A Single Mom in MN

This is where I blog about my various fandoms, my kid, knitting, and being a Mom

Hi, I knit.

How am I supposed to teach my son about consent now?

I want my son to grow up to respect women's bodies. Donald Trump's victory is a devastating blow to that work

So I got dumped

It was my first attempt at dating since the divorce and I really put myself out there. Don't regret it but wish it could have ended a little better. I should have known it wasn't going to work out when he told me he was into Batman and couldn't wait for that stupid Batman vs Superman to come out.

Finished! Really happy with how this sweater turned out. Obviously still need to block it and sew in ends but wanted to try it on. I love the crossed stitches in the yoke - very feminine - and the shaping through my waist. And it's still cold enough in Minnesota that I'll get to wear it :)

Perfect Sunday afternoon knitting in the sun. Working on the yoke of the Sazerac Pullover.

Happy Sunday! Knitting and donut and coffee :)

Update: after I reblogged this someone messaged me offering me tickets to the sold out Hausu screening with a Q&A and autograph session with the director

[zombbeans]

These never work for me, but here’s to trying.

[strangenewclassrooms]

I don’t believe in these things

But last time I reblogged one ten/fifteen minutes later I got a call offering me a job

But I reblogged it because I was waiting on hearing back from the job. So there you go.

Roger is cute.

[sugared-violets]

Please, make stydia canon roger ! (Yeah, i’m desperate…)

[hestilllikesher11-blog]

Please let stiles and lydia be together :D

[disgustinganimals]

The miracle would be if it works at all which kinda means if I believe it works then the miracle actually happened but if I don’t believe it occurred then there was no miracle at all… unless of course something really miraculous happens like I get some returns on those goddamn money cats COME ON ROGER DON’T LET US HUMANS DOWN.

[the-winter-senpai]

Please let Chris Evans come to SDCC Roger, help a girl out.

Femme is Radical: Resisting Transmisogyny and Femme-shaming in Feminist Spaces

"I am not femme because I am a woman, rather, I am femme because I am a feminist who is self-empowered to express herself and make choices according to her personal preferences."

She says what I’ve been thinking for a long time, much better than I could...

How Entertainment Closeting Works

This was sent to me off anon. I have every reason to believe that everything in it is true. She’s not revealing any great receipt or anything (nothing specific to HL), so even if there are fuzzy details (which there aren’t, just allowing for the possibility), the heart of what she is saying is informative and eye-opening. I really want to thank her for being willing to share her experience with us. I’ll put most of this under a cut because it is long. But it’s well worth the read.

Keep reading

[singlemominmn]

This is important, and worth reading even though it’s long.

I am so damned homesick

I’m watching videos of all my favorite Boston actors on youtube just to hear the accent...

This is what I’ve come to.

[marthawells-deactivated20181223]

“The Dark-Hunter Series and the Shadowhunter Series are so similar that CLARE’S own publisher mistakenly printed 100,000 copies of a Shadowhunter Book referencing the DarkHunter Mark on the cover.”

Cassie Clare has a looong history of plagiarism. Please don’t buy her books :(

[singlemominmn]

I don't know how I finished this in a weekend but I did!

[singlemominmn]

Started the color work on the yoke tonight! Netflix and knit :)

[singlemominmn]

and this is why...

I’ll be forever single. Trying to chat with a guy on Ok Cupid.

Me - so what do you like to do on the weekend?

Him - oh, you know, anything. Biking, skiing.

Me  - Cool! I love to ski and I’ve been looking for someone to go with me. Hobbies?

Him - Anything. So are you open to a FWB thing?

Me - ....

Like, seriously, conversational skills are apparently DEAD.
