LIBRARIES. Trust me, they are so gross and weird and awesome. And weird. And wholesome. And weird.

Every cop show replacements with mail carrier stories. Animal Control was a great pivot. I LOVE THE USPS AND I DON’T CARE WHO KNOWS IT.

You have to pay your taxes or you may go to jail. But now it costs money NO MATTER WHAT just to pay those taxes…
Who are we throwing into the harbor this time?

Helping a 10yo make a repeat pattern for fabric. She did all the drawings, I just helped with the computer bits. We're planning on making a boxy top once the fabric is printed.

Repeating pattern on a piece of fabric- hearts, stars, mushrooms and a weird lil' guy

Damn, I learned about that in an article about American surf culture.

If you haven’t seen it, check out Don’t Trust the B in Apartment 23 for the “ Sexiest Man Alive” ep with James Van Der Beek (always playing himself). Season 2, ep 3.

I get ick when they put the funny guys on. Like, no, you are in the wrong place. Blake Shelton was the first jump scare, but the Ryan Reynolds one really made me spit my coffee. And Johnny Depp- in 2009???? No no no.

I rewrote the alt text for that gif- I'm an editor too.

Ok, I think I'm a writer again. I just stopped writing insipid notes to come post on bluesky about how I'm writing again.

You could install a slide. Or the whole house is going to slide. Either way, this image has MOVEMENT.

Mamdani’s secret Luby’s early bird special meetup required members to steal a pepper shaker for intro to the gang.

Question from a 7yo at our art booth this weekend- “Do animals make art?” after we talked about how broad the word “art” really was.

Can’t tell me this bowerbird nest isnt art: www.bowerbirdproductivity.com/uploads/4/7/...

I love the stuff I came up with when making lots of toys for tiny people-- I could just do whatever and they liked it, so there were some very odd decisions made with scrap fabrics.

I’m late for this but I can’t believe I didn’t post a finished Halloween costume pic. #downtoclown #handmade #learntosew

I agree, AND this is already a firehouse of information. Missing something? We will always miss something.

I love a challenge. And now I’m gonna try your suction cup idea. I’d love a handle that juts out laterally, like ancient cars.

Learn how to sew. No one can take that away from you. Learn how to do something that will keep existing and can help people around you!

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Um, did you really fire all your politics writers? That is why people of all ages read Teen Vogue!

So if you sign up for a class with me, anything that can go wrong will be turned into a lesson. I CANNOT BE STOPPED!!

Student forgot the power cord for her serger lesson, giving me the first-time opportunity to try hand-cranking a serged seam (with the hand wheel). It worked! My wrist hurts 😂 but it was illuminating to know how useful these machines are designed to be, even without a power source! It was cool.
