I want to get cross-stitching supplies but would rather give my money to an independent business that'll ship to me instead of JoAnn's Monolith. any suggestions? I may need everything from cloth to hoop/frame; I know I still have needles, but I'm definitely going to need a good selection of threads, even if I do find my old stash. (reblogs ok)

Folks, I've been remiss in my earlier goal of re-posting this at least every other week:

Me, 1st part of the day: [rails for 200 posts against boomers, corny pop songs, the rich, that weird moss growing out of the downspout across the street, etc.]

Me, 2nd part of the day: [watches a now-ancient Paul Simon sing "An American" Tune," which was my fave pop song in my teen years. I weep happy tears and curl up in a fetal ball.] 🎭

Great. I hope I can figure out how computers work. :P

Now that the wheels are falling off the services-based economy, maybe even liberals can see what's been evident to the working class all along: the services-based economy is a sham economy, rooted not in goods, but instead busywork that doesn't need to exist. That isn't to say all services are bullshit, but now we're seeing a lot of fucking shit isn't as "essential" as we thought.

“Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with blood from people killing, stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record, while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing songs, write poetry and even whittle statues. The story of civilization is the story of what happened on the banks. Historians are pessimists because they ignore the banks for the river.”

— Will Durant, "Life", Oct. 18, 1963
