This is why I have no sympathy whatsoever for anti-intellectuals who complain when discussion posts use too much academic language. "You can't expect me to whip out a dictionary every time you post—" BITCH I LOOKED UP "AHEGAO" FOR YOU. OUT OF THE GOODNESS OF MY HEART.

🧵 I’ve been tatting (frivolité) for a while now — it’s quiet, meditative, and surprisingly addictive.

A simple thread turns into lace. Knot by knot.

I know how hard it is to start when every diagram looks confusing and you’re not even sure which shuttle to buy.

So I put together a beginner-friendly guide — just what I wish I had when I started.

It’s a PDF, with photos, slow steps, and a little project at the end.

If you’ve ever wanted to try tatting, this might help.

No pressure — just sharing something I love.

You can find it here:

Welcome to the delicate and creative world of shuttle tatting! This beautifully designed eBook will guide you through the basic techniques o

Ok this is the post that put the "we should get into lace making" brainworm into my head so im going to thank/blame you for the fact I just bought a tatting shuttle and lace thread

Have you talked to him for more than a few minutes?

Yes, he has like a... Well, how many minutes is more than a few?

Greater than 12.

No, I don't think hit 12, but it's been three to five, a dozen times.

Yeah, he's solid in the three to five, I get that. Anyone's great in three to five.

Not Ethrand Tachonis, is not.

I maintain that the best summation of my feminist beliefs are that men and women are not fundamentally different. There are a few quantifiable differences if you average out every woman and every man, but they are not qualitative. And most of them are socially constructed, and would be fixed if we started treating men and women the same. Neither is inherently smarter, neither is inherently kinder, neither is inherently more stoic or stronger or angrier or softer. Everyone is obsessed with the differences between women and men, with finding them and creating them and distancing themselves from the "other half". It's fucked up

i know most leftists agree that everybody should have a right to food, water, shelter, and healthcare but i think a vitally important fifth pillar is privacy. people should not be compelled to be tracked, monitored, or to share personal space with others to access their other essential rights

"If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear" is and always has been fascist rhetoric everyone.

Happy to see this in places where I usually find white nationalist stickers.

And please please please remember this – it is not not not all or nothing. You don't have to stand in front of a machine gun or throw a bomb to resist, to stop disinformation, to protect.

Grit in gears stops machines too. Yes bombs are faster but the casualties are far worse, so grit in the machine, sand in the gears, we are each a grain of sand.
