honestly yeah, fiber arts is magic. you cast spell of warm gloves, spell of nice hat, spell of stuffed animal.

material component: yarn

wand: single hooked wand or double pointed wands, depending on caster's preference

mechanical component: specific motions repeated in a particular pattern

time component: a while

look seriously the first step in a knitting recipe is "cast on", and then it's a bunch of letters and numbers incomprehensible to anyone not versed in the arcane art. that's a spellbook. yes it's a book of knitting patterns but also. it's a spell book.

i need to start a collection of Takes About Alienation From The Material Conditions Of Production That Only Make Sense If You Yourself Are Alienated From The Material Conditions Of Production

learning to knit has instilled in me the "we have food at home" impulse about knitted sweaters where whenever i see a sweater that i like i'm like "okay but i shouldn't buy this, i can just make it myself." except unlike having food at home, making it myself does not save me any time or money. in fact it takes much more of both

I'm currently knitting in my favorite coffee shop and so far 2 middle aged dudes in trucker hats have stopped to ask me about my project and how knitting works. Normally only little old ladies or other knitters talk to me about it, so this has been a fun change of pace

Like, this project is pretty complex so I get that it invites questions, this just isn't who I would expect them from

The project in question with my blueberry cornmeal muffin and floral lemonade

finished my hat finally and its super warm and comfy and i keep putting it on and then feeling the strong urge to knit more warm items. and then i take the hat off and can be normal. and then i look at the hat. and im like oh its such a warm and comfy hat though why would i not wear it ? so i put it back on and then the urge returns.

may have knit a cursed hat, basically ?

made a brown butter dutch baby w homemade spiced plum jam and a drizzle of cream for breakfast, shared with my girlfriend who lovingly humors me even tho she doesn’t like dutch babies all that much. we ate in content late-morning quiet, sat beside the dining room chairs that have fallen victim to our piles— of stuffed backpacks for grad-school and an ever growing tower of my most frequently worn handmade winter knits, the items worn multiple times a day to brave the bright cold december when i take the dog outside. this pile consists of a big blue cable sweater i made from wool, a pair of fingerless gloves i knit w scrap yarn, and a soft hood crafted from orange alpaca. i am loving wintertime, with its first true snow of the season and its warm spices and its stockings hung fruitful with gifts on the bookshelf, for lack of a proper mantleplace. i am grateful for the candles and the coziness and the citrus fruits, and for watching the cat perch in the bedroom windowsill, real estate that in the summer months the AC unit occupies with all of its bulking and whirring and thrumming. it is a gift to witness her savoring her seasonal view of the snow blanketed backyard, her gaze trailing determinedly after the flutter of birds.

Time Travel Question 50: Early Modernish and Earlier 4

These Questions are the result of suggestions a the previous iteration.This category may include suggestions made too late to fall into the correct earlier time grouping. In some cases a culture lasted a really long time and I grouped them by whether it was likely the later or earlier grouping made the most sense with the information I had. (Invention ofs tend to fall in an earlier grouping if it's still open. Ones that imply height of or just before something tend to get grouped later, but not always. Sometimes I'll split two different things from the same culture into different polls because they involve separate research goals or the like).

Please add new suggestions below if you have them for future consideration. All cultures and time periods welcome.

GILMORE GIRLS 4.03 | The Hobbit, the Sofa, and Digger Stiles

blood dripped from Poseidon's mouth, red.

red.

the day they overthrew Kronos, child-eater (stomach acid crawling around them, after maw of teeth grazing his small, child body), his golden ichor bled red.

god blood, degraded into a mortal's.

the day Typhon, father of monsters (as big as their father was, as big as the Titans with sharp claws and teeth) ripped out Zeus' tendons, his blood was red.

Poseidon, god of the tides, son of Kronos, looked up at the dark shape stood above him, his own golden trident in his hand, the teeth like prongs drenched in red.

Odysseus is a mortal. was a human.

sharp webbed ears spread out on the side of their head, scales grew around their neck and arms, shining like a coral reef, illuminated by their growing red eyes, that were shrunken to slits.

Odysseus' teeth glinted in the lightning, showing their unnaturally sharp point.

monster.
