Okay but Serious Post for autistic and otherwise neurodiverse people in my orbit for whom today has been hard:

I'm grateful you exist. Your life is a good thing.
Finally got the rest of the yarn to finish my first grandchild’s blanket. Not the best picture but the only one I got before wrapping. Now to await the arrival. #bskyknits #knitting #knit

One tiny set done. This is not any kind of announcement. This baby will wear all the colours and I had this 🧶 left from another project 🥰

And then there's this nonsense. WE CANNOT SUBSTITUTE ANIMAL TRIALS WITH AI. We don't even know some of the basics of the immune system bc it's so fricking complicated. AI is based on what we know. Man, I was happier on the plane without wifi. Utter nonsense.
"At FDA we're accelerating drug approvals so that you don't need to use primates or even animal models. You can do the drug approvals very, very quickly with AI."
Finished apart from sewing on buttons. Beautiful yarn from #skeinmachine Eden Hill, SA

Any other #noviceknitters or #beginnerknitters made the mistake of not buying all the #yarn you need for a project and then found it’s on back order? So while I wait for that I began this cute hoodie for #grandbaby #bskyknits #knitting 🧶
It’s official.
I’m a granny-to-be 👵❤️
#knitting cables for the first time ever in expensive wool/cashmere/silk, for a huge, baby blanket, is a challenge but here’s hoping it’s finished by September.

That’s what she said, yeah?
I’m in Australia and caught hep a as an 8yo from a camping ground toilet. 6 months off school extremely unwell. Slow transition back to everyday life. Liver problems ongoing.

Back in 2022 Peter Malinauskas made some comments about nuclear energy that were misinterpreted and over-simplified by our illustrious press corps. But he very quickly made it very clear that he absolutely did not support energy production from nuclear power in Australia. Dutton is lying again.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.

Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.
It’s been a while since a #knitting update. Since then I found out I’ll be a granny soon. So I’ve been practising on free wool and patterns from my #buynothing page. Here’s my first try at a sock.

As an #Australian, seeing the footage and photos of the #handsoff rallies is awesome ☺️

💥 BREAKING: At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple. An anti-DEI proposal from the NCPPR received less than 1 percent of votes.
