oh god I got a picture of the moon you tumblr bitches are gonna LOVE
LOOK AT HER!!!! CRESCENT MOON DURING A BEAUTIFUL SUNSET!!!! SHE’S BISEXUAL!!!!!!
The Bisexual and Transgender pride flags colour picked from literally the most beautiful image of the moon ever
Very specifically, the (double) crescent moon was proposed as a bi symbol in 1998 (designer’s name Vivian Wagner from me looking it up just now). As a symbol it is possibly slightly older than the bi pride flag (designer’s name Michael Page, released December 1998 apparently) and definitely slightly older than the trans pride flag (designer’s name Monica Helms, released 1999). It just didn’t catch on as much in most places.
Like, the colours in the photo are beautiful, it’s stunning, but the bi connection has another layer too! If I wasn’t meant to be asleep I’d try to make an edit of the photo with a double moon. I always want more love for not-just-stripes queer symbols.
Idk what it is with spring for me that makes me put my knitting needles away (or well… Not entirely away) and instead sit down by the loom (or thr sewing machine). But here we are again. The seasons of crafting doing the circle thing it does.
Does anyone remember the little bedside carpets I started in November 2023? Barely me either. Which is apparent with how different in size they came out :p But I’m really happy with them anyway. And thankful it used up almost all that handspun Gotland that I spun while learning to spin.
I wove this overshot style, where you alternate one pick pattern thread and one pick tabby throughout. And while I love the fabric it created, I’m not sure I’ll do this type of structure again for a long while. I just couldn’t get into the rhythm of it while threadling. Idk. I’m happy I tried it, and I’m happy with the result. But now all I crave is some simple twill straight draw XD
the other side of creativity and bravery and encouragement and support and to be quite frank - visibility and attention - is that you WILL annoy people! and that is also perfectly okay and part of the bravery of the process - putting stuff out there and sharing it knowing that its purpose is NOT to be Loved By All. It is to CONNECT you with other people who will UNDERSTAND you not to grovel for clout from people who aren’t really interested. we don’t make things to be liked by bots. we make them to find each other.
It is not enough to get into a comfy sleeping position- one must go through several and spin like a rotisserie chicken to arrive at the position you started with.
Took a weaving class over the weekend and finally finished the project! The class was over summer and winter weaving structure, so when you turn the fabric over the colors are reversed. This pattern is 160 years old. I love the colors I chose for this project!
the real horror is a months or years long time loop. no speedrunning your torture here. you have to sit with the consequences of your actions for a loooong time before the release of knowing the consequences and actions have been erased.
but oh, all the actions and consequences are gone. those relationships you built? empty. you can never build them again without the constant guilt of knowing that it’s not as real the second, third, thirtieth time when you already know all their secrets and they none of yours.
but you can’t hide. you can’t isolate yourself because what if this is the time the loop breaks and then what? years gone by of missed chances with people who have changed you a thousand times and now circumstances have changed. you can never build back what was washed away by your own inaction. they’ll never be able to meet you like they did the first time if you don’t choose to meet them the first time every time

You can never have the same child twice. How many loops does it take a grieving time traveller to accept that.
