I'm trying to sell more of these pins than they sell tickets for the Melania movie. I think I can do it. Want to help?

Good evening from the Whistle Witch!

We have shipped over 250,000 whistles in the first 10 days of February. We've also managed to streamline our production. Because of that, and your generosity supporting us with filament gift cards, we can now ship up to 3,000 whistles. 💓

Penny retrieved my slippers from upstairs and only barked at me once during this process? She looks okay but damn that's weird.

I finally looked up where the ° symbol was hiding on the iPhone keyboard and I feel so powerful now! I’ve missed it since typing ° stopped working in most places

I hate that commissions scams have gotten so common that I've got to scrutinize every ask I get* because it suuuuucks. :(

*(and generally I just don't take them since my brain doesn't play well with that sort of demand and goes into avoidance mode which is deeply frustrating)

slipping around on an ice hillock to try and put the trash cans away and reach out to grab the closest upright material next to me. Which is a climbing rose bush. Not my best move.

Constantly amazed at how people will still just send you their password in email when they're having login troubles, especially when you can tell from looking at it that it's probably one they reuse.

I have original art for a Sally Forth Sunday page up for sale on eBay. Art features the Minneapolis St. Paul Airport. All net proceeds of the sale will go to a local Minneapolis school which is being overwhelmed as they help families affected by ICE agents.

Man, it would be nice to see bird seed mixes with native seeds in them other than sunflowers. And I know that part of it is that there's not a lot of extra seed out there, especially regionally, but like someone's got to have echinacea seeds past their germination prime.
