If you have an ancestry account they’ve updated the regions again & they’ve wonderfully granular FYI I use ancestry because as a descendant of chattel enslavenent ancestral information is lacking for obvious reasons so this provides insight otherwise not available and that is most important to me

I meant to share this awhile back (and I also missed Star Trek day), but here's the full image of my connected covers (with the left and right sides of the Cerritos filled in). Enjoy!

The White House normally gets $2.5 million a year for maintenance. Trump’s team has allocated $875 million.   That’s 350 years’ worth of the usual budget spent by a single administration.

Caught SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY this afternoon and absolutely loved it. The movie had everything I adore about Spidey comics. Action! Humor! Heart! Team-Ups! But there was one personal thing that felt like a beautiful coincidence...

Paramount+ wanted to use the image on the left as a poster for the wrath of Khan, so they used everyone's least favorite technology to generate the rest of the image.

Possibly unpopular opinion? I think artists should get to sign the art they make for book covers. It should be right there, on the front, because it’s never been more important to showcase the humanness of art. And also there are many times when I see a beautiful cover and wonder, “Who made this?”

i'm soooo close to being done this quilt. i finally got the last of the ~54 hand appliqué elements on last night. Once the hand quilting thread I ordered arrives I'll get the batting sandwiched, quilt it, and actually finish off this project!

Repost this if you’ve gone to the doctor or you’ve seen a dog. I’m a teacher trying to show my students that it’s possible to repost stuff under certain circumstances like if a post asks you to and you’ve gone to something or seen something

I remade my Feeling Very Cross quilt from last year in a different color palette, for a very good reason. I gave the original to our daughter when she was diagnosed with leukemia in June, and she’s used the quilt daily.

This is the quietest month I've had, possibly ever. I have a favour to ask, if you like my work, could you please give it a share to help it get in front of more people? Thank you :) #watercolours #birdart 🪶

More context on this #Artemis II image: * This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right * The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon: ☀️🌍🚀🌕

I'm not dr but nearly anything related to extreme vision change needs medical attention. I'd feel panic too in that situation but have no idea if an additional symptom or a reaction to situation.

How did these men know to stay away from Epstein? One googled him, one asked his mom for advice, and one actually listened to what Epstein said to him and quickly realized he was a witless misogynist. It wasn't that hard, and every scientist who claims they didn't know is either lying or stupid.

Let's try this again 👋 Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA. I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?

I finally finished this Enterprise D LCARS cross stitch! Was supposed to take about a year, but longcovid had other plans for my brain and ability to count. So it's been over four years instead. It has a bazillion-jillion stitches in it.
