I don’t have any pet photos to share for fun, mindless, non-political content. But I do have a helluva lot of needlepoint to share if you’re craft-inclined. 🧵
Haven’t gotten around to putting up the tree yet, but the stockings I embroidered for Jeff & I are up and ready.

So, y’know, attempts were made. 🎄

I haven’t posted a ton of progress pictures on embroidery projects as of late, because I decided to come back to one in particular that I’ve been working on, on and off, for over a year.

It’s going to be a pillow.

Eventually. 😂🧵

I forgot to take a photo of the apple cider donut cake before I cut a slice for myself. Whoops. 🍎 #Thanksgiving

I dialed back how much mac and cheese I made this year so it wouldn’t turn into a brick by day 5.

It turned out really deliciously. #Thanksgiving

Happy #Thanksgiving, AKA the only time of year I allow myself to buy Goldfish crackers so I can make the mac & cheese crust and not feel bad about eating the whole bag in a sitting.

This is one of the worst, most horrifying exposures we have ever seen. It is hard to overstate how bad the things that people are using tools like for are, and it's insane to pretend like these tools are anything other than nonconsensual porn machines

Me and who though
Btw about this from Lizza's reply: Olivia and I lived together for 4+ years (4 b'days, 4 Xmases, 4 anniversaries). That's like $1250 of jewelry per celebration. And her apartment was a writing studio. And I made an f-ton then. What was I supposed to do? Get her a lot of Gift Certificates from Kmart?
