At my son's May Day performance and some parents won't shut up during the performance, even talking on the phone. Just stay home next time!

Got mango sap all over my fingers this morning picking fruit and I could NOT get it off. A Google search said to "wash" my hands with peanut butter, then soap and water, and it actually worked! πŸ˜‚

Sixteen rows in and I'm already in love with it! Yarn is Red Lotus Lane from Destination Lane (Destination Yarns' club).

I started knitting a blanket today in fingering yarn, will definitely regret later.

The concentration of wealth in the hands of an elite few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, the American people don't have a voice. The result? Demagoguery and corruption.

Holy shit, Gen V ep 1 was crazypants. So on brand, lol.

What social media posting app do you recommend? I'm thinking about getting back into regular posting, and I need a scheduling app across multiple platforms and accounts that has both a free option and basic option for me to consider.

Solid kitty work. 11/10.

I got a pack of key finder things, except now I've lost both things I was going to attach them to. πŸ™ƒ

Today was one of the rare times I willingly sought out a photo of that walking assface. Worth it!

After Japan, I couldn't get my body up early anymore, so I had to switch to working out in the early evenings. Going to Alaska seems to have reset my clock, and I was up at 4:15 today. And as a bonus, I smashed my previous running distance of 2.1 miles and hit 3 miles for the first time ever! πŸ₯³πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

I have to pack, and I keep changing my mind on what knitting projects to take with me, lol.

Is elon a verb yet? "Oh, I really eloned that up."

Someone saw me on LinkedIn and invited me to be a founding member of "a new network of local men leaders." πŸ˜‚

we have fun out here

The finished sweater! This was a test knit I did. The pattern is now available: Midsummer Meadow Sweater by Annelie Verbrugge https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/midsummer-meadow-sweater

I finished knitting a sweater last night. My first ever one in fingering+mohair! It was surprisingly easier to knit than a worsted sweater I'm also working on.

The Silo finale definitely delivered the goods. Overall a solid 1st season, the series stuck close to the source material while also introducing some new additions that make things interesting even to those who've read the books. Top notch performances by the entire cast. Can't wait for season 2.

Nintendo edited the gun out of Doomguy's hand for the November 2001 issue of Nintendo Power. 🀣

This was a rather heart-crushing read as a Lostie. So disappointing. https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2023/05/lost-tv-show-culture

Finally started The Bear, after numerous Hulu errors, and now I get why people call this show stressful, lol.

being on bluesky is like going to a conference. at first, everything feels strange, but then, one by one, your friends arrive. hi everyone!

I deactivated my threads account already but it turns out you can’t delete your threads account *without also deleting your Instagram account* so maybe just don’t sign up!

This is getting ridiculous how are we meant to juggle all these platforms? 😑

The unveiling of new social media networks will continue until morale improves

I would like this word to die today.
