“Just Joey” (gorgeous orange rose) and (effusive calligraphy) Josh wine are in the same category in my brain somehow
A Reddit post about Just Joey, an orange rose with ruffled petals and a beautiful open spiral shape

I’m leaning no, but it’s going to get more annoying to fix as I go on (I just noticed it the other day)

Would you ladder back 100 rows to fix this single loose thread that’s front and center on the neckline
Zoomed out yoke of sweater, loose thread is on the curling neckline at the center Zoomed in: aqua loose thread bridging two stitches at the center of the curling neckline

every time I go out in the winter I remember the Beths telling the story about Seattle where they got in a taxi and the guy was like "nice it's not raining eh" and they were like "it is though you can see it on the windshield" and he was like haha not really though eh

I also don’t believe in it per se, but I’ve been drinking more water ✨for my inflammation✨ (histamine issues make me subtly puffy and hydration helps clear it) and unfortunately I have to admit I do feel better generally too. But it’s hard to separate out really

Even better btw, I’d done undergrad in Arizona so my Georgetown experience was very “I get to experience real seasons! I can smell leaves and I’m having a pumpkin/maple cupcake that I got for free”. Peak. Also I was studying Farsi so it was basically the dream

I’ve become a cynic about this and my heart says “they’re not staffing Google Photos at a level where some team’s prize 2017 feature has become fundamentally broken yet” (jazzy music over vegan cupcakes)

I lived it: I removed TikTok from my phone and my screen time dropped 4-5 hours. PLEASE respect my privacy at this time. (I think there was kind of a knock-on effect where I’m using my phone more if I’m already on my phone? It wasn’t all TikTok)

The likely suspects: Katabasis (RF Kuang) Thirteenth by CM Rosens The Hollow Places or Nettle & Bone by T Kingfisher (Last 3 are obviously spooky season choices, and arguably descending into the underworld sort of counts too)

Mods??? When you make sure to read your book and set time aside for reading, you finish your book and then you don’t have a book you’re reading

Earleir, staring wistfully at delicious bread, I think sorrowfully: “but I don’t have anything to put on it 🥺”. Take a stab at how many pounds of cheese are in my fridge.

I did this when my kid was selling Girl Scout cookies and people fucking HATED it lol
URGENT UPDATE: Elka's
cookie sales are heating up and she has just 24 hours to finish strong!
This sale could decide what kind of Girl Scout trinket the entire troop earns, so Elka needs YOU on her team! Please, will you personally buy cookies from Elka today?

Sometimes my wife and I like to send each other text messages as though they’re democratic fundraising messages, and I believe she has produced the jewel of the form.
, it's
and I
have some personal news to share with you.
Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I feel deeply that we should have salad tonight
This year has been challenging in many ways, and I have immense gratitude for the kindness and support of family, community, and people like you who have continued to stand by me through everything. It means the world, and I wanted you to be among the first to know that squash is in the oven and kale is in the fridge.As many of you are aware, ve been navigating one of the most challenging periods of my day while waiting for dinner.
Facing baseless federal hunger brought on by not eating since lunch, fighting for the working kids of this country, and now caring for a mean toddler and helping him grow up in a world that isn't always easy. But it has also reminded me exactly why I do this work and who I do it for.
I will never stop working to eat dinner. I will never stop fighting for what is right, even when there is also some feta in the fridge. And I will never stop being so very thankful that you are by my side in this important work and that there is tahini in the pantry for dressing
With love and gratitude,
stop to end

Yesss. I’ve been telling people it’s much more motivating than games where you get an item/progress every X steps. I’ve gotta go to Mordor, which means I’ve gotta put on MILEAGE.
