Brain go fast
All my family members loved their Christmas presents and even my picky cousin who doesnât like hardly anything and hardly says anything opened the Lego scarf I made him and exclaimed âwow! Cool!â
Iâm officially done crocheting my stained glass sweater vest and I couldnât be happier with how it turned out!
Just finished felting these lilies and glued on pin backs!
I also finished this shawl yesterday, complete with tiny tassel!
And Wednesday I made this freestanding lace orchid on my embroidery machine!
It started out with a
How did end up like this?
My carpal tunnel is acting up after a week of working on this piece, but I love how it turned out!
Finished crocheting this shawl today! Still have to block it, but I love the way the colors transition and I am super pleased with how all the different patterns look. (Not my pattern. Pattern is available for free here.)
Hot off the hook! A Lego scarf!
Still gotta soften it and block it a little but I love how it turned out.
Everything is like âQUEER historyâ and âList of QUEER young adult booksâ or âTop 10 QUEER moviesâ and queer this and queer that and for the love of god please just say LGBT.
And faster to pronounce if you are talking instead of writing.
Itâs not more inclusive, and if your excuse of using a slur as a blanket term is âitâs faster to sayâ, GENUINELY what is wrong with you
Itâs called economĂa del lenguaje.
Itâs also the respected academic term?? The acronym isnât static and itâs usage is varied by things like generational difference, location, and knowledge of the community. Even just in the U.S. in the last few decades the common usage gone from GLBT to LGBT to LGBTQ, to LGBTQA/LGBTQIA/LGBTQIAP/etc (Which, let me tell you as someone who has given presentations in the past using these updated acronyms, are all real mouthfulls), to LGBT+.
Also yes, queer is more inclusive! Especially coming at it from an academic standpoint, people didnât always use or identify with the terms we use now and you canât always try to cram them into our modern perceptions of sexuality. We can argue for years about whether a famous historical figure was gay or bisexual or straight and trans or whatever, but if we can all agree that they were somehow queer then using that term allows us to move past the debate and into productive discussion. And not everybody everywhere shares the same terms for sexual and gender identity, or even the same concepts of those things, so queer really is a more inclusive term in a lot of cases.
Like yeah if youâre talking specifically about gay or trans people you can just say gay or transgender, but if youâre talking about more than one identity or someone who doesnât conform to our perceptions of âLGBT,â or a person or people whose identity you donât know, queer is just the better word.
âThatâs SO gayâ, âOh my god, youâre not a LESBIAN, are you?â
Your words are slurs, too. Why do you get your words, but I donât get mine? What makes you so special?
Iâm here, Iâm queer, go fuck yourself.
queer is not a slur, stop drinking the TERF koolaid
every time one of you fools spout about âqueer is a slurâ a terf laughs because their fucking plan to make that word âtabooâ is fucking working you dipshit.
I did not get my degree in queer literature for you all to keep pulling this bullshit.
baby gays,,,, i beg of you to learn your queer history and stop listening to terf bullshit
every single one of our labels has been used as a slur against us.
terfs and -phobes are always going to try and hurt us with what we identify as. but the fact remains these are OUR labels and always have been.
weâre here, weâre queer, get used to it.
I donât know if this is just because Iâm not American but Iâve never heard queer used as a slur. Ever. Meanwhile gay was the insult in the 2000s here. Everything you didnât like was âsoo gayâ. Queer wasnât even a word most of us knew back then.
It just baffled me that people would think an identifier is automatically a slur just because someone uses it to mock someone. If we did that gay would be a slur. Stupid would be a slur. Autistic would be a slur.
The reason people are upset about the word queer is that itâs a unifying term. You can say youâre queer and all people will know is that youâre part of the community. But you canât say youâre LGBT, you have to say youâre gay or trans or ace. They donât want you to be ambiguously queer. They want you to say which kind of queer you are so they can decide whether youâre undesirable.
yeah in the 90s and early 2000s kids would call each other âgayâ as an insult. But no one ties themselves in knots over whether âgayâ is a slur. So yeah, please ffs learn your history.
They want you to say which kind of queer you are so they can decide whether youâre undesirable.
When you insist that queer is a slur, you are giving the power to define the term to the bigots and homophobes, instead of to the people to whom it applies.
Started crocheting blocks for a Lego scarf today! (There are going to be more colors, of course)
This is gonna be so cute

Finally found my other crochet hooks the other day, so Iâve been able to start gifts. Everything Iâm making though is supposed to be stiffened, and the starch I have on hand is not cutting it, so I think I need to make a tapioca starch mixture or something?
Finished the front of this dragon eye pillow yesterday
Normally Iâve got about 4 days of working on a single project before I get absolutely sick of it and have to start some thing new (which is definitely why I have so many WIPs . . . Over 50 last I counted đ ) Iâm on day 7 of working on this sweater vest and Absolutely Itching to be working on Anything Else. But also I canât find my other crochet hooks and all of the things I want to make next require smaller hooks. (Mostly snowflake ornaments and flower earrings both made with embroidery floss instead of yarn).
ADHD hyper focus is a godsdamned gift but the Intense boredom and frustration that follow once the interest flip switches, is a godsdamned curse.
That said, I am really excited for my next projects. In addition to the ornaments and earrings, im also going to be crocheting a dragon eye pillow for my dad as well as felting some tree faces for dad and Claudiaâs new garden (which I probably wonât be able to start for another week or two due to it being a little more physical and me still healing). I might also felt them a birdhouse? If I have time with the other gifts I want to make.
Just realized I forgot to post my progress pics yesterday for my stained glass sweater vest! I just need to add the ribbing around the edges and then itâll be done!
Finished the remaining blocks for my sweater vest, stitched everything together, got through a whole armhole of ribbing, but it all came out wonky, so I had to frog that whole 2+hours of work and start it over again đ sometimes making things is a Pain.
