I’m knitting, sewing, sleeping, feeling constant existential dread
I started making a new note every time I thought of something I wanted to make because so many ideas I just forget, and it’s going great but my new problem is that it turns out I have a LOT more ideas then I realized and I want to make everything

I’m finally on the finishing touches of my rabbit cardigan, I just need to attach the buttons. I was so sure I needed to buy buttons but it turns out I had more buttons in my stash then I thought… #knitting

We’ve been rewatching all
Predator movies and seeing The Predator (2018) and Prey (2022) back-to-back is truly something huh.

"achillean" always amuses me as a descriptor because does it mean books about gay men being gay or does it mean more like oh you shot me in the leg you shot me in the fucking leg you fuck why would you do that, that's my goddamn ankle, my one weak spot, now I'm going to die you asshole

The old Gamera movies are so incredibly charming, I love that Gamera crawls instead of walking on two legs and the models and miniatures used when filming are so great

It's Don't Argue Inside Your Head With Other People Friday. Today, if you find yourself arguing inside your head w/someone who's not present, or whom it's not safe or not fair for you to argue with, gently move your mind away. Do this as many times as you need.

Yoshi’s Island is one of my favourite games and I can’t stop thinking about this
Development files for Yoshi's Island reveal that Yoshi was originally meant to have a human voice. Lines for transforming into his various forms, including unused ones like Tree Yoshi, have been found.

Every step of this cardigan has been a learning process, but the majority of the learning is “plan your bloody work before you start even when you don’t feel like it”. But tbh sometimes I just need to begin somewhere, or I will just never start at all! #knitting

Did you know that AI “art” is labor theft?
Hi. I’m a professional traditional artist of over 15 years & I was able to make a decent living until 3 years ago.
In May 2023, over 50 of my paintings had been scraped without my consent to fuel AI image generators like Midjourney.

While I often have the normal amount of second guessing my knits (or crafts in general), the intarsia cardigan I’m currently working on is jumping between “this is a horrible waste of time” and “actually this might turn out ok??” with incredible speed #knittingproblems

I finished the Una sweater and it turned out better than I expected considering how long it’s been in the unfinished-pile. The construction is so neat! #knitting

Another day another UFO to finish. I started this with leftover yarn gifted to me by a friends mum, the yarn ran out and since it’s discontinued I bought some “similar but not the same”-yarn to finish the ribbing with. I don’t love it but I ran out of options and don’t want to frog.

I took a break from playing Avowed because 1. Nausea, but mostly 2. I regret how shit went down like 15 hours back and I think I need to find an earlier save and just replay it 💀
