Saw an agent that made it a point to say how they wanted to represent clean literature, the kind you could share with your mother, and I think the only time I realized more quickly I was not the right fit was when I read the Hallmark Channel's call for pitches for their movies.

This reminded me of one of the most horrifying things I’ve ever seen: a model of a child’s skull before they’ve lost their baby teeth. The adult teeth are just chilling on top of the baby teeth in a second row and I’m seriously about to lose my appetite remembering it.

This was the same issue with craft beer.
🖊️ The wine people get grapes with extremely classy sounding varietal names, and weed enjoyers are at the mercy of men who were raised by Beavis and Butthead and decided that their humour didn't need to evolve beyond that point. Life's weird.

The Virginia Supreme Court has ruled that the state can put a redistricting plan on the ballot this spring that could add as many as four more Democratic seats in Congress.

The referendum will take place on April 21.
