extend the life of your clothes by covering holes or stains with embroidery floss and yarn while giving them new cool zombie flair! you don’t even have to be neat, the more imperfect the weave the more organic the result. the best mended garments are almost fungal, covered in sick multi-colored lichen.

I recently got this wooden handle looking thing to mend clothes and it works so well. I love using sparkly thread for all my mending. Adds a little pizazz.

it’s not bed rotting to rest when you’re tired, run-down, or sick. I can feel where capitalist dogma has seeped into me every time I feel doubt or shame for how much time I’ve spent in bed or doing very little, or the fear that I’ll never be motivated to do anything again. it’s not true! inevitably after only 3 days of solid rest I naturally crave activity, projects, organization, work, and not as penance. rec for rest: screen time of any kind is not the rest I’m talking about… we’re talking rest as a monotask.

was šŸ¤šŸ» this close to screenshotting someone’s wisdom here and posting it to my ig stories when I realized I hadn’t seen that before and maybe there’s a very good reason.

Because the fact being that Whatever's in front of me Is covering my view So I can't see what I'm seeing in fact I only see what I'm looking through …if that isn’t the most accurate depiction of perspective I’ve ever heard
