Came here to say basically the same. I want that necklace. My inner 7 year old is soooo envious of those charms.

WTF is she talking about "greater comfort"? Is it really comforting to parents that some children are not protected? If you are comforted that not every student can feel safe and equal at school gtfo my timeline. thnx.

When you have a chronic condition, just living is hard work and perseverance.

People with ADHD and autism are often susceptible to "reactive abuse."
This is when someone provokes you and pushes you to your limits. When you finally explode and fight back, they accuse you of being the abusive one.

At the start of Hispanic Heritage month, I feel like this poem by Cesar A. Cruz is more relevant now, than ever before. We can do so much better. Until then may 'art comfort the disturbed, and disturb the comfortable'. unclefishbits.com/a-1997-poem-...

I don't get it. Not the price part. I mean the part where hourly wage doesn't seem to matter. These are clearly mass produced, machine made, but if I were to hand knit it, that amount of bulky yarn costs quite a bit and it takes hours and hours to make. Isn't a handmade object worth an hourly wage?

That is interesting. Plain weave examples have been found and I know I'd rather wear a cloth fabric next to skin than tanned leather so I can't imagine they didn't wear it, but yeah, record of it and what seem very scarce. Oral traditions have not been handled well.

They were weaving other plant fibers for thousands of years, as well as weaving animal fibers, baskets, mats and other things, not just cloth fabric. Looms and fabrics don't usually hold up well. Backstrap looms were used with cotton in South America and animal wool was used in the northern tribes.

I'm just here because I thought somebody was talking to me. 🤓 I'm not sure you can say WEAVING and LOOM and SPACE like that in a sentence without attracting weirdos like me. Hi, I'm attracted, like spooky action at a distance that is shrinking. *stands too close and looks around for weaving supplies

idk, is that what grief is? Even knowing the inevitable, doesn't mean we can't collectively share loss or memories. I think it's a perfectly sane reaction whether people are young or old. They touched lives, they are gone. We feel it and post about it.

Is it possible to be so iconic and beloved that you become, in some institutional kind of way, underrated? That's Tim Curry. A guy who did every kind of gig as well as era-defining parts. A consummate jobbing actor who nonetheless pushed buttons and redefined masculinity for decades.

Hey, guys, when the librarians get pissed about the destruction of books, it’s time to put those listening ears on. Because we are very comfortable with the idea that books are tools that can be retired. What’s happening right now is not that.
