it's almost almost christmas
aldis, huh?
I was being hunted for sport in an Aldi's.
did someone mention crochet
recently made a crocheted scarf (it's a little short, but i still like it), was my first ever "big" project.
i stole two whole spools of yarn from my sister to make it. would steal again.
(i actually finished it like a month ago, but the thought to actually wear it in public never occurred to me until yesterday lol, and it felt great)
10/10 would recommend crocheting
honestly, i might actually just start something new right now
i am thinking how much poorer, how much less colorful the world would be if art was only made by "professionals." if all the music, all the stories, all the sketches & paintings & craftwork of the world was created only by the small category of people able to make a decent living from their art. imagine if the only people allowed to create were the experts & the renowned & those aspiring to the top. what a grey world that would be. how much joy would be bleached away! i love you people who create for the sake of creating, i love you artists who do art for tiny audiences, i love you people who make things even just for one person, even just for themselves, even if no one's watching, thank you thank you thank you for decorating the world in which we all exist

a while ago I made a post showing off a system I came up with for writing English in Cyrillic, while still preserving the wacky features of English orthography we all know and love. I never actually bothered formally defining how it’s supposed to work though beyond just a few key details, so let’s do that now!
