Working on my first cabled knitting project and learned that a short wooden needle with a thinner center can be used to hold and transfer stitches. So I thought, "Why not make one?!" Well, maybe because I'm a lathe newb and take AGES to make anything. But I'm so excited to replace the metal DPN.

(Preface: I'm getting good medical care and am healthier by the day.) Due to a couple of flukes and some post-op blood thinner, I'm currently severely anemic. Had to have a blood transfusion last week (also, God bless blood donors ❤️).

My teenager and I discussing, "centaurs have six legs and are therefore insects." He reasons that they don't exoskeletons so I say, "What if they're wearing armor?" He insists they NEVER wear armor, so I try to generate an image. Midjourney really, REALLY doesn't know what centaurs look like. 😱

Have some free time today, so I think I'll give myself purple highlights, explore crochet colorwork & textured amigurumi, do homework for my MongoDB class, work on my first knitted cabling project, listen to an audiobook, make double chocolate muffins, and play Minecraft. Totally doable, right‽ 🤭

This marketing for Anchor embroidery floss is beautifully targeted. They have nailed the pain points of using their competitor's product. (Not shown: it's only 10¢ more, which works out to 14% more money for 25% more product—intuitively a bargain.) I'm going for it the next time I'm floss-shopping.

I fantasize about a day when a coworker or client says, "Wow! I really appreciate that you used an en-dash in your number range!" #typographyNerd #pedant

I am contemplating a truly ridiculous kitchen organization craft project and loving every minute of it. It will involve laser cutting and making my own straws and Who Gives a Crap toilet paper wrappers and an adorable tiny drawer, I think. Oh, and a goodly amount of wood glue...

I just discovered flexible silicone LED strips that mimic the look of neon. My husband is shuddering somewhere and has no idea why. #crafts #newCrafts #moreCrafts #allTheCrafts

A new companionable activities the kid and my husband now engage in is satirical "rich people" talk. 😂🙄 It's a little weird to wander into a nasal, drawly conversation about the benefits of investing in a congressperson, but a teenager and their parent hanging out, both laughing—that's a win, right?
