the post-game show asked Becky Sauerbrunn to do the Becky Eyes when a teammate messed up in a sequence

I would just go ahead and die on the spot if I was on the receiving end of this stare

I hate that you can't actually talk to a real person about a problem with their service anymore. I recently got alerted that someone was trying to get into my Instagram account. They told me to change my password, which I did. Then I re-log into my account and it tells me to change my password

Reading should be a joy and not a chore. If you're not in the mood or can't find just the right book, it's okay to take a break. I've never been a constant reader. We all have our own unique relationship with books. And, books are always there when you're ready for them.

People with homes are so rarely cold at night that I just don’t think homes are necessary anymore.

I just finished Welcome to the Hyunam-Dong Bookshop. Every once in a while you read a book at the right time and it speaks to your soul. I highly recommend this one and depending on what I read in the next few weeks, this may be my favorite book I read this year. 💙📚

I am currently reading Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop by Hwang Bo-reum and it reminded me that bookshops used to have comfy chairs in their stores where you could sit down and read a chapter or two of a book to test it out. Capitalism ruined that. 💙📚

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

Why read books? Because reading opens minds & hearts. It helps us imagine different lives and different worlds; it can help us build a better world. So please keep reading books with kids, and encouraging them to read. There is nothing more important. #literacy #books #reading
