Is it time for the Beyoncé Halftime Show featuring the Ravens vs. Texans as the opening and closing act?

Brittney in Iowa @britswit.bsky.social · 25/12/2024

Wow, Netflix. We're in pregame coverage, and there are already buffering issues. Nice work. I'm quite certain NFL fans will revolt if this doesn't get resolved immediately.

Why does Disney+ think it's appropriate to cut When Love is Gone from A Muppet Christmas Carol? I understand it's a sad song, but it's a pretty important plot point.

A Muppet Christmas Carol will always be a Christmas classic. And possibly the best adaptation of A Christmas Carol.

I'm a lifelong Dolphins fan. But Josh Allen is the MVP this season. He just keeps getting better. I appreciate greatness when I see it.

I let my dog out back to potty. I slid across the sheet of ice that is my patio on the way out. Be safe out there, Iowans!

Also - Amy is a walking fire hazard. Who leaves their fireplace burning when they leave their house!? The Fabric of Christmas aka A Cozy Christmas Quilt is a standard Hallmark-style film, but so many fire hazards for having a firefighter as a main character.

My mom while watching The Fabric of Christmas: "Sewing machines don't rumble! They whir. Who makes these things!?" I hope the Quiltsky community can appreciate this. #quiltsky

Watching The Fabric of Christmas. I wonder if the hot fireman will be able to make a quilt for his sister in time for her Christmas wedding. Will he ask the local quiltmaker to assist? Will love happen? I can just never predict how these Hallmark films will turn out!

Season 15 of RuPaul's Drag Race. I absolutely love Luxx Noir London's confessional commentary. "People don't wear hats enough. Maybe they do wear a lot of hats. I don't know. I don't pay attention." I agree with all of this, girl. About hats AND paying attention. @luxxofficial.bsky.social

I'm up to season 14 on my rewatch of RuPaul's Drag Race. This season has so many firsts and twists that I almost have whiplash. Wish there had been a makeover challenge and puppet, but this cast was A+.

Dear #Booksky Strangers and Friends - I have ADHD and I'm trying to fall back in love with reading. I'll take any suggestions for books that are fast-paced. I love history and culture. I love both fiction and non-fiction. I definitely do better with narrative non-fiction because I need a story.

If anyone ever finds some of the sexy Founding Fathers fabric at a reasonable price, I need it. In fact - Joann Fabric needs to bring this back. I have so many great quilt ideas for this! So American!

A Drag Queen Christmas was last night! I want to applaud the incredibly talented and hard-working performers. Seeing some of my favorite Queens from Drag Race was an absolute treat! Crystal Methyd, Nina West, Sasha Colby, Brooke Lynn Hytes? In one show!? I am looking forward to next year's show.

A Drag Queen Christmas was absolutely delightful, high energy, entertaining, and lots of fun. If you get the chance to see it in a town near year, I recommend it!

Cankles the Corgi got her own Thanksgiving meal. I call it her Canksgiving Feast.

The Miami Dolphins will always be my team. Win or lose. I'll always keep my Fins up. Plus - there's always next year! If that doesn't manifest - there's always tacos! 🌮🌮🌮

Being a Miami Dolphins fan can be very, very painful. It's even more painful today. My sister is a Green Bay Packers fan. Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!

It says a lot about our imagining of the past that in the video game Oregon Trail, you can die of cholera or typhoid or dysentery but not of consumption, even though consumption was the most common cause of death in 19th century America, especially among westward travelers. In this essay I will

I bought a quilt kit at a quilt show a few months back. Kit is for a quilt measuring 61x77. Pattern provide has instructions for a 62" square. I am not even remotely experienced enough to figure out what to cut to add on the extra 15". (An email has been sent to the vendor for assistance!)

Have you even been cutting fabric for a quilt, come across a portion of instructions that seemingly make zero sense, and then walked away from the cutting table? Me either.

Cankles whimpers at the door, demanding to go outside...then she stands in the doorway, sniffs the air, and decides the air quality is subpar at the moment and walks away. Corgis...am I right? Sooooo dramatic.

I just wanted to share a photo of a quilt top I recently made. The pattern is called Cascading Ribbons by Cut Loose Press. #quilt #quiltsky #homemade #crafts #sewing #imadethis

If you have questions about the House, Senate, or the Constitution, you are welcome to ask me, and I will answer to the very best of my abilities. I'd rather talk about books, movies, Drag Race, or sewing, but I will always take the time to educate if I am able.

No, Gaetz does not get his seat in the House back. He resigned likely to end the ethics investigation. His vacant seat will be filled by special election per the Constitution. Could he get appointed to Marco Rubio's Senate seat if/when Rubio is confirmed as Secretary of State? Yes but unlikely.

Alright...all taunting aside. That was a heck of a game. The Chiefs winning streak is over. Which means the pressure for perfection is off. Looking forward to the rest of the season. I'm predicting a Lions/Bills Superb Owl. #nfl #superbowl #football
