Found this childhood picture with my grandpa at his loom. He wove rag rugs, and I remember helping cut strips of fabric for weaving when I visited. This weekend, I started rug weaving with recycled denim.

Realized I took a pic of a #TourdeFleece skein from a couple days ago and forgot to post it. I love the subtle bi pride color pooling that’s happening in this one.

Day 4 #TourdeFleece
Working on a merino/bamboo blend. 2oz down, 2 to go, then I plan to spin the grey merino in the pic and ply both together.

Today is the start of Tour de Fleece (goal is to spin fiber every day the Tour de France rides). My personal goal is to get through as many of these fiber braids as I can.

Stanley Tucci held a door open for me when I was leaving a museum

In other news, I discovered my town has a creative reuse center (goodwill but for crafts) and I just unloaded a decade’s worth of art supplies there.

Just got a B&N email with “Dramione-inspired fiction” and I miss the days when fanfic-inspired stuff was more of a wink-nudge thing that wasn’t openly advertised

If I’m not posting as much about politics, it’s not that I don’t care. It’s just that I am utterly exhausted and trying to preserve and control what I can. I can only let so much rage in before it consumes me. So my focus is on creating, imagining, and loving as fiercely as I can.

I won a Birdfy bird feeder through a work holiday party and it’s been delightful seeing the birds that visit it. Though I did have to mix cayenne pepper into the seeds to try to prevent the squirrels from eating it all.

#VeilguardSpoilers Considering you can still interact with Teia and Viago if you save Minrathous, I don’t see a huge gameplay benefit (personal Rook motivations or romance path notwithstanding) to saving Treviso. It seems like you’re losing so many Minrathous sidequests and NPCs. 😮💨

I'm not particularly superstitious, but I do hold on to this one irrationality: the burning of the goat DOES matter.
My argument is that it hasn't burned for years now and shit keeps getting steadily worse. It was eaten by crows last year, but clearly that wasn't good enough.
