that cringes."

FUCKING GHOULS. This is common--many immigrants are tricked into believing they are here legally too. See: Georgia auto plants and TN visa fraud; Signal Int'l labor trafficking; Agriprocessors Inc in Iowa, etc.

It's time once again for my annual birthday sale! If you'd like to get yourself a new pattern you'll be saving money AND funding my birthday present. Which will probably be some plants for the garden, a coconut cream pie, and maybe a nice dinner. 💕 sirithre.etsy.com

I really hope that the US “Ghosts” does not end the same way the British “Ghosts” did. 😩 That was such a terrible, depressing end. The US version is generally much more upbeat, so fingers crossed.
