I will pre-order this book.

You know what's nice? Getting your June #blacklabel from @lolabeanyarnco.com, ordering your JULY #blacklabel (because July is my birthday month!), and feeling dang proud because you used up a skein from your stash, so it's just replacement yarn....

We had so much fun! Fantastic time!

Today is a good day:
1. Didn't misuse my #signal account and release classified information*
2. Got my #blacklabel order from @lolabeanyarnco.com
*pro-tip: signal is great for sharing Wordle scores and such. 👍🏻

Absolutely gorgeous skein of multicolored yarn made from merino wool, yak, and silk. Colorway is Earth, Wind, and Fire "fantasy". Colors are moody rainbow.

Can't make this up. I'm pretty sure that "God's will" doesn't include ignoring the scientists and medical professionals that He made smart enough to create medications for diseases. WTF?

Still We Rise @lindsaymeyerharley.bsky.social · Mar 22

No words.

The parents of an unvaccinated 6-year-old girl who just died from measles in Texas say they have no regrets for refusing to vaccinate their child.

“The measles are good for the body... She’s better off where she is now.”
