This is Chocolate. He is supposed to be reffing the game, but it got a little boring, so he took audience entertainment into his own paws. 14/10 (TT: esmee_toledo)

France has joined Germany in cancelling their Palantir contracts, becoming the 2nd country in as many weeks to do so — the UK appears poised to follow suit AOC: “Immediately investigate Palantir — (Thiel’s) secretive data mining company that has weaponized information against immigrant communities”

Hi, it was my job today to make this.

New podcast. ➡️👂🏼👂🏾👂🏿⬅️ podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...

You can pry my tech-bro-wannabe schadenfreude from my cold fucking hands. 😂

Not disappointed or surprised to see Nick Bilton go down in flames over this CBS drama. He was always such a tech hanger-on. The type to eavesdrop on startup kids at a coffee place and write about it. Oh wait. 😂😂😂 Scott Pelley said his experience was slender… 😂😂🤣

Vermont’s governor is so jealous he just vetoed a bill to prohibit these data centers from being built.

Here. Have a goofy poodle sitting awkwardly.

On the one hand I really miss having tracker guide my to-do list. Otoh…I certainly don’t miss that team’s misogyny or the trauma from working there. I can barely look at Trello. It all feels like the scene of a crime. So…spreadsheets it is.

I was feeling very silly while walking my very silly dog today.

Totally getting Chris to make me cookies while I watch the Kylie Minogue documentary. “You have to open the bag, dump it in the bowl…” I should be so lucky in love. 😂

25 years. This was taken 2003-ish with my mom’s Pentax at Petrified Forest in Arizona. No one understood my obsession with this camera. It’s the first of many, many selfies where we are kissing.

Alabama Legislature is meeting on redistricting; we are under a tornado watch, and it’s flooding in the building. These metaphors are too on the nose.

I am not a big sock knitter, but I LOVE following Sock Madness! 🧦🤪 Socks with beads?! You bet! Socks with the funkiest construction ever!? But of course!! www.ravelry.com/patterns/sou... #knitsky #knitting

Tulips!!

I’m supposed to come up with trendy swag ideas. So far: - branded hormone patch - branded readers Who gave me this job. 😑

Finished knitting one sock in time to send it to mom for Mother’s Day. I’m going to need a ball room.

1.5 more workdays until vacation.

Yesterday

Seems like a great opportunity to get photos of their faces since they like hiding so much. 📸

And here’s Feodor. He stole my heart.

Here are some photos of my piece “Melting” in the local fiber art exhibit. Their call for art went up right as I finished the #melttheice hat you see in the photo. I’m not… #knitting #knitsky #showmeyourknits

People keep saying “oh so you want OPEN BORDERS” as some kind of gotcha and like. Yeah. When I was a kid you could just drive into Canada. On accident, even. It was great, and I think we should do that instead of kidnapping children. Normalize being normal instead of being kidnapping weirdos

Getting another employer onto Confluence reminds me of getting the Pivotal Tracker team onto a wiki. They were competitors with Atlassian and gave me so much shit because I had an Atlassian branded bag I would use to bring my lunch to work. They did NOT go with Confluence. Guess we know who won.

Now that my paycheck is a non-profit/not-tech/not-Bay-Area paycheck, paying taxes is a struggle each year. This is utterly disgusting. Where is my pitchfork. open.substack.com/pub/opentheb...

wait. wait. everyone hold on. i've solved it

The fucking gall of their excuse. “At a Wednesday night press conference, local police agencies insisted that they were not assisting ICE and their action on Dorset Street was meant to protect protestors' First Amendment rights. They said they did not use force.” www.mynbc5.com/article/sout...

Yarnbomb alert!!! www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/a... #knitting #knitsky #justknitting

The people of Minnesota have taken ti forming musical traffic jams to make ICE live as inconveniently as possible ICE will lose to the will of We The People

Still getting over my “Happy Women’s Day” hangover. Is it just me or did it seem especially performative and gas-light-y this year?

Not a fan of the word “e-meet.”

Welp. Lester is gone from NBC and MS whatever got rid of Joy Reid. I’m getting rid of cable altogether. Currently I watch DemocracyNow and a smattering of other journalists. Looking for news/journalist recs from mutuals.

This is your mental health boop for today.

A few flurries.

Ok, I admit it. I made the sleeves of my sweater too short. 🤷🏻‍♀️ BUT it’s a great excuse to make some wristies while I catch up on Outlander. #knitsky #knitting #showmeyourknits

Vermont sending a care package to Minnesota in the form of our representative, Becca Balint

Anyone else feeling like a news zombie? I try not to look, am horrified, go back to work feeling my life-force drained. Worried about MN. Pretty sure this will be happening everywhere soon. Maybe, I’ll knit myself a balaclava for protests. Ugh.

Hi. Real life is still happening. This is your sign to get some fresh air.

He kidnapped the president of Venezuela for them And oil companies are like Meh

It’s tomorrow! If you are having feelings about the world, try sketching them out. Show someone or don’t. Getting it down on the page is what matters!!

A bunch of y'all just came back from holiday parties and family dinners with these people, knowing full well the job they had just taken. And you giggled with them & passed the potato salad with raisins & said nothing. You can either carry that shame until it eats you alive or step up & do better.

There’s another emergency rally in NYC this morning—9am Foley Square. Kristi Noem is going to NYC today to hold a press conference. New Yorkers are showing up in mass to tell her to get the f*ck out. Join @handsoffnyc.bsky.social in the streets. It’s time to get loud and stay loud.

Take a quick snow break. Breathe. Get back to it.

Ugh. Getting a bunch of password reset notices. Glad I use a password manager. Great start to the new year. 👏🏼😱

My holiday project: making ornaments for my small apartment Solstice tree. All from @mochimochiland.bsky.social Excited for next year’s Solstice tree. #knitsky #knitting #showmeyourknits

One of us fell asleep during 2/3 of Stranger Things. Happy Jesus-worshipper-day. I’m here for the gifts and the food.

Plz enjoy my Vermont snow bear™️ sliding down the mountain of parking lot snow.

Still thanking myself for these patternless arm warmers that are much better as leg warmers. Dog only likes them if they are outside. With him. On a walk. Like right now. 💁🏻‍♀️🐕🙄 #showmeyourknits #knitting #knitsky
