On Friday, the U.S. is ending its de minimis rule that made it easy for cheap goods to reach consumers. The change will affect roughly 4 million such packages processed each day.
What will the end of the 'de minimis' rule mean for U.S. consumers?

Heg #knitsky - the past few years I’ve been hosting a Fediverse craftalong - the #FinishOrFrogAlong - in Sept. The goal is to support each other getting WIPs over the finish line or deciding it’s just never going to happen. Taking temp on bluesky to gauge interest. Anyone up for it? #knitting

I got my first part of Birkenstocks EVER. These are oiled leather tobacco brown Arizonas with the soft footbed. Your comments on breaking them in, wearing them with (handknit) socks, and any other hints you have for being a Birkenstocks wearer are welcome and encouraged. #birkenstocks #shoes

Finished @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social ‘s Enchanted Greenhouse in a binge and am now listening to the audiobook to catch all the details I missed as I rushed through to find out what was going to happen. Recommended if you like smart women, nice men, magic, and sentient plants. And Spellshop #booksky

Instead of buying fireworks, buy cat food to donate to a local shelter. You’ll feel much better afterwards and you won’t have scared any animals!

Audible recommended this book to me and I assumed it was a parody of current events. Then I realized it was published in 2019. @scalzi.com #books #booksky

I’m going to Paris for about a week at the end of June / early July. I’ve been to a lot of the main touristy things in the past. What should I do this time? Especially anything with textiles / spinning / knitting / fiberarts or food (any price as long as it’s tasty). #travel #food #FiberArts #paris

Here she is, my @daedalusspinners.bsky.social Starling! It took me a bit to figure out some things like how to thread the leader properly, how to fix alignment issues, and how to get the tension band working, but now, smooth and quiet as butter. It’s love! #handspinning (fiber: shaniko from YarnJam)

Ritual N/A gin with Fever Tree Cucumber, 1:2 ratio stirred, served over ice. Not bad! Crisp, clean, and the quinine makes it taste more like a “real” cocktail. I feel like I may end up with a series like “Ritual N/A gin with…”. This was a good one to start with. #mocktails #cocktails

Listening to Wheel of Time again from the beginning (I have yet to make it to the last few books), I am reminded of how good a story it truly is. I still prefer it to the TV adaptation. Yes it’s long ...

My Mastodon poll ended with Bacon Burner in the lead which is perfectly aligned with what I decided while the poll was running. Probably will spin it end to end and chain ply to make a gradient. #handspinning #fiber

Super excited about my Ghibli-themed batts from @fossilfibers.bsky.social. Which one should I start with? Bacon Burner (Calcifer - purplish/orangish), Ponyo’s Jellyfish Ride, (blues/turquoise/pink) or Paper Airplane Skies (the Wind Rises - sky colors blues through orange to pink)? #handspinning

I’m staying in a hotel and took a picture of the door and number of my room so I won’t forget which one it is. Like when I take a picture of my rental car in whatever parking spot I use tomorrow. My phone photo album is my outboard brain.

I stopped by the Woodland Handcrafts site just out of curiousity. I’ve only placed preorders and never successfully ordered but I hit the jackpot and soon will be the owner of this gorgeous morel mushroom support spindle. OMG. #handspinning #supportedspindle

I read about the yarn in Ellie’s hat in The Last of Us (someone said Sweet Georgia, speculation was Malabrigo). It made me think about clothing in the post-apocalyptic age. Learning to shear, pick, spin, knit/weave/crochet is smart prep for the apocalypse #HandSpinning #knitting #crochet #weaving

I’ve been doing a lot of comfort media (re)listening. I am back in @marthawells.com Murderbot Diaries (Artificial Condition right now) after a relisten to Cemeteries of Amalo and a brief detour to a couple of chapters of @scalzi.com ‘s Kaiju Preservation Society. #audiobooks
