A lil prayer for regime changes today in Israel and soon in the U.S. Maybe we’ll get to see them and all their accomplices behind bars.

At the dentist’s waiting room, sporting my crochets: melt the ice hat, fluffy cowl, and new tweed sweater. #ShowMeYourKnits #knitsky #crochet #MeMade

The elections are on next Tuesday, and so much is at stake, including the soul of the Democratic Party when it comes to transgender people. I am asking you to leave a very small number of races blank in which a Democrat has embraced extreme anti-trans hate. I make my case here.

The sweater is about 10-15% too big, even though I reduced the XS pattern measurements by 5%. You live and you trans masc. Working on the pocket. #knitsky #crochet

Why is the second sleeve taking so much longer? #knitsky #crochetsky

Finally got to watch Jane Schoenbrun’s Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, and I think you should too! #filmsky

we went from cautioning students that its not "academic" to suggesting they read it instead of asking ai in less than three years

Get out the vote!!!

I used to remember all the dialogues. I took this a couple of months ago in Amsterdam

I’ve been released from IDF custody with a “warning,” apparently because of my public profile (I told them I wasn’t even a congressmember yet, just a nominee). But several dozen rabbis & participants harvesting olives with me are still in detention.

They really are all creeps

If you haven’t already, I highly recommend reading @mihailova.bsky.social‘s Coraline: A Closer Look at Studio LAIKA’s Stop-Motion Witchcraft It’s open access! #booksky www.bloomsbury.com/us/coraline-...

Classic

I only recently started noticing beautiful sweaters in films. We just watched Bad Apples, which was really good, with the bonus of the lead wearing so many cool knits. If you search the film none of them come up. #knitsky #booksky #filmsky

I love everything about this

It’s done!!! I am now the proud owner of a shawl. #FOFriday #knitsky #crochet

A #Black, #disabled performer was stealing scenes in 1926. His name was Steve “Peg” Reynolds. Most haven't heard of him. We're changing that. @kristenklopez.bsky.social covers it at #IndieWire. Meet him. Pass it on. www.indiewire.com/features/gen... #2026Folklife #OfThePeople2026 #DisabilityFilm

UPDATE: joined shawl! Did one round all over. Do I need to do more? How many? #knitsky #crochetsky #knit

Update: did another round on the squares and landed on joining island #WIPWednesday #knitsky #crochetsky

I just found a completely AI-hallucinated page about my ANIMATED FILM & DISABILITY. Not a single word here is remotely true, obv. If you can buy a book directly from the publisher/bookstore, or borrow it from your public/university library, please do. iupress.org/978025306450... #booksy

I used to show this clip as an introduction to crip time. RJ Mitte dies by suicide aged 34 Rest in Power

First attempt at making a shawl. I do realize all the squares are way too small to make it work. I just got more of this wool yarn to add another round on all of them. If all works out it’ll also be my first attempt at wearing a shawl, but there’s still a long way to go. #knitsky #crochet

Interviewer: can you explain this gap in your resume? Film scholar: "binge watching TV, research for a potential next book."

A young pregnant woman swings above an abyss, terrified. You may think if you never get pregnant you may not have that fear, but the dread of the unknown is universal. Anthology Film Archives presents: ON BEING A WOMAN. Wednesday, October 14th at 7PM. www.anthologyfilmarchives.org/film_screeni...

Autumn miracles 🌈

Went to see some improv last night at Boom Chicago. While I love improv (the Upright Citizens Brigade kind where Rachel Bloom pops in) & it was pretty good, I think next time it’ll be the old fashioned stand up show for us.

Our keynote roundtable from the 2nd International Trans Studies Conference in 2024 on "The Trans Tipping Point Ten Years Later was published in QED! @laurah.bsky.social @caelkeegan.bsky.social @jbcole-kurz.bsky.social If you want to find out why we think it's BS, read this doi.org/10.14321/qed...

Please help me read this handwriting! This is what I’ve got so far: “In the Christian religion these keys were always [?] to St. Peter [?] to some.”

Little Roy’s entire Battle for Seattle album, but this one’s a fav

This + her kindness. Keep showing love to @sophianyx.bsky.social

I’ll take this as an opportunity to post the trailer for my favorite feature length animated film of all times: ROCKS IN MY POCKETS by the brilliant @signebaumane.com A funny film about depression.

I finally got a hold of ALL MY DEAD CATS by @sesmith.lol!!! The bookstore only ordered this one book for me, & when I asked if more were coming they thought I needed another copy. Naturally, I hyped the book and explained that they better stock up to meet the huge demand. Dying to dive in! #booksky

Just a few of the dozens of pics I took in the video store. Physical media rules!

If you’re in Amsterdam, don’t miss the Ulrich Seidl exhibit at the EYE! It’s mostly long clips from some of the films, very well curated and designed. They’re also screening many of the full films in the theater’s program. A real treat. #filmsky www.eyefilm.nl/en/programme...

Just came home from the video store. They rent VHS' and DVDs AND VCRs and DVD players. The display had Clerks and The Watermelon Woman!!! They also have crochet nights. This is literally what my dreams are made of. I took a million pictures but too excited to pick one rn.
