Life and knitting still must go on, even in the middle of an authoritarian takeover and possibly The Rapture today. Did photo shoots and posted two of these in the shop while watching the ever decaying state of the nation.

Write a real paper letter. They blow off our posts and emails, but letters coming in via USPS terrifies them. Grab a pen and freak them out. Tell them you’re going to cancel your Disney subscription.

Thank God for knitting or I’d be armed and dangerous. Studies have shown that it lowers BP and anxiety. I wish I could teach knitting to everyone who’s suffering from the craziness right now 😌

Pass this basic info on to those you know who don’t understand what a tariff is- Trump is shaking down both U.S. companies and other countries to produce more federal revenue that he can use to bulk up his ICE force. I truly doubt that most companies will pay it all themselves.

Cause of deaths in London in 1632.
Consumption = TB. Mostly curable with drugs. Teeth is is high- no dentists, no fluoride toothpaste. Fever as well. But look at the number of babies who died within a month of birth- called chrisomes after the white cloth used to bury them. Public health matters.

I marched with my Congressman #SeanCasten today in our Village’s July 4th parade because I refuse to give up my country and my flag to those who would sully both.
Happy Independence Day all.

Kick in for goodies? Right away, before the 2026 election. Screw the poor and rural citizens? Push off until after the 2026 election.
2026 will be a massive nationwide intelligence test. Gonna get out my popcorn and watch.

Call your Senators. Now. Email them if you’re shy. They need to be heard- yes, even and especially the enabling Republicans.
