I do not wish to judge anyone but I’m going to, if you mod your car to make backfiring/gunshot type sounds as you move through intersections you are a huge asshole triply so in these times

Golllllyyyyyyy can’t wait to get home to my cats and my new sweater project I CAN’T WAIT

it’s too early, I do not want to go to work, it will be so late when I get home and I barely slept

I can't believe I still have to think of something to feed myself

nerves frayed, brain and body barely suppressing a scream time to cast on a sweater with such modifications as make it require PERFECT attention

now for something completely different (warning: jumpscare, there is a very spooky ghost in one of these photos)

everyone knows the real tough guy move is to put on your body armor and strap on your gun and mace and fill your tactical fanny pack with canisters of tear gas and going out to pick a fight with the newly potty trained that’s what makes you look brave and competent and powerful for sure

oooooooh picking the fleece apart a bit before coldsoaking was definitely the most effective change I made through this rescouring endeavor but also that may be because I did get MOST of the lanolin out in the original scour, just basically none of the dirt

If you’re cold, they’re cold. Let them in.

Golllllly I don’t think I’ve ever received so many messages at once as I have this afternoon whilst trying to pick apart wet dirty hair for scouring

I don't think we need to read anything into this orange maniac who keeps inventing new crimes and then yelling for everyone to come see his new crimes, what, what are you even gonna do except observe it's a crime but I would appreciate if he'd let me take a picture of him on the unlikely shelf

cold soak round 1 complete, bucket refilled and fiber pulled apart in its packets as each hit the water for cold soak round 2 dear reader, whoever was responsible for skirting this fleece??? didn't? (me, that jackass from the past)

I could swear I scoured this fleece years ago, it was partially fluffy and stuffed in mesh bags and didn’t even smell overmuch but this is the second dish soap soak today so if I did, I did it very very badly indeed

an older man in a suit with bow tie and coordinating pocket square at the bus stop asked if I was from Nebraska or Iowa maybe, I’m dressed like I must be from one of those places anyway that feels of a piece with the time a preteen said I dress like a Lego person so I can’t really muster offense

Wait hold up I need a new job URGENTLY the new house has PANTRY ELEVATOR I need to go there

I gotta,,, I gotta get outta here

done some spacklin’, done some moppin’, done some vacuumin’, now doin’ some Body Hort

It’s not yet 0715 and the power has gone out twice. Please send me home, you don’t want me here anyway.

Legitimately beginning to worry I might not be real, so thoroughly am I being ignored in this office.

Ah, so they’ve decided there’s no work for me but also no one wanted to tell me that.

I’m sorry this is so nonsense in light of every other fucking thing but we do all agree that it’s rude to show up half an hour early for an appointment, right? Like. I get it we all want my shit packed as quick as possible, knock off early, but you’re supposed to show at 8 and you come at 7:30, rude

do you think if we all work hard at it 2026 can be the year we give the AIs human psychosis

I don’t know if the little dyed wool nepps are going to stay put in the plying, they certainly do ping comically off the singles now and then it’s coming along right to the vision so far, though I’m not sure I nailed the color scheme for the yarn this will be companion to

hey quick question how uh how well did this go over when game of wool did it does anyone remember any Takes happening

hey mr mover, uh, “I’m not prepared to send you a video of our stuff today, I can do it tomorrow” is not an issue best resolved by just fucking coming over

Listen I know you’re all my friends and care about people and everything so I assume most of you are mostly masking but if not like my father-in-law has been hospitalized and intubated because flu A and pneumonia so if you haven’t been, maybe this is your sign to start look out for yourselves

if you got book money for Christmas and find yourself suddenly unable to think of a single book that can be purchased now I cannot recommend enough The Works of Vermin by @hironennes.bsky.social furious I’m nearly through it, I got no one to yell about it with, it is gross and wonderful

just thinkin how much less funny and wholesome this would’ve been if I’d fed it to the plagiarism machine

Shetland fleece is delayed in the mail but fear not, the textures arrived as scheduled and a new Big Sweater project is underway I am so sorry if my rolags are a trypophobia nightmare, you can definitely put your fingers in there and nothing bad will happen it actually rules

I want! To go home! I don’t want to be here!

Sorry I just think if you effusively praise an employee in their performance evaluations, and you’re understaffed and unable to hire, then maybe when that employee you effusively praise has to move for reasons beyond their control, you want to FIGHT to keep them on remotely?

Ohhhhhhh I am just a walking barely-contained scream today

……so I uh bought a Shetland fleece Which is WAY more responsible than buying 9-18 lbs of targhee fleece!!!!

Google I swear to god if you don’t stop fucking emailing me about my gemini account, which should not exist because I didn’t sign up for this shit and never would I am going to start unplugging cables until every goddamn chatbot the world over is silent

I’m gonna mix some tweedy bit into some natural corriedale and spin it up for a contrast color to make a big reversible brioche cardigan probably but got too find a pattern

it doesn’t really look like this

I did it I cut my very first steek all that’s left is to weave in like six more ends, block, and attach the buttons they’re sleeve ends, I gotta close up the gaps under the arms, I am going to give myself permission to save that for daylight

All the time I am sending a little email and then receiving a response that makes me double-check whether my little email was written in words, that are in English. All the time. Every day.

I’m trying to use working on tasks I need to accomplish to move to alleviate some of my anxiety but I’m going to be very honest with youse it ain’t reeeeeeally workin,,,,,

I fear I may be picking up stitches for the rest of my life

went on a real journey reading this skeet, thinking in the first clause, I know grocery prices are out of control but enlisting the dog to catch holiday dinner is well beyond my direst understanding but no the dog is a hobbyist rat-bringer, the rat is in the oven voluntarily, for their own purposes

joke is On You buddy I don’t really need that pattern right now

that’s sleeves time babeyyyyy

If you are intimidated by charts, Trillian would like you to know that you need to look at less of the chart than you think. In fact, reducing the amount of chart you are looking at to just three background stitches at the end of the colorwork can drop your stress and overwhelm by 100%

I have a lot of cynical, bitchy little takes about Game of Wool and like it's not Good but I am probably going to watch every episode to continue to develop cynical, bitchy little takes

fuckin SCAM how good a tubular bind-off looks and feels because it does take six thousand goddamn years

anyway I need to find like six 3/4" buttons, I do not really want any new plastic big box store type buttons show me some beautiful buttons of 18-20 mm? I need six but they do not need to match, coordinating is fine

love too have all the network drives go down when I have a huge tasking drop :)

welp came home to a sympathy card from the specialist vet, one breakfast snarf&barf into the bowl, and then like 4 more too-hungry tummy upset barves today marks one calendar month and I was already Not Good

god I really fuckin miss Twoflower
