just sayin: always down for a sticker exchange.
thanks to the new yorker who hit me up for an old-fashioned penpal exchange after finding an older @craftexchange post wherein I mentioned ISO stickers.
remains true!

WIP of a bonnet. Iām making the Chestnut Bonnet by Yevheniia Pyroh using some fyberspates 4ply yarn. Doing the i-cord almost broke me because it looks like a flat twisted noodle until youāve done about 5 or so centimetres!
happy pride month š³ļøāš
There is so much good local music yāall!!!!!!!
I say this with genuine wonder every time I go out and see local small shows because for 8 hours a day every weekday, I am forced to listen to the Todayās Top 100 Pop Hits and Iām so tired!! Itās not just that I have to listen to the same songs over and over every day (which I hate) but theyāre so uninteresting!!!!!!!!!!! Genuinely good music exists in the world and people are making good new music right now!!
not gonna say it again!!!!
a BOG is a wetland that is acidic
a FEN is a wetland that is alkaline
FINALLY someone said it!!!!!!!
a SWAMP is a wetland whose vegetation consists of trees or other woody plants
a MARSH is a wetland with other forms of vegetation
#A LITTLE LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK
a MANGAL is a swamp whose soil concentrates high amounts of salt and very low amounts of oxygen, supporting little else than mangrove trees
a PEATLAND is a wetland whose soil concentrates decaying organic matter, becoming peat
Oh yeah baby, keep coming at me with watery environmental states
yoooooooo. @scrixels may have created a monster with this post. šš¤
for anyone worried about language barrier, I found* both of these books super clear and easy to understand without being able to read any japanese.
por ejemple
I also read this blog tutorial, and am looking forward to more complex designs once I've gotten it down.
about to switch colors! š¤©š¤
those embroidered thimble rings are GORGEOUS!!! how did you make them? :0
the shiiiinneeee, its so prettyyy!!!
tyyy!
I'm sorry, I'm going to infodump about them because I love them! the shine is because I use silk thread!
I'll try to illustrate this this because it's hard to explain, but ngl my photo taking is a bit sporadic so these are all from different projects!
so this is the base of them. a strip of card (if using as a thimble: measure around the middle of your middle finger) with a strip of BIAS CUT woven fabric wrapped around it.
then you need (a) padding and (b) to mark out a (usually even) number of segments. I'm doing 16ths at the moment, but 8 is probably the most common.
I've done a bunch of experimenting different ways of doing both of these, unsure on the best yet tbh! traditionally (a) is silk fibre
the first stitches, basically match up the lines in zigzag patterns. you can get an incredible amount of pattern out of sewing little zigzags. mine and all of these below are silk, but I've also used all sorts of thread, and even used 8/2 bamboo for a bracelet once
look at them.....
the colour..the geometry..
I hope this somewhat makes sense!
totally inspired, I am now on my own kick.
I have been stitching a bunch this week, using pliers to pull my needle through doubled up denim, thinking about a thimble-but-not-a-fingertip-thimble:
am two books (both in japanese but both easy to follow along without reading any of by the numbers š) and one photo/written tutorial (god bless the blogspot-o-sphere of 2013) in and about to begin stitching!
if (when) I love it I will actually dedicate some of my precious japanese silk thread stash (market souvenir from Tokyo visit) and make a complex one (or twelve š)
Hi friends! I will be tabling at Olympia Zine Fest this coming Saturday! Charlie is a disabled nonbinary artist/zinester currently working & living on Duwamish land.

A Demonstratorās Guide to Operational Security
Fighting Back, Staying Free
https://crimethinc.com/opsec
How do police and federal agents identify and target those who participate in demonstrations? What countermeasures can we take to hinder this kind of repression? In this anonymously submitted text, one affinity group explores how they address these questions.
Once upon a time, only those who intended to engage in high-risk confrontational protest activity had to concern themselves with surveillance and security. Today, surveillance and policing are becoming much more invasive and arbitrary. Even if you never violate any law, the state may nonetheless seek to make an example of you. Everyone who might participate in a demonstration at some point should familiarize themselves with the security protocols that radicals have developed over the years.
The cushion runs out in August. The CEOs already know. Here's what is actually happening to the American economy ā and the question no polit
long read, but thoughtful and thought-provoking.
This Pride Month, weāre celebrating the beauty of diversity above and below the surface. The ocean is full of vibrant life in every color imaginable. It reminds us that nature thrives when everyone has space to belong.
Environmental advocacy and the LGBTQ+ rights movement share a common purpose: protecting vulnerable communities, caring for the spaces we all call home, and creating a world where we all can flourish. Our world is brightest when people can live authentically, love freely, and be embraced for who they are. From rainbow reefs to shimmering tides, diversity makes our blue planet stronger, healthier, and more inspiring.
Hereās to protecting our ocean, uplifting every voice, and honoring the colorful communities that make this world so wonderful.
currently stuck between referring to myself as a progressive roboticist or a progressive cyberneticist. I prefer the latter, but no one quite understands what I mean by that. Poll time.
