Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

Thanks to my friend Harriet for pointing out that the women went to Christ's tomb and saw he was not there, the angels showed up to describe what happened, & the women then told the apostles, who dismissed them. A Biblical account of women not being believed.

Same, medieval dudes. Same.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

Took a break from all the fiber arts, weaving and spinning yesterday to get out into the wilds of Philadelphia for some fresh air! I had a beautiful hike out in the Wissahickon on Forbidden Drive.

There’s something happening in this country.

Rambouillet and merino batt knit into a sample. I love it but I think I'm going to do it again, shift the color and add some silk. #handspinning #handspun #knitting #artbatt

I'm testing some handspun yarn for knitting a sweater. This is a batt I made from 50% Merino and 50% Rambouillet with some colors added in from mixed varieties. I hope to three ply it and knit it into a swatch and see if it's something I like! #handspinning #knitting

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Weaving some handspun yarn into scarves. Loving this so far!!

Finally finished skeining some handspun. Now to figure out what to make!

I've been teaching floor Loom weaving for many years but I've decided to take it to a one on one basis. Come in and weave a towel. Or learn as much as you want! If you're in the Philadelphia,PA area and interested go to my website and fill out a form. Www.meliorisms.com

And there it is — next shoe dropping. Steal the bank, control the military and then silence the media

A techie friend who knows the players including Elon just sent this to me:

There is still beauty in this world

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Plying these 3 into one and I may have a sweater quantity! Thanks Little fiber Company and Desert Panda for the beautiful fiber! #spinning #spinningfiber #3plyyarn #majacraft

Playing around with turned twill. Seeing what pedals do what! I'm loving it so far. #weaving #fiberarts #floorloomweaving

Can we all be brutally honest? No one wants a Patrick Mahomes 3-peat. It’s the Eagles season to win it all!

Reddit's r/FedNews is on fire.

We’re about to begin. Join our strategy call to fight back against Trump’s illegal power grab and MAGA’s quiet coup.

The finished cushions! They fit so nicely and I didn't realize how easy it is to work with vinyl. #sewing #sewingwithvinyl #windowcushions

1,100 EPA employees have been notified of imminent termination.

It’s like that moment in Titanic when the ship is bobbing vertically and Jack warns Rose to hold on because when it sinks it’s going to suck everything down with it or is that just me

Some Spinning results my friend and I started. We started by carding some batts and mixing different fibers to see what would happen, then we're both going to spin them up, weave them and compare! I hope you have a fiber friend(s) to help get you through the next few years.

By erasing it, or trying to, they make it more memorable. The Internet is written in indelible ink.

I made this silk and wool capelet last year and have been holding onto it for some reason! It's now posted in my Shop, I'm not sure where the link is on this app. It's handspun, hand woven, and hand sewn by me in Philadelphia! #handspun #handwoven #sewing #weaving #batmancape

My niece asked me to make some cushions for her window seat."Sure, what the heck? I'll try anything once." I used to make cushions but never worked with vinyl. It's a different animal but it all turned out. #sewing #learnsomethingnew

I've been spinning some batts my friend and I made and I'm loving how they look in the morning light. I hope to have most of these filled in the next week! #supportedspindle #spinning #handspinning

There are so many things I would ban before TikTok, including SUVs and assault weapons…

Your morning calm. Presented by #handspinning on my #majacraft #luna spinning wheel. Ahhhhhh...
