The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

ICE director Tom Homan is complaining that Know Your Rights campaigns are making it harder to round up immigrants, telling CNN that in Chicago “they’ve been educated on how to defy ICE.” @rebeccaburns.bsky.social and I met with those gumming up the works of Trump’s mass deportation machine.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

From 2024. I don't use oranges and yellows all that often, unless they're part of a rainbow or colour wheel, but I wanted something flame-inspired for this one. It's one of my larger pieces at just over 43cm (17") across. #blackwork #embroidery on 14-count Aida cloth. #craftsky #artsky

13. I get a lot of satisfaction from embroidery. I particularly enjoy blackwork. Here’s one I finished recently. It’s the Peppermint Purple 2024 stitchalong. There’s one section for each week of the year.

Another older piece of work. I plotted the position of the inner planets on the day I started this piece. I have a little obsession with blue-yellow, that shows through here. Anyway - my Inner Solar System blackwork (sans black).
