I dunno whatchoo wanna discuss but here's a pretty picture of the latest shawl I made to surprise a lovely scholar who deserves a love-wrap. Someone on the other App said it looked like pretty chainmail. I like the idea of giving pretty armor to ppl fighting yt supremacy. #RepublicOfYarnia

In 2015 I learned that the French committed a massacre of Algerians in Paris in 1961. Sign reads, "Here we drown Algerians." I thought of it as the anti-racist rebellion in France continues. The sign says, "Here we drown Algerians."

I also just would be so thrilled if @atomfellows.bsky.social got some attention. Seriously if you're a creator and you haven't checked out their work, follow them and look. They're an artist's artist, the stuff they create is ambitious and brave and just... extraordinary. Truly.
