while I have worn my musselburgh with a folded brim, my favorite way to wear it is extra slouchy like some sort of deranged, oversized gnome.

two things that can be true at the same time - Mitch can eat a bag of dicks and also thank god he voted the way he did last night. may be a hollow victory, still feels important.

It’s so weird how we’re all just working like this is still a normal country.

I just want it to be Friday so I can cry and be sad in peace and not have my crying and overstimulation be interrupted by something as silly as my job.

Look, I don’t know exactly who should replace Mr. Schumer as Minority Leader, but I wouldn’t be unhappy with Cory Booker, that’s for sure.

Just fyi - without bees? We’re cooked. And very very soon. While every single person in power is too concerned with getting every penny possible out of us instead of doing anything about our upcoming extinction.

We’re in an era of unbelievable headlines.
The image is a screenshot of a post on X by a user named Alan MacLeod (@AlanRMa
...). The post reads: "What stage of capitalism is this?" Below this, there is a headline from CNN Business that states: "Florida debates lifting some child labor laws to fill jobs vacant by undocumented immigrants." The post was made 7 hours ago.

danced to paparazzi on the middle of coney island avenue and genuinely didn’t give a single fuck. if anyone understands recession pop, it’s gaga and if american democracy is on its way out, at least there are good tunes to herald the fall.

teaching my silly white husband how to take out my two strand twists has been the biggest exercise in patience. there goes any chance of teaching him how to do a retwist and any chance of saving me trips to Harlem to maintain my locs.

past tazhi decided to get really high and run from their problems and somewhere in that adventure, red orange yarn was procured to make the paul cardigan inspired by the sample image and present tazhi can’t tell if past tazhi was on to something or fully losing it. guess we’ll find out together.

how many knit vests are too many? asking for a friend who has 7 vest patterns in their Ravelry queue and yarn for ALL of them (mostly handspun because have you met me?)

we are also immediately obsessed and have since cast on. 12 rows of bottom up ribbing was all I had in me but I’m looking forward to easy squishy garter. this yarn is 2 ply spun on my EEW 6.0 and is descended from Cloudy and Joy, a pair of Clun Forest x BFL lambs from WI.

the knitwear in Sting is incredible. from the opening scene where an old woman in knitting with wool held double with a fuzzy yarn to all of the cables and colorwork, this movie has nailed the wool vibes. the deadly spider is an added bonus.

have since abandoned that bindoff because life is unpleasant enough and fuck doing things that make it worse and am pivoting to sleeve knitting. monogamy (in all forms) is for the birds.

when the state of the universe makes you want to drink but you promised yourself you would drink less this year so you switch to little treats instead. dirty chai paired with citrus madeline cookies and my book bag project because my life is literally being held together by string these days.

My fleet includes a spinolution bullfrog, lendrum dt, flatiron, eew 6.0, daedalus starling and anywhere from 70-100 spindles (I stopped counting at 70). I should not bring anything else home but when has that stopped me?

I did finish one fleece and do a shit ton of sampling so it’s not all a wash. We’ll see what happens with the hoard this year.
