Speaking of trying to finish things, was working on my sister's mittens last night and managed to drop a stitch. Now I have to tink back several rows of colour work...

And it's stuff I don't really find in stores around here: non-superwash, untreated, rustic wool. And very inexpensive since it comes directly from the mill. The downside is that it takes quite a few skeins to get up to the amount required for free shipping. (And because they had a sale going, I had to throw in a couple more to get to that amount)

Most cats do not react that way. The worst reaction I have seen is when my sister's cat did a revenge pee on her bed (then went and curled up on mine) after a vaccine. Just keep an eye out for anything really out of the ordinary.
If Farah was less messed up, I would take her in at least for a yearly check up.

Farah has found a fun new way to wake me up. She plops down near my face and purrs. Loudly. At 4 am. And if I reach over and pet her a bit, she honours me with a blast of the most obnoxious kitty breath. She is now enjoying some balcony time.
So here I am. How's everyone else's day going so far?

It does repeat, but each row of the repeat is so different that I get confused and have to do it line by line. And it has triple decreases (sk2p) which I find incredibly faffy.

Maybe, but at least the question has been asked - and answered. It just might be what blows this wide open here. Our legacy media has made sure that the general public was kept ignorant about as much of this issue as possible. People hearing a respected journalist calling the fact that there are two sexes a US-inspired right-wing talking point might make people take notice.

Marc Carney. The Liberal leader.

So the debate was okay, but during the press conference afterwards, one question was how many genders there are. He answered that there are two sexes. The follow up question was if he believes that women have a right to their own spaces and he responded that generally, yes, but that in Canada we respect everyone...
Cut back to the anchor who pointed out that the question came from an 'alternative far right media', True North. Other woman saying that this is a 'deplorable' question that is from the US. They did also mention the UK decision.

All these fucking lax sentences are doing is encouraging these bastards to escalate. We know this. All serial rapists and murders started with "small" transgressions and were emboldened by getting away with it. All abusers operate this way.

I don't buy for a second that he give's a rat's ass about his people. He wants power and prestige. I don't think he's a communist, not by a long shot, but I don't think he's a big believer in democracy or human rights either. He's a thug and they don't tend to make good leaders.

Have you checked out Bag-O-Day crochet on youtube? She has tons of hat tutorials, all free.

So what exactly did we get for our 25 million $$$$$?
Nonsense. We got nonsense.

I've had two cats and a dog before. They eventually learned to coexist. Helps that I got the dog as a puppy, but my girl hated her on sight. Ex's boy would curl up with her within a week. My girl didn't like him much either.

Look! My local shelter has your namesake!
I could have my very own Dolly Cat but she doesn't get along with other cats...

We are in the middle of a unit on AI right now and part of it is thinking about the impacts. One example was "you and your friend are applying to the same program (police training) and you find out he has been using AI to bring his grades up". They had to think about who this affects. They could not think beyond themselves to the program not getting the best candidate to the police force who hires him in the future not getting an officer that won't cut corners to the citizens that might not be well served. They had to be nudged every step of the way. And when they broke into groups with different AI situations, many of them could not extrapolate to a wider impact.

Oh, he is likely to be an economic disaster, but that will be fixable. Not easy, but ultimately fixable. Kids can't be unsterilised.

My go-to was "If you're drawing that from memory, you need to see a doctor". That or giving it my best Art Teacher critique about perspective, proportion, and realism.

I tend to use it quite a bit as well. I have a few different blacks, but they're often too harsh. I'll usually use Payne's Grey, Feart Grey , or Indigo instead.
