Hey guys! I know I haven't been in here much lately but I need help for a family we're friends with. I set up a YouCaring for them so if you could check it out, and maybe donate or share the post, I would really appreciate it. (I can't figure out how to set up a link in the app.) https://tinyurl.com/yc6zdytk

Science + Textile Art = the awesome scientifically accurate moths knitted by London-based artist Max Alexander, who enjoys the challenge of recreating the intricate colors and markings of different moth species as knitting patterns.

“I started researching moths and discovered how many different and amazing varieties there are. It quickly became addictive!”
“It’s pretty funny to knit moths from a material that they’re known to eat though. Although none of the species that I’ve knitted are wool eaters,” Alexander tells Creators.

Visit Max Alexander’s website or follow her on Instagram to check out more of her marvelous Shetland wool knitted moths.

Alexander also has a web shop where she sells framed originals and other knitted creations. She takes commission requests as well.

So someone found this little guy in the parking lot at work and I don’t know what to do.

Little guy is at the SPCA Wildlife Dept. Evie was heartbroken but she understood that it was what was best for him. Still, nothing ever makes seeing her cry easier.

yeah so, I thought I was given a rat last night but I was wrong.

That’s a baby squirrel. 

We’re taking it to the SPCA Wildlife tonight.

Lucky survived the night. Every day is a gift since it surely would have gotten too cold last night for it, especially all alone in a parking lot.

It’s really depressing how Labor Day has gone from “give laborers a day off” to “give white collar office workers and executives a day off but make retail laborers work so that executives can get a latte on their day off”

If a shop does this for someone I’m happy they get this advertisement

Yo! Anybody in Buffalo with car trouble? Here’s your Spot.

Well I guess my car is going here from now on! It’s so nice to see something positive coming out of Buffalo.

I just screwed up and said “dot your Ts and cross your i’s” and then I pictured someone crossing their eyes and laughed like a maniac. The customer I was talking to didn’t seem to find it as funny as I did.
