TIFU by reporting myself for phishing
You read that right. I sent an outreach email at work on behalf of my team. When one of the bcc recipients replied to me, I accidentally marked it as a phishing attempt. Well, I guess I marked the whole mail chain as a phishing attempt, because my company's IT department emailed me shortly after I reported the message to confirm my error: "You marked this as phishing, but it appears that you are the sender and the recipient." (It was an outreach with blind-copied recipients, so I was main recipient on the email.)
I laughed out loud at my monitor and facepalmed. Of course, I reported myself. Thankfully, my company's IT office has a pretty good sense of humor and replied, "No problem. That's what we figured."
That's right, IT. Gotta keep y'all on your toes.
TLDR; I reported my own outreach email as a phishing attempt to my work's IT department and had to confirm that I reported myself by accident.

Maybe the team should pray to the Deutchebahn spirits before getting on a German train again
This came up in my feed, and I immediately thought of Sam and co. getting Deutschebahned. 💀😂

Tips for A Stitch Amigurumi Kit Pattern without Enough Yarn
My Question: Hi, has anyone done one of these Stitch amigurumi kits and have advice? I don't want to frog everything, but I also want to give a friend a weirdly-shaped, crappy amigurumi Stitch plush.
Context: I am helping a family friend make a Stitch amigurumi for her great granddaughter and ran into an issue with the pattern and amount of yarn given. I followed the pattern as written, but I ran out of the light blue yarn for Stitch's chin and belly (photo 1). After looking at the box for reference (photo 2), the belly and general body seem much smaller than the pattern is instructing.
Now, I am also wondering if the head is too big, as I am running low on the berry blue yarn that is used for most of the plush. This is the first time I have been asked to crochet something for someone and am putting pressure on myself to do it well, too.

Transit Sing-Along Attempt
I get trying to bring folks together through song, but people are going to and from work, are going through stuff, and just want to be left alone on public transit.
