Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you’ve seen: Robert Palmer Sting Quarterflash U2 Cowboy Junkies

The 2034 Salt Lake City Olympics picked the Cybertruck of fonts for their logo. Just…no.

Ok peeps: what are your favorite dad jokes? My dad is going in for a major surgery today, and I would like to help keep his spirits up by sending him jokes while he recovers

You are not going to convince people who were never going to vote for you by abusing the people who were….

This thread is worth reading for some excellent ideas! My contribution to the thread is sugared cranberries: so simple, so addictive. The way they pop in your mouth when you bite through the coating! Swoon. www.bunsenburnerbakery.com/two-ingredie...

My froggy protest hat pattern is live (and free!) on Ravelry #knitsky #showmeyourknits #knittersofbluesky www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

Froggy protest hat. I will publish this as a free pattern on Ravelry in the next week or so. It’s worsted weight, and a very quick knit! #showmeyourknits #knittersofbluesky

Looks like people do NOT like being fired, kidnapped, and starved

Trixie is a very good girl

Bucket of candy (peanut M&Ms) ready to go for tonight. Even though we haven’t had a single trick-or-treater in 25 years. Maybe this will be the year! 🤞 This was my Halloween bucket when I was a kid, so I guess it’s officially vintage

Trick or treat 🦇

It’s All Hallows Eve eve. Time to break out the fun knits. Yes there is a theme today, see if you can spot it

Money has influence #Blackout

I’m feeling number 3 today, for I am just a smol bean, adrift

You guys! I finished knitting my alien socks! Behold their glory

Bainbridge Island Strong!

We gathered for the photo and then marched through downtown Bainbridge Island to the ferry. It took 35 minutes to empty the park…there were a lot of people!

Protesters can now get free crochet lessons outside the ICE building.

I love this protest sign! #NoKings

I’m looking for good sign ideas for tomorrow’s #nokings rally. I’ve got one side figured out but need something for the reverse side. Any suggestions?

Pulling out the Halloween decorations and found this lil cutie. Fuck yeah! 🐸

Two weeks until Halloween. Time to break out the fuzzy bats and disco spiders. Because I’m classy.

Knitters, you can whip out a simple frog hat in time for Saturday’s march. All you need is some green and black worsted weight yarn, some stiff white paper card stock, and a couple black buttons.

This is a really well done—I hope it catches on: A silent roadside protest staged over the weekend in Westerville, Ohio, and posted to the Facebook page of the Westerville Progressive Alliance. www.youtube.com/shorts/TpZFS...

“I feel small but my voice is mighty.”

I think October 18 is going to be big. All the cool kids will be there, including the League of Women Voters! Encourage your friends and family to join in

They call it a Big Leaf Maple for a reason. #pnw

Yay, science!

You guys! The socks I’m knitting have ALIENS on them!!! #knittersofbluesky #knit

Paper clip worn as a small sign of resistance (an idea from WWII). I’m in!

I think it’s extra important to participate in National Voter Registration Day today. Relentlessly normal people helping old folks with QR codes so they can update their voting addresses really pushes back on the “fire-breathing leftie hater” narratives #nvrd

Tomorrow is National Voter Registration Day. I encourage you to reach out to your local voter groups (like the League of Women Voters) and see if you can help. Registering voters feels good! Most people are nice and appreciate seeing people who care out in their communities. It beats doomscrolling

Hopeful thread. My key takeaway? Be sand in the gears of fascism.

My sign at today’s Labor Day protest. Billionaires do, indeed, suck.

Most days I’m comfortable with middle-aged invisibility. But some days I feel fancy. I knit a scarf to coordinate with this exuberant skirt. (I question the inclusion of periwinkle, but I was knitting from stash.) Picture this worn with a black scoop neck tee and a fierce lip. #knitsky #knitting

Real generational difference between GenX and GenZ: fresh food availability year round. I suspect that most of GenZ does not have the cursed knowledge of the flavor and texture of canned peas. Or canned spinach 🤮 For real: I didn’t know what fresh spinach tasted like until my 20s. It’s good!

Damn i love begonias and hostas. They just do their thing all summer long, no fuss. #bloomscrolling

Any recommendations for other accounts like CPSC? I’m a sucker for quirky, fun, and goofy

Fucking nettles.

Post an unusual sign if you feel like it.

What are you knitting today? I’m obsessively working on these little socks. #knitsky #showmeyourknits

I never posted my finished shawl from this spring’s Lyrical Knits MKAL. It’s so big and bright! #knittersofbluesky

These are the stairs at my hotel. I think they are trying to kill me. Seriously, can YOU see where the next stair is? It’s like camouflage

My dad introduced me to so many good books! Tolkien, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy…. But I will always remember Dad taking me and my sister out of school for "doctors appointments" and going to see The Empire Strikes Back instead 🥰

I’m on the road today so can’t attend a protest. But I’m with everyone in spirit and wearing my hastily whipped up pin to show support for #nokings

The news is giving me hives. So it’s time for a #bloomscrolling break. Foxglove Of Unusual Size update: she’s now 8 feet tall. Plus the side spikes are blooming. Best part? It’s a volunteer. I didn’t plant it or fertilize. This queen did it all on her own #bloomsky

Foxglove Of Unusual Size. It’s about 7 1/2 feet tall. The bloom spike alone is over 3 feet #bloomsky

The news has been…a lot. So I’m taking a break and stabbing fabric with a needle, repeatedly. It helps somewhat. This is a birthday gift for my Dad. It will say “This is Fine”, each letter composed of tiny fucks. I’ll add some flames 🔥 too. #needlework #craftybitch

Second protest sign completed for tomorrow’s #HandsOff protest. You can barely see the smudged ink. #lefthandproblems

I’m going to my local protest tomorrow. Time to get noisy! #HandsOff
