Did 2 days on the TP and finished getting this yarn untangled. It is not, in fact, Cheaper Than Therapy. Tomorrow it will get properly wound into a center pull and hopefully its domestication will be complete. #NightlyProgressReport

Wait, lemme get this straight…we can’t subsidize health insurance plans under the Affordable Care Act for our own citizens but now we can subsidize oil extraction from Venezuela??

In the 60s I received a less effective version of the measles vaccine. Twice. I contracted measles in 1977. I was out of school for 6 weeks. Which as a kid sounds great except for the fact that I was fucking sick. No TV, no books, just sick. Why people would let their kids get this is mind boggling.

Here’s what it looks like to bring the yarn around as you change colors so you don’t leave a gap in your knitting.

I spent most of the day continuing to work on the skein of Cheaper Than Therapy that clearly is not, & I’m STILL not done. Eventually, I had enough and did the best bits of the first Huzzah sock. Between being sick and doing almost nothing, the entire long weekend was a blur. #NightlyProgressReport

And yet the pod bros of @crooked.com refuse to leave because they don’t feel like they’re getting the news as quickly on BlueSky. Their continued patronage of X is my biggest criticism of their brand. Do better guys.
how the fuck can any journalist remain on this fucking website.

SO close…

I’m at the point where if I cut the yarn I won’t have any problems making socks. But also, I’m not a quitter…

See also, stubborn.

Did today’s stitches on the temp project. Made the decision to have 12 rows of ribbing on the Stella sock so now I’m at the figuring out how many rows for the leg stage. And, I’m on the foot of Sweet Potato. #NightlyProgressReport #Knitting 🧶

I don’t know why anyone would admit to using AI. It’s like trying to pass off a microwave pizza as the real deal, only you’re bragging about how good you put the numbers into the microwave panel like that’s some sort of skill. It’s embarrassing. You should be embarrassed.

For those keeping up with my body’s escapades of this first fun weekend of 2026…everything seems fine…except my gut. It’s getting back to good but I had a normal meal yesterday and it did not approve. I’m back to a BRAT diet augmented with soup. This year is kicking off swimmingly.

Remember that these new heinous acts are distractions from the Epstein files and the economy and are brought to you by greed, corruption, and desperation.

Impeach Trump.

Impeach his enablers, co-conspirators, and pedophile friends.

Then, bring them all to justice.

This is our mandate.

I’m at Times Square, where an emergency “No War On Venezuela” protest just took to the street. Easily a thousand people here in real-feel 20°F weather.

“No more coups, no more wars, Venezuela’s not yours!”

“No boots on the ground no bombs in the air, U.S. out of everywhere!”

Just finished season 1 of Hijack and now I have to wait till Jan 14th for Apple to start releasing season 2. It’s so gripping I couldn’t knit while watching. So at least I’ll be able to get back to that in the meantime.

I don’t remember who it was that asked earlier what someone who liked Andor and Plur1bus should watch next, but it got me thinking. I too was struggling to find something worthwhile after Plur1bus. Turns out the answer is Hijack with Idris Elba. That’s why I’m still up at this hour…

Taking that nitro was one of those better safe than sorry kind of moments, but I’m really irritated with myself now cause my whole head is still tingling. It’s like my entire head has a mild case of tinnitus.

Bragging that you just passed your 3rd dementia test

they've made you take 3 dementia tests

As some of you may know, I have heart disease. I’m coming up on the 8th anniversary of my bypass surgery. Welp, had a little scare with a tiny bit of chest pain tonight. Took some nitro, checked my bp, and everything seems fine. Except for the nitro headache I now have. Sigh.

you say "i asked chatgpt"
i hear "i asked [an improv comedy group]"

an improv group wrote this report
instead of a therapist i use an improv comedy group
chatgpt is much like an improv comedy group

1) you are the audience, giving it prompts
2) it produces things roughly shaped like your prompt
3) it is trained to respond with Yes, And
4) it has the factual accuracy of improv
5) it does not understand comedy
This is fascinating: www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/s/I...

Someone “worked on a book with ChatGPT” for weeks and then sought help on Reddit when they couldn’t download the file. Redditors helped them realized ChatGPT had just been roleplaying/lying and there was no file/book…
