So everybody, what are we going to talk about next?

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 7, 2020:

This group will stay up and running as long as there are people contributing to it. I am curious as to how long it will take for Donnie Dumpsterfire to fade away. As long as he is in the headlines, I will keep swinging at him.

The family I care about alllll voted for Biden. My ex voted for Trump and told our three daughters. They are not happy with him, but they're good daughters and it won't change anything at the moment. They've just lost more respect for him if that was possible. I don't ask friends how they vote, but most of my friends are atheist/agnostic and liberal. I don't have to ask.

Some thoughts on broadening the appeal of Agnostic.

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 6, 2020:

I think that what you are proposing sounds good. I don't think that it will change the appeal of the site, at least not for me. I understand why you want to attract younger people, and I think it is a good thing. I think if you change the tagline to people who require evidence you're going to lose some people. It makes it too cumbersome. Your post, and the election have brought home to me very forcefully that my time is passed. Soon the Pinata will have no more use, no Trump to bash. Which is a great deal of "Thank goodness!" but also omg my niche is soon to be obsolete. And then I realize I am also becoming obsolete, and I guess that is the natural order of things. I will hang around to offer what wisdom and perspective I have, that is what we wise old women do.

The importance of knowing when to stop on a project.

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 6, 2020:

I am a quilter, and cross stitcher, and crochet, and knit. And a few other crafts as well. Quilts have a stopping point.... in theory. I started a throw quilt this summer while I was between jobs. It was to be made to cull out my fabric stash. Then I stated working from home. I use the guest bedroom. That bed has a quilt I made that was made with a former BF in mind when he was supposed to move to Nebraska to be with me. Well, he couldn't cut the cords holding him back. But I kept the quilt, and afghan that coordinated with it, and when I moved to my current home it went on the guest room bed. As I'm training for my job I kept looking at the quilt and I thought - I need to replace that, I don't like the memories. The throw quilt grew to a full size plus quilt and I kept buying more fabric for it. It is currently at the long arm shop and should be done soon. I made an afghan for the bed as well, and it ended up HUGE! I would crochet while talking on the phone with the boyfriend. They will both go to a any charity that will take it that isn't Goodwill. I'm not a fusser, when it is good enough I am usually happy to be done. Sometimes I use patterns, and sometimes I use patterns for general guidelines and meander a bit. I am kind of between projects and I've just decided I need to make a Thanksgiving quilt. Maybe wall hanging, maybe throw. I don't think it is going to be done for Thanksgiving 2020. I made a baby doll quilt for my granddaughter for her birthday/christmas (same day) She is getting a baby doll and cradle. She will be turning 4, and is getting a sibling in the spring. I am thinking about making some doll clothes as well. I'm never bored, I just can't decide which project to work on.

Quilt for my seven year old grandson--who charmed me into making it for him.

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 6, 2020:

I don't watch TV and I'm very selective about where I get my news. I also head for my bedroom about 2 hours before I actually go to sleep. I read, possibly work on puzzles, and meditate, journal, listen to music, and then try to go to sleep. I'm doing OK, but not great. I'm happy to be doing OK. I also am usually very careful with my diet, too much sugar/caffeine/chocolate and I will not sleep for days. Giving up chocolate totally sucks, but in the long run it will be better for me.

Is Biden (eventually) going to win?

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 4, 2020:

There is no stealing, but it is looking more and more like Biden has won. The only downside to the Biden win is we will not longer have Dumpsterfire Donnie to bash and the Pinata might end up not needed any longer.

I can forgive people for being stupid I can't forgive them for WANTING to be stupid.

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 4, 2020:

One of my daughters has a very close friend who may have voted for Trump. With the pandemic she has not been social distancing and taking lots of risks, and she has a 6 month old baby. She is annoyed with my daughter for not visiting more often. The friend works in a bar. So that might have been the straw that breaks that friendship apart.

CBS shows Biden favored to win Maine, Nevada, and Arizona.

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 4, 2020:

HippieChick58 comments on Nov 1, 2020:

I also have a robotic vacuum, and it has a name. It is Roscoe. I thought about Rosie, the maid from the cartoon The Jetson's. But I wanted male, so it became Roscoe. No, Roscoe is not a pet, but the cats do play with it, or sabotage it if you will. They drop toys in front of it so it will suck them up and stop. Or the younger kitty will lie in Roscoe's path and he will bump her and reverse direction. And she will get up and do it again. Since I have been WFH Roscoe runs earlier in the day, and generally the kitties are sleeping or keeping me company, so there haven't been as many disruptions to the routine. I put a block in the doorway to the room I'm working in so Roscoe can't come in but the kitties can still get out. I only let Roscoe in that room on the weekends. I spend too much time on phone calls to have Roscoe running that close to me.

Those are compliments that I want to hear. Show me you're listening to me and that I challenge you.
