Wow, Do You Ever Go Onto Tumblr Every Day But Completely Forget To Post About The New Things You're Crocheting

For all those who need this right now. Stay strong! Support your friends and be there for each other.

You've gotta love Jews more than you hate Nazis.

You've gotta love trans folks more than you hate TERFs.

You've gotta love your unhoused neighbors more than you hate the billionaires.

You've gotta love immigrants more than you hate ICE.

You've gotta love queer kids more than you hate christian fundamentalists.

You've gotta love fat people more than you hate the diet industry.

You've gotta love disabled people more than you hate the insurance companies.

You've gotta love your fellow humans more than you hate the worst that humanity has to offer. You don't have to like every person you're fighting for, and you sure as hell don't have to give up your righteous anger, but hate is ultimately corrosive.

You've gotta love.

Got my mail club today from @thestarfishface. Had to rearrange a bit, but enjoy the children!

2022 Faves ♥ It’s fun to look back and see all the seasons represented. Which one is your favorite?

hello for the love of god hi. if you have a chronically ill/disabled loved one who is constantly flaking on plans, unable to attend events due to illness, please please please keep inviting them to things anyway. being excluded from events due to illness or the assumption that we won't be able to attend is the worst feeling, even if the assumption is true. a cursory 'hey we are planning to do xyz, i know this thing isn't always easy for you but we'd love to see you there if at all possible' truly means the world. better yet, make plans with your chronically/ill disabled friend in mind and help them navigate the accessibility of it all or choose what you do together. failing that, if you haven't explicitly been told to stop inviting them to things, continue to include them in your plans because being deliberately excluded hurts like hell

Goodness gracious, how is it August already?? Well, better late than never to post these, I guess.

Pride month and Disability Pride month have both come and gone but that doesn't mean that one's pride or disabilities have just gone away. In fact, one of my invisible disabilities kicked my butt this last week, which is why I haven't been able to do much of anything besides rest. So now that I'm able to work again, it's back to finishing orders and working on Sailor Scouts.

Currently on the docket for August:

One (1) Baby alien

One (1) traditional bee

One (1) woodpecker

Sailor Scout to be determined

Oh, and one super special, super silly goose for a certain vampiric voice actor...

Anyway, here's what's left of the pride buddies!

Fishies $20 + $5 shipping

Turtles and bees $10 or 2 for $15 + $5 shipping

Omgosh tiny phoenix!

I've always made use of dragon iconography, using them to represent resilience and determination. A phoenix rises from the ashes, but a dragon doesn't burn in the first place.

But I can't always be a dragon. Sometimes I do burn. And then I have to get back up again. Right now I need to get back up, so I decided to work on a phoenix pattern. I reckon a lot of y'all need to get back up too, so remember that even a tiny phoenix rises.
