Every dollar JK Rowling makes from Harry Potter is going into bankrolling an extortion racket issuing legal threats to organizations across the UK to purge themselves of trans people or face ruinous lawfare.
i hope every single person who still buys harry potter merch or engages with that franchise is happy that they're literally making girl guides cry
girl guides uk have been forced very much against their will to exclude trans girls. full statement is here: www.girlguiding.org.uk/information-...

This is the scarf/blankie that is giving me a headache and is a pain in the arse. I love it, but I hate it! It's the Lost Souls pattern, I've made a triangle scarf already, and that was a pain, but this. This is something else. The yarn is perfect for this. It reminds me of Sugar Skulls.

written pattern. And definitely not a chart! I struggled with the triangle scarf with the same motif: skull. This is a square "blanket." Six years ago, I would have been able to carry on by myself! Remembering the increases and decreases in chains was almost impossible with the tutorial on! 😭😭😭

I was following a crochet pattern tutorial, row by row, because that's how I have to do new patterns now. Especially complicated ones. But the pattern ends at a point where the maker assumes everyone is ok carrying on on their. The last video in the series is from six years ago. There isn't even a

We paused our X-Files/Millennium/Lone Gunmen rewatch when we got back from Helsinki the other week as we needed comfort viewing. We decided on Trek. 2002 me would be horrified that we went with Enterprise! It did the job though. The more time has passed, the more I've grown to love it.

Winter had properly landed here in Pohjanmaa. Snow all over and we're below 0°C. Thank goodness I have the hexi-cardie I crocheted, as it is lovely and toasty.

The EHRC want to exclude women from femal single-sex spaces based on how "female" they look.
This is off the scale sexism and misogyny.
Millions of women will face harassment as result of this insanity.

We were supposed to be chatting with Mum this afternoon, but she has just phoned to cancel. She had a bad reaction to a codine based pain killer, which she is allergic to (and didn't check the packet as she forgot... ...thank you dementia) and is staying with her sister for a few days.

No shit. It shouldn't have taken so long to prove the bleeding obvious.
A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

There are about a million things wrong with entertainment journalism these days, but one of my biggest sticking points is that I would give anything to dedicate time to hyping up hidden gems and independent productions, but no one (who will also pay) is willing to platform pieces about them.
