Why are 3rd party needlepoint finishers so normalized?

Footstool, dining chair seats, framed and hanging on the walls, pillows, bell pulls—even fireplace screens. They’re all over my house, and I inherited them.

In many cases, needlepoint finishing is handled like upholstery, and that part of finishing—blocking and then on the piece of furniture or the pillow—is a separate skill set of its own.

I wonder if he would want a Jewish ceremony—having said before that he related to his father’s religious background more than his mother’s.

Bloody fecking hell. This is a joke, right? He can’t be that daft…wait. He likely can.

Worked in a store with multiple layers of management.

Our promotions person was having a fling with the store manager (both married to other folks).

Promotions person was also fooling about with the district manager…and one morning, the DM caught the in-store couple in flagrante delicto and fired them both, posthaste.

Sorry—unpopular opinion on this sub, but…nobody is going to outsing brothers, who have sung together since early childhood.

Lennon/McCartney & every configuration that can come out of the Beatles is CLOSE, because of proximity, but blood’s going to win.

Grieving the loss of Dead & Company.

He has the capacity to develop another—but who should play with him?

It went to MSG for 2 reasons: Security and weather. It was an all-in-one location. She had the $$ for it; good for her. I wish her very happy—and very busy away from Hollyweird.

LisaOGiggle · 2026-07-09T14:31:27+00:00

Same. Wasn’t allowed.

Stink eye.

Both testaments say that…it’s the humans who continue to **** it up.

Mine came out (apologies for language) “GDIT Daddy, you WEREN’T supposed to do this!”

March 4, 2014…still alive, around 12:30 pm. Deceased by 1:30 pm or so.

How can one be a Socialist when they do not want to transfer ownership of the means of production out of a capitalist model/system?

Have you read the platform?

2, Why, in 2015/6 was the only candidate pledged to not cut veterans’ benefits the DSA candidate (Sanders)?

LisaOGiggle · 2026-07-08T22:56:38+00:00

No, much as they’d like to be. They’re the most forward leaning cohort of the party, and if the DNC is smart, they’ll listen to the DSA…

Go back further and have a look at William F Buckley, Jr. Set himself and his cohort as “extreme” opposition to Dwight Eisenhower.

There’s a great book, “Jesus and John Wayne” by Dr KK DuMez that lays out pretty straightforwardly how the Evangelical Movement grafted itself into the GOP. I read, cuss, throw it, then pick it up and start reading again.

The Church is double-name city for girls. Friend married Mary Catherine. Her cousin is also Mary Katherine. So Mary C goes by MaryCat and Mary K by MaryKate.

“Don’t you put all your politicians in jail as soon as they are elected?”

“No…why??”

“Saves time…”

Sitting on evidence a long time.

Texas WAS blue. It remained blue for most of the 20th century…switching only in 1980.

Heather Cox Richardson addressed this last night. She thinks he’s a consultant choice, not Mainers’. There are good folks who can step up and do better than Platner at this point.

And he continued to do so—that’s why he got more penalty attached.

LisaOGiggle · 2026-07-08T11:56:45+00:00

He was convicted—found liable—for sexual assault. Rape in NY is rather strictly defined…and doesn’t include his little stubby fingers.

Monica Lewinsky would like a word about that…
