#KnitSky I keep seeing (and loving!) so many of your gorgeous creations on here that I think I want to give knitting a try myself :) Does anyone have good resources to recommend for an absolute beginner?

I think about this poem all the time
Hope Is Not a Bird, Emily, It's a Sewer Rat
by Caitlin Seida
Hope is not the thing with feathers
That comes home to roost
When you need it most.
Hope is an ugly thing
With teeth and claws and
Patchy fur that's seen some shit.
It's what thrives in the discards
And survives in the ugliest parts of our world, Able to find a way to go on When nothing else can even find a way in.
It's the gritty, nasty little carrier of such diseases as optimism, persistence, Perseverance and joy,
Transmissible as it drags its tail across your path and
bites you in the ass.
Hope is not some delicate, beautiful bird, Emily.
It's a lowly little sewer rat
That snorts pesticides like they were
Lines of coke and still
Shows up on time to work the next day
Looking no worse for wear.

#KnitSky - those of you with cats, how hard is it to knit with your cat nearby? I have to cross stitch in a separate room or she goes crazy batting at the threads... wondering if I'd be able to knit on the couch in peace if I took up knitting, or if that'd have the same problem lol

Merry Christmas everyone! #Cats #CatsOfBluesky
My cat, Helvetica, is sitting under a Christmas tree on the fluffy tree skirt. Branches are hanging down over her head, and the whole image has a soft purple glow from the Christmas lights. She is calmly looking at the camera with big eyes. She is also extremely cute, but I'm admittedly a bit biased there.

this poem got a lot of flak when it was written because people have no reading comprehension but i've been thinking about it a lot again (by @vinayrk.bsky.social unless i'm mistaken)
[title] there's laundry to do and a genocide to stop

there's laundry to do and a genocide to stop. I have to eat better and also avoid a plague. my rent went up $150. I'll need to pick up more shifts. Twenty people died in Rafah this morning and every major news outlet is stretching the limits of passive voice to suggest whole families may have leaped up through the air at missiles that otherwise had the right of way. I just got a notification that my student loan payments are starting up again and my phone isn't charged. My cousin got COVID for a fourth time and can no longer work or walk or even feed himself. The person across from me on the L train seems to fashion themself a punk rock revolutionary, but they're not wearing a face mask, and that's the kind of cognitive dissonance that makes me want to steal batteries. Fascists keep winning primaries for both parties, and I think I gained a few pounds. The CDC just announced there are no more speed limits on highways, and I think this Ativan is finally hitting. The NYPD farmer's market only sells bad apples, have you heard that one? Listen it's warm today, too warm for March. But I don't have time to think through the implications because there's laundry to do and a genocide to stop.

Most discussions about “misinformation” treat the problem as if people simply don’t have good enough critical-thinking skills. It sounds intuitive, but it’s not entirely accurate. The problem isn’t just individual ignorance, it’s the structure of the information environment people are placed into.

All I want in life is to persuade everyone, when encountering politics & culture, to ask, "why are we talking about this?" I mean that very literally: anything you encounter on your screens reflects a choice. Someone covered that, talked about that, rather than the many other things out there. Why?

Made a cute thing as part of my annual #PrideMonth tradition: start a new #Stardew save file and get gay married in-game by the end of June. (Romancing Haley this year with a flower-themed farm!)
A stardew farm area with bee houses laid out in the shape of a heart. Inside the heart are 12 fairy roses in alternating tiles, being watered by three basic sprinklers, protected by a scarecrow in the "dip" at the top of the heart. The bee houses are surrounded by grass, and the whole feature is within a wooden deck area surrounded by a wood fence.

So, I think it's time I begin, in detailed specifics, talking about the mess that is Unbound / Boundless as a book publisher, in essence stealing most of a years royalties from me and many other authors, as a result of poor financial decisions, and legal BS. Please read and share this thread.

Nikki standing in a field of orange flowers. She is wearing a green qipao with long orange hair in two curly pigtails, and has ear ornamentation that makes her look like she has elf ears, as well as a sort of halo ornament above her head. The background is a diverse nature scene with a lake, forest, and distant mountain range.

Ursula K. Le Guin on the true pain of being a writer
Screenshot of a single question and answer from interview in the Times Literary Supplement with Ursula K. Le Guin. Here is the quote:

If you could make a change to anything you’ve written over the years, what would it be?

In The Dispossessed, I would mention the communal pickle barrels at street corners in the big towns, restocked by whoever in the community has made or kept more pickles than they need. I knew about the free pickles all along, but never could fit them into the book.

One less obvious impact of ADHD & autism is how so many judgements we make about someone's morality or character rely on that person's capacity to remember, to direct attention, to complete tasks, & to correctly read & perform social cues. Let me give some quick examples.

#Severance s2e8 - anybody else seeing the resemblance between this severance chip diagram and the computer program Miss Huang was running?
A collage of two images. The top is a view of Miss Huang's computer screen, and the bottom is a hand drawn severance chip diagram from Cobel's notebook. Both of them involve sorting circles, dropped from the top of the screen/apparatus, down into distinct buckets or channels. Note that the chip diagram one also has four nodes labeled f, w, d, and m (after the four tempers), but that there are still more channels than there are temper nodes.
