Entered the regular TSA line at the same time as a guy who entered the precheck line. I'm walking to my gate and still waiting at security. Imagine paying the TSA microtransaction for a worse travel experience. You absolute rube

The rugby team was going to throw away an old canopy tent because the frame was broken. I rescued it out of the trash and starting making it into backpacks, duffel bags, and fanny packs. It's not hoarding if I actually use the trash! #reuse

Just had a bus driver get mad at me for signalling for their bus to stop..... "Why are you putting your hand out into the street when the bus is coming??" Um....to signal for you to stop because you didn't put on a turn signal to indicate that you were stopping? Do people not signal for the bus?

Are the flyers .......good?!

Anyway, I finished another quilt top yesterday. It's nothing special, just a way to burn through triangles from my big houndstooth quilt. Always feels nice to do a scraps/no pattern quilt after a big, complicated pattern quilt. No thoughts or decisions to make. #quilt #quilting

In 2017, I was taking timid peeks out of the closet when I joined an inclusive rugby team under the cloak of "allyship". I let myself enter queer spaces, formed friendships and bonds with my teammates, and eventually found myself in Amsterdam at the "gay rugby world cup" in 2018 with my team (1/3)

Shame to see the Penguins resorting to their typical goon hockey when faced with a superior opponent. I guess when you don't have the skill you have to resort to dirty play. Tut tut.

I'm in an irrational bad mood and fighting the urge to reply "WHO CARES" to every post on Instagram and every text in every group chat. Just one of those days I guess.

Japanese sci-fi: two robots in space, yearning American sci-fi: man gets the author's beliefs on polygamy confirmed by the aliens of ramalama IV french sci-fi: two horny bounty hunters visit the Galaxy of Breasts British sci-fi: nuclear war. Everyone dead. America's fault

Do you guys dare me to take my enjoyment of sewing and making miniature things to start making high quality couture gowns for Barbie?

Because we have a finite amount of space in this apartment and I have an infinite well of anti-anxiety crafting energy, I have been bullied by my partner into putting some of my quilts online to sell. Anyway, it feels weird, but here it is: www.etsy.com/shop/PhilsMa... #quilting #quilts

Just passed the TV to point at the screen and say "I was there yesterday". Am I an Angeleno now?

Serious dramedy Netflix reboot of Sister Act starring Cynthia Erivo. Is that anything?

Ok but "Balsamic Homosexual" is a good name

Literally spent an hour this morning gossiping with my (all female office) coworkers about their baby daddies and exes while nodding sagely and saying "Yeah, men are trash"

Shout-out to the ladies at work who guessed my age as "27 or 28? Definitely late 20s....."

The people will look up and shout "proofread your posts" and I'll whisper "no"

Just started my clinical externship in southeast LA and I'm reeeeeeally wish I studied Spanish more since my two years of high school spanish 20 years ago......

Look at my senator dawg. Crowing about $6m for community projects as his only post of the day.....

Due to the stacks of quilts that are collecting on our shelves, I'm being "encouraged" by my partner to open an Etsy shop and list them. Currently stuck at the "Name your Shop" page.

Terrible news everyone: someone gave me a mesh shirt and I think it looks good on me.

I am against all data collection unless it has the ability to accurately predict what Enya song to play at any point in time.

Creative inspiration is hitting so good right now, as it always does during the Welcome track on the Homecoming Live Album

When the edible is kicking in but I haven't settled on a vibes playlist for my craft project yet.

If I ever have a big wedding reception with dancing, I will insist that everyone arrives having memorized the chorus dance break from the "Murder on the Dancefloor" music video. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I wanted to do a houndstooth study for this quilt but also incorporate my classic "rainbow colors + black&white" Ending up making an 8'x8.5' quilt .......it might be too big #quilting #quilt

I know we shouldn't stan politicians and that you need to continue to hold them to account and call them out when they miss the mark....... But I don't live in NYC so I'm allowed to be obsessed with Zohran.

Took the console apart to install a new receiver and backup camera....only to realize I ordered the wrong wiring harness......PUT IT ALL BACK TOGETHER AND TRY AGAIN NEXT WEEK

Typically I get hyper focused on a quilt project and burn out a little. This time I limited myself to making one 12" block at a time. "Rainbow colors and black and white" is my go-to and I think this is my 5th quilt that uses that palette. #quilting Each block is quilted with a different pattern.

I made this border last year and hated it on the original quilt. .so I cut it off and reworked it. Finished it last week on my mom's long arm.

Flying into LAX and christ the APM cannot open soon enough. These delays are an absolute embarrassment....... New metro station looks good though!

Get yourself a mom with a big expensive long arm machine for quilting

Can we bully them on the same level we did with first draft Sonic?

My weekend: rugby on Saturday, working on a quilt on Sunday

Maggie Smith deserves all the plaudits and more for her remarkable acting. But let's not forget one of her greatest hits, giving us Toby Stevens to look at.

Update: I fucked up my knee last weekend (it'll probably be fine) but I played well so I still have friends.

Back in 2021, I had to spend 2 weeks in quarantine isolation in a hotel in New Zealand. They brought me 3 meals a day plus an afternoon tea snack. I wasn't allowed to leave my room but I had some friends drop off a sewing machine and I made a quilt and watched tv. Best two weeks of my life tbh

Bought ARC Raiders on a whim and then realized I don't know anyone else who plays it and it seems like it would really benefit from having a crew.

Being gay on bluesky is wild because I'll see like, 10 posts in a row about war, epstein files, and the most terrible truths of modern society, and then a naked stranger will appear before its back to the horrors.

Can't believe they went with grass, fire, water starters AGAIN for pokemon. smdh

This shirt is about how I take the metro to school every week. That's all that it's about. Thank you @metrolosangeles.bsky.social shop.metro.net/products/rid...

Surface parking lots should be aggressively taxed in dense downtowns. It should not be more lucrative to own a parking lot that subsidizes suburban commuters than to build housing that revitalizes the city core.

Oops! Accidentally made up some work for myself to do that no one asked for and now I'm stressed out about not being productive enough on it!

Guys only want one thing, and it's to live in Habitat 67

This guy gets it.

My take? TSA pre check sucks shit. The government adding micro transactions to the already bullshit security theater of air travel is bad!

I'd rather have a silver medal and free healthcare tbh

2026: Hoping that the pedophile monarch will give evidence to take down the pedophile autocrat.
