I was a CNN addict for well over a decade, several years ago. Now they don't have enough money to pay me to watch it.

Not only did I complete a sleeve and cuff on my metallic Mithril brioche crochet leaf cardigan, but BONUS! I won yarn chicken and might have just enough yarn at the end to sew the seam! This is a game I very rarely win. Guess the elves smiled at me because of the friggin' sleeve I had to cut off. 🧶

So, apparently Trump said today that he was going to put Fuckerberg in Federal prison if he gets re-elected. Saying that was a GINORMOUS fuck up, and I absolutely love that for him.

Never mind that I agree that is exactly where Fuckerberg belongs, that's entirely beside the point.

I hate this article. Also, I'm in to take one. The cockatoo might not like it but this is an emergency, she'll just have to deal. Also, I have plenty of yummy mice.

And here I am, hater of all things summer, making my 4th cardi in a row (with another sitting in time out, taunting me), with several more cardigans on my dance card. Where did I go wrong in my life? It's not like my masochistic yarn hoarder self doesn't own fingering weight yarn. But nooooo... 🧶

"leaving as millions..." Proofread much? I'd offer my copy editor services if this native New Yorker hadn't watched her beloved Times devolve into something beyond despicable. There's not enough money in the world. Mine was not an easy mind to change but you've managed to do a very thorough job.

Oh yeah, almost done the first one now and paying a lot more attention to what I'm doing! I have met my match in truly unfroggable yarn.

I feel your pain, I'm in the same boat. I just had to *cut off* a sleeve I started. Never even had to do that with mohair.

Ha! It's a deceptive green. Yeah, not doing this with fuzzy yarn again unless I feel the need for penance for my evil ways.

It can't be faster than the last one because this yarn just is not friendly. Frogging a single leaf can take upwards of a half hour, even though I'm very used to frogging yarn with halo. It's very delicate and worse than mohair. As pretty as it is, I wouldn't ever use it for this stitch again.

Whut? How on earth could resigning wipe out anything at all? Resigning would preserve his remarkable legacy. This statement seems to bring into question his motive for all that he's done... did he do it for the sake of good or just to get reelected? I am disturbed by this statement.

The thing I keep coming back to on this post is “bloodless if the left allows it to be.” He’s not saying “bloodless if the left doesn’t fire the first shot.” He’s saying “bloodless unless the left wins.” He’s advocating for violence if he doesn’t like the outcome of the election.

Abortions rights supporters in three states — Arizona, Arkansas and Nebraska — said this week that they had secured enough signatures to put measures on the November ballot that would enshrine some abortion access in their state constitutions.
