Non-binary clog cobbler based in DC. I'm working in extended sizes - because it's not the size of your foot that's a problem; it's the size of your shoes.
Wow. This is the worst remake of "Weekend at Bernies" ever!

Dear, that's the news.

I said I would kick myself if I didn't get a bike ride in before the snow - then realized im not flexible enough for that, so I'm headed outside.

Isn't this like saying: "Give me what I want or I'll shoot myself in the foot?"

Trump announces tariffs on European countries opposing Greenland takeover
The move escalates tensions between the U.S. and longtime allies that have been sending Trump a message that the territory of Denmark is not for sale.

Am I the only one who wants an @mst3kofficial.bsky.social video game?

You and your friends control puppets while watching bad YouTube content.

I need a patch for the jacket I'm creating:

"No oligarchs were paid in the making of this jacket."

Taxes separate us from the animals. All animals deal with death, only humans have to deal with death and taxes.

(Although, a strong case has been made by Blondihacks that chamfers separate us from the animals...)

I love watching Ben on @jetlagthegame.bsky.social suffer - and today's episode does not disappoint!

I must be learning- two welt pockets, that I'm not unhappy with, and I didn't need to lookup the tutorial again!

I've been watching these crackers for hours, and I'm afraid they are quite boring.

Hey @vanhollen.senate.gov and @alsobrooks.senate.gov,

When the Epstein files release bill gets to the Senate; can I make a recommendation?

Can we append the bill to require a Special Prosecutor who answers to Congress? I think we should either see the files, or prosecute everyone.

Keep money local!

This X-mas season, make a plan to find and shop at small businesses - BEFORE you head to Amazon, Walmart, Target and other huge stores!

A new chicken has moved in nearby. Haven't seen them - but I can hear them. (Heard them about a block away - this one has pipes!)

It's so cold, I almost enjoy ironing!

Brrr. 🥶

A joke for Washingtonians (shameless stolen from the Style Invitational):

How long does it take to drive from Georgia to Connecticut?

5 minutes to an hour - depending on traffic.

I heard ya @sluggodoug.bsky.social, nothing spoils the spooky feelings more than Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer!

How about Why can't every day be Halloween as an antidote?

Don't get me wrong - I appreciate the fact that SNAP benefits and Air Traffic Controllers are being paid.

I am concerned that one political party is perfectly fine with holding the American people for ransom. And that the other political party is fine with holding the American people for ransom.

It is such a good feeling to start on a project, and find:
A nearly full 500 meter spool of thread in the color you want. And a half wound bobbin in the exact same color.

I'm bummed. Spamalot is coming to DC! I love that show!

But, it's coming to the Trump^wKennedy Center for the Performing Arts, so while the tickets are available and probably cheaper than usual - we won't be going.

I'm not quite sure how this fits their Anti-Woke agenda though.

Feels like a parade around here! 🎊

Just finished taping and cutting #MoodJoplinPattern. Now to find 5 yards of denim like fabric to make a mockup.

She who should not be named (starts with Alex and ends in Ah) has just got a lot more annoying.

When i ask for the time, she gives the time and then tries to tell a joke.

If you work in the largest river by volume, can you fix it please?

Reminder folks, hiking and biking is cool!

Im just checking out some of the new Metropolitan Branch Trail being built by DC.

It's cool cause you can see trains!
