Unpopular opinion: I’m actually enjoying yellowjackets season 3. Though I feel the season finale will make it or break it for me.

I would absolutely love to see Shauna killed off fr

Andrea was right, as usual, I Who Have Never Known Men by Jacqueline Harpman is fantastic!

For the lit professors out there - I highly encourage you to check it out. This would make a great addition to a syllabus

Is this possibly my favorite book of all time??? Really starting off the year on a high. I read this in one sitting because I could not even think of putting it down. This was remarkable 🤯

Had a very real talk with myself this week that self-care isn't optional. Nor is it easy. I'm so good at ignoring my own needs for a while because [X or Y is important], and that's just a one-way ticket to illness if not careful.

Finding the balance between reading to educate myself, reading for self care, working two healthcare jobs, staying informed, and also trying to tend to my mental health through all the chaos 🤍✨

Reading is political.

Reading has always been political.

Your favorite characters wouldn’t just sit by and watch. They’d get up and burn some shit to the ground.

In 2004, I interviewed for a teaching position. The principal asked me how many kids I had. I answered. He asked if I was planning to have more —said he couldn’t afford to have another teacher out on maternity leave.

This is why women need protections, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

However I always get coffee but tis optional 💗
If you're looking for a place to do some work, the public library is like a coffeeshop where you don't need to buy anything and there's a lot more space and you can stay as long as you like and you don't get any coffee.

This book “From here to the great unknown” by Lisa Marie Presley & Riley Keough is everything. I shed many tears and somehow felt close to both Riley & Lisa. I hope her soul rests easy 💙

If you don’t want to read Edgar Allan Poe together by the fireplace whilst sharing a plate of midnight macarons in an abandoned château in the French countryside during a full moon on a cold winter’s night, then please don’t tell me you’re “down for a good time”.

The marginal details of the David Lynch memorial at the Burbank Bob’s Big Boy are what make it.
