I mostly read romance and horror bc if someone’s guts aren’t being somehow rearranged then I’m really not interested.
At the intersection of “shower will make my muscles feel better” and “shower will make my skin feel worse”

Oh, HELL yeah
My very first book under contract with Simon & Schuster. Comes out in less than two months. It’s very gay and filled with a ton of rage/grief/horror. My agent refers to this book as “A LITTLE LIFE written by the love child of David Cronenberg and Clive Barker.” 🖤

Generalize your skeets. What’s your most typical, average skeet?

My dog is the best dog in the whole world! My dog is evil incarnate! *cries over the concept of geologic time.* Oh boy I love gin. Surely this little craft will fix me. Look at how good I am at having a healthy body! I love my dog.
Generalize your skeets. What's your most typical, most average skeet?

Anna Akhmatova was bisexual and I will prove it. Look at my stress knitting. Oh boy, more scholarly incompetence. In this incredibly trying time can I offer you anarchism and compassion. Surely this meme will cure my anxiety.

Read my novels. Check out my podcast. Did you know my hometown was founded by a legendary disaster bisexual? I am about to acquire enormous breast implants.

Coleslaw wearing a tiny sombrero (against her will) and Coleslaw wearing a pair of duck-feet baby booties (also against her will).

For reasons.

Coleslaw just VERY INTENSELY watched a woman get brained with an ashtray on the tv and then immediately looked away once the scene changed, what is wrong with my daughter

Snow day tomorrow, you know what that means (weeknight rum and diet coke + 10mg gummy)

This morning I dropped Coleslaw’s green treat getting it out of the bag and she raced to go pick it up, brought it back to the rug, dropped it, and looked at me confusedly like “tricks now?”

Today’s last-minute therapy lore drop was the entire saga of being tragically in love with my straight friend all through college, ultimately resulting in the fracturing the friend group and my getting Caitlin in the divorce.
