Chores exist. But so does spending the day in front of open windows, under a pile of handknit blankets with a ballpoint pen and crossword puzzles.

Music blasting when I get in a fight with toxic masculinity driving a mustang? Taylor Swift
Driving through downtown, calmly yielding to pedestrians and confused tourists? Metal

It's pouring down rain in Asheville, I stayed up too late watching Wolf Hall, but I'm blasting music and drinking coffee (or what's left after spilling it in the car anyway). Monday.

6 months ago today I was watching a couch and dumpster float down the road after #HurricaneHelene dumped 30" of rain, had no running water, and no clue what was going on. Today I'm watching the smoke float over the mountains from fires. Hey nature - cancel my "apocalypse" free trial, thanks.

Me with current events. I'm staying in the car, I'm not driving away, but I'm just going to lay down in this parking lot for a minute.

If you want to pretend that removing DEI initiatives is anything other than an excuse to purge women, POC, and queer folk, I don't know what to tell you. We've seen this before. This is terrifying.
they are mostly targeting black employees so this is quite literally just a repeat of woodrow wilson’s segregationist purge of the federal government
Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”

Blaming DEI is a smoke screen, this is exactly what they mean. Everything bad that happens is the fault of everyone but cis white dudes.
Don't let them hide behind symantics.

Thank you, I’ll have plenty! I used to crochet a long time ago and just started knitting a few weeks ago.
It’s been a great way to stop doomscrolling and reflect 😌
I’ve finished a Sophie scarf and have started a sweater. (I’m waiting for more purple yarn & am casting on a new cardigan as I wait 🫣)

Allow me to add my voice to the chorus of commentators who believe that elected Democrats' response to Trump's blitz of lawlessness has been woefully insufficient. With some exceptions, this looks like total surrender. Embarrassing and alarming.

I had a dream last night I threw a Tupperware of chicken stock at Musk, and tbh I don't know if I'm more mad I wasted homemade stock or that I can't do it in real life. It was glorious.
