Really want to join the conversation in here but have had a truly terrible week, losing my Best Girl unexpectedly at the age of 11. Thought we would have more time with her.
note to self: don't just start knitting with ready caked yarn, rewind it first. 8 rows to go and now I'm dealing with yarn barf 😭

knitting mojo is creeping back. finished a Dotted Rays using scraps from an advent calendar (ignore the face, I am not sleeping well) and now have a Romi Hill shawlette on the needles using a gradient yarn. Next will be Cadjeaute slippers as I've almost worn through my last pair!

When writers’ rooms don’t know what to do with a female character and just shrug and say “Let’s just give her a baby?”, this has real-world consequences because it reinforces the idea that “all women = mothers”.
Please quote or share your actually unpopular pop culture takes with me, I genuinely love hearing them.
My actually unpopular pop culture opinion is that I never liked Breaking Bad because it’s one of the most popular “middling white guy” power fantasy shows, and I could never get past that.

Trying to summon the energy to exit the car and go into the office. Need much more sleep and someone to pay me to do that.

There is a terf mute list available, you can use it to auto mute a whole list of the assholes.

Currently following anyone who appears to not be a TERF or who has cats prominently featured. This *will* be a nicer place than the other one.

Just finished watching the race - totally unsurprisingly the FIA have closed the loophole for future races after allowing RB to take advantage of it this time. Got to give RB credit, they saw it existed & they used it but ffs. It's just so painful seeing how on it they are compared to the rest 🏁

Initial impressions:
💜 lots of fibre 🧶 people!
💜 no gifs - going to have to start using my words instead of using Martin Sheen/Richard Schiff/Nathan Fillion
💜 not much F1 - this might be a good thing, nobody with a profile pic of MV telling me to "cry more"
💜 can't see any ads - is this real?!
