I specifically decided not to follow political accounts here, and I'm sticking to that. Screenshotting TFG and posting it here is going to force me to unfollow, if not block.

Thought about starting on this today, but I don't have the yarn size it calls for, or the color. I could try it in the bright white size 10 (thinner) thread, I guess?

When I broke my leg last year and went to the hospital, they asked what medications I was taking. "None." I don't think they believed me. I'm starting to think I'm the only person who isn't on medications.

Am wondering why people turn off the option to "Quote repost". If someone turns off reposts as I have, they don't see anything that's just straight reposted. Too many people just repost-repost-repost endlessly, thoughtlessly.
