This is a good tip!
she/her loves chips I’m that artist in San Jose who makes giant carrots and tubes and weird clown fashion. I teach people how to sew and I have a 100% survival rate (2025). Amy Brown aka Jumbo Jibbles https://linktr.ee/jumbojibbles

This is a good tip!
Just picked this up, not my favorite
Gonna have to write essays as strings of SEO-enhanced keywords.
I would much rather some distraction from that on this day. Carry on, T!
This sounds so heartwarming.
ok time to reset the timeline 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 BIG BOAT STUCK 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯
rarely have I more acutely felt the dynamic by which Dems are held responsible for the rhetoric of every random left-leaning person on the internet and Republicans are not even asked to answer for their own personal words
Shut the fuck up friday is in full effect
I guess this has probably already gone viral somewhere but I am simply dying at this picture of a bear that looks like it hired a photographer to do a glamour shoot
Do not post shit on the internet that will give the feds an excuse to break in your door.
I have had strawberry potato chips and I hated them but the joy I got in holding that bag and anticipating the taste was wonderful!
this guy is definitely someone olivia benson would arrest
Wow, I don’t know why this made me cry, because it’s pretty great… Freddy Mercury would approve…
I’m compiling a very damning dossier.
Focusing on what truly benefits kids, with their input, would save us all. I wish that, collectively, we desired a free future for children more than we desired the power to harm or control another adult. Every day I try to imagine that better world for all the children who should get to live there.

Difficult to get to Diridon Station this morning- fatal crash and all the roads around Diridon are closed off (maybe not on East side). No signage telling peds or bikes how to get in @caltrainalerts.bsky.social
I’m regretting firing the one who was quoting Marianne Williamson. I didn’t know how much worse things were gonna get.
I was like a ripped bag of peat moss.
So happily, there are new options in the South Bay if you’re getting into sewing. I am definitely breathing a sigh of relief! Fabrics R Is is still my go-to for the weird stuff I make, but my linen pants collection will grow now.
I visited Wild Hare Haberdasher in Saratoga, a fabric and craft store that opened a year ago. I am delighted to say they care a wide variety of linen and the cutest sewing notions. A place for apparel sewing! It’s great. thewildharehaberdashery.com

This worked for me in CA at CVS. The pharmacist asked no questions other than allergies.
40 miles off of haiti's coast... so whose waters were these?
Next Spider-Man is just the Umbrella vid from a different camera angle.
Oh noooo

Only the 2nd time!
Digital pattern downloads would be such a cool thing for libraries. I’m gonna check!
Preview of the announcement:
With fabric stores closing and pattern companies going out of business? We’re losing just a few bottom rungs of the ladder.
I teach sewing lessons and this is awful. Tried&true pattern companies give beginners something solid to practice on. There are plenty of good indie designers out there but noobs don’t know how to vet a pattern. There’s a lot of dross,- long AI & designers who don’t include necessary instructions.
My guess as well.
I have a summer tradition of reading a SK novel! I’m halfway through ‘Salem’s Lot.
What about once they are inside, the child's bedroom has a "do not enter" or "no boys allowed" sign?
I love this website! Helps put ourselves in perspective. I like taking my home state and putting it next to other countries.
We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.
I love the idea of you earnestly questioning the historicity of this truck brigand.
Buses- They’re Right There!
This is a short survey, but important!
Is this an actual problem for you? Are you vetting everyone who come into the bathroom for possible ulterior motives?
Guess it’s time for your periodic reminder that mentally ill people are actually statistically less likely to commit violent crimes; more likely to be victims; and more at risk of hurting themselves than others. If you want to curb gun crimes curb guns. Threading some studies here!

Schedule your vaxes NOW. Check the boxes you need to check. Get it.
I mean, is anyone smart enough to want the vaccine NOT depressed about ✨everything ✨
This man can’t even protect his arches.
That word floated out of the back of my mind very, very, very slowly.
Depression for me… yay?
Might get a CPS staffer who really wants to get their man. If race factors into it, shit is going down. Glad you straightened Prudie out!
The body count in Grantchester is too much to be believed. They’re still dressing up for church and having ice cream socials amongst the constant murders?
We paid up for the year before we decided to cancel all NYT stuff. Ugh, sorry it isn’t free anymore. Once my sub runs out I’ll be worrying about losing the free Spelling Bee.
Glad I have depression?
I’m still seeing it - what’s up?
Government so small it’s literally just one dude.
Ballet shoe!
I think maybe the guns *did* kill people.
They were dreadfully dry but that’s because I forgot the egg.
I made falafel with crushed up tortilla chips instead of panko. Arkansas-California fusion.
I've had a sewing business for almost 15 years and my phone still always autocorrect "sew" and "sewing" to "see" and "seeing".
I made an account just for my Buy Nothing group. I wish the app was used more, but until then, nothing beats it. It's also a cool way to meet your neighbors!
Her writing is so consistently delightful.
The ripple effects of these hoaxes are so large. No one at the UofA is ever going to forget that as they walk into campus.

BREAKING NEWS: Police are responding to a report of an active shooter at the University of Arkansas.
Goddamnit
man you used to be a gangsta rapper and now you're scared of lesbians?
don't worry
Whyyyyy
any halfway decent journalist should ask Newsom "why is 19 too young to receive lifesaving medical treatment but not too young to date you"
Any embarrassment I ever felt on buying tampons is nothing to the idea of someone seeing me buy Dude Wipes.
All that stuff is the point of class! I truly don’t understand.
I was not prepared for the silly Austenland movie being about sexual tourism. None-the-less, a good background watch while handsewing.
anybody else’s gyre feel wider lately
What about an OnlyFans for sewing lessons? Is this a thing?
Finally have someone to help me make a handmade product, ready to go, and with Joann's closing/internet breaking all the various colored flannels I was using are now impossible to find. Thinking maybe I shelve this current project for a while until something changes.
I still wish hell for my first IUD insertion gyno.
I downloaded Focus Friends (mostly to get off of bluesky, ooops) and named my friend Harry Bean Stanton.
listen the world is a mess but a judge ordered the Florida migrant prison closed, California passed their "fuck around, find out" redistricting, and James Dobson is dead this is the best net good news day in awhile, I really do think
It's a client I've had for a while but i haven't been there in 2 months. I really don't want to offend them-- they can only do home visits.
How do I bring this up in a nice way?
I got back from a home visit at a client's house and within an hour of leaving I noticed several bug bites. They have cats, but I only very briefly patted one on the head. Is that enough time to get flea bites?
They can’t find anyone to do camera makeup.
New trans inclusive bathroom about to open
I didn’t solidify my cancellation policy and a client cancelled a booking 2 minutes before. Goodbye money.
AB solidarity. There’s enough sky for all of us.
“Must be real proud of your job if you can’t show your face.”
Dyson sphere sounded like a vacuum I can’t afford.
Got some room left in this months #CWUB if you’re a lgbtqia sweetie who wants to learn to sew! It’s tomorrow at 7pm- please register!!! www.jumbojibbles.com/event-detail...
Nothing more natural than being told you’re not natural enough!
It’s a big ol’ tent!
Got an eerie feeling this train car is actually purgatory. I’m glad I brought a book and a water bottle.
I attended a meeting about a proposed *7-story building*, where a neighbor bemoaned losing his view of the “San Jose skyline”. I’ve lived downtown for 14 years- how have I missed that iconic skyline?!?!
FINALLY departing northbound from Diridon. Not even sure what number the train is. All screens ooo.
@caltrainalerts.bsky.social NB 119 running super late- we had to change tracks after a FREIGHT TRAIN came through at 9:28am.
Caltrain 119 at Diridon looks… different.
