Just something fun to post my hobbies on.
My weekend finish. Ears for a special kiddo who is marching at Disney this holiday season. Pattern is from Castillo Heritage crafts. From start to finish, approximately 20-30 hours of work including cut out, dying, and hand stitching. A fun project.

This is the backside stitch of my current projects. The clean look has taken a lot of practice and, even though this part of the stitch isn’t usually seen, it is nice to see it cleaning up.

Cutting or defunding programs like Medicaid would create major gaps in state funding and devastate state budgets. We're running out of time to protect our health care. Tell Congress NO CUTS to Medicaid!

Of y’all haven’t seen, Tim Walz is doing town halls nationwide in red states since the GOP won’t. I would lay dollars to donuts that he is going to run for President. I hope he does.

Canadien friends, i understand that retaliation in tariffs is necessary. As someone who will entirely likely see my electricity get significantly more expensive even without voting for the orange moron, I say ‘turn the screws’. It’s gonna suck but don’t bend to that asshole. FDT

Hey Canadien friends, what can I bring in trade for vaccines and antidepressants? If they make them illegal here, I’m going to need to know where to get them so I can help out people in MN who will need them…I fucking hate 47.

Some required viewing in times like this: The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. 47 is Zaphod and everyone who is blindly following along are Vogons. Careful of the poetry and cue up the Dolphins.

When history speaks about this time period, MAGA will be spit out just like Nazi. They will say many suffered so few could prosper and hate was directed at a group/groups so that the few could maintain control. We will become the cautionary tale for future generations. Pick your side.

So, friends, I propose that everyone who is demonizing DEI not be allowed to use the abbreviation. Spell it out. What part of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion do you hate so much? It will make you admit that you only feel ok around mediocre white men and others can act accordingly.
