Hey I hate to tell you this but your boyfriend was taking up too much space in the archives. Yeah, yeah we put him on microfiche. He can be stored for a lot longer than traditional media would allow, but you need special equipment to view him. Sorry

TDF days 13 and 14

Finished the second bobbin last night, plied it just now. I think I might spin the other colors I’ve dyed as a break, or maybe switch to something else for a bit–I like this yarn, I’ve just learned that when my tdf project is something inherently slow it is not very enjoyable for me.

Very happy with this yarn. Puffed up a lot in blocking, definitely sport weight now. 186 yards (170 meters). Also a lot more even than I thought it would be. Some spots have no halo and others have lots of halo, which I guess is a testament to the static electricity issue which I have hopefully now figured out enough that the next skein from this fleece will have no halo, consistently.

imagine getting this review

I guarantee that Monica at the front desk has not been able to live this review down and her coworkers absolutely bring it up regularly.

If I were Monica I’d print this review out and frame it

I want to make this absolutely clear to kids: children didn’t used to be stuck inside the house like you are today. There used to be public places you could hang out. It used to be fairly safe to walk around because trucks weren’t designed to kill children. You didn’t need a car to go anywhere so kids without a license weren’t trapped. There weren’t 24/7 cable news networks constantly scaring parents with anecdotes even as crime was at all time lows and the biggest danger comes from adults kids know not strangers.

It’s easy to ignore old people talking about “the good ol’ days” because a lot of the people saying that shit are racist assholes, but the way society treats kids today really is objectively worse than how kids used to be treated. You deserve better, and you should know that better things are possible. We just need to kill the suburbs and for-profit news.

When I was a kid in the 80s and 90s, I could go for a bike ride or walk with my sister or friends and we could leave after breakfast and not come back until dinner and our parents weren’t worried. We lived on the edge of town, so we could turn left into the woods or turn right and go downtown or go straight and go to a friend’s house in the neighborhood. I went to a park or the community pool or went out for ice cream alone from a young age.

I also regularly walked to and from school alone from as young as first grade (so, about age 6). And I’m not saying I walked three miles uphill in snow both ways, but I checked a map and it was over half a mile and crossed at least one street that people drive pretty fast on. And that was normal.

All the same for the ‘60s.

[ID: two tweets by Janel Comeau @VeryBadLlama (13 Jun 23):

apparently a lot of cis women need to hear this but a world where our faces, bodies, hair, breasts, clothing and voice are constantly scrutinized as “not feminine enough” is infinitely more dangerous than a world where trans women might also be in the bathroom and need to pee

angry people feeling an obsessive need to look at every inch of my body to decide if some small flaw in my waist proportions or jawline warrants demanding to inspect my ID or genitals does not feel particularly safe to me

for anyone too young to know this: watching The Truman Show is a vastly different experience now, compared to how it was before youtube and social media influencers became normal

before it was like, “what a horrifying thing to do to a human being! to take away their autonomy and privacy, all for the sake of profits! to create fake scenarios for them to react to, just to retain viewership! to ruin their happiness just so some corporate entity could harvest money from their very humanity! how could anyone do something so evil?”

and now it’s like, “ah, yeah. this is still deeply fucked up, but it’s pretty much what every influencer has been doing to their kids for a decade now. probably bad that we’ve normalized this experience”

Instagram and TikTok have successfully created the Torment Nexus from Jim Carrey’s iconic work, “Don’t put people in the Torment Nexus”
