Juneteenth went uncelebrated by the White House. That alone says everything you need to know about this regime.

I remember studying about Vichy France during the Nazi years in law school: being lawful is not the same thing as being moral.

#Juneteenth is a good reminder to buy yarn (and other goodies) from black-owned businesses. Check out I Feel Like Dyeing on Etsy, Wild Star Fibers, The Crochet Cove, and @sassyblackyarns.bsky.social for a celebratory skein or two (or three)! 🧶 #knitsky #crochet #knitting

“Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.” Yesterday, you were the stars, your compassion, your courage, your pride in standing up for what’s right lit up the darkness. This is the America we believe in. 💚✊

Whoa! Hats off to ABC News reporter Matt Gutman for keeping his cool yesterday. This LAPD officer needs to be relieved of duty if he can’t handle an alleged “touch” without snapping.

A Democratic Mayor arrested. A Democratic Congresswoman indicted. A Democratic Senator tackled and detained. A Democratic State Representative killed. A Democratic State Representative in critical condition. We can all see where this is going.

The East Coast has shown up, 2.4 million and counting, with massive turnouts in small towns across the country. Shoutout to the Carolinas, Georgia, and Ohio for showing up strong!

Unless they deserve it.🧶⚔️

Knitting🧶 at the physical therapy office before my appointment. Hoping I can just get through a couple of appointments and then do the PT from home after that. Yay for being a hermit in the middle of nowhere!

Who needs more pride knitting patterns? I've got a bunch! knitting.craftgossip.com/knitting-pat... 🧶🏳️‍🌈

During the French Revolution, women sat and knitted while watching the executions. Saturday, June 14, the day of the orange ego parade, is also KNIT IN PUBLIC day. I have extra needles if anyone needs them. (and plenty of yarn)

When they think no one is looking. *Cops damaging their own cars?

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Hypocrisy. Leave it to Leavitt.

Dear Members of the Military, You can conscientiously object to his war on America.

Deploying the military on U.S. soil against Americans was on page 555 of Project 2025. This was always their plan, and people voted for it anyway. America failed an open book test.

WTF? Trump is now threatening the American people. He warned protesters to stay away from his birthday/military parade in D.C. this Saturday, claiming anyone who shows up to protest “hates our country” and will be met with “very heavy force.” This is authoritarian behavior, plain and simple.

This is why the threat he'll use the insurrection act or martial law to interfere with or halt the election should be taken seriously. Rather than giving him the benefit of the doubt you should always imagine the worst possible thing he could do and expect that that is a reasonable possibility.

Putting this WIP crocheted cardigan aside for a bit. I like the pattern, but this yarn isn't right for it. Got the front and back panels done, trying to decide if I want to continue with it or frog the whole thing. 🧶 #pensive #yarntherapy #yarnaddict #crochetsky #knitsky

Thinking about an old friend that isn't part of my life anymore. I miss the laughs and the comfortable coexistence. I hope you're doing okay, ocean drop.

Had a secret discussion with one of my 4e players about upcoming plot points for the campaign. They told me, "You're definitely the best DM I've ever had." Trying not to cry from relief/imposter syndrome/embarrassed pride in myself. 🐉⚔️🎲📖 #d&dshenanigans #foreverdm #d&d4e #dungeonsanddragons #ttrpg

I was serenaded the cantina song by a life-size R2D2 today. Highlight of my month. #starwars

Thinking about the little tardigrade tattoo that one of my exes had. It was cute, and his face lit up when talking about it. Good memories.

You know you're a forever DM when you read the monster manual/bestiary for fun at bedtime. 🐉⚔️🎲📖 #ttrpg #dungeonsanddragons #pathfinder #foreverdm #lightreading #bookworm

Trigger warning Cringe 😱 🧶 #knit

Tell me to finish my WIPs instead of starting a new project🤣🧶 I normally am fully fine with having a ton of WIPs going at a time, but I have 3 I need to finish - one is a gift, one is a simple hat, and one has been in timeout for long enough. #yarnismytherapy #yarnaddict #knitsky #crochetsky

Finished this beanie while watching some Dimension20.🧶🐉⚔️🎲 #yarntherapy #yarnaddict #crochet #dimension20 #d&d

Wore it out today for the first time, one of my metas had a roller derby bout. Got lots of compliments on it, and I felt really good for actually making/finishing something for myself.🧶 #yarntherapy #knitting #crochet #yarnaddict

A todas mis amixes del crochet hispanohablantes (and no hispanic too) les traigo un artículo con la breve historia del #crochet🧶 pásenle a lo barrido en mi web solmemecastillo.art/que-es-el-cr... Miuchas gracias por el apoyo :´)

It doesn’t matter what you make or how good you are at it. Just keep on creating! #knitsky #craftsky 🧶 #yarn #wool youtu.be/2XZ9z6OewR0?...

Freehanded this tank top for myself out of lace-weight yarn - knit the bottom black section in the round, crocheted the top rainbow part and straps. Just a few ends to weave in, then I might wear it this weekend! 🧶 #yarntherapy #knitting #crochet #yarnaddict

It's springtime, bitches!🤣🐞🌿

I actually finished March's squares for the Berroco mystery knit along only slightly into April, but didn't take pictures in a timely manner. The intarsia square was so close to the Pride flag that I made an extra one. Downside: so many ends to weave in... 🧶 🌈 #berrocoYarn #vintageMKAL25

There it is…
