Thanks to Jessica Craven who is offering daily action round ups and also has state specific ones too. open.substack.com/pub/chopwood...

After their workshop in the How To Take Action Where You Are series in early Jan @thellpsx.bsky.social put together a list of resources that includes ways of doing activism/ resisting fascism in a disabled/ accessible way - docs.google.com/document/d/1...

TikTok took it down, so let’s share the shit out of this reading list. #HolocaustRemembranceDay #NeverAgainIsNow #BookSky #StateMediaCensorship

I'm not teaching my grad course 'Civil Resistance: How It Works' this semester. But here is an abridged version of the course schedule, readings, and films I used the last time I taught it (in 2022). Just in case it's useful. drive.google.com/file/d/14RRJ...

I’ll be making a few more sets of pattern weights for the Etsy shop in the coming weeks. Last round had requests for Nature/Cottage/WitchCore sets, along with fandom and sewing themed. I’ll stop making them once my supply of marble pieces runs out so taking suggestions for the last run.

Was planning to get started on holiday cookies today. Teen wants to bake for school as well. I did not set out NEARLY enough butter last night to come to room temp for both of us and all these butter heavy recipes. Thank goodness I stocked up last time I caught it on sale.

Today is one of those days when I really wish I was a better artist with pencil and paper. I have a costume concept I've been trying to work on for ages and I keep getting stuck designing it on paper. Guess it's back to the old draping, pinning and manipulating the fabric till I like something.

I was making too much food for 6 on Thanksgiving, so scaled back the meal plans that day. Which means TODAY I’m making deviled eggs, filled cupcakes and maybe a baked Brie. Gotta add some variety to the leftovers.

Thanksgiving is over and it’s Ferb’s favorite time of the year. He adores everything about holiday decorations. His brother Phineas isn’t as enthralled.

I have all sorts of tricks to combat arthritis in my hands for sewing and stuff. But what can a person do when feet are arthritic?? I’ve having some pretty strong pain days and am allergic to NSAIDS. Any suggestions for managing things on a heavy cooking day?

Another throwback mini that I was really pleased with the turnout. I was practicing gradients. Mini and paints from @reaperminiatures.bsky.social

The Cosplayer - The Character That time I decided to be a fancy, flashy crab! Other cosplayers would gift trinkets and broken jewelry to add to the growing glitter and gold. It became so heavy! #Tamatoa, from "Moana," @ajemaineclement.bsky.social

So very, very tired and sore. But Thespian Districts is over, 800-1000 teens a day fed and wrangled. Our troupe hosts each year and the kids worked so hard and were amazing. My thespian earned Superiors in all their events, is exhausted and very proud.

A fun aspect of switching platforms is being able to share a few older favorites. I painted this Air Scion gaming miniature from @reaperminiatures.bsky.social a couple years back, and I’m still pleased with how it turned out.

Facebook may be a hot mess, but then you have groups like “The Wedding Cookie Table Community” that is filled with amazing people. What an incredible labor of love to create this book of over 200 traditional and family favorite recipes.

👋🏽Hello bluest skies! I'm Noor! I'm a 30yo cosplayer of fantasy media like ATLA, LOTR & Star Wars. One day I hope to cosplay every character in ATLA!

Is it anxiety, food poisoning, or early stage pancreatitis? Guess my doctor can take a guess tomorrow. I don’t think it’s food poisoning anymore, but I do think that set it off 4 days ago.
