That fabric is great, too!
Absolutely. #WorkInProgress: Finish the quilt back for my Alice in Wonderland quilt, then send it to the Longarm Fairy.
Upcoming projects: a spring table runner, and a quilt block I can appliqué on my fave sweatshirt. Not a lot of sewing around here lately, and I miss it sorely.
As a constituent of yours, @kaine.senate.gov, I hope this story isn't true. You know better than to enable a war run by fools and murderers, the kind of people who help kill schoolgirls then lie about it.
Omg came here expressly for this comment!
How about first one, then when it's a HELL NAH, the other?
51 children dead. Each one a universe.
I wish students wouldn't use AI to "check their work" in Spanish, but I'm glad they're at least coming to me afterwards to find out why ChatGPT did them dirty. It gives me a chance to remind them that a tool that only returns one "correct" answer is likely to undermine, not build, their confidence.
Oh, I love this painting! The colors are so gorgeous and glowy!
Because unless you can look at the Good Guys ™️ in your own life and feel certain that they would have done better in the heat of the moment and in the thrill of victory and fame, this is about so, so much more. 6/6
I don't say this to defend anyone's actions. But before we pillory these individual hockey goobs for tacitly condoning a toxic message wrapped in congratulations from their sitting president, let's funnel some outrage towards a system that exacts a social cost for men who call out misogyny... 5/?
At a table with several "good guys" - the kind who vote for feminists, watch women's sports, champion women's equality - it fell to me, one of only two women at the table, to walk over and ask the dipshits to knock it off. 4/?
The sex they described was consensual, but that didn't make their language any less crude, objectifying or misogynistic. But I wasn't mad at the self-absorbed dipshits at the next table. I was mad at the guys at MY table, who exchanged uncomfortable glances and... that's it. That's all they did. 3/?
Bc here's the thing: I recognized that laugh in the locker room. It was the same one I heard years ago at a restaurant while dining with several of the men in my family, including my 5- and 7-year-old sons, as a dude at the next table luridly told his buddy about the cute bartender he banged. 2/?
On the one hand, it's great that we've spontaneously developed an allergy to the kind of casual misogyny we heard in the call between DJT and the U.S. men's hockey team. On the other hand, it feels like a lot to ask a bunch of hockey bros to be the vanguard of solidarity. Hot take in 3...2...1...
I really like this one! Haven't been sewing lately but I'm enjoying lurking and seeing what folks have been up to!
People can say it’s utopian or dreamy but it’s a fact that you have to believe new things are possible, fundamentally, in order to make them real. You have to make the choice to believe that more than this is possible & not be resigned to this being the way things have to be because it’s not at all.
To those asking why these voters were turned away rather than invited to vote provisional: According to Ballotpedia, only 39 states allow voters to cast a provisional ballot if they can't produce a valid ID. Even HAVA only requires provisional balloting in 47 states but not MN, ID or NH.
THAT IS WILLIAM H. MACY IN A DOG BODY
Wow.
It's so incongruous to hear MAGA talk about how much liberals love Bill Maher (see also Bill Clinton, George Soros, etc.) when, in fact, I suspect most folks out here would happily yeet him into the darkest recesses of space. A perception so comically distorted it's almost comforting
No thank you. I'm gonna respectfully decline this invitation to despair; I have a prior engagement
I respectfully decline this invitation to despair, as I have already made other plans
And with his glasses perched so precariously on his forehead.
From one Jessica to another, nuh-uh. We're not centering white women in this conversation. We can talk about that on a different day.
Dragging my 9- and 11-year-old sons thru their school valentine exchange, I realize how much Kid Me pored over the choice of valentine design and handwriting size to divine the deepest feelings of boys whose moms almost certainly harangued them to finish up already, it's time for soccer practice
Y'all Republicans did promise to drain the swamp, don't lose your courage now!
Sure, I go to the library for books, but also sometimes I go just to exist in a space that's welcoming, organized, comfortable, judgement-free, and run by knowledgeable, helpful, passionate people, because that energy is straight up medicinal
"Do you think you're going to get a pardon?" is such a "when did you stop beating your wife?" question and I'm here for it
I hate that phrase,"glommed on." As if members of Congress are just pushing to expose these disgusting vile abusers because it's trendy or expedient instead of deep down right. People like this can't imagine someone might enter public service to, you know, serve the public.
Tbh, as a non-sportsball kind of person, this was the first Superbowl I've watched in several decades and my assumption was they were all like this 🫣
