Sky dandruff
It's snowing. It's snowing, and I don't approve of it one bit. And I am TRYING to force myself to be jolly about it (hence the snowbuddy here being all seasonal and festive and adorable), but it is not notably effective at the moment. The fact that neither of the [...]
One down
Ahem. I'm pleased! Now, allow me to offer a few general notes, because I'm like that and can never ever ever stop the barrage of words. 1) Yes! Pattern soon! This will almost certainly be the first pattern of the new year, which means almost certainly January or February. But [...]
Nature trash
To the folks who occasionally ask some version of 'wait, are you telling me you just have a pile of rocks and sticks and pine cones and other nature trash out in your office All The Time?!?' I say yes! Yes I do! I have it out all the time [...]
Abortion is healthcare
I'm so tired of listening to people argue that, because I have a uterus, I'm not really a person. I'm just an incubator. It's bullshit. Abortion is healthcare, and anyone who wants or needs one should be able to get one. So let's pay for some fucking abortions. For the [...]
As promised
Ahem. See? See I told you it was unspeakably nifty. And I mean yes, it will be Even More unspeakably nifty once I've blocked it and fiddled with it a little bit, but that's totally normal and absolutely to be expected. I've yet to meet knitting that didn't benefit [...]
Happy buttons
This project is hitting every single happy button in my brain. It's mellow enough that I do not have to think about it at all. It's pretty enough that I love it. And it's forcing me to accept randomness and eschew structure in a way that feels somehow...beneficial, without actually [...]
As is apparently traditional…
So, it's Thanksgiving week (in the US, I get that it's not the same everywhere). Which traditionally means Shopping Extravaganzas. But, eh, I'm not really feeling the extravaganza thing. I'm certainly not feeling like leaving the house and breathing other people's air. I'm kind of feeling like staying home and [...]
Frosty
Wanna see what getting the pattern pictures looks like? I kinda love showing off the behind the scenes stuff (it can feel a tiny bit strange and lonely doing all this all by myself, showing you some of the odder bits helps somehow). Plus you seem to like to see [...]
Controversy
There are things we can all agree on (climate change is real and tremendously dangerous, vaccines are a marvel of modern medicine and save countless lives, abortion is healthcare and anyone who needs one should have access to one). And then there the controversial things. Does pineapple belong on pizza [...]
Shiversome
Look, I am not known for my restraint. So, when faced with the prospect of pandemic winter, take two, it felt like my choices were either sink into a pit of despair (the sun sets at 3:59 here for much of December, which is just cruel), or grab on to [...]
