Pacific Northwest. Essentially a premature grandma who bakes, knits obsessively, and occasionally remembers to care for the flowers in my yard.

Alright as promised to @floregonian.com, here’s the finished shawl FINALLY not pinned to carpet. I’m very very pleased with how it came out.

Pattern: “Cathedral Grove” by Designs by Romi
Yarn: “Maleficent” and “Dragon’s Fire” by Long Dog Yarn

A white nonbinary woman poses in a handknit lace shawl. Her body is facing to the right of the photo, and her head is turned toward the camera. She has a big smile. The shawl has a purple top and bright green bottom.

A white person holds a lace knit shawl out, extended between their hands, so show the lace detailing. The shawl has a subtly variegated purple top, and a bright green bottom edge.

So many noodles, so little time.

Do you just do sand boas or do you have others?

Okay so I finished the second book of spoopy season. “What Stalks The Deep” in which @tkingfisher.com thoroughly traumatized me with creepy shit in and around an abandoned mine. Like the first two in the series, loved it.

Also Ursula… did it have to be mines? 😫

Hey you guys know that feeling when you realize you’ve been pronouncing a word wrong your entire life? 😫

Merriam-Webster @merriam-webster.com · 9h

Here’s a primer on ‘primer.’

It’s pronounced ‘PRIMM-er’ if you mean “a small book” or “a short informative piece of writing.”

It’s pronounced ‘PRY-mer’ if you mean “an initial coat of paint.”

It’s also old to its bones. Very different vibes than the mountains out here in the West.

Couldn’t be that women and girls present differently, or mask more acceptably, or anything like that.

Katie (she/they) @imagine0enigami.bsky.social · 11h

Yeah my thoughts happened thusly:

“What about girls?” and then IMMEDIATELY on the heels of that was, “Ahhh cool so that’s very likely antisemitic as fuck”.

I suspect as his English improves that will help him too. He’s got this.

I have to ask were cabinet meetings ever televised before or is this a new “fun” thing we now all have to endure?

Katie (she/they) @imagine0enigami.bsky.social · 12h

That was my IMMEDIATE question to a coworker.

Katie (she/they) @imagine0enigami.bsky.social · 16h
