One of them, Matthew, crocheted me this beautiful blanket for Christmas and I’ll be taking it to my parents’ tomorrow where I’ll be doing solo caring for a couple of weeks; it will help to wrap myself up in queer community. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/115/775/117/299/976/856/original/e088c9713ee0a015.jpeg"> <br/> 2025-12-24T14:54:58Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsztdd2ntmwv8nukx8yzqeuz39p4jney9zc5em7nnlfwalzjqaw0cgzyrqxacyfzms3pqe7htpycy8k3lceqym97hfnq0xxu59nuuagaw75ww6nq0a Suddenly and viscerally obsessed with these letterforms.

For the first time this year I’ve swapped for a white poppy, which does all this yet can’t be so easily misconstrued as nationalism. I have more if anyone local would like one.<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/113/424/726/804/151/849/original/f50bda146c1c965e.jpeg"> <br/> 2024-11-04T12:39:44Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsr0htntpgskal6sf9a7yp2ylvehqpgdz607cdvultpnde472zw7uczyrqxacyfzms3pqe7htpycy8k3lceqym97hfnq0xxu59nuuagaw75we65lp4 So cool!
