So sorry to hear that. I really enjoyed your weekly newsletters and the updates on your life that you ended them with. Hope you find your feet soon and I look forward to continuing to read your thoughts on books.
Thank you for writing this book. At first I was disappointed that it was less obviously fantasy/sci fi than your other work. But by the end I was fully in love with the ideas and the characters. So beautiful and a welcome bit of hopefulness in a difficult time. I appreciate you.
Gray sock mended with a blanket stitch spiral of variegated gray and black yarn.
Latest mending project. Brought life back to a sock with a thinned heel.

Jeans with knee patches covered in embroidered stars.
Finished my 2nd jeans repair project. Now I’ll have to switch back to darning. Lots of socks with thin heels ready for practice!
I love that I finished this project and the only thing I bought was a bit of denim from my local craft reuse shop!!

I’m on a roll with #visiblemending Don’t recall why I thought jeans with pre-made holes were a good idea. But they’re so much better now!! Made with the help of my great, great, great grandmother’s embroidery hoop and not too much cat interference. #sashiko #shopless

Me too! I’m itching to learn sock darning next!
Just saw on IG that we were at the same event! I wondered that two libraries were having the same event on the same day. I’m so glad for remakery and our libraries hosting them!!
Thank you for speaking up. You are not alone.
Learned visible mending and saved a favorite pair of jeans. Perfect way to celebrate the economic blackout.

A man jumping, under the words "Make Time For Joy"
Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.
Today’s resistance - planning how to move retirement money away from US government funds.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, just pick one thing/organization/cause and start fighting. Try to do one thing each day, large or small. They are trying to shut us down, but we are stronger than that.
Very helpful, thank you. I appreciate that you called out not abandoning the most vulnerable.

I was today years old when I learned that One Night in Bangkok is about a chess tournament. And is just one song in an entire musical about chess. 😳
Realization of the day: Life is too short to drink bad tea.
