Blessed rain 🌧 We are still in a drought but not anywhere near last year. Growing up outside Seattle WA, I had had enough rain, but I guess you realize how much you need it when is gone.

and so I wake in the morning and I step outside, but it’s not over yet; it’s still 2025, and I scream at the top of my lungs, FUUUUUUUUUUUCK

The Congressional Cemetery in Washington, D.C., includes a section of graves of LGBTQ Americans. We take a pride month tour.

we're thrilled to share that we've started the year with a new addition to our team! he's extremely smart, capable, charming, persuasive, and boasts a wealth of museum experience

I don't really have a set aesthetic, but whimsigoth and witchy are a couple of my faves! So, this cross stitch pattern by Stange Stitchery Shop is today's Pride share. This is their stitching, not mine, but this one is definitely on my (overlong) to do list. www.etsy.com/listing/1235...

It’s almost done! Stumpwork pansies yet to come, a doorknob and door details. Had to change it around. I was informed the doorknob was on the wrong side of the door! #Farm #floral #rughooking #proddy #appliqué #beadwork #embroidery #crochet

this time, with ducks!

Hours of sewing later, and my puppy is done! Crochet Puppy Pattern by Repeat Crafter Me.

My mom has started canning again. She canned a lot when I was a young child and we were poor. So far her peach jam has been fabulous. (Pickled peppers and green tomatoe relish haven't been tried yet). Next up she's making strawberry rhubarb jam.

It's nice knowing there are a few crows around still, but i miss hearing my crow name. Whenever I'd go outside they'd make a specific sound noting I was there. The crow on guard today didn't change his call when I went by. Kinda sad.

Zohran Mamdani is saying things like “poverty is a policy choice and politicians have a duty to their constituents to make their lives affordable” and it is making a lot of politicians very very scared that they may actually have to start doing some actual service in their public service jobs.

I’m just happy with a big smile that it’s Friday. Time to breathe, slow down, and enjoy the weekend. Who else feels that good energy? Wishing you rest and joy ahead! Maybe you’ll get to pet a dog this weekend! 💛 #corgi #corgicrew #corgisky

So happy it's going to be significantly cooler today. Even though i don't want to, it's a chance to work on things I can't do on the hot days.

My Totoro is done! Im really proud of this because not only is it only my 3rd cross stitch piece ever, but I painted the cloth, and also made the digital drawing and converted it to cross stitch pattern. I might really like doing this.... #craftsky #imadethis #fiberart 🧶 #ghiblifanart

Me, all day yesterday to my kids: it's hot commie summer lmao and everyone wants merch 15, this morning: oh btw I made this last night

The way people are losing their fucking minds over a proposal for a publicly owned grocery store should give you some insight into how a proposal for public libraries would be greeted today if they didn't already exist.

It's been so hot, I don't want any cooked food. I don't have the ingredients for gazpacho, but maybe that's good. The gazpacho police won't get me if I don't have any gazpacho.

Happy pride! 🌈💐

its my birthday friday! i am having a really rough week and if you wanna make a difference in my life you can help me get medical compression that keeps me from fainting in the heat <3 <3 #helpsky #mutualaid #POTS

I’ve just finished this 1930s style linen donkey toy just in time for my grandson‘s visit. All I need now is a name for him. Any suggestions peeps?

I knew my stash of googly eyes would be of use one day #MakeaTerribleComicDay2025

Yesterday the heat was unbearable on the top floor of our house (where and dog and I live). We have a heat pump, and fans but it wasn't even close to enough. I got one of those tiny air coolers. It is enough to make it tolerable. Thank goodness!

The BC Human Rights Tribunal found for the first time in Canada that failure to allow alternate work arrangements for an immunocompromised employee is discriminatory on disability grounds. It's not binding outside of BC. But courts and tribunals in other provinces will consider it in their rulings.

This painting I did for Pride last year is still in need of a home! ko-fi.com/s/3e5dedb08e #rainbow #acrylicpainting #lgbtq #loveislove #lgbtqartist #craftivist

People can say whatever they want about this platform but a person can say "i love spending 30 minutes with my husband before my day starts" or "I made chili for my neighbor" and not have thousands of people tell them to die.

I think we should start a hashtag for people who create and sell their creations. I propose #MakerMonday. If you are a potter, ceramicist, fiber artists (knit/crochet/quilt/spin/weave), make food you sell, or a traditional artist (digital or not), post your web link and use #MakerMonday.

Finished this Raven. Kinda hard to see all the black stitches but it’s gorgeous in person. Link to pattern in comments. #embroidery #threadart #threads #needlecrafts #artsandcrafts #raven

My mom's health issues from the last 4 years seem to be finally over/stabilized. She only has a few Dr appts left. Because it's hot and to celebrate, we got a lot of sushi! 😋😋

Hotter temperatures make breathing problems during sleep more likely, even when it's not extremely hot.
