The most absolutely massive flex from the state fair exhibit. This quilt is made of 40 years of prize ribbons from various categories at the New Mexico State Fair won by Carol St. Clair Johnson. She also won a prize for this quilt.

born 1954; resides Albuquerque, NM

O Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years
2023
satin ribbons

After unexpectedly winning her first blue ribbon for a sewn cape in 1981, Carol St. Clair Johnson developed an enduring love for the New Mexico State Fair. The quilt Fair New Mexico-41 Fair Years incorporates more than six hundred of the ribbons she won at the fair every subsequent year except 2020 (when the fair was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic). Johnson earned ribbons for needlework, knitting, crochet, pies, cookies, cakes, canning, jewelry, flowers, vegetables, and potted plants. The title of the quilt is a reference to the state song, and the design places the state's Zia sun symbol at the center. The quilt earned Johnson yet another ribbon: Best in Category (miscellaneous quilt) at the 2023 New Mexico State Fair.

@marcelias.bluesky.social just blocked me for politely asking him to address the Mothership fundraising situation. Blocking for asking that question is not reassuring me!!

When Mark Duplass, Kyle Chandler, or Ron Livingston is in a movie I'm watching, it often takes me a while to figure which one I am seeing

Well now, would you look at that? A massive study of NEARLY 300,000 people in the United States found that receiving an updated mRNA COVID-19 vaccine REDUCED people’s risk of SEVERE disease AND death in ALL age groups, REGARDLESS of immunity from prior infection or vaccination.

Libraries are among the few public institutions that represent the kind of world we want to live in. They must be fought for.

Everyone pack up and go home, I've found the best possible tourist trap gift shop purchase.

A laser cut wooden magnet showing two human figures, their heads bent together as if sharing a romantic moment. The text on the magnet says 'Life is not the amount of breaths you take. It's the moments that that your breath away. DONNER MEMORIAL STATE PARK. 2025.' The font is Papyrus. It's funny because the Donner party notoriously resorted to cannibalism while snowed in during the winter of 1846.

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

@peters.senate.gov please resign now. Take your payment, or cowardice, and please get out so we can have a senator who puts Michigan, and the United States, and democracy first. Ambitious staffers, if you plan to have any sort of career in the Michigan Democratic party, the time to jump ship is now

Gary Peters' voicemail isn't allowing messages this morning. My message is: snap out of it and lead our resistance, or resign and let someone willing and able to fight replace you. @peters.senate.gov

One thing for Senate Democrats to do is announce they will use every tool at their disposal to block Bondi’s nomination until DOJ appoints a special counsel (ideally with beefed up firing protections) to investigate the widely reported crimes committed this week by Musk and his band of DOGE goons.

Among other reasons why you want a neutral civil service: it will be important to have a comprehensive investigation into this crash by competent professionals who don’t owe their personal allegiance to Donald Trump, and whose primary concern is not protecting his poll numbers.

The head of the FAA, Mike Whitaker, resigned on January 20 — one year into his 5 year term — after facing relentless criticism from Musk for not approving SpaceX missions quickly enough. The Senate confirmed him unanimously in 2023. No acting FAA head has been appointed.

This place still feels a bit small, not football focused, but maybe we could try and connect Arsenal fans at least. If you are an Arsenal fan, leave a reply, people can follow, also please repost or whatever it's called her and hopefully it can spread. #arsenal

When dogs are happy and feeling loved they make little grunting sounds, barely audibly. In revisionist etymology these sounds shall be called "gruntles", and will now be the new original source of the word "disgruntled". That is all.

I am willing to concede that singing "You are my dumbshine, my only dumbshine" to my offspring may not have been optimal parenting, even if it was funny.
