Lefty linguist plus other stuff. 🏳️🌈 I crochet a lot, knit a little, and talk about yarn. I love to pet cats. Sometimes I have purple hair and complain. Realistic but not into doomerism.
Finished this crochet 🧶 blanket as a gift for a friend
Very happy with it and also to be done

My tuxedo cat got out of the house last night and when he deigned to come back, he was brawling with another cat on the porch
My orange cat was SO MAD that his housemate smelled like neighbor cat, he just recently stopped hissing at him

Thanks to the bucket bag trend in purses right now (may it continue on forever), I have my new favorite yarn purse
The puppy can hold so many skeins and projects. I have 2/3 of a blanket in there.
Plus my wallet and keys or whatever, that's not really what purses are for

When I first saw the "AI actor" advertised, I thought, I understand the concern, but everything I know about AI tells me the hype is lightyears ahead of the capability. They are only showing the very best pieces
But I truly did not think it would be this bad. When I say watch to the end, I mean it

My son had several things going on this morning at school that I attended, and it was casual, but for context I I've in Ohio and this is kind of a snooty school
Anyway halfway through I realized I was wearing my zip up with this on the back

I'm really enjoying crocheting 🧶 the Universe in Bloom CAL, and I'll tell you why -- it's a very thoughtfully designed pattern. It's also interesting and beautiful, but many patterns are
But it's clearly been tested or worked through a lot for user ease. Even advanced crocheters care 🥺

It has become a birria butterfly
1. It was not nearly as spicy as I wanted but it was still good. So more Chili arbol if I make it again
2. I think I like it more as a stew, because so much of the flavor is in the liquid. Sometimes classics are classics for a reason

Halfway through I decided to start pouring myself some wine while I was cooking "like in the movies", I said to myself, but I guzzled it down and per usual, it decimated my intelligence and situational awareness
That does concern me re: the final result (see exhibit c)

It is exactly as much work and energy as I remembered, for questionable rewards, see exhibit a and b
exhibit b has yet to fully pupate, but still

![An Ohio school administrator resigned from his position after selling the district's lawnmowers on Facebook Marketplace.
In a resignation letter, he wrote that the job had placed "significant mental and emotional strain" on both him and his family
[Then there is a photo of him]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jui7tthhfscsaaqhlc2dnier/bafkreicvtsvdpsrdw4475ikvzh4uid7tivrpxqyg5px3jknhacpw5jchue@jpeg)

This guy doesn't know anything about the state of American politics; he just wedged himself on the couch next to me so I would pet him and he likes being next to me.
So I'll pet him and that's a nice thing to focus on
