If you were too little to remember 9/11 or you werenā€™t even born yet, you need to know something:
late 90s/very early 2000s commercial compilations on YouTube are like a time capsule from the pre-9/11 days, especially something like this one from January 2001:
youtube
I was 14 at this time and I remember a lot of these.
Take note of diet culture and landlines and the computers and even the ā€œhanging chadā€ jokes. Also the corniness and light-heartedness.
Take note of how unsuspecting we were.
Now look at commercials from later that year, after 9/11:
Take note of how somber and traumatized everyone is, yet thereā€™s intense patriotism. It was America the Beautiful 24/7 there for a while.
Yet life goes on and ads donā€™t stop for long.
But for a time channels that didnā€™t show the news went off air basically. And there was lot of this on most every channel:

Iā€™ve been dying cotton with plant based material recently and I actually use a little camp stove outside! Pretty fun!
To me the smelliest stuff is metals like when I use iron or copper water.
Or onion skin. But honestly boiling up flowers and leaves isnā€™t bad so far, just like a potpourri scent.

Safety instructions for dyeing wool at home
Here are a few safety recommendations if you dye wool with plant-based dyes at home in your kitchen.
Put away food and clear ample space for working.
You should have seperate utensils for dyeing such as at least one big pot, a ladle, colander, cooking thermometer etc. I recommend second hand shops to get cheap equipment.
Enamel pots are ideal because they do not react with the chemicals you put inside.
Alum is a non-toxic mordant but still be careful when using it. Donā€™t ingest it and donā€™t get it in your eyes. Same goes for all other chemicals you use.
Wear gloves and an old apron. Again, the plants I use are mostly non-toxic but walnut peels can dye your hands and clothes brown, alum water may dry your skin out etc.
When you dye wool inside, always open a window and make sure there is good ventilation. Some plants such as tansy set free essential oils when you cook them that can irritiate your eyes andā€¦ wellā€¦ they stinkā€¦ ;D

Last nightā€¦
ā€¦I dreamt I went shopping with Kim k and she bought 3 teardrop shaped white beads for $98.
I said ā€œwow that could buy my family groceries for most of a week.ā€
She said ā€œitā€™s a really good deal for these tearsā€
