It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Excellent post

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

This is the face of courage and compassion. Thank you Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde for speaking truth to power on behalf of the marginalized.

Yarn winding hack. If you’re using a yarn winder with slippery yarn, and happen to have a strap on or c*ck ring. You can use the silicone rings to slip over the top of the winder and hold the yarn secure! #crochet #knitting #yarn

Quickest project I’ve done. Two days for this dude! My brother better love his gift!! Pattern by CotswoldsCrochet #crochet#amigurumi#pokemon

Crochet hack. Instead of a giant tapestry needle that’s hard to get through tighter stitches. I use a sewing needle with a wide hole. I sanded the stabby end too so it’s less.. ya know.. stabby. This makes weaving in ends just a little less excruciating 😂 #crochet

We honestly don’t know what Pokémon looked like, we’re just guessing that we put their bones together correctly

Custom Yarn Bowl: Tethered Astronaut and Shooting Star 💫

Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends: 1. The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration; 2. If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you; 3. Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.

Universal healthcare isn’t just a pipe dream folks. Early human societies thrived by sharing resources and caring for the sick to ensure collective survival. It’s already in your code!

Don't Buy From Amazon ✊🏼 Amazon workers in more than 20 countries will strike & protest, Friday through Monday, to raise awareness of Amazon's anti-worker & anti-democratic practices. Thousands of #Amazon employees & allies on six continents will participate in a campaign called #MakeAmazonPay.

Amazon workers are striking all across the world right now. Remember we don’t cross picket lines, even digital ones!! Join in the strike people! #strike #workersrights #amazon

can’t stop thinking about this Mary Oliver poem 🥹

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

I’m going to start documenting my wips and it can be a guessing game along the way on what I’m making! #crochet

The next few years are going to be tough, but just remember what Anne Herbert said: "Libraries will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no libraries." The best time to join your local library is right now - if you have not already done so!
