Melt the ice, knitting in solidarity from Italy.

Can't keep the exact formatting, but will retain the line breaks. It's a multi-part toot due to character limits. Quote opens and closes with 4 dashes

Murdered by I.C.C January 24, 2026

by Amanda Gorman

We wake with
no words, just woe
& wound. Our own country shoot
ing us in the back is not just brutal
ity; it's jarring betrayal; not enforcement,
but execution. A message: Love your people & you

Pretty sure everyone who saw me post about #AmandaGorman’s poem the other day knew this quilt top was coming

I’d also like to thank @kristinHenry, who’s recent ink drawings of the MN flag gave me inspiration when I was looking for the perfect complement to Gorman’s words

After being let go from Microsoft, Clippy fell on hard times
May 2026 bring us less mess, more moss and less stress, more peace. And courage to rip out the barbed wire along our borders.

Today’s walk, along an old wall marking the 🇫🇷🇨🇭border in the Jura mountains was almost entirely over deep frozen moss, covering everything in a springy layer of green.
Have you ever wondered what a fleece jacket would turn into if you left it in the woods? I wonder how long it took for this one to turn into a mossy sculpture? These are deep, deep woods, and we were far from a path.

Just gorgeous, haunted landscapes.
