🥸🤪🤣😜🥸😵‍💫🥴🤢
Tweet from the joke of a WH press secretary: Karoline Leavitt I have just been informed that the highly respected Board of the Kennedy Center, some of the most successful people from all parts of the world, have just voted unanimously to rename the Kennedy Center to the Trump-Kennedy Center, because of the unbelievable work President Trump has done over the last year in saving the building. Not only from the standpoint of its reconstruction, but also financially, and its reputation. Congratulations to President Donald J. Trump, and likewise, congratulations to President Kennedy, because this will be a truly great team long into the future! The building will no doubt attain new levels of success and grandeur. 12:11 PM • Dec 18, 2025 • 5,488 Views

Sun peaking out to make the ice glow gold on our wintering azalea bush. Makes the sub-freezing temps & wind chills more tolerable.

My knitting 🧶 assistant keeping me warm as I near completion of the back of the Waterfall Coat by Debbie Bliss on this cold #Caturday. Working in stockinette stitch rather than garter, to highlight the beauty of Noro Tsubame yarn, color 47.
Large cinnamon and black striped cat draped, asleep over a corduroy-clad lap next to a knitting work in progress on wood needles. Yarn is working into wide, colorful stripes of purple, brown, cream, turquoise, pink, rose, navy, and various greens.

This is positively bizarre. Neither of these people even go to church.
A large orange-faced man in a suit & black overcoat holding hands with a woman in a leather jacket & pencil skirt holding hands but not looking at one another. There is a Fox News logo superimposed with a quote from the occupant of the White House: “Religion is coming back to America.”

Why in the bloody hell would the WH gov acct be posting something like this? Ick

This is the sweetest cat I’ve ever known. When I set out dinner, she will not eat a bite until she’s rubbed herself against my arm, in seeming gratitude. She purrs the moment she’s touched., greets us at the door, and gives nose boops. It lowers blood pressure 10 pts just being in the same room. 😍
Sleeping cat curled on a turquoise fleece cover on a cat bad. She is white on her lower legs, abdomen, chest, neck, arms& face; black & grey striped down her back, tail & haunches.

I also had one who’d stay on the mattress under the fitted sheet when we put in clean sheets.

#ShowMeYourKnits

On my needles this week are two pair of thick(er) socks commissioned for gift giving. This is a combo of SockEase Dark & Stormy color paired with a solid forest green (source unknown) to invoke camo look.

I wish they’d rid us of the “view full thread” compression in the Following feed. Most frustrating when it’s one hidden post requiring a click-through.

Meanwhile, there’s money for Trump’s potty
Truth Social post from the occupant of the White House, including before & after photos of the bathroom he references: I renovated the Lincoln Bathroom in the White House. It was renovated in the 1940s in an art deco green tile style, which was totally inappropriate for the Lincoln Era. I did it in black and white polished Statuary marble. This was very appropriate for the time of Abraham Lincoln and, in fact, could be the marble that was originally there! 1 ReTruth 5 Likes 贝 Oct 31, 2025, 12:02 PM 企

White sheet with images of cat silhouettes: some eating at blue bowls, some sitting, some standing. Several silhouettes are dark grey, but most are light grey.
