they/she. Knitter, pro-union. Scientist.

Dear anyone following my bsky:

This account features a healthy mix of the following;

* FFXIV bullshit
* Political talk from a pro-Union leftist, focusing on Canadian and BC politics
* Knitting content

Chances are, you're following me for only one of those three things. Consider the others gifts.
New sidegig idea...
A friend told me he had been clearing out his gran’s house. The most amazing thing he found there was this knitted effigy of the man who had run off and abandoned my friend’s pregnant aunt. Into the effigy had been stuck twenty knitting needles: one for every year since the man had vanished.

I forgot just how satisfying spinning was. It’s been ages.

Google and Meta search both report that Cape Breton Island has its own time zone 12 minutes ahead of mainland Nova Scotia time because they are both drawing that information from a Beaverton article I wrote in 2024

In hindsight, the subtitle for Dawntrail should have been "This Isn't A Sphene, This Is An Arms Race"

Try not to over-indulge in Hi-Cordials. It's not safe out there.

Reminding my fellow Bluesky crafters and sewists: JoAnn Crafts is going out of business, and the last stores will close by the end of May.

Please do not use Hobby Lobby to fill the gap.

The company is owned by a family of hypothetical Evangelical grifters and thieves.

US folks following me (hi!): this thread is full of some great printables. Honestly considering grabbing some of the #teslatakedown ones myself up here in Canada.
Got a printer? You can start fighting fascism. Here's a thread of things you can print and distribute. 👇

I promise doing something--even this--feels better than raging silently. And maybe it'll show you that standing up is possible and open you up to more things you can do.

@snailfever.bsky.social is a gift to all of us that appreciate a good gpose and have no time to work out how to do it themselves.

Everyone please commission them!

(And happy birthday @feralkwe.bsky.social !!)
The lovely and gregarious @jillthemenace.bsky.social commissioned @snailfever.bsky.social for this amazing set of gposes of Kit, a recently turned FSH enthusiast, telling G'raha exactly how she feels about him.

Thank you so much, both of you, for this scheming. <3
