goats, crochet, crafting, and strong opinions.
When we first moved to Oregon 11 years ago, we would drive into Portland to participate in protests. More recently, we’ve had to only go as far as Clackamas. There were 125 to 150 people last Saturday on 212 for the NO KINGS rally.

Well this is terrifying. I do not sell any THC products, but naturally derived CBD products do contain a small amount of THC. It’s unavoidable, which is why existing law sets a cap at .3% THC. Exceedingly low! But changing it to “absolutely none allowed” would put me and many others out of business.

A Senate Committee has approved the agriculture spending bill, which would ban intoxicating hemp products, but implementation would be delayed for one year.

It retrospect, putting a cam in the chicken nesting box that is vaguely egg-shaped might have been a mistake. The ladies keep trying to sit on it.

Greetings from Milk Barn Farm.

Also, I need to learn how to generate a vtt file.

I was inspired by Parinaz Bahadori in Jennifer Wilkin Penick’s Thursday Mixed Media session to snip my current mantra into letters and then carve a stamp. ATCs to follow.

Making small things with my hands helps calm the fog of existential dread swirling in my brain.

Meet Milk Barn Farm's newest heartbeat, Lola. She's a distinguished older lady who has had a rough go of things. But @hchamp.bsky.social found her, fell in love, and we decided to make her remaining years as soft and wonderful as we can. She and Bonnie are already playmates.

Gonna need you to post pics of cats, birbs, and any other cuddly, non-human animal in this thread, please. I need a timeline purge. Here is a good example of what I mean (a little shot from Milk Barn Farm, thanks to @fraying.bsky.social and @hchamp.bsky.social).

So as someone who created an event to only post beautiful things during December, I decree that tomorrow is #OnlyBeautifulThings day.

Here’s a thing that TikTok did that was new and glorious and captured that creative lightning.

I made a video talking to my goat. She’s hilarious. I posted it to TikTok.

Have I missed the opportunity to share CES memories?

2006? 2007? Demoing Flickr in the Y! Tenthouse. Talking to a dude about photosharing and I realize he's holding a thin plastic shopping bag full of dildos. As one does when the Adult Entertainment Expo is going on next door.

I’m hoping to find and follow folk who are interested in:

- #crochet and #yarnbombing
- #ATCs (artist trading cards)
- Mixed media art
- Cute dogs and cats
- goats

These are my favorite things I made in 2024.

Friendsgiving cancelled as I brought a shitty souvenir of Covid back from Amsterdam.

We decided to cook food anyway as the turkey was defrosted.

1) Managed to both undercook and overcook the 12lb bird. It was in fact, not defrosted. Took me 5 hours to figure this out.
