I would love to if wanted!
Started my first design of the year. Only designing things I want to wear this year, not just because it's "in".
I am crocheting, knitting, and soon, sewing my wardrobe with intention this year, and so far it's been the coziest I have been in a while.
Just make things for you sometimes pals <3
I added the Seahawks logo to my work's Slack emojis today and I think that covers my good deed for the day
SEAHAWKS!!!!
This isn't saying your twitch chat needs to be filled with news topics and up to date coverage all day, this is me, a non-binary/queer/disabled person, begging you to stop giving platforms to harmful people and listen to us when we ask you to stop. Make those changes. You're braver than you think.
Hey hi, just a friendly reminder, Twitch chats *are* in fact political, one because you can't stream or chat on Twitch if Ice murders you. And two, if you "avoid politics religiously" then you're a privileged asshole who doesn't care about anyone other than yourself. β¨ Hope this helps.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeareβs Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Happy Black History Month! Here's my list of assorted Black History facts that I find myself thinking about all the time.
I'm thinking about creating a new daily thread this year with powerful quotes from Black leaders and innovators. We'll see if I have the energy.
My goal for the month of February is to make one sale a week. Merch, handmade things, just one sale a week.
If you're interested in supporting my crochet or hand knit art and want something either handmade by me or with any of my merch, here's my shop <3

When I left my old job in the crochet world I thought I was going to lose everyone, and y'all stuck with me, or re-found me, and I can't thank you enough. <3 I love you.
Tomorrow is my 3 year anniversary on YouTube.
I went from 0 - 2700 subscribers in that time, with most of them within the past year.
I am sitting at 919,243 views. THAT'S ALMOST ONE FUCKING MILLION VIEWS. WHAT IN THE WORLD.
All that to say, thank you. (continued)
I was updating a few things in OBS and one of my sweet mods decided *then* was the best time to remind me I forgot to turn off my channel points when I ended stream..... I just about peed my pants when Catbug started screaming in my ears π
Anyway, if you're feeling similarly, you're not alone.
I don't have answers, and I don't know how to fix this, but you're not alone.
How do I balance all of this while protesting and calling my government officials and researching non-profits/mutual aid programs and still feeding myself 3 times a day and remembering to shower?
How am I supposed to focus on memes and graphic creation and video games and sentiment?
How do I comfort the community when they look to us for peace and fun and an escape, but also are terrified about being deported, or murdered.
The world is on fire.
There are multiple genocides occurring.
People are being murdered in the streets in broad daylight by people who are supposed to be "protecting" us.
And our current government isn't doing a single thing to help, just encouraging more violence.
I've been struggling to focus the past few weeks, and I was 99% sure it was because I ran out of my ADHD medication.
And that was partially true, probably. But I think, after being back on it for long enough, that it's a lot more than ADHD...
As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.β¨β¨ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.
SAVED! Thank you!!!
Just in case you need a knitting project today, I found a pretty good one.

I like donuts, but donuts are political because you can't eat donuts when the donut shop is also now the scene of a brutal murder BECAUSE ICE KILLED SOMEONE AGAIN.

When @dizzydesigns.bsky.social agreed to take on my emotes & character art & stream scenes, I knew it was gonna be good, but come on ππππ«Άπ»π«Άπ»π«Άπ»ππππ₯Ήπ₯Ήπ₯Ή
(Also, paying real artists to design and make art because itβs their dream (& you should want to support that) is was cooler than AI - just saying.)
