Hey Internet, where do we like getting enamel pins made for not a million dollars these days?

Why has nobody invented a frozen knee brace yet? If I can’t have flying cars, I want one of those

We're all gonna die, and it'll hurt the whole time, but at least the memes will be fire.

City scene at dusk. Strings of light above a tan stucco wall. The wall has ceramics in alcoves and wicker, embroidered in serving pieces. There are flowers hanging from a pergola. Buildings in the background.

Tonight we’ll wander through the streets and note
The qualities of people.

In a stunning sign of how it’s going, the shop vocal stim today has become one of us singing “IT’S SIMPLY THE BEST” in increasingly off key and agonized ways.

We’d like our community to know what’s going on with the contracts being negotiated at OSF: here are the fliers you may see some of us offering you as you come to see previews this week!

The constant background hum of general self-loathing and unshakable conviction regarding the unsightliness of your own appearance and body is tiring, sure, but also makes for a mildly amusing post enjoyed by up to 0.5% of your followers every few weeks, so who's to say if it's a good or bad thing

Trump fires labor board officials, setting up legal fight President Trump fired National Labor Relations Board General Counsel Jennifer Abruzzo. In an unprecedented move, he also ousted Democratic board member Gwynne Wilcox, leaving the board with no quorum.

I've been thinking about this so much lately and how we're so socially conditioned here in the US especially to think that actions only matter if they're grand and heroic.

They don't. There's so much good, necessary, work to be done that will never make headlines. Find something and start. 💙

Hey Southern Oregon friends, put on your union swag and come out to support the striking Providence nurses this coming Monday, 12-1!

Brown paper sewing patterns pinned over a red boucle wool fabric with a wavy edge

I have been referring to this as the “hypothetically grained fabric” because “I *think* the grain is about here” but from this edge who could fuxkin’ tell?

One of my co-workers has the dubious distinction of never being assigned to the the Dumpster Fire Show in a season. I have *consistently* been assigned to the Dumpster Fire.

We are assigned to the same show this summer.

Place your bets now.

Reasons I’m qualified to work wardrobe for a sleep token tour (iykyk)

i have a friend re-homing a 3d printer for low or no cost because she got a better one and as much as I *really* want it, it just means my life would fill with tiny plastic nonsense, just as getting a silhouette cutter has filled it with tiny stickery nonsense.

Well, seems I got out of *there* just in time. I'll yell to the heavens forever: bureaucracy in universities keeps bad professors there and runs the ones who care about the students and their successes out.

How the ever loving fucking hell is my internet down AGAIN, Spectrum?

People are telling career artists to just make their art a hobby, and I’m trying very hard to read it as well-intentioned. Yes, you’re still a real artist if you have a day job. That’s normal.

Keep the freakshow talk to a careful minimum:
