I just finished two very different projects. One was a second Prismatique scarf, made with sock yarn from Hue Loco’s Earthen collection - it’s so soft. I just love this stuff. I’m using some of the leftover yarn to make a few hats - I found a YouTube tutorial on how to improvise hat making, so behold the beginning of my first effort in that direction. The second of the two finished projects was a knitted book bag. I embellished it with a handful of crocheted hearts, and crocheted another “Love Yourself” mandala heart for a lined pocket to hold my reading glasses. I needed those little crocheted hearts to scatter all over the damned thing, as I am a total shit at knitting and there were a TON of glaring errors needing to be hidden. The whole thing was made with Hobbii’s 8/4 cotton yarn in #1 weight.

Keeping busy so I don’t go mad. I think it’s working, but I can’t be sure.

Also, HAPPY PRIDE, kids! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🌈🩷🩶🖤🤍🩵💋

My favorite Easter egg from GO3 is this - when Professor Anthony Crowley finds the astrophysics book written by Arthur Eddington - because David Tennant PLAYED Arthur Eddington in the lovely BBC movie, “Einstein & Eddington.” I know I’m a total nerd, but I really did love that.

My daughter owns a milk glass butter chicken, and it’s eating me alive with jealousy.

I loooooove getting rejected. People should reject more. It's the "maybes" and ghosting that's just like too much. A firm but polite "no" is infinitely more respectful of everyone's time and feelings. Can we just do that?

You guys know this is a pretty normal human want and not a special accomdation to be saved for people with autism right?

As soon as I understood what our heroes wished for above all things, my mind went immediately to the brilliant words of the Rubaiyat. If I had to sum up all of Good Omens, it would be this.

This matters. We are not going anywhere.

--

"Georgia Equality is celebrating the defeat of more than a dozen anti-LGBTQ+ bills as state lawmakers wrapped their legislative session in the early hours of April 3.

In a statement posted to social media, the advocacy group said all anti-LGBTQ+ legislation was halted, including House Bill 54, which would have prevented doctors from prescribing puberty blockers to minors and restricted gender-affirming care for transgender people.

“Despite underhanded tactics being employed in these last couple weeks, over 2,500 of us contacted our legislators and nearly 400 came out to the Capitol to make their voices heard in person,” the social media post said.

The bills that were defeated included:

SB 30: a bill to restrict access to medical care for trans youth

SB 39: a bill to deny coverage of medical care for trans people covered by the State Employee Health Benefit Plan

SB 74: a bill to criminalize librarians sharing LGBTQ+ content

SB 497: a forced outing bill for LGBTQ+ students

HB 104 and 267: bills further restricting trans youth from participating in sports

HB 671: a drag ban

HB 1210: a bill to create en exemption for non-affirming parents and caretakers to abuse trans youth"
