Heartbreaking and horrifying to go to bed reading about the mass shooting at Brown University and wake up to read about the mass shooting at a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach. Thinking of the victims, their loved ones, and those affected by the hate that drove these attacks.

Romantic Warrior is so cool. Crazy for a horse to be able to win at the highest level for 4 straight years. 🏇
Romantic Warrior captured an unprecedented fourth consecutive Hong Kong Cup on Sunday at Sha Tin.

He's done! I'm really happy with how well he can sit and stand using the tail 🧶🧶

I think I need to test the pattern and make sure I counted all the stitches right before sharing it.

Progress! Finally chose a body design and got the tail, head and body connected.

Still working through options for the arms and legs, but happy with how well it sits up, even without legs. 🧶

Dealing with back pain by trying to come up with a pattern for a crochet fox. Really happy with the head, and leaning towards the more teardrop body shape. 🧶

Though I might redo the body again to fix the white; it's getting twisted somehow.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Ethical Diamond is my Balantina today - a couple $$ on the right longshot saves me from losing all my money on an otherwise terrible betting day haha

How about Rebel's Romance holding onto second there? He's so cool. 🏇

Ethical Diamond looked like he was shot from a canon in a stretch - he just flew around that field! 🏇🏇

That was so fun!

Great first day of the Breeders Cup, a couple nice favorites and some fun long shots.

Biggest betting highlight for me was Balantina - thanks to her I broke even for the day, so still have all my money to play with tomorrow 🏇🏇

Balantina is my post parade pick for the BC Juv. Fillies Turf.

I like Queen of Hawaii on paper and Switch in Love is super interesting. 🏇
