“(but somehow, it seems, not Taylor Swift)”

There’s a term for it (well, at least there’s a term for it in one of my friend groups, wherein we had one such couple): dopplebangers.

Let’s be real, Karlie and Josh invited them to be there on Thursday. Only Thursday.

Great, now I’m never going to not refer to this as “the sex scene”.

And the psychic phone sex? How did she miss that?

I like my version better! LOL

Also, Kitchener stitch (which I just finished doing for a hoodie I’m almost done with, yay!) was originally created as a way for soldiers to easily mend socks during WWI. http://knithistory.academicblogs.co.uk/the-kitchener-stitch-knitting-in-wartime-study-day/

This article doesn’t call it out well but they were getting into arguments on the patterns for the pink pussy hats/F*ck Trump scarves and Make America Great Again stuff.

I’ve seen that scene five times and I didn’t realise until just now that she calls him “Ben” at the end.

And we’re leaving off Rogue One and Solo... why?

They really are everywhere. They show up like clockwork on the crossword site I visit. I’ve been on Ravelry since the beginning and I could not be more pleased about this.

As a pretty avid Raveler, you canNOT escape these people. I saw a convo taken down six or so minths ago in a group for LACE KNITTING(which doesn’t seem like a place for burning political discussions). It started out being a random lament from a lace knitter that they couldn’t read Russian or other Eastern European lang…

I can one up you- my dad passed away last month only days after being diagnosed with brain cancer. We had had our issues over the years but we had been talking a lot, and my husband and I dropped everything in order to be with him the last couple of weeks of his life. Last week, I received a copy of his will and he…

I’ve been on Ravelry for ten years. Their discussion boards are huge. The boards on the main page are yarn-related, but that’s maybe only half the content. They have huge groups about pretty much any topic imaginable. (I haven’t been to the boards in a while, but I used to be in groups for favorite novels, Stacey…

Lots of people, actually. Because people there talk about lots of different things and not just yarn. Also, I’ve seen several twitter threads pointing out the politics of yarn, such as a ton of wool is used for military uniforms and the military is the reason why superwash wool exists (that would be wool that can go…

There were “build the wall” patterns being shared daily as a way to intimidate PoC and immigrants, or to “make the libs cry” as the posters said.

They are F-ing everywhere. The Mods on my archeology group have to do daily reminders of the guidelines. You know what I got instead of Birthday wishes from my Mom today? A pro-trump chain email. Jesus wept. 

I couldn’t be more proud to be a member of ravelry, so I made this.

I can’t say I was expecting this, but good on Ravelry! Seriously, though, who goes on crafting forums to talk about politics? 

Indeed. Their lockdown protocol to contain an outbreak was to herd all the citizens into one basement that had many points of entrance. No way that could go wrong!
