    @jonoabroad Was about to tweet the same thing. I mean, I know what they are, but why are they suddenly a Thing?


    @thebeebs @RachelAppel @jonoabroad Beardy guys in Aran sweaters singing shanties? Now you’ve got my attention. I thought Tiktok was just millennials doing Ratatouille duets. 😍


    3 years later, still pointing folks to @aurynn’s post on Contempt Culture. So many prominent folks in the industry fall back on tired trope of crapping on/joking about particular programming languages, and you just shouldn’t. It’s lazy and exclusionary. https://t.co/cgNARj3GCh


    @venks79 Exactly. 💯

    @mmastertheone Sweet! Thanks


    @charis AWS announced a new Location service last month at Reinvent. I haven’t gotten hands on with it yet, but may be worth a look as an alternative for your app: https://t.co/moo66CXGUw

    @mikeeedwards @TotherAlistair If you want to guarantee no disruptions, create another user account on the Mac that you only use for presenting, and don’t connect anything to it. I’ve done that in the past to make 100% sure. Also nice because you don’t have browser history, etc.

    @spidie Well, stubbornness and also being a tightarse. That wool was expensive, and I’m not gonna let it go to waste! 😂

    @BugHunterSam Sweet summer child. A Sydney Insta post triggered a global discussion about racism in the knitting community last year; Ravelry caused huge stir when they declared support for POTUS was equiv. to White supremacy and comments blocked, etc. Some knitters are very conservative. 🙁


    @LukeSleeman @BugHunterSam 15 years ago, The Knitters Guild of NSW was deliberately, stubbornly luddite. You wouldn’t believe the struggle to get them to send emails, accept online payments. Now it’s all different. But many in fiber arts want things to NEVER CHANGE, which def affects their politics.

    7 years ago I knitted the body of Orkney, an allover fairisle cardigan. I realised when I got to the shoulders that it was way too small, so I shoved it in a bag and went into deep denial. This week it was finally time to deal with it… 🧶 (1/3) https://t.co/yVVoEYwSS1


    I started by frogging the whole thing, which gave me a massive allergy attack! Today (wearing a mask and with the Snook’s help) I wound all 12 colours into skeins and tied them securely. 🧶😷 (2/3)


    Then I gave them a bath in wool wash (to remove the dust and relax the kinks) and hung them to dry. Tomorrow I’ll re-wind into balls and start afresh! 🧶 (3/3) https://t.co/jH8weyJz9N


    @ChloeCondon The taco story did crack me up tho 😂🌮🌮


    Watching a doc about the Mercury 7 astronauts to escape reality, and there’s John Glenn, a true hero and patriot 🧑🏻‍🚀🎉, and everything’s awesome, and then he’s addressing Congress in the Capitol and I have to remember about those terrorist insurrectionist assholes again. 🙁 https://t.co/mY9waJ2SE4


    @shandogthecat @Pinboard @gilmae – See? Middle-aged women!


    This is amazing. ❤️🧵🪐 https://t.co/qpFYO8yhqM


    @ElemSciTchr That’s wonderful! I sent it to my Mom @susiegii who runs a quilt shop back in Indiana. How awesome would it be to recreate it?!


    @martijnfrazer That is VERY cool! And if @the_snook and I are ever allowed to travel again in Europe, it’s definitely going to be on our list of places to visit. ❤️

    Here’s #lanatus in all its glory! ❤️❄️🧶 What a difference blocking makes. The design really pops now, and you can see how the changing needle size affects the shape at the bottom. Lovely design, @susancrawfordvintage! 👏 https://t.co/iGNPidH9tB


    @randomknits @gilmae I have also repeated that anecdote, so it’s possible we’re all three sharing it around in a circle. 😂


    @kouky @mattallen I read the book, wept and wept, and couldn’t bring myself to watch the movie. I decided in a similar scenario I’d take the mother’s route.


    Food for thought? French bean plants show signs of intent, say scientists – Crowley WAS RIGHT! 😈 https://t.co/qmYetYw9IE


    The last time I rode a bicycle in snow was on campus at Notre Dame 22 years ago! I forgot how scary/fun it is. 😂 @ Munich, Germany https://t.co/zfI65ElydK


    @codepo8 The biggest problem I have riding here is that I keep giving way to cars when they are waiting for me. I’ve been conditioned in Sydney to expect all drivers to be hostile and want to knock me off the road!


    @netpraxis Thank you!!


    @cczona Thank you! Fun to knit, too (despite the acres of plain stocking stitch…)


    @dunneteach Thanks Kerry!


    @metaskills Thanks! Didn’t quite make it to the finish line during Reinvent, but hey, there’s still some more sessions to come, so I’m calling it a victory anyway. 🙂


    @netpraxis @carlyfindlay Are you a knitter, Carly?? It’s a really fun pattern to make. (The plain part felt like it took foreeevvvver though.)


    @vertis Yeah, we’ve got one for the ex-Canva folks too… (If any alumni want access, just hit me up.)

    @darkosubotica Does that mean you can come back to Germany now? 😂 (Also, booo to Tweetdeck for not recognising and offering to translate Croatian!)

    The most beautiful phrase to hear on a wintry day: “I’m going to bake us a cake.” 😍

    @bron2042 I used it for a bit for learning some German last year! Still have the app on my phone.


    @bron2042 I found a couple downloadable decks with different vocab and questions, and it worked well. I just lacked the discipline to keep up with it every day. I also used it to help study for a work certification, and for that I created my own flash cards. (I passed!)


    RT @darkosubotica: David here wrote a few words on my reinvent talk about AWS systems manager 😍 https://t.co/51C8Yyzsbu


    @_hhandoko It used to be a standalone app but they pivoted it to browser-based a few years back. I was skeptical but was eventually convinced to migrate and subscribe. They provide lots of budgeting and financial literacy training too via their newsletter and blog.


    Last night a made a video showing how I weave in ends to finish a piece of knitting. I hope it’s useful to you! https://t.co/pLIt7xAnwb


    @bodil Thank you for this thread! Rodd was thinking of watching it, but he will steer well clear.


    Good grief, Aziraphale and Crowley are on there twice! (And I confess I read a LOT of it.) 🙃 https://t.co/I1Qpgd2BYu


    @bodil I went looking for Finn/Poe a while back but couldn’t find anything I liked. Got any recs?


    @bodil Ahhh! We were literally saying last night that it’s time to finally watch Clone Wars/Rebels.


    @laimelde Wait. Are you saying there’s a difference between / & | ???


    @laimelde 😳 I can’t believe I’ve read an (embarrassingly large) number of fanfics without knowing that.


    This. I talked on a knitting livestream for *four hours* on Sunday chatting to people on Twitch and it was honestly the best I’ve felt in weeks. I miss people. I miss variety. I miss conversations. (And yes, I miss an audience too.) https://t.co/HuJYUOvlJ2


    @yassmin_a Haven’t you seen the finale of Gossip Girl, where Chuck and Blair have to quickly get married so she won’t have to testify against him in his murder trial? They mean that. 😂
