today i trimmed and faced the moth quilt and actually finished the part where i handstitch the facing down
which means the quilt is technically finished. it needs a label and a hanging sleeve, but they sort of don’t count
i have clips on the edges rn to keep the seams aligned. i’ll take them off and press it all again tomorrow
used this freebie star wars fabric cuz i had a lot and i don’t care about it. i sewed on a slab and then cut the center out and turned it to the back. understitched as much as i could (bad corners), then pressed the inside edge under and pinned.
sewn down by hand
you get an edge like this, instead of a framed look that would come from using a binding

found a piece of paper in my oldest files. now, I want to clarify that I do believe I was simply angsting on the same page as doing my high school physics homework. however. as a found poem, it could be worse.
I miss the way you cleaned my hairbrush
I miss the way you shared your fish sticks
I miss the way you sent away the salesman
I miss the way you loved rice cakes
I miss the way you worried about me
I miss the way you loved me
You're still my cell phone background
You're still my strength and weakness
If object inside focal point, form virtual image, upright, larger
If object outside center of curvature, image will be inverted, smaller, and real.
You might as well have been my girlfriend.
I love you
or I did once

I do think we should consider more often the idea that the people reblogging your posts may not actually be talking to you.
I saw a post from a well-known blogger answering an ask and including "if you can do X". The asker, not unreasonably, got annoyed because they'd specifically said in the ask that they couldn't do X. OP replied that they weren't talking to the asker there, they were talking to the hundreds of other people who follow them. And on the one hand, I don't see how the asker was supposed to get that, but on the other, maybe it is time we started asking that question before taking shit personally.
OP: adhd hack: try and put away as many dishes as you can before the microwave beeps!
RB: that would make me have a panic attack
now if RB IS talking to OP, then OP is justified in being like "then?? the post?? isn't?? for you??" but suppose RB is reblogging the post for their friend group, the equivalent of dropping into the gc like "check this out! couldn't be me tho, lol, imagine?"
OP: do you think ppl who get weird about pride flags are trying to fill the hole left by their old hogwarts house? (a couple reblogs later) I don't want to define myself by someone else's intellectual property.
various RB: there are many better ways to color code yourself. pick a power ranger/warrior cat clan/etc.
the "joke" is that OP keeps repeating the line about someone else's intellectual property and ppl keep adding intellectual properties, but fr, I don't think those responses were suggestions to OP to do it! I think they were directed at, or about, the ppl being discussed!
OP: it's ridiculous that you are expected to need 18 skincare products. 0 products are required.
various RB: yeah, you can do it in 5/2/a little eyeliner
and OP is like "what about 0 products is not getting through to you" but again, I think on some level the statements are directed at people who are still in the 18 products stage of their life and can't reasonably be expected to jump to 0 and be okay. the ppl who won't believe that 0 is okay, but can still be talked down from their current place. and maybe they're not phrasing it that way bc they are themselves such ppl.
Maybe it's giving people too much credit, but I think we'd be happier if we stopped to ask if this annoying reblog or tag is in fact addressed to us and not the user's own followers or the people mentioned in the post.
and just to mitigate a problem from both ends--what if we started actually addressing who we're talking to when it makes a difference?
Easy ways to do that:
"for the room: if you can do X--"
"@ chat: couldn't be me but some of you?"
"@ the hogwarts house lovers: try power rangers!"
conversely I think people still need to practice this in the other direction, when they find something in the wild and assume it's addressed to them. bc the adhd hack isn't directed at the person with anxiety in particular. and like, that one school that shut down its elevators to make ppl take the stairs is completely out of line and should be sued, but the one with the motivational posters like "today's the day we take the stairs"--those were never addressed to people who can't take the stairs. why would motivational posters be assumed to be addressing everyone when advertisements ("get free math tutoring," "satisfy your wings craving," "we'll sell your house for you") are generally not?
and the eight million posts like "It's great that [X reform] would also help [some other group] but you need to care about [target group] first". There's a very sensible post (I think it's the bean soup rhetoric one) pointing out that when you already care about [target group], the thing isn't addressed to you. It's there to argue to people on the fence, to meet them where they are. Jennifer from the PTA's eyes might be glazing over when you talk about trans rights, but she might listen when you point out that a world where little girls get their genitalia examined before they can play sports is a bad one, or that she herself might need HRT at menopause. Jennifer's who those arguments are directed at.

The entire point of, OK, my phone really wants to call it Anastasia so I guess we’re doing that? The entire point of Anastasia (as administered by a board-certified Anastasiologist) during sugary. Sugary? Haven’t I suffered enough? The entire point of Anastasia during augury. Jesus Christ. Hold up. You know what, augury is preferable to sugary. Augury is obviously performed by an auger (makes sense if you give it a think) whereas sugary is performed by…? A sugardaddy? NO THANK YOU. Anyway. The entire point of Anastasia is so that you don’t know what music your sturgeon. Fuck right off. Was playing. While you were under. You’re not supposed to wake up from Anastasia and immediately realize you managed to get earwormed by Motörhead’s “Ace of Spades” during your sugary.
Born of an egg laid by a rooster (breaking traditional binary notions of sex and gender roles) and incubated by a toad (self-evidently one of the most transgender types of animal)

I'm tearing up...Hepburn went to Bryn Mawr and we watch Philadelphia Story there every May Day and every reunion, and it would mean so much to all the boys attending Bryn Mawr to know our most famous alum was one of them <3
