Decided to take a break from doom scrolling and watch Les Mis while working on the neverending stockinette body of my Dissent Sweater. It has taken 2 and a half hours to watch 1 and a half hour. Open concept living room/kitchens absolutely suck.

I work on the corporate ops side of Home Health. My staff haven't seen an outage - yet. This is definitely something I am monitoring very closely. This will have disastrous consequences. My company alone has a massive Medicaid population that will be devastated. My heart hurts.

New motivation to knit faster on my Dissent sweater, so I can knit this when I get it finished. I am loving the colors I chose, they're so cozy! #knit #knitter #knitsky www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

With the new proposed banned book list, it looks like I need to increase my book buying from 1 banned book per new book. I'm going to need more shelves. #booksky #books #bannedbooks

Meta - gone TikTok - gone BlueSky and Reddit are my only forms of social media as of today. I've spent my last day of actual democracy catching up on Call the Midwife while working on my Dissent sweater and trying to not dissolve into a giant puddle of panic. #knit #knitter

TikTok got me through one of the worst depression episodes of my life. I was never a creator, just a consumer. But I learned, connected, was outraged, and felt hope. This is not about data. It never was. It's control, plain and simple. We can't stop fighting, we can't give up. πŸ’™ #tiktokrefugee

5 rounds from finishing the color work on my Dissent sweater. So of course I get to the end of the round to find I screwed up - in the 2nd pattern repeat of the round. Time to drink tea, contemplate ripping back 500+ stitches of double stranded lace weight, while questioning my life choices. #knit

Happy New Year all. Here's to a year of spreading kindness, seeking out joy, and fighting on the right side of history. πŸ’™

RIP Mr. President. May your legacy continue to be a shining light.

I'm certain the energy I spend rearranging my bookshelves could be spent on something more productive. Is that likely to happen? No, but at least I can admit it. #booksky #books #ineedmoreshelves #reader

I know everyone has said that Octavia Butler is clearly psychic, but I wasn't convinced Parable of the Sower and Parable of the Talents would be THIS dead on. Amazing books, but definitely adding to my realistic dystopian terror shelf. #booksky #reader #books

Happy Holidays friends. I hope you all enjoy a restful day full of love. I haven't been posting much due to work and school stress, but my goal for 2025 is to do better and be more involved in the fight against fascism. That said, I am going to enjoy a moment of capitalism. My family gets me.

The problem with my reading habits is I always end up starting a new book approximately an hour before I need to be in bed. I already know I am not going to want to put this one down.

I have *thoughts* after the past week, but I'm too mentally drained to actually turn them into a cohesive post. I do think we are heading into the early stages of French Revolution Part II: US Edition. Anyway, have some Caturday love from this ding dong.

Weeks like this seriously make me question why I went into healthcare management of all careers. I'm exhausted and it's only Tuesday. Lily picture, because adorable.

I've been knitting with headphones on all afternoon. Decided I should probably finish my homework, so got up to stretch, get my laptop, etc. Take my headphones off and I am officially out of the game on Dec 1st because my father in law is apparently in holiday music mode. Damnit.

Heh, this was a fun distraction. blueskyroast.com

So I decided what to knit - Dissent, in my Miss Bab's - appropriate resistance kniitting. But now that I have hunted down the needles, my cables, my yarn winder, and my swift, I have zero energy to actually start the sweater. Fuck you, Lupus. www.andrearangel.com/shop/dissent...

πŸ”₯Based on his history of being anti-VAX, RFK JR has the capacity to harm more Americans than any of the other cabinet picks. Although I find Dr. Oz pretty repulsive based on his conflict of interest in holding substantial millions in Medicare Advantage & running the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid.πŸ”₯

COWARDS!!!!!!!!! Call them out every single time.

I can totally get behind this.

If we're not calling the 4B movement "Batten Down the Snatches", what are we even doing
