It's never too early to celebrate mathematics. And pi day is a good excuse to eat delicious circles.

ta'mey Dun! bommey Dun! (Great Deeds! Great Songs!), by Klingon Pop Warrior 5 track album

I admit I sometimes play pop songs in Klingon in the kitchen when I need a mood boost. If the kiddos can recognize swears in Klingon they are already cooler than I am.

I was very careful to play an English version that didn't mention killing people. But I have to admit I have no idea what the Italian version exact words were. Luckily no one in that class speaks Italian.

Fun with intarsia. While this may look like a chaotic mess of 9 different strands of yarn it is actually controlled chaos. This is what I get for volunteering for the Evil test knit.

One of the 2 year olds in my class today requested we play bella ciao during music... But got upset when we couldn't find the version he had heard at home. Love your taste kiddo but there are a million versions of this song.

CelticMusicPodcast.com by @celtfather.bsky.social is amazing this week. All songs of protest, by some fantastic artists. Music is the viral messaging of the past and we've been fed up with this BS for a long time.

Slovenia’s Shrovetide tradition celebrates Carnival with monsters, masks, and parades An ancient tradition was almost lost to history. Then the locals stepped in.

We talk a lot about meeting basic needs, and YES, that's critical, but it's not the only thing necessary for humans to thrive. We fight for roses, too.

I'm eating gf Cheetos. Close enough to dinner.

Bridge, by Various 21 track album

bridgealbum.bandcamp.com/album/bridge
Absolutely loving this album it's been a difficult week and I'm tired and I've cried so much. Love Sunnie Larson's Lullaby for a weary world, Tim Griffin's Lucy on the Line, and Margaret Davis's You gotta be kind.

Everytime it comes up on the menu it feels like a marathon. Hand breaded chicken nuggets for 100 kids with 3 alergen alternatives all properly labeled, out on tie and kept at the proper temp. Crank up the Irish jigs and keep moving.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Looks awesome. Knit at a speed you feel comfortable with because you are creating a work of art. It's hard to get the comparison with mass produced machine knits out of our heads but creating stuff by hand is a rebellion of an artist.

Knitting a Norwegian hat pattern. I don't feel guilty to vent negative emotions when I knit this because we are all in the same crazy unprecedented times. If you need a hat let me know they will be on my needles for quite a while.

Lion brand Mandala Gnome is bright. If you are looking for acrylic. If you are looking for wool sunshine and lollipops by local dyer at Stranded by the Sea is amazing.

I really recommend playing boardgames with others. Especially if you enjoy heated conversation about whether the word "optional" means an action is required or can be opted out of. Let's really dig into the nuances of adjectives as a concept.

So I made arepas for game day and had too much filling so I made chicken quesadillas to use up the filling. Cornmeal, chicken and cheese 2 ways. Now if my fellow gamers could show up on time...

We need to endure right now not sprint. Take care of yourself and you will be capable of more. I keep telling myself this and it keeps feeling like I'm not doing enough.

Pro tip from a professional chef: burners work better when you turn them on. I put the diced apples on the stove yesterday and when I went to serve them, they were still raw.
Today I said out loud I am turning the burner on for the apples as I turned it on. But the corn was sitting on a cold burner.

Needing some color in a dark world the spring flowers are up early in Kenmore. New this year... Snails!

This song honors those sacrificed for our country. Usually that’s for our military. But today, we honor Renee Good, Alex Pretti and 30+ individuals who’ve been murdered by trump’s gestapo ICE. Remember these American heroes when you vote this fall. #fuckice #trump #inhonorof #sacrifice #fyp

#Minnesota #MattMoberg #interfaith #protestsong #folk #songwriter I wept to read the Timberwolves' Chaplain, Matt Moberg's, statement today. Then I rewrote it into song-shape, to be SUNG (I hope to have tune in a day or 2). If of use to my friends in the US or beyond, with all love please use it 1/5

A dark navy graphic with a multicolored patterned border along all four edges. At the top, large gold-outlined text reads, “Happy Kwanzaa,” with smaller cream-colored text below that says, “to all who celebrate!” Gold star shapes are scattered across the middle of the image. Near the bottom center, a kinara holds seven lit candles: three red candles on the left, one black candle in the center, and three green candles on the right, resting on a stylized base with horizontal gold lines. In the lower left corner is the UUA flaming chalice logo with the words “Unitarian Universalist Association.” In the lower right corner, text reads “http://UUA.org .” Along the left edge, vertical text reads, “Illustration by ooceey, Pixabay.”

For all who celebrate Kwanzaa, we offer our warmest wishes for these days.

May this time be rich with reflection and shared joy, and shaped by the creativity, resilience, and deep sense of community that Kwanzaa lifts up.
