I knit and I know (some) things.
I drive an EV (no, not a Tesla) and recycle, so yeah, I'm one of those people.

Blinking lights on both sides of the crosswalk, in an area pretty well illuminated by a street light, and still people in cars occasionally try to run me over when I'm crossing the road. Ruuude.

Cracked the filter cover on my N95 earlier when I was swapping the filter to prep for my infusion center appt. 🙃 Had to borrow the husband's, which felt weird since his is more broken in than mine. Lucky for me, envomask's running a sale so I can replace the cover and grab a couple spares.

Discord has apparently decided that I can't have Firefox open and get desktop notifications on my PC, but the overlay works. Both are up to date. WTF. #Discord #SoftwareWTF

I find it kinda ironic that the person w/the "Jesus loves you" sticker on their rear window and the "In God we trust" sticker on their license plate are the ones who are parked straight, but very much in two spots. God might love you, lady, but your neighbors don't when you park like that.

Dear Twitch gaming streamers who enable drops - please, for all that's holy, raid into streams that have the same drops enabled! It's super annoying to have to go hunt down someone else to watch if you didn't hit 100% before getting raided elsewhere!

I'd like to give the US healthcare system and its insurance racket a hearty "fuck you".
Nothing like being woke up by a phone call telling you you're on the hook for $3k for an upcoming appt. #USHealthInsuranceIsAScam #AffordableHealthcareForAll

Let me be clear: this will impact ALL of us. It’s bigger than just Medicaid & Medicare. We will all pay the price.

TFW you see that you've had yarn in your stash for over a decade. Little sad to see the gray go, but it's been discontinued for years so I doubt I'd find more easily. #Knitting #NiftyKnitterDesigns #DoubleKnit

Got called "ignorant" & "fat lady" on a trail today bc she was mad I told her her dog should be on a leash, bc you know, rules. She had a leash for it w/her, so she prob. knew & was just being an EWL.
It's gotta be tough being such a bitch.
My socks, and the turtle I found were cooler than her.

One day I'll figure out what I want to do next, craft-wise. I've got cross stitch projects to finish, and miles of yarn waiting for me to knit into...stuff...but I'm having a hard time deciding what to actually work on. :(

Always nice to find the EV spot free of rando ICE vehicles in this parking deck...me we didn't have to deal with hot stairwells or dodging cars that couldn't turn a corner responsibly. #MustangTheCarNotTheHorse #EV

Broke WoW on my warlock...went through the tunnel to Ringing Deeps, came out to non-loading surroundings, the zone text changed from Ringing Deeps to Dornogal, then disconnected. Now I get disconnected when I log in on her, but my others load fine. :( I just wanted to do delves! #WorldOfWarcraft
