I think Little would pick up on it real fast

When asked if you could quilt a two sided quilt, you make it happen!

Statue of David quilt pieced by Melanie, pattern by Legit Kits.

I'm trying to come up with something clever to say here but I feel like I've been hit by a truck. In a good way. I never thought anything like this would pass in the Midwest, not even in a blue state like IL, because it's simply not the kind of thing anybody campaigns on or even talks about at the gubernatorial level.

This is honestly the perfect legal addendum to NAGPRA, and I'm thrilled it's at the state level. This type of legislation would be way too complex at the federal level, but the individual state responsibilities are manageable, and more importantly, doable.

Here's some of the highlights of what the law does:

My favorite comment is this: When asked about what he would say to museums that may push back against the law, Illinois State Rep. Mark L. Walker said: “Too bad.”

yeah turtlenecks are sexy too bad they’re also one of the worst sensory experiences fashion has ever developed

me wearing a turtleneck and fighting back nausea at the sensation: haha aren’t i hot *gags* anyone want to admit they have a crush on me

same thing with chokers. look how attractive and cool and punk i look now if you’ll excuse me i need to go take this off right now or i am going to throw up

making this on my phone with very little sleep or consideration, but i think the point stands

sometimes i say things on twitter and then make a little graph about it

fan function: i want to solve the canon for X

fan friction: i want to add X to canon

fan fraction: i want to divide the canon by zero

take a knife to bring to the roman senate

reblog for more stabbing

Last one for this AU. Flat colors cus I nearly finished some comms yaaaaay

okay tumblr’s exclusion from the twitter social media ban list is hilarious but genuinely we do not belong on there. if a real human person asks “where can i find you on social media” and your choice is a swift death or revealing your tumblr, most of us would simply expire. half of y’all change urls every week like you’re in witness protection. just imagine for one second attaching your wholeass government name to your latest two am clownposting and tell me that didn’t send a cold chill down your spine. the only place i ever want to see the words “connect with me on tumblr!” is on the ao3 profile of an author i’m actively stalking. anyone in the world can follow me except anyone i personally know. antisocial media.

A few years ago, a new team member in my group looked at my chaotic, comic and anime laden desk, and made ASSUMPTIONS.

One day, they popped up over the cube wall and went, "You know what Tumblr is, dont you?"

I confirmed I was aware of the site, yes.

"What's your screen name?!?"

I sipped my tea. "Not in a million years."

Finished project: Rosemary

I was scrolling through my own blog today (as one does) and realized I never did a proper round-up post for Rosemary. So this is a bit of a retrospective I suppose! Click through for my notes on the project if you're interested - otherwise, I hope you like the pictures!

you know, I always see people tagging crochet and quilting posts with "people who do fibercrafts are too powerful" or "knitters are witches" and you know what, that's true, but they're only saying that on my single-stitch, self-striping crochet blanket because they've never seen lacemakers and haven't been properly taught the fear of god.
