Hey Seattle fiber friends! Saw this yesterday near me. Popped in to ask if people really came and was told it was started recently by a bartender who knits and folks are starting to come. Going to give it a shot.

I will be surprised if one or more of the House Republicans who have signed on to the Epstein discharge petition aren't strong-armed by Trump into changing their votes after Grijalva is sworn in, thus leaving the signers short of 218

Going thru the slide set for dad's memorial & ran across one of us with our homemade slip & slide in the back yard at grandmas - black plastic tarp, the hose & a small bit of dish soap to ease the slide. Redneck AF, but it was fun & one of dad's better ideas. 🤣

Ignoring our own needs is 100% one of the most destructively selfish things we can do. Over time it practically guarantees we're going to flame out & be unable to support any person or pet we love.

You're not The Exception who can run on empty indefinitely. The bill comes due.

I realize this is a VERY First World Problem, but my mom/sis hired some house cleaners to come the next few months until we get our bearings on things without dad around. This sounds great in theory, but whatever cleaning product they're using? If feels like they've injected it into my sinuses.

picketing outside the churchgoing senators’ churches would probably really really really make them uncomfortable

Tim Kaine on backlash he's getting: "I got the first good night's sleep last night that I've gotten since Oct 1, b/c I wasn't worried about being able to look Capitol Police in the eye when I walked in, or what a furloughed fed worker would say to me at church, or what somebody would say about SNAP"

Lots of people comparing Senate Democrats to Charlie Brown trying to kick the football, but that analogy only works in a version where Lucy has told Charlie Brown she's going to pull it away, and also that afterwards she's going to have Snoopy executed in a foreign prison

seems to me that those democrats inclined not to fight perceive themselves as living through a somewhat ordinary cycle of presidential overreach and backlash and not something much more significant and dangerous

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets.
no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

Retreat starts today, load-in starts in... 3 hours? I have not packed my personal stuff, moved shit out of the way so storage tubbies can be loaded up, finished the paperwork for kitchen prep, or packed up ancestor photos & dad. It's fine, everything's fine.

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.
