Happy WIP Wednesday!
Working on a shawl, there are mistakes. I leave them so I can see my progress over time, but mostly I hate frogging 😂

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.
The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.
At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

1. Now they are going after adult recreational leagues.
AG Ken Paxton is attempting to use consumer protection laws to argue that even allowing a trans person to compete in a rec league is engaging in "deceptive practices."
This could be a horrible precedent.
