🔞 minors and potterheads pls dni. I don't mind minors following me (tho this is an adult space, but I'm not your parent), simply don't talk to me. Anything HP related gets you an insta block. This is not a discourse free space. Occasional mention of NSFW and dead dove stuff.
Finished the #pusheen!! Originally I wanted to add more than just the bow at the bottom but then everything I tried just looked too much and I left it at the bow.
And I absolutely can't keep the tension on the fabric even, it ended up so wonky haha 🙈

I'm done!! 🥳 I so love how it turned out, despite hating the backstitching lol. Not sure yet how to hang it in my Wall yet, since I have a set of three of those kits and have to see what fits them best. I'll see.

Done with the cross stitch! Now left is the backstitching and I absolutely do not feel that today 🙈🌸

Time for the #pusheen to get colors! Had to pause for a week for another secret project 🤫 I love the process of filling areas with colors ❤️#CrossStitch #xstitch #embroidery #fiberart @fiberarts@fedigroups.social
Secret project reveal that I worked on in the last week 🤭 Both hoop and charm are gifts for @DesasterTristan@mastodon.social , pattern by Collorfully Sarah.

Finally finished all #pusheen, now only the details are left. Took me a bit because I didn't stitch much and I seem to have fucked up my right hand :/ #CrossStitch #xStitch #embroidery #fiberart @fiberarts@fedigroups.social
Instead of bothering with backstitching I sewed myself a grime guard for my frame. Completely sewn by hand since I don't have a sewing machine. Maybe I'll do more 🤔 #handmade #sewing @fiberarts@fedigroups.social
Very spontaneously started the Copy Moon Joy pattern by ansitru . I'm still in awe of the #Artemis mission, saw this pattern and my whole body demanded this to be stitched! 😍🌕🚀

#Wish2hand ich suche ein Radio mit CD Player, das auch mp3 CDs abspielen kann. Radio ist mir gar nicht so wichtig, eher der CD Player, damit ich meine physischen Hörbücher hören kann, ohne jedes Mal den Rechner anmachen zu müssen. Porto kann ich übernehmen. Hat wer was rumliegen 🥺👉👈 #flohmarkt
The first pattern repeat is done, 3 to go! The contrast yarn is still very prominent. Curious how it will be when I come to the main body. It's literally years since I last knitted brioche, took me a few rounds to get back into it. #knitting #handmade @fiberarts@fedigroups.social
Very spontaneously cast on the Lizzie Sweater by Sosu with Lang Yarns Zen and plant dyed yarn from Handarbeit Hexe as contras yarn.

#BalconyPidgey family photo! The little blobs grow so fast! Their adult plumage starts to come through and they spend a lot of time with preening along with wing training (and hissing at me).
I was considering if I reinstall the livestream this weekend, but since I need to attatch the camera again after winter I'll wait until the little blobs leave the nest. The next chicks will come certainly after all. #pigeonContent #birdcontent
#BalconyPidgey baby blob tax. I think the right one is the younger one. It was falling asleep as I took the photo 🥹😍
#pigeonContent #birdcontent
#BalconyPidgey whenever a crow flies past: "Coo! Coo!! Alarm!! Get thee gone from my door!"
Same pidgey when the much more dangerous predator (hoomin, me) is much closer: "Oh look, those are my little Marshmallows. Take your time with the photos."
I love them 🙈
The little blobs are now too big to fit under the parents anymore. They still huddle against them, it's so adorable! They also start training their wings by flapping wildly and slapping everyone around them.
#pigeonContent #birdcontent
Made one or two new friends here. Some where brave enough to eat from my hand when I bowed down on their level.
If it weren't for the damn brat chasing the pigeons 🤬 #pidgeonContent #birdcontent
lmao my stalker found my masto account and I think reported me even? She went as far as digging up my dead tumblr account to insult me and create several bsky accounts to slide into my DMs and harrassed me. What a child! And why? Because I called out her bigotry towards transmascs. She now tries OBSESSIVELY to frame me as transmysoginist for MONTHS. Want drama and popcorn? Some more love letters from her are here:

To make the story short: Avoid any account with mkultra and/or cmdr-nova and any form of that in the name. Saves you some nerves.
Selling on a local flea market today and yes, I really did it. I'm selling my dice AND Dragon collection 😱 Along with my crafts and some books and stuff. Already got the first complain that 40€ for a hand knitted beanie is too much. Fuck off 🖕🙃
"Go touch grass!" For real tho, go touch grass, it puts things in perspective and gets you back in touch with nature around you. I recommend low level #birding. Crows and pigeons are found almost everywhere on earth and they are super easy to befriend. It simply takes peanuts, seeds and some patience. Do it regularly for a few days, roughly around the same time and you will see, that the birds start to behave different towards you. It won't take long and you have your own birb armada following you around. You'll learn to ready their body languages, how they communicate with you and how you in return can communicate with them. This gets you out and away from screens and one terrible newsline after another and you gain lots of new feathered friends.
Hello Bby 🥹
Sound on 🔊 for baby squeaks (and my chaos gremlins chatting in the background)
I got dogpiled by Talia Bhatt for this thread so I did everything right. Anyway.
Let's talk about a topic most feminists don't want to hear about: men, masculinity, and love.
Because misandry is real and we need to talk about it. In the following I will write mascs for simplicity. This includes: cis, trans and inter men, nonbinary people who feel connected to masculinity and any other person doing the same. If I mean specific groups I specify it.
I hope we all agree that patriarchy is our common enemy. But patriarchy =/= men
Patriarchy is a system that upholds a very specific group of men and only those: masculine, dominant, white, abled, cis, successful in his job and rich or at least rich enough to not worry about money. Everyone else feels some kind of oppression from this system. And even the winner of patriarchy are harmed by it, often without noticing it. Patriarchy teaches men to distance themselves from their emotions. Men who show emotions are seen as weak and not desireable. The probably most extreme consequence of this is the much higher rate of completed suicides among mascs worldwide.
We need to meet mascs with compassion and love, not rejection. If feminism tells me my whole life I'm a violent monster without offering me an alternative, why should I embrace feminism?

Second #BalconyPidgey baby blob left the nest yesterday early evening approximately 24h after it's sibling. I just spotted it in the tree near my balcony, completely soaked through since it's raining all night and morning. #pigeonContent #birdcontent
The first baby left the nest! 🥳 But it immediately got attacked by a crow 😱 Parent came to the rescue asap but then I couldn't see them anymore. I'm worried 😬 That's why I never encourage my crows near my balcony. #BalconyPidgey #pigeonContent #birdcontent
White cis Karens plaster their profiles with #YesAllMen bullshit, but when a trans persons comes and tells them yes all white cis people, suddenly it's not okay anymore, despite the fact that both are ment to call out the same patriarchal structures that alow violence.
One might come to the conclusion that it's not about calling out patriarchal violence but protecting the white cis woman's image of the sole victim of patriarchy who can never weal patriarchal violence herself 🫠
Auf dem Firmenausflug in den Bundestag Kuffiyah tragen, wie schlau ist das? Oder werde ich sofort von Bullen niedergeknüppelt?
Jegliche Kommunikation mit dem Jobcenter einfach vollkommen verschwendete Lebenszeit. Die Zeit gibt mir niemand zurück. #armutsbetroffen
Thr juvenile is back! It makes baby noises at #BalconyPidgey tho it's able to eat on it's own. It still pecks at the snack bar from time to time, weird invisible force field 🤣 It took a little moment to figure out to eat on Monday but by watching the adult feeding at the time it worked! #pigeonContwnt #birdContent
Wafrn looks like a good place to maybe test out 🤔 They have some based rule sets.
Apparently juvenile #BalconyPidgey is now part of the inventory. I named it Manon, inspired by my bestie 🤣 Manon sat at the snack bar for quite a while, but then got a good beating from the adult currently not on the nest. Manon begged to be fed but ultimately had to leave. #pigeonContent #birdcontent
Treating al the love letters from total randos hating me over blatant lies as a newsfeed to read of all the things I did while I was soundly asleep lmao. What's the newest talk in town? How many more accounts did I create last night and what did I say in my sleep? Tell me more! 🍿
Oh no! Over the Artemis excitement I forgot to share the newest #BalconyPidgey news 😱 When I came back on Monday from my little Easter gardening adventures, I immediately refilled the snack bar. The pigeon currently on nest duty immediately came down to gobble down the food and it's partner almost as quickly spawned out of nowhere. It's not like they are wild animals that can care for themselves perfectly well, they acted as if they were starting 🤣 But the real cool thing: Almost as quickly a juvenile wood pigeon joined them! It targeted my balcony as if it knew about it and interacted with the adults in a very familiar way. My pigeons have started nisting very early in the last years, last year it was already in February! This year it was quite late, we now have April and it's their first brood of the season. Is it tho? Since they were so late this year I had considered that they might have made a nest somewhere else, but then they returned to my balcony and I discarded the idea. But now with the juvenile appearing, I'm wondering if they indeed had a brood somewhere else this year already 🤔 That would mean that the chicks currently incubating are already number 29&30 😱
Also: pidgey just sneezed while I was typing this and oh my god 😍
#pigeonContent #birdcontent
Brave baby! It hopped right back in the nest in less time I need to post this 😆 That was scary enough!!
Something makes the adults a bit nervous this evening. They fly in and out all the time.
#BalconyPidgey #pigeonContent #birdcontent
Who is this gracious tulip???? Tulips aren't even my fave flowers 🤷
#BalconyPidgey baby blob tax. You can see that the parents don't really sit on the nest anymore but rather stand over the babys, while they cuddle into the parents fluff. They also pump themselves up and hiss at me from under the fluff 🤣 The parents are much chiller.
With every new brood the parents tend to build the nest a little bit more to the left. I probably need to place some stones into the other side of the planter to counter the weight soon 🤔
#pigeonContent #birdcontent
The little blobs aren't so little anymore and probably leave the nest within days now. Still squeaky and begging for food 🤣 And that's how close the parents let me come. Or rather come close to me as I was just sitting here as all evening and #BalconyPidgey landed there and stayed. #pigeonContent #birdcontent
