- They’re still decorating, but this got a chuckle out of me because it’s incomplete. A happy Black to all who celebrate 💀. #blackhistorymonth
- I’m having my husband watch #samuraichamploo for the first time. I didn’t realize rewatching a series that came out on my early teens, that I watched half asleep, repeatedly, would feel so refreshing more than 20 years later. It’s also MUCH different binging an anime you had to watch weekly. #anime
- I finished this book. 3 stars. While the author does a great job of writing horrifying scenes, I felt some of the issues could've been avoided with better communication. And I think there is 1 plot hole for sure. But His was still decent.
- 📚 I ended 2025 with "Golden Son" and was kinda "eh" on it, and now I'm starting the new year with another #sciencefiction thriller: "The Third Rule of Time Travel". Hope it's good. #booksky #books
- Google killed my Marinara chrome extension for not complying with whatever standards it has, and it looks like it came back as "marinara new'. I'm so excited to have my extension back!! It's the only one I liked #pomodoro
- 📚Because I read most books electronically, I don’t always understand how thick books can be. What was I thinking when I agreed to this? #booksky #sciencefiction

- "I am a regular guy, I can do the transaction!", I say, trying to hype myself up to meet a friend at Barnes & Noble that I genuinely like after an onslaught of interactions because of Christmas. The constant peopling is a LOT this time of year. #introvert
- #zootopia2 was so good! I argue it's better than the first one! I love the #movies and I love third spaces ❤️. Good to see you @psychedeliczuki.bsky.social
- So anyway, Witchbolt was having a sale on bandcamp. Marigold is an absolute hit and I can’t wait to listen to it”The Ancient Faith” from “Bellow” on #cassette. Collecting #dungeonsynth and instrumental cassettes is very fun! #analog #witchbolt
- Every time a business gooes cashless, I use cash harder on other businesses.
- i know the whole point of the movie "Click" was *not* to fast forward through life, but yoooo do I wish for a remote 😭.
- 🧶 It gets so dark, I have to post ASAP before I lose my good light. Making #hornet for the first time since 2017, but now with a lanyard #keychain! The dress is the hardest, but most fun part . #crochetsky #amigurumi #fiberart #fiberartist #crochet #silksong
- 🧶 con prep for me means trying to make #amigurumi in my lap while getting my locs retwisted. Worked out decently well. Bringing back #hornet from the dead. #wip
- Being a contrarian weirdo is my only personality. I decided 2025 was the year I started collecting #cassettes. #witchbolt “marigold” album is my first NEW #cassette. It’s so cute. Excited to hear how the YouTube and cassette versions differ! #dungeonsynth #ambient #darkbient

- 🧶 I connected with a friend and heard that she picks up her #loomknitting project instead of scrolling so she has something to show for where her time went. After #crocheting for over a decade I tried #knitting and made a sloppy hat for my husband. Making bad art was still fun. #knitsky

- I’m personally shocked and devastated that mending, a skill I’ve barely practiced, didn’t turn out Pinterest perfect. No one could’ve predicted this (I’ll keep trying) #sewing #beginnersewing .
- Reposted by EssenceReport: Guy Who Sings ‘Thriller’ Has Bunch Of Non-Halloween Music, Too
- I streamed for the first time in 6 months from just an old iPhone and…everything just worked? No stream crashes. I thought it was my internet, turns out it was #obs. Just doing something low key was honestly refreshing. No overlay, just chat and vibes.
- With the death of #joannfabrics I'm so grateful for Premier Yarns. #crochetsky
- We fight against women being relegated to hospitality ministry, kid’s ministry, music ministry and Sunday School, but then for #church barbecues/potlucks, no one brought ice for the cold salads, and there’s not enough serving spoons, so several pasta salads are distributed via tiny plastic spoons 🫠
- 🧶 When you #crochet you can make anything. Still waiting on a case and screen protector for the #minimalphone so I made a panda themed phone sleeve. #crochetsky
- No one got the joke you guys. People thought this was a penis joke (1 eyed snake). I’m now 0-3 of trying to make things but then it being construed as sexual. Also when I mentioned it’s a Metal Gear Solid pun, one person said “oh, I didn’t watch that”. I silently crumbled into dust.
- #vendorhall chronicles. Every other light is on in the dealer hall. Yesterday the rear of the hall was in darkness. The hall is open. Energy on E. Someone please turn the lights on 🥺😭. #tired #loopy #silly #artistalley

- 🧶 Another #michaels rant: while going to a bigger store leads to better results, the offering are still less than we’re used to. 1) why can’t I ship the yarn I want to store? 2) where is the big twist yarn? 3) why all the sad, muted baby colors? #yarn #crochet #crochetsky
- 🧶 I have a market Friday-Sunday and I had to chuckle at me hanging on to all of my #pikmin. I’m proud of me for making as much as I did, but also I’m tired 🫠. #amigurumi is still an adventure! #crochet #crochetsky
- 🧶 Tapstry needles are like bobby pins. You’ll have an abundance of them, and then eventually you are down to one. Precious. Finite. Valuable. #crochetsky
- 🧶 I like to do this. This is fun. This is fun and I like to do this 🫠. #wip #amigurumi
- 🧶 So I literally hate how you were right? At #michaels, I wasn’t expecting self checkouts and not even enough space to check out with all your yarn. Also the fabric counter is the same place where you check out?? It’s so gross. Not the fault of the employees but YIKES.
- 🧶 Using the Michael’s app to see the yarn that’s available is like when you visit another state and all the shops are weird. I miss Jo-Ann’s every day 😔.
- Lastly, here are some goofy photos I took with my #kodak Pixpro. Good to know there are millennials walking the trails of #starvedrock , but also, people sure lose their shoes in the oddest of places. #photography
- Taken on my #kodakpixpro. It felt good to take photos like it’s 2005 again. This is #starvedrock state park in Oglesby, IL #hobbyphotography #digicam

- 🧶 #crochet friends! Are there any American manufactured yarn brands that people recommend? I’m trying (perhaps in vain) to find acrylic for a baby shower gift. #crochetsky
