thinking today about how much I love literally all fiber arts. I am hopeless at almost every other kind of art, but as soon as there is thread, yarn, or string I can figure it out fairly quickly.
I learned how to knit when i was eight, started sewing at nine, my dad taught me rock climbing knots around that age, I figured out from a book how to make friendship bracelets, I've made my own drop spindle to make yarn with, and more recently I've picked up visible mending. I've learned embroidery through fixing my overalls, and this year I've learned how to darn and how to do sashiko (which I did for the first time today). After years of being unable to crochet I finally figured it out last night and made seven granny squares in just a few hours.
I want to learn every fiber art that I can. I want to quilt, I want to use a spinning wheel, I want to weave, I want to learn tatting, I want to learn how to weave a basket, I want to learn them all. If I could travel through time and meet anyone in the Bible, high on my list are the craftsmen who made the Tabernacle.
I want to travel the world and learn the fiber arts of every culture, from the gorgeous Mayan weaving in Guatemala, to the stunning batik of Java, to Kente in Ghana. I want to sit at the feet of experienced men and women and watch them do their craft expertly and learn from them.
Of every art form I've seen, it's fiber arts that tug most at my heartstrings.

ADHD is so debilitating and it isn’t talked about enough. Imagine your body doesn’t produce enough of the most essential neurotransmitter. You are constantly seeking this neurotransmitter through any way possible, and it’s why you get addicted to doing things or focusing so heavily on something you forget to meet every single basic need.
You sit there and question what the fuck is wrong with you because it was so easy to study yet you just didn’t do it. It was so easy to do the things you stopped doing but you literally can’t do them.
Like wtf do you fucking mean I was born with a chemical imbalance that makes me incapable of getting up??? Wtf do you mean I have to take stimulants to counteract crippling ADHD symptoms, and then those stimulants actually just make me like everyone else????
Dude. What the fuck.
Tesla is tanking so hard it is dragging the entire EV segment's sales down into the negative. When you omit Tesla from the equation, EV sales are up 13% across the board.
Don't let anyone tell you EV sales are in a slump.
Thanks! Yall keep switching to a language I don't speak every 20 seconds and I can't bother to be involved anymore
It makes me quite upset that all the math people hate (High school math) isn't even really mathematics. Computations at best. Feels like going to people who like literature and saying I hate literature I was made to do spelling tests every year in school.
Also unsolicited hate whenever you're like I like math.... There's no critique just pure hatred. Like I've cried because of math before, I still love it to bits.

having depression makes your friends seem like the coolest most put together people on earth like wow... you got out of bed, had breakfast, went to work, AND spent some time on a hobby when you got home....? that's so impressive you're like superman or something. can i borrow your power.
Every once in a while where decapitation seems like a much more tolerable idea than having a head on top of my neck
Ugh… headache. Head splitting migraine, even.
two words that really shouldn't be the same word:
inductive in "inductive reasoning" (philosophy term)
inductive in "inductive proof" (math term)
disabled people are not an optimisation problem. neither are they a resource problem. they are not a burden to society and their "contribution" has nothing to do with what they deserve. a society that's built to discard disabled people, including age related disabilities, is a society that's failed. if you can't offer healthcare to people then your country has failed. there's no maximum resource quota for people to keep them alive and living well. actually i don't give a singular fuck how expensive it is. fascist fucking country
