What I’m proud of/what’s on my needles: the latest sock (the pattern is Handpaint Highlights), and my Ebba pullover. Have finished the body and started a sleeve. #ShowMeYourKnits

Something about “maker” and “making” instead of knitter/knitting (or whatever the specific craft is) really annoys me and I can’t put my finger on why.

gearing up for a day of totally out of pocket takes, but a few reminders: 1. Home rule should never be contingent on which way DC votes and anyone saying otherwise can eat shit 2. DC is a real place with its own issues for real people, not a stand in for national politics writ large

Kennedy's behavior always makes sense if you assume two things: 1) He's a eugenicist who believes viruses are a good thing, because — he believes — they purge the gene pool of weaker members. 2) He believes.... www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/u...

This is my Sharon’s Glamping Blanket from a few years ago. It was a fun knit and I love it, but don’t use it much (at all), because it’s not usually cold enough. #ShowMeYourKnits

I have so many. The sites that email you after you browse like “you have great taste!” “Do you need help checking out?” When I look at an ad and then my entire instagram feed is endless ads for that item. Articles where an AI “reading assistant” pops up. I can read, thanks.

Sigh. If only we had learned from the start of COVID that work from home has many benefits, instead of being inexplicably forced back to the office by out-of-touch CEOs.
