I am constantly baffled by the number of people who walk around on speakerphone in a bookstore or library. You can still put phones up to your ear!

They are calling this 3D knitting. 🙄 Everything I make is 3D crochet. Anyone who has knit a sock is doing 3D knitting. What they mean is that they are charging $230 for a machine knit bag.
Apple has made a $230 iPhone sock 😅 the iPhone Pocket is actually a knitted bag, and Apple will start selling it on Friday www.theverge.com/news/818328/...
Apple made a $230 crossbody… sock
The iPhone Pocket isn’t really a pocket at all.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

The 2026 salute is HUGE. Like I was prepared for disappointment and am shocked at how good it is.

If Dems cave on the mere PROMISE of a vote, those Dems that cave will need to be run out of office, primary the fuck out of them and LEADERSHIP for not being able to fucking lead. This is getting stupid with these constant losses because of shit leadership.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Having one of those days where I don't want exactly what someone else has, but I want something that makes them wish they had what I have. It's cool, I'm often motivated by spite. #petty

Never let one event determine if your ideas are smart or dumb or overpriced. There are some events where I sell out of these goofy worms and sell zero rocks. Today it was all rocks and no worms. 🤷🏻♀️

You know who else kept the belongings of those they detained right?!? Rhymes with Yahtzees
It’s no big surprise that ICE is not returning jewelry, phones, and documents taken from citizens and undocumented immigrants. They have no system to store it, and ICE are criminals.
Protesters and anyone with a tan, leave your valuables at home!

Giving new life to old ornaments! @whatahellofawaytodad.com will be at Affton High School craft fair on Saturday, for you STL peeps. I'm thinking about organizing an ornament trade in, where turning in so many scratched up ornaments gets you one of these. This year is all about the barter.

Instagram moms are all over this story but I haven't seen it shared widely here. I have seen first hand accounts from the parents. This teacher had legal status in the US, a work permit, and, of course, had been fingerprinted and passed a criminal background check.

I've had the Panera Sip Club for years for occasional Dr Pepper & iced tea bc my kid has therapy right near one and kids love Panera Mac & cheese. Today I realized that I have been neglecting the iced coffee option and it's going to save me a fortune.

My junior travel agent has been helping dad with dinner plans tonight and just said she recommended a place "near their resort" (a hotel chain with "inn" in the name) basically so they could get to their food coma faster. 😅

This may be an echo chamber but at least I don't have to see the dumbest people on earth here, unlike Facebook. (Moms deserve more recognition for the fact that keeping up with kid stuff requires Facebook, and it is mentally exhausting.)
