Good morning, CoSo!

A lot of gullible people think that they're being "open-minded." Open-mindedness is a good thing. But it means considering options without prejudice; it does not mean disregarding centuries of research and well-established facts; it does not mean latching onto the latest idea to come along just because you find it sexy.

@PaganMother I love that. I hope this one survives to be old and ratty and loved. I made him for my nephew’s first birthday 🩷

@ExecutiveFunction404 witchcraft! It’s crochet, he came out super lopsided because I couldn’t see what I was doing with the fleece yarn

@Soldier_Solitude good morning! ☀️ I have social anxiety and I’m an introvert, and I’m also just really awkward, so it’s hard to connect with people. I’ve tried a few times to make friends with other women my age but for various reasons they didn’t last. Most recently my closest friend decided to move to another state but didn’t say a word about those plans until it was set in stone and they had a move date, and then I pretty much never heard from her again.

@SaltyVeruca agreed. But I do worry sometimes that it’s something I’m doing wrong rather than just part of adulthood…

I don’t know how to make (and keep) friends anymore.

If anyone was wondering how the teddy bear I confidently announced I was making for my baby nephew is coming along, I can say with total certainty that it’s the jankiest bear I’ve ever seen in my life.

I also not look anything like Kate McKinnon.

I wore my Barbie shirt to lunch today and the waitress told me I kind of look like Kate McKinnon. Which I would’ve taken as a compliment, except this is what Kate looked like in Barbie:

@ExecutiveFunction404 thank you! I guess I’ll find out for sure when I wash it 🙃

First attempt at heat transfer vinyl and I’m not sure it will last, but I made a Barbie shirt and I’m so psyched to wear it to lunch with my friend tomorrow 💕

@annamousse depends what the data was. If it may have involved their SSN, I’d contact the SSA and see if anyone is trying to use it. Otherwise I’d just shred the letter.

@whonat I’m too chicken to do that lol. I spent like 5 hours on it yesterday and I’m not done

Trying to clean up my email today. I started with like 60,000+ items total across my inbox tabs. This might take a while.

Here is another picture of her because besides being amazing, she was also very cute.

Maybe it’s weird to mark the birthdays of a dog who is no longer alive, but today would’ve been Georgia’s 16th birthday. She was my best friend for 13 years, nearly half my life at the time she died. I still miss her terribly and I think about her often. She didn’t like toys but she loved cardboard, and she was a great protector. She once chased away a burglar who tried to get into my apartment while I was out. She also liked trying to catch fish in the pond at the park (but never succeeded).

This dog was spotted desperately trying to reinflate his friend. Thankfully he figured it out. 13/10 for both (h/t we rate dogs)

Pinterest just asked me to disable my ad blocker to "get the full experience of Pinterest." ... The full experience being pins that are actually ads hidden among the real pins? Yeah, no thanks. I swear, mainstream social media gets more late-stage-capitalism by the day.
