Spinning some merino on my new Mingo&Asho glasspin.
I taught myself to spin supported earlier this year. I found fleegle style spinning to be the most comfortable on my support spindles as its a kind of unsupported style which accommodates short or long draw.
Do you like watching my spinning videos? Should I do more of my spins?

Hi! I just started randomly watching the movie Spinster (because I finished writing an essay and couldn’t fall asleep) which interested me both because of the lead actress and the title. And I just had to let out some initial thoughts.
I’ve only seen the beginning scene but the stakes are high because it could very well become my new favourite movie of all time or be the worst most painful thing ever.
As it opened with this terror (cw aphobia)

Immediately followed by the hopefully response of

Don’t spoil anything (but also kindly warn me now if this will be a dumb “cynical woman learns about the power of love” type of story.)

The "Ascended" Spidersonas
Tumblr media
For the third volume of Spider-Verse comics that came out in 2019, the concept of the "Spidersona" that was popularized by the release of the animated film Into the Spider-Verse was acknowledged by way of integrating three different Spidersonas each issue into the comic multiverse through short character profiles at the end of each issue. The former half of these 18 characters would even show up in the final issue of the run in person, with Sun-Spider getting some particularly special treatment afterwards.
Spidersona hero names are bolded and real names (if avaliable) are in parentheses.
Issue 1

Spinster of Earth-93191: Made by Antonio Demico of France with a design inspired by both the French Revolution and the original Madame Web, the Spinster can generate webs from her prehensile hair which she can then use to spy on conversation like a

I fell into a pattern of simply filling up spindles over the last few months. So here’s the 100s of meters of thread that needs to be de-spindled, plyed, & finished.

Everyone talks about turning 30 and becoming an “old hag” and a “spinster” (derogatory) but what about being an old hag and a spinster in the cool mysterious witchy independent goth babe way, huh, what about that?
Be the freaky spinster that everyone talks about because she lives all alone at the edge of town with her cats and haunts the forests at night in her sweeping black gown and cloak and grows poisonous herbs in her garden bc she’s probably a witch and is also probably in a Boston marriage with the quirky “old maid” librarian
Like, that’s kind of hot and aspirational!
I for one can’t wait to become an old hag and terrify the menfolk with my unmaidenly ways.
Also please excuse me while I go write a Neo-Victorian gothic novel about lesbian spinsters ✌️

“Here begins the chapters of the treatise… composed for the honour and glory of Ladies” Charming, bizarre, and even occasionally useful, this text, originally published in Old French c. 1480, is a fascinating look into a late medieval mindset and a specifically feminine one at that. The storyline is that all these secrets about controlling husbands, curing various ills, and generally making life run smoothly, are being shared in a circle of women spinning with distaffs and spindles. Instead of searching for some primordial pristine neopagan women’s magic (and thus unconsciously transferring your Protestant morality to your search for goddess power) it’s more fun and genuinely surprising to look at the sources we’ve actually got left from ages past. They’re really raunchy to be honest. 🤣 Obvious connections here to my work in Amor Fati, especially the appended bits about the elements and humoral theory (though those ideas are woven throughout) This is one of the texts I looked at to connect with the late medieval worldview when I wrote the game. #books #spinster #charms #history #medievalist (at Bruges, Belgium) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqavInYL_9U/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
