We live in interesting times…
It was the first time the Situation Room needed a blacklight and a bouncer.
The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

It’s like he saw into my heart.
What I love most about writing is that it isn't publishing.

Me: "Yes, I'm looking for a book about...“
Librarian: "Clairvoyance?"
Me: "No..."
Librarian: "That'll work one day."

For #Readers: The Rory Gilmore Reading Challenge is pretty darn great. It has the 339 books (novels, nonfiction, plays, poetry) that Rory of the The Gilmore Girls* is shown reading. I'm only at 23% so I need to get to steppin'.

* I've haven't seen an episode...yet.

Just a slight addition to this: Jonathan Groff is insanely good in everything.
As "No Kings Day" draws to a successful close, a reminder of the delirious, mad real king, George III, America said "no" to before it said "no" to the delirious, mad wannabe king today, Donald Trump. (Jonathan Groff is insanely good in this.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5JA...

Yeah, this is why I don’t do manger scenes anymore.

I’ve spent my life working in libraries and this is true. Let me know if you want a suggestion for what to request…
HOT LIBRARY INTEL: you can ask your library to purchase specific titles for their collection, usually right through the library's website.

Librarians can't know every single new title, nor can they mind-read what their patrons might want to check out. Give it a shot!

Amen to that.
Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.
