New post: reviews and explorations of Ted Bundy: Falling for a Killer (2020) and No Man of God (2021) #truecrime #podcast www.theremightbecupcakes.com/ted-bundy-fa...

📣 New Podcast! "Victorian Christmas: A Strange Christmas Game: 105" on @Spreaker #christmas #horror #story #victorian

Goal: knit hat and gloves (and perhaps even sweater) similar to the ones worn by Zelda Adams in Where the Devil Roams. Alas, @adamsfamfilms.bsky.social, there are only artfully blurry and dark photos online. What’s a horror knitter to do? Bobbles, lace and cables ahoy in my future!

Someone has recreated the idea of 43Things, and I am having fun setting up my goals. opus.cafe/user?id=carla Check it out. Just in time for the new year.

More for Small Business Saturday: www.etsy.com/listing/4414... I love this hat, and how the colors worked together--it has a matching scarf, which is listed at a discount with it.

For Small Business Saturday: New Etsy listing: Hudson Bay striped adult-sized mittens knitted by me www.etsy.com/listing/4414... (I have a cowl and cabled hat to match already in store)

Little Free Library #214751: the charter is mapped, and the plan is to be live by next week! map.lflapp.org/JMZhUQbCXWb Nelson County Historical Society, Arrington, VA I'm so excited and proud. I may have to name 'er. #littlefreelibrary #booksky

My first Little Free Library has a home, at the Oakland Historical Museum in Nelson Co. VA, next to the Earl Hamner, Jr. reading statue. It's in his honor (and in my MIL's honor, she taught adult literacy here). John Boy Walton himself. Waiting for the steward no. to be placed on the map. #booksky

📣 New Podcast! "Five Star Fall: 102" on @Spreaker #autumn #books #fall #horror #lit #literature #new_year

I think my computer sticker says it all. "Never forget that Jesus was a brown-skinned healer, who empowered women, destroyed religious systems, loved the rejected, opposed our fascinations with power, and flipped the tables of oppression. His mission was neither lights, stages, nor influence."

Currently recording episode 102 of the #podcast. Check out the bookstore while you wait, please? Handling my MIL's bookladen estate. pangobooks.com/bookstore/ca...

Back in the groove. Preparing episode 102 of There Might Be Cupcakes Podcast and listening to NIN's soundtrack for TRON:Ares. Take that, Covid!

Finished another page in my Mary Shelley cross-stitch. I’m in love. Pattern: MrsPeggottyArts Etsy. #booktok

Finished A Disability History of the United States (bookshop.org/a/6560/97808...) by Kim E. Nielsen and I have Thoughts and Feelings about my identity as that person in the red power wheelchair. Nielsen really connected the intersection of racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia & ableism. #booksky

Finished all 1184 pages of Red Comet: The Short Life and Blazing Art of Sylvia Plath (bookshop.org/a/6560/97803...) by Heather Clark. I don't know quite what to do with myself now. I must take myself well in hand and dry my tears. Yes, I cried. #booksky More coherent thoughts to follow later.

www.theremightbecupcakes.com/website-upda... My Sims writers’ group, Mary Shelley, five-star reads for the year, and carlapettigrew.com setup, good stuff

Finished Four Lost Cities: A Secret History of the Urban Age bookshop.org/a/6560/97803... by Annalee Newitz, 4 stars, excellent listen. I have always loved anthropology. Applying the past to the present and the future. #booksky

If this bill passes, i lose both my income and my health insurance. I will have nothing as a disabled human being that cannot work. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, thank you. You are my hero.

People will die because of the all-out Republican assault on healthcare in America. The House Floor is now a crime scene.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has been talking for six hours and counting as Republicans prepare to vote for their tax cuts and spending bill. buff.ly/TwbsAhr

Sometimes I just need to put on a playlist of Lady Gaga remixes, work on my podcast & my second brain, and make everything else go away. It’s all I can do. I have fought the good fight. ♿ Now I shut it all out so I don’t shut down. Just for now. Thank you for fighting for me & each other.

Listening to Surrender, New York by Caleb Carr, an extension of The Alienist universe, and truly enjoying it…except for the casual domestic violence. So. Much. Hitting. Perhaps it’s because I am autistic, but I am not reading being struck by someone’s cane as affectionate horseplay… #booksky
