At almost 14, Betsy is pretty slow these days. Unless there’s a ball involved. Or a stick. Or a treat. ❤️ Her first photo from the rescue page, and a glamour shot of my BFF I took this afternoon. #dog #dogsofbluesky #goodgirl
Good. These are screenshots of text messages I received during that election cycle. It was jaw-droppingly brazen.
Knitting my first wearable. We have a sleeve - I repeat, we have a sleeve! #knit #knittersofbluesky
I’m primarily a crocheter, but I’m currently working on my first-ever knit cardigan and I’ve managed to get the sleeves onto DPNs. Feeling like an absolute sorcerer. ✨ #knit #knittersofbluesky
UW Madison was also hacked. They are in finals and tomorrow is the last day of the semester. 😳
Trying so hard to be empathetic right now but then I think about whatever that gross hotel thing was and… meh. 🤷♀️
We’ve had 13.5 years with this big girl and it’s killing me that our time together is drawing short. Never, ever enough. ❤️😓
Reminder: this dude literally tried to pay people in WI to vote the way he wanted them to. 🫤
Saw these comments on a thread about Trump’s Tuesday threat to Iran and… oooof. 🫣
As opposed to how my poor old girl was feeling this morning being dropped off at the clinic for a dental procedure. 😓❤️ #quakingBetsy
Hegseth is really giving Salacious B. Crumb to Trump’s Jabba the Hut vibes.
Teddy bear, Betsy joins you in solidarity. This shit is exhausting.
Speaker Johnson, in the past seven days there was literally a fundraising email. 🤬
Tonight my high school senior had his variety show. Four years ago he wanted to try barbershop. Now there’s a group of sophomores carrying the torch. Thankful for the arts and these kids. ❤️
When your 23-yo botanist son’s 3rd grade teacher sends a packet of rare native seeds for him… 🥹❤️ #thankyouteachers
