I love historical costumes, costume making, embroidery, and other textile arts.
I once tried to open a new Exacto knife with a plastic cap over the blade. Reminding myself to be CAREFUL, I began to pull the cap off....it wouldn't move so I applied more pressure...
When it finally popped off, my arms were so tense that my hands snapped back and the blade tip impaled my finger.

As a friend across the pond, thanks for not giving up on us! I know I'm far from the only one here in the US who is horrified at everything That Man is doing at home and abroad, and are doing what we can to move the country back in a positive direction.

Ugh. I’m a millennial and I remember a few years ago seeing the handwringing headlines about “why aren’t millennials buying diamonds??” (But we weren’t saving money responsibly because we were spending it all on avocado toast) Stop blaming the next generation for economic anxieties they didn’t make.

RIGHT?? Like, I’ve finally found a beautiful house after looking to escape my old one for years, I’ve got good friends, I’m financially comfortable, and I keep trying to tell myself that I’m allowed to be happy and live my life
