This beautiful and somewhat mysterious object is out in the store today. We did not know what to make of it at first, but it was then identified as a knitting sheath!
It is most likely from the 19th Century and would have allowed the user to keep knitting whilst looking after their children and doing the chores, talk about multi tasking! The long end would have been tucked into the top of their skirt, with the spikes holding the knitting in place. This one is quite special as it has all been carved from one piece of wood, including all of those chain links! Many knitting sheaths were made as love tokens and with all of it’s heart motifs, this one seems like a good candidate in that respect!

do you ever wonder what really big guys think about
i’ll tell you.
you ever see a really big guy at the zoo? he’s there for a reason. it’s probably to win an internet argument. if he’s there with another big guy (yes they’re gay) then they’re both there to settle a real life argument.
like you’ve seen little guys. you know, he’s just a little guy. you know what they’re about. they’re all sorts of kinds. he could be at the zoo for the penguins, or the bird house, or the butterfly house. that’s a good one. or the polar bears. but big guys have a different purpose at the zoo. i’m talking about the biggest guy, the guys who are doing neck exercises at the gym because their bench press has stalled at just over 200kg and it’s finally time to start wearing that toilet seat thing and attaching weights to it and bobbing your head like you’re at a real slow motion concert and the music is pretty good but not good enough to dance, and everybody at the gym is in two categories: they either know what the big guy is doing because god they wish they were a big guy, or they have not a goddamn clue what the big guy is doing but accept it zealously because he’s like, the biggest guy. that gets you an immediate fastpass. big guy pass. you need to train your neck if you’re going bench press over 200kg. trust me, you’re gonna want to. i mean these guys train their neck before they train their traps, do you get what i am saying? that is how big. they drop their weights after a deadlift because setting them down is extra effort and they need that energy to be a big guy.
so they’re at the zoo, right. they’re at the zoo because when you’re a real big guy there’s not a ton of questions left for you to answer. you’ve pretty much answered them all. except there’s always that last question: is that other guy bigger than me? once you get to the neck training level you’ve got a little tire underneath your skull, like a little floaty for your head, and you gotta have the traps to match otherwise your head just floats away. and when there’s a bunch of big guys it’s just too complicated to figure out the biggest guy. everyone’s gonna have a big neck, big traps, big chest, big ass. just the biggest asses on the biggest guys. but they vary, right? one guy has a big ass, the other guy has a big ass, you start comparing and things get out of hand and you never really find out who the biggest guy is.
so you get someone else to make the judgement call. there’s one specific biggest guy who can do that. if you see a big guy or two at the zoo, follow them and you’re gonna end up at the gorilla exhibit. see, gorillas guys size each other up like, all the time. they’re always trying to figure out who the biggest guy is for like, all sorts of reasons. and they ignore regular humans, for the most part. but when they see a sufficiently big guy they go kinda bananas. they look at the traps, and if you got a big neck you gotta have the traps. if two big guys go the zoo, the gorilla is always going to freak out at the biggest guy. if he ignores you, wow, that stings.
don’t do this more than once in your life, by the way, potential big guys. you really make ‘em mad, and you shouldn’t do that to the biggest guy. it’s just rude and it’s not good for the animals. settle your bet if you really have to and then don’t hang around.
i know guys who know guys who’ve been banned from the zoo. i know guys who say they’ve been banned from the zoo. pretty big guys but i wasn’t there to see the three white light confirmation if you know what i mean.

the uncommon allergy haver to anticapitalist pipeline
in January 2023, companies became required to label sesame on all products it was present in, and undergo rigorous cleaning procedures to prevent sesame contamination, after it was declared the 9th "major" food allergen in the United States.
so, instead of considering this a mandate to give a single shit about people with sesame allergies, almost all American companies decided to just add sesame flour to all their relevant products. because apparently that was cheaper.
it's almost impossible for me to find hot dog and hamburger buns without sesame now. and I am one of the lucky ones. I'm someone who just so happened to notice the label updates, not get caught unawares and have a severe allergic reaction. I'm someone lucky enough to be surrounded by multiple choices of supermarkets, and someone with the incredible privilege to have parents who'll help me search the shelves, and cover those costs that my allergies rack up. not everyone with allergies/other intolerances has all or any of those privileges to begin with.
most food allergies will never be prevalent enough that under capitalism, it will be profitable to give them the level of accommodation that they deserve. I speak from experience with a wide portfolio of hypersensitivity quirks when I say that the rarer the food allergy, the worse it gets.
and here's the thing: I can live without hamburger buns, with only superficial decreases in my quality of life. but sesame isn't my only rare allergy, and ever since this legislation hit, I've been lying awake at night, afraid of what I might lose access to next.
I've been lying awake at night wondering what I'll have to do to live, to obtain enough safe food to survive, if any of my other allergies get this same treatment. and I reiterate. I am one of the privlidged ones.
what these companies have done is completely legal. what these companies did has also cut off up to over a million people from what were previously safe, affordable staples of their diets. a system that has any incentive not to accommodate the dietary needs of any population is not a system that can be allowed to exist. this is the uncommon allergy haver to angry, fuming anticapitalist pipeline.
[Image description: two screenshots of tumblr tags, reading:
"also pea protein. mcdicks just added pea protein without any proper warning so if you got a legume allergy, don't eat their buns."
"did you know pea protein and pea flour is a thing. i didn't. but i sure found out quick after i ate frozen nuggets and when i got gravy from a restaurant. now i have to check fucking everything because i've also found pea protein in ice cream of all things." End description.]
thank you @butchwelddone and @insidejupiter respectively for these psas. signal boosting here for all my fellow legume-allergic folks, stay safe (and stay away from McDonalds buns)
