TRANS RIGHTS ARE HUMAN RIGHTS 🏳️‍⚧️
Making is a form of resistance
Sing, knit, bake, sew, mend, grow
Call your legislators
And fight the fascists to your last breath
PISS EM OFF BY REMAINING JOYFUL

Howdy yall, throwing my intro out into the ether. And some photos for attention: a grafted replacement sock heel, my current EPP quilt in progress, and some yeast rolls. Plus I sing four part barbershop harmony with Sweet Adelines.
To save money I cook at home and watch movies at home and communicate with the outside world through text, then wind up depressed from being isolated and irritated with my family and drowning in all the bad news social media can feed me.

I’m so grateful that today #nyc made a loud and proud statement about valuing and protecting #trans 🏳️‍⚧️ people who live there, especially since that includes my beloved Elder Child and their kind and lovely friends. #MayorMamdani #TransLivesMatter

As the results roll in, this feels like the beginning of a new version of the Left. One that comes together around the value of human decency, having seen how very easily it can be lost. I have renewed hope.

I remember those halcyon days when I thought the They Might Be Giants song “When Will You Die” was about Dick Cheney.

One of my favorite things about BlueSky is how typos and other random use of certain words lands you in a completely unrelated feed. Today’s giggle came from a guilt/quilt typo. I don’t want to go on a guilt trip but I would love a quilt trip!!

Here’s the full Stitch Witch costume featuring my cottage core quilted witch hat and my oldest’s old Joann Fabric apron, maybe a collectors’ item someday. The apron not the hat. #Quilting #Sewing #Quilted #QuiltedAccessories #Halloween #DIYHalloweenCostume

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”?

anyway that’s why these events are important

I’m navigating some guilt over not attending No Kings 2 to attend a memorial for a good friend’s mom. She would even understand if I didn’t go, but the things we’re fighting for include community and support for the vulnerable, and I feel like that’s what I’m doing by going to the service.

Me and my barbershop quartet, aChording to Plan, as our “drag” alter egos aChording to MAN. We did a demo and sang a few songs at our chorus’s recent open house night. #SweetAdelines #SAI #BarbershopHarmony

In honor of our two new roommates, we’ve added a bit to our annual Halloween decor. #cats #halloween #HalloweenDecorations #WindowVinyl

My husband is neurodivergent and so are both of our kids. I think I may have taken Tylenol once or twice per kid while pregnant. The kids themselves only took it with a very rare fever, they were healthy tykes. If we’re speaking anecdotally, our type of autism is clearly genetic #FuckJunkScience

All MAGA Christians please drop your address in the comments so we heathens can come check your homes for abandoned yarn tomorrow. 🧶 #rapture

Name this band with a new album dropping this fall. #cats

I don’t want to unsubscribe from the bajillion email lists the Democratic Party put me on after I donated and signed up for various events. But I don’t have the bandwidth for all of them and just delete more often than not. Exceptions…(1/2)

My office is in the basement and with our elder kid having moved back in it’s messing with my compulsion to intuit where everyone is in the rest of the house. I can’t tell which kid is walking around. But now that they started emptying the dishwasher I know for sure it’s the younger kid.

Today’s the day. Moving Elder Child
(26) back home after being on their own for 5+ years due to a very sad breakup. They’re taking this opportunity to go back for a masters but feelings are so mixed. Everyone’s life is going to change dramatically. It’s going to take lots of love and patience. ❤️

People like to compare our current administration to 1940s Germany & I get that. But it feels like so much of the population is 100% aware & complicit today, cheering on the fascism. Did average Germans know the depth of the depravity going on during WWII? What’s a good website with accurate info?

It’s amazing how my creative willpower kicks into gear when I find a project someone already did that I can copy. 😳

I’m not having a pity party for a change. But I’m realizing that sometimes even the people you think care about you most aren’t really interested in putting down their own shit for a minute to listen to the struggles you have carrying yours. But I do it for them all the time.

Today I made about a dozen trips up & down stairs carrying furniture & boxes, walked about six blocks & back, drove almost 3 hours, & changed a flat in 93 degree heat on the side of the LIE. And it still felt like a holiday because I wasn’t reading the news of our country on the brink of fascism.

Instead of making a quilt, or knitting a toy bunny complete with wardrobe and carrying case, or visible mending my husband’s pants, I’m sitting here looking at photos where others have actually accomplished these things. #AmbitiousButTired

Dear NY and CA govs: even if TX backs down, do it anyway. I’m tired of playing fair against people who rig the game. Balls down, tits up, fight fire with fire. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. The senior citizens are ready to stand up to protect this country, its kids, and their future! FUCK FASCISM!!

If a YouTube creator clicks the heart on a comment I made on one of their videos, I will not unsubscribe for the rest of my life. It’s like automatic loyalty.

I got a butt cushion for my office chair and I swear my life is 17% better now.
