Bad news for my US customers, I’m afraid, and bad news for me too. The White House has issued an executive order that suspends the de minimis duty-free exemption for low-value items entering …

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat.

My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?

Are you seeing signs of spring where you live? Here on Cape Cod, the daffodils and andromeda are blossoming. It'll be another month before the trees start leafing out.

It’s done, I’m officially out of fucks. I’m thinking about hand quilting it so I can stab something about a million times. #quiltsky #improvquilt #ragequilting

An amazingly beautiful but very bright quilt behind held in front of a 100 year old magnolia tree in full bloom. There are petals all over the ground and the quilt says fuck, over and over again, 47 times to be exact.

A portion of the fuck quilt spread out on my dining room table.

Orange cat Finn looks majestic sitting on the turquoise ironing board with the colorful fuck quilt goading into the background in the wall behind him.

The fuck quilt hangs on the ironing board with windows behind it letting in light so the quilt glows like stained glass.

Wednesday quilting - this is the yearly quilt top I get from the Meijer Gardens here in Grand Rapids. Every year kids go to the "farm" and make patches for a quilt. This year it's birds.
