my friend @cswift13.bsky.social calls it "only birders in the building" and I can't think of it as anything else now

One of my group chats is currently filled with intentionally horrible covers we've all created for @writingroslyn.bsky.social's new book & honestly I'm still stuck on the tag line "from that lady who brought you a 20-year obsession with Miranda Priestly"

Quick timeline cleanse: Lady Catelyn Stark is here to tell you that it’s gonna be okay (though it would be okay a whole lot sooner if she was in charge of everything, not just her current territory).

Why is there a constant sound of elderly women's voices muttering in an unidentifiable language that's clearly audible in every room of our casino no matter how loud the other noises in the room are? It's quite simple: Renovations.
