Precisely this. I’m my own boss (I make wooden toys) and left to my own devices, “Time to Make the Yo-Yos” becomes all the time. There’s always something else that needs to be done/ordered/tinkered with. I can’t imagine also learning and doing every other thing.
52 SENATE REPUBLICANS VOTED AGAINST REINING IN TRUMP'S WAR WITH IRAN Photos of each one.
As Trump’s $1.38 BILLION PER DAY war of choice continues with no clear purpose, and soldiers and civilians continue to lose their lives for it, it’s good to remember that Republicans could have ended this last week, and they chose not to.
At last some good news!
$11 billion on Trump's illegal war in Iran. And counting. That no American wants to spend.
Where are the billions for housing, hospitals, or health care that the American people actually want?
Quick reminder. #CountdownToChristmas

After much deliberation and a grueling interview process, I’m pleased to announce that I’ve accepted a new job and will not need any financial support from my parents to cover the high costs of childcare going forward. #AmericanDream #ThisIsYourCity
oh so when rfk jr has a worm in his brain it's "bad" but when dax has a slug in her she's "the most beautiful person i've literally ever seen in my life" and "early queer representation in television"
Well, yeah, they’re ICE for a reason. Because they can’t get employment elsewhere. Because they’re idiots, abusers and perverts.
❤️ Oh I can’t wait to see the results, and nice cameo by Brad’s!

Considering the usual suspects have advised us right into a fascist dictatorship, I'm gonna need them to shut the fuck up forever
When all is said and done, if we survive, we need to open a “Mainstream Media Hall of Shame” where posts like this will be framed on the wall so nobody forgets how we got here
It’s formally defined as the distance between, “Man, look how perfect that is, it’s a damned shame it’s in a place where no one will ever see it!” and “ Damnit. Well, no one will ever see it anyways”.
Especially useful in joinery and other #woodworking.
I’ve invented a new unit of measurement. It’s called the microgajillimeter. It’s an SI unit, of course. #Woodworking

Just sayin’.
Good morning, @tardiscabinets.bsky.social and Happy Halloween from Seattle, where it’s quarter to seven in the predawn hours, and a balmy 9°C. I hope your day is lovely!
It’s Market Day! Happy Halloween!

I love making them, yo-yos are so much fun!

Love these panel clamps! I wish they made a size even smaller, like down to 3” wide or less. I make a lot of yo-yos, and my standard panel is 3”x25”x3/4”, which I then plane down and chop up for yo-yos.

72 days until Santa starts his ride!
I’ve got train cars on the bench this morning, a special project (Take II), a Widow, and various and sundry miscellany.

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?
Dems. Wanna get your polling out of the gutter? Stop talking about redrawing house maps in blue states and do it. Go big. Don't match them seat for seat. Blow them out of the water. Then endorse Mamdani. You're welcome.
Love, Allison
Four wooden cabeese (the plural of caboose, obviously) in progress sit on a well-loved and well-used workbench with diffuse morning light from a window behind, and a mortising chisel in the foreground.

Yeah, I saw that. The fucking mango moron is fucking up every goddamned thing.
Oh, they’re very fun!
They’re a lot of fun!
