Retired law librarian, Bay Area liberal, overly invested in reality TV shows.

I post about TV, my pets, & politics a lot.

Today feels like a good day to spend curled up on the couch with the dog and a trashy book.

I have to finish my non-trashy book first, but I can do that.

My across the street neighbor put up their outside Christmas lights today.
They did a nice job, as always, but I am SO not ready.
I guess I need to be though

I finished the Song of Achilles and loved it. Would recommend!

After a cooking show break, I started The Wife, the Maid, and the Mistress--a fictionalized take on a 1930s true crime story, and really liking it so far. Think I might also recommend.

Repost with an iconic fictional band.

I'm pretty sure this is more obscure than iconic, but it holds a special place in my heart

I just started reading The Song of Achilles, which is described in part as "a scholar's homage to the Iliad"

I have never read the Iliad, and I am never going to. I'm enjoying the Song as an independent story though, at least so far.

Seriously.

I don't shop at Target anymore, but blanket rule with me--get the fuck away from me, especially if you are being forced to put on a creepy ass smile
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

I wish I could pretend I don't have much better to do this weekend, but it is what it is, and at least I can listen while I pretend to do other stuff.

I wanted to textwatch something with a friend at 5:00 but I lay down for a quick nap without setting an alarm since it was hours away, & then woke up at 5:08, and I am still irrational levels of annoyed at myself. And the dog, and the cat, and the table.

Hopefully it's time for bed soon

I’m turning CNN tf off cuz they are talking about how Mamdani’s speech was inflammatory. Well duh! We are sick of playing nice. We are sick of placating people that are standing by while our rights, jobs and foods are being stripped away. I’m glad he was fired up! The Democrats need to take notes
