your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Apart from the fact that none of the black tones match and it needs to be blocked, I'd say this is a good practice sweater and not bad for the fourth sweater I've ever knit to completion #knitting #knitsky 1862
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Omg omg I just have to finish the collar and then I get to see if this damn sweater even fits #knitting #knitsky #diy 141
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 04/10/2026This one for sure. But I did watch Raiders of the Lost Ark every day for a month straight back in university when I didn't have cable hooked up. I cycled between it and The Last Crusade and maybe that's where my problems all truly startedstatic.klipy.comMonty Python Holy GrailALT: Monty Python Holy Grail 010
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Hey, it's starting to look like an actual pattern #knitting #knitsky #diy 0300
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Seriously, this is a knitting magazine and she's smizing like it's Vogue. Impeccable work, models from 1986 #knitting #knitsky #diy 0121
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Like, who are these two? I want to know their entire life stories. And also maybe knit the sweater they are wearing? I can't decide if it is cute or if I lack taste #knitting #knitsky #knittingpatterns #diy 120

your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Well, my nice planned day of running my own errands has turned into me being woken up early and asked if I can fit seven feet worth of 2x6 into my fucking tiny clown car, ruining both my plan and my day It's fine, it's fine, everything's fine and great and amazing 100

your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Okay, I am glad I went for snacks because it turned into unexpected visits with friends and I drove a hitchhiker home Turns out the hitchhiker was the same kid who took a wrong turn in the woods with some friends and ended up behind my chicken run last year. Small towns, I tell ya 😆 110

your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I think it's weird that protests have so much merch Like, everyone buying matching T-shirts for their performative marching feels more about the optics of looking progressive and not about making actual change Also, wear a fucking mask if you're in a huge group. I'm sure someone's selling 'em 🙄 020

your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I think the US president has clearly shown he will do whatever he wants because no one will stop him Profiteering, sex culting, murder, war; hell, he tore down half the White House. You think he isn't sending his personal army in to stop the mid-terms? Elections are over—who's gonna resist? No one 100

your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Oh, for sure. At the time it was terrifying, especially since I was encouraged to post a lot but no one had my back when it came to all the threats It was a huge giggle to occasionally meet someone in the wild who was a fan of my work. Didn't happen often but it was always flattering 110
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 18/09/2026It's not often I miss having a public platform but with all the election stupidity happening in this province currently… I'm just saying, my posts would be doing *numbers* right now Signed, the gal who broke every record for views and comments (and death threats received!) for the Georgia Straight 120
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 18/09/2026If any Vancouver mayoral candidate would like to beat Ken Sim, it's wildly simple: Mobilize. The. Voters Voter turnout was 36.3% in 2022. Go connect with the 63.7% of people who don't give a shit about local elections and MAKE THEM GIVE A SHIT It's not fucking rocket appliances #vanpoli #bcpoli 012
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 17/09/2026This is stupid and y'all will regret it I have stayed on standard time for two years now because if everything is made up and stupid anyway, I'm making up my own stupid 000
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Politicians, I beg of you: spend some of your overpaid time DOING YOUR JOBS instead of electioneering No more endless campaigning, cronyism, and conventions. How about getting the folks in the next town over some CLEAN DRINKING WATER? You are the mouthpiece for the people, GET IT TOGETHER 020
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Huh, I guess every comedian is a fucking creep 000
your weird aunt @novelproblems.bsky.social · 15/09/2026My biggest takeaway from this Macklemore gets kicked of the tour dialogue is that some people still listen to Pink Some of y'all do not remember her history of misogyny, particularly on her 2004 tour, and it showsstatic.klipy.comRaahimisgod Thorgy ThorALT: Raahimisgod Thorgy Thor 010
