why are books from the 30s and 40s always SO out of pocket 😭

we heard the steward call the last dinner seating, and ted told me that the tour picked up the tab for all our meals on all the trains, but any liquor we ordered was strictly dutch treat.

i hadn't known what arrangements he'd made, so i'd brought along some tunafish sandwiches with mayonnaise dressing, and two bottles of coke, in my big pocketbook. i got them out, unwrapped the waxed paper from the sandwiches, and broke them into chunks to share.

eileen took one, and with a theatrical flourish said, "mmm, hors d'oeuvres."

ivy, however, squeezed one into a ball in her fist, wedged it into her mouth, and mumbled, "mmm. horse's ovaries."

I hate it when I go to a follow-up doctor's appointment that they scheduled and told me to come to and then they ask me what my appointment is for. Why are you asking me you are the doctor 😭

The following is a statement from the WGA on ABC’s decision to pull ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’

WGA Statement on ABC's Decision to Pull ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’
The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice.
As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree.
Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich.
Silencing us impoverishes the whole world.
The WGA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

A preview of my piece for @monkeywrenchzine.bsky.social !!!!

Ford looked healthier than he’d last seen him. Gone were the dark bags under his eyes and the lanky form that came from surviving on nothing but coffee and occasionally fast food; he looked good now, great even, with a sturdy, fit figure and broad shoulders that nicely filled out his button-up shirt and trench coat. He was just as tall as Fiddleford remembered, easily towering over-

Over the person next to him. Fiddleford squinted. There was a man standing next to his dear old friend, short and skinny with wild and unruly hair. And the eyes… One yellow and one solid white eye glared at him with a force that was unnatural, even more so when coming from a complete stranger.

Ford hadn’t mentioned this in his letter.
