My random thoughts on the TV series #HeatedRivalry as a Black woman who was born and raised in Montreal and was alive the last time Habs won the Cup. #spoilers I did not read the books.

- Have they not heard of washcloths?
- Forgetting to bring water is odd for someone who folds EVERYTHING 1/3

Apparently so, obviously not everyone, but a lot of white people do not use washcloths.

Today in: What cut a pump down to less than 40% of its operating capacity

Now I am a fan of smaller pumps and steps taken to reduce energy consumption on an institutional level, but this is also highly dependent on folks not… doing… this… at scale

Made washcloths for a baby due for a brewery friend. Dropped them off to him tonight and got the “I needed this good today” line. I love doing this.

I think I have flannel washcloths, specifically. I already ordered a Neutrogena moisturizer, but I’ll try to get Aveeno as well. I don’t think it will get here today at this point, but I have a sneaking suspicion this will not be solved overnight.

Agreed! I’ve soled scrubbies and washcloths, but I try not to monetize my hobby. There’s lots of beginners in my one crochet group and they’re learning it so they can make money, and they’re going to be disappointed with a saturated market

Just finished reading Kerry Ann Boyko ( @kerryanncoder )’s trans comedy novel, “We Interrupt This Transition”. It was a recommendation from the St Almsworth Book Club Podcast and I really enjoyed it!

The premise is truly bonkers yet scarily plausible, and […]

[Original post on rubber.social]
A passage from “We Interrupt This Transition”. "That sounds great. Jimmy, doesn't that sound great?" asked Sam, to Jimmy, who was entranced by the comic he was reading. "Hunh, what? Oh," said Jimmy. "Always liked comic books. Growing up, I loved the X-men." "That's your first lesson then. They prefer to be called trans women," said Kieran. "No no, that's not what I-" "Don't worry, Jimmy," said Keiran, "I'm just pulling your leg." *** Across town, Daria was driving to her home in Lawndale, which, regrettably, involved "the 405," a particularly infamous stretch of highway that Daria hated. She sat in traffic, scowling, right blinker blinking, looking for an opportunity to head into the right lane. An opportunity which was not immediately forthcoming. There were many words in the English language she did not like, but of the ones constantly suggested by her phone's auto-correct, 'gridlock' was the worst. A passage from “We Interrupt This Transition” "See you on Monday, Mr. Howard." "You're on the team now, Erin. Call me Jimmy. And let me know if there's anything i can do to help you out. It's a big role, and you're kind of getting thrown into the deep end, but we know you can do it, and... well, quite frankly, your audition blew us away." "Really?" "Erin, I don't know how to tell you this, but your compassion? Your kindness? Your warmth? I think that went a long way towards alleviating some of the doubts that Garden Alpha's team had about the project. You're not just on the cast, Erin, you might just be the gorilla glue that holds this crazy train together." Erin was somewhat distracted by a barrage of tiny little kisses. "Jimmy?" "Yes, Erin?" "I think my wife wants me to get off the phone." "Then I'll see you on Monday. Break a leg." Erin hung up, then jumped up and down with joy along with Julia. After they finished hugging and crying, they both put their uneaten spaghetti in the trash, put the dishes in the dishwasher, put on some nice clothes, and went out to eat a really nice steak dinner. They also did other things. A passage from “We Interrupt This Transition” As the deadline had approached, Leia had already done her makeup, hair, and put on a nice, simple black dress with pantyhose and flat shoes, and was currently finishing up studying the chat logs of a discord server that had a lot of trans women on it. "I don't know, Elaine. I don't understand half of these in-jokes - they keep referring to some sort of basement? And there's this IKEA plushie? And occasionally plant aliens?? But I think I've learned enough to fake my way through an interview." Elaine was pacing back and forth in her room. "Elaine, why are you nervous? You're going to be fine. And if you keep walking like that, you'll sweat, and your makeup is going to run." "Good point," said Elaine, who ran into the bathroom and applied a makeup fixing spray. A passage from “We Interrupt This Transition”. Next was Elaine, wearing a blue twirler dress with yellow and white highlights, in the form of gears, Erlenmeyer flasks, Bohr model atoms and molecular diagrams. She had even gone so far as to order some real squishy prosthetic breasts - no more washcloths stuffed down the bra - and did a little spin in her Mary Janes when she arrived on her spot. "Hello. My name is Elaine MacDonald. I'm a computer science student from San Diego, and I like tabletop roleplaying games, figuring out Nash Equilibria, and bondage." The judges, Jamie, Erin, and the crew broke out in laughter. "ELAINE!" yelled Leia, in shock. "What. What'd I say?" "Chemical!" said Leia, frantically. "She means organic and covalent bonds in chemistry." Elaine shrugged. "Well yeah, that's cool too, I guess." "Jesus Christ," Leia muttered under her breath. Jamie reached over and patted Leia on the shoulder in sympathy.

I carry a package of disposable washcloths in the truck for after my crew comes out of the fire and drops their gear. Turns out they're intended to be baby wipes for patients who wear adult diapers.

Work great for my purpose, tho.

(We're supposed to have anti-cancer ones that cost 10x, but no.)
