Saw someone upbraiding someone else for having a hobby while the world is on fire, and, my friends:
The world is ever on fire, this is today's conflagration;
If you don't find time for rest and joy the fire will consume you;
Don't let people shame you for being an entire human.
Hobbies help with rage mitigation.
If you can't find a politician to punch, it's time to tackle that craft room you've been telling yourself you'll clean since COVID..... I'm also calling myself out here a little bit (A LOT).
Cross stitch gives you something to stab 1000x that won't send you to jail.
I do embroidery so others do not die. I am a teacher. I cross stitch so only the fabric gets stabbed. With a needle of course.
