More green! Rainbow Flora in Juniper Moon Farms Cumulus. This cotton is an absolute dream to work with. I have since removed the ribbing and added 6”. I’m too old for “cropped.”

For #FinishItFebruary, I finished 6 of 7 WIP’s, mended 5 of 6 things planned, but now have to mend a snag on one of the WIP’s I’d finished. 😢 Content with my progress. Now “shopping my queue” for the next few projects!

The CIA may have just doxxed itself—in compliance with Trump’s attempts to purge the federal government, the CIA sent his administration an unclassified email containing a list of every single person the CIA had hired over the past two years.

Today’s project: Fonsé Shawlette. Started it last summer, but now it’s #FinishItFebruary. I put in more repeats for depth, and am about a dozen rows from bind-off. Yay!

As a casual non-white observer, it’s so bizarre to see folks work so hard to try to prove their superiority over someone like me when they could spend that time actually bettering their own lives and…I don’t know, be happy instead of miserable fucks.

Want a great slogan for midterms?
"If you FAFO and are struggling because of Trump policies, we understand. The Dems are here for you. Tell us how we can help you "
You get the point.
FAFO will be the theme. Be the solution.

Public service announcement: when a rep or senator says something, they literally have the same info you do from the same sources.
We always pretended to have special knowledge, but rarely did.
Keep that in mind with the drone hysteria
