Mine seems to have cleared up since having a growth taken off my ovary last year, I assume it must have been in the way!

When life gives you lemons throw them at someone you hate.

The convenience of instant bank transfer really doesn't help people think ahead. We used to tuck the taxi fare in our bras to make sure it didn't get spent on anything else

"Foreign-born Citizens" are actually just called citizens.

"Foreign-born voters" are just called voters

"non-citizen voters" (yes, this is a thing here in πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§) are just voters.

The pink woodwork in the hallway is kind of great! The one renovated bathroom is quite jarring :P

a pair of very rotund knitted mice, shaped as if sitting back and sniffing the air. One is grey, and has a lavender and blue coloured argyle jumper. The other is brown and is wearing a tutu with a crocheted lace skirt. Both have pink ears and noses

animals for #ShowMeyourKnits - two variations on Harold Fatmus by Wee County Yarns, both of whom work as doorstops at our house. I spent ages looking for the crochet lace pattern I used for the ballerina's skirt

I had a sore finger and I thought I'd poked myself with a needle at some point but turns out I picked up a splinter on Wednesday afternoon when I had to detatch a chunk of bramble from myself after I went off the path to take a photo of some lovely moss

Due to a terrible misreading of a hashtag, we prepared something to post tomorrow, then realised it was wrong. So today, let's celebrate #GalenTines Day. Here's what Galen of Pergamon (c129BCE-216BCE) had to say about the gynaecological anatomy which influenced physicians for over a millennium...

A rabbit in overalls and a goat in pants are sitting on the ground drawing pictures. The rabbit is saying β€œART POSES A THREAT TO CORPORATOLRATIC SYSTEMS BECAUSE A PURPOSE OF ART IS TO REMIND THE INDIVIDUAL OF THEIR INHERENT AUTONOMY.”, the goat adds β€œTHEIR HUMANITY.”

Since the #Olympics are on, let's repost a classic thread here: a brief history of the practice of "sex verification" in sport.

Content warning: This thread will mention anti-intersex discrimination, FGM practices and body shaming.

Take the time to do this folks. The proposed changes to ILR are shocking and cruel, which is made abundantly clear in the text of the public consultation linked below. Please lend your voice to try to mitigate the cruelty.

A ribbed sock in the process of being knit. It has marled stripes in pastel colours.

Reunited with the fourth needle of the set and 2/3 of the way to the leg length that's been requested. Tomorrow's commute should get me a good chunk more done 🧢

If you feel up to working in the round, hats are a good step up from scarves

Consider how difficult you are to bore as part of your decision. A sweater will have more interest to keep you engaged, but both are big projects that can take months. A baby sized sweater would let you practice the skills on a more finishable thing, or

So annoyed with myself, must have left a knitting needle in the sofa so I've come out with insufficient tools to keep working on Nugget's socks

it's not great when the consultation landing page continues the labour habit of just making things up where immigration rules are concerned. SETTLEMENT IS NOT GRANTED AUTOMATICALLY. absolute joke of a government

An embroidered straw hat, the first completed element on a pattern. The three dimensional crown is made in closed cup stitch and the brim is backstitched. The overall effect is pleasingly realistic

Oh well that is tremendously satisfying (pattern from wimperis embroidery)
