Finished The Things Gods Break today and loved it

Great, interesting sequel to The Games Gods Play

I couldn't put this down

The wait for book 3 begins

Ugh I'm going to be thinking about this for a while and I have so many theories

The Halloween Moon was a fun, spoopy, cute, quick MG book, perfect for October!

Good messages, good characters, fun adventurous plot, and all the Halloween you could want!

RFK: "children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism"

Which is why almost all amab jews are autistic, and why most afab jews aren't

(I say sarcastically, in case you somehow thought I was being serious)
October 9, 2025 at 6:46 PM
Jews, who circumcise all amab babies*, don't have a higher autism rate than other cultures

Not that his "circumcision leads to autism cuz tylenol" theory has any merit, but this claim is very proveably false 🙄

*there's a growing movement in Jewish communities that are moving away from circumcision

As the leaves change and start to fall, be careful jumping into piles of leaves or tossing them in the air over your head. Ticks love fallen leaves. 🍁🍂🍃

This isn't (just) about the files. These moves further both his authoritarian takeover and Project 2025, with the added bonus distracting. Saying every move they make is "just an attempt to distract from the files" is a gross underestimation of them, their goals, and their moves

Just finished both The Stardust Thief and sequel The Ashfire King

This series is quite the adventure. SO MUCH happens! It's truly a journey, in the best of ways

Great characters, great world building, great story

Cannot wait for book 3

It's ABSURD that most orthopedic drs don't know lyme

An illness FAMOUS FOR AFFECTING JOINTS

Lyme makes you & your dr think you need a knee replacement, but lyme treatment makes those symptoms vanish entirely. No surgery needed

And most orthos don't know lyme at all?!

I have an injured knee & ankle. Trying to make an appt w/ an ortho

Don't have health insurance

"Appointments w/o insurance are $410, but if the clinic happens to reside in a hospital, it's an additional $1,500"

EXCUSE ME?!

Enjoy extra proof that the #USHealthcare system is evil

Just #ChronicIllnessThings - getting sick of seeing doctors

Not wanting to go see any doctor for any new reason

Getting injured & not wanting to see a doctor because your whole life is already doctors & you're just sick of it

It may be an older series, but I just finished The Firebird Trilogy (A Thousand Pieces Of You) for the first time and I absolutely loved it

It's a very fun, exciting, YA, multiverse traveling adventure

I'm going to miss these characters and this world so much

Time for the 2 part Xena series finale

I'm not ready

The modern day reporter episode Of xena (S6 E13) was amazing

Having him there made zero sense and I didn't care 😂

@quartermasterc.bsky.social and I brought home two Maine Coon kittens today!

A black smoke boy named Kor (the Dahar Master 🖖🏻)

And an orange cream boy named Calzone Kestis (he's polydactyl!)

We love them so much already

The way Kevin Smith delivered this line was amazing

In fact, his acting this whole episode (S6E1 Coming Home) was truly spectacular

He was a fantastic choice for Ares. He never let a scene down

The episode of #Xena I'm currently watching (Kindred Spirits, S5 E17) feels like it was written by men

These women feel so flat, one dimensional, and stereotypical

It's not good writing

And yes, I do know that it WAS written by men, but that doesnt mean it has to FEEL like it. And it does 😬

1) I didn't know Selma Blair was ever in Xena!

2) haha omg Karl Urban again? This is, what, his 4th character? I'm not mad about it but LOL

3) that episode was...well it was

Finished The Long Way To A Small, Angry Planet & it was fantastic

Cozy, wholesome, creative, fun. Some cool af alien species & amazing world building

What's unique about this book is that, while there IS a plot, the plot is kind of the background. It's more about the characters
