I turned 32 and had a second Sweet 16! I embraced my MySpace days w/ heavy eyeliner, chokers, and neon colors for days.

Evidence for what appears to be the first-ever seen direct-collapse black hole (a super-massive black hole, at that) has been observed at the juncture of two colliding galaxies.

It’s so funny to me how some Star Trek fans can be so racist. Like…have you WATCHED the show?! 🖖🏼

Am I the only one who enjoyed Jurassic World: Rebirth?! It was fun! I wish we had a little more action or suspense in a few places but it honestly was enjoyable. 🫣🦖🦕

My mother has just informed me that she has discovered Harry Potter fan fiction (and loves it!) and I don’t know what to do with this information.

And that’s a wrap on The Revolutionists at Starkville Community Theatre. Playing Marie Antoinette was such a dream! I loved her sass, her charm, and (most importantly) her shiny shoes. Hundreds of rhinestones brought these heels to life and I will find every excuse to wear them. 👠✨💎

A novel from the perspective of a velociraptor? Yes please. Bonus points for the shiny 90s cover. 🦖
Someone holding a novel in their hand. The cover is black with a multicolor lenticular photo of a velociraptor. In large capital red text at the bottom it reads “Raptor Red”. Small text underneath that reads “Robert T. Bakker”. 💙📚🪐

Let me know when 1770s hair is back in style. Marie Antoinette had ships in her wigs—mine has a faux mourning dove who demands snacks and top billing.

ChatGPT roasted me and said I’m “caught somewhere between a ‘90s field trip, a Scooby-Doo mystery, and an alien abduction. Hoodie tied like you’re ready to outrun both monsters and your responsibilities. The final boss of a Hot Topic clearance rack and honestly? You’re crushing it.” 🦖👽🤘🏼

Honored to play Marie Antoinette in a few weeks! 👑 Our community theatre is doing The Revolutionists by Lauren Gunderson. 🎭 The world feels a bit scary right now — maybe it’s time for another revolution (with some crude humor). 😎
A black and white clipper portrait of a woman (presumably Marie Antoinette) wearing sunglasses that have pink and orange flames in them. She is wearing extravagant jewelry. Everything is black and white except the flames, her red lipstick, and the pinkish orange background.

I’ve been on a scifi kick lately but it’s time to switch gears! Sasha Sagan’s “For Creatures Such As We” has been on my TBR for (literally) years. It’s always recommended to new witches who are unsure of their path or are secular, like me. One chapter in and already feel connected to it. 💡📚🔮
A hand holding a Kindle with a monochromatic book cover shown. The words For Creatures Such As We are in large font in the middle with Sasha Sagan written in large font at the top. “Rituals for finding meaning in our unlikely world” is the text shown at the bottom.

Directing Murder on the Orient Express as a first-time director has been an adventure! I am so proud of my cast, my crew, and, honestly, myself. It’s a wonderful show with so many talented people. So so so happy! 🤗🎭🔪
A scene from the stage play A Murder on the Orient Express performed at Starkville Community Theatre. Eleven actors are onstage surrounding a supposed dead body. They are all shocked and/or mid-scream.

I finished the 🦾 Murderbot Diaries, and now I don’t know what to do with myself. What similar series should I read next?

My mom just finished her diy bookshelf and I’ve never been more jealous of anything in my life. Dad made the arched front while mom painted & added her cute decor - including the skulls on the columns. 💀 Y’all I can’t. 🎨🔨

So excited to be a part of this show! I swear I will do Marie Antoinette justice. 🎭👑
A green script with the words “The Revolutionists, a comedy, a quartet, a revolutionary dream fugue, a true story by Lauren Gunderson” on the front. The words “first read through!” Are across the screen.

Applied for a passport on Feb 25 and it was issued on Mar 7. I know I paid for expedited, but this is ridiculous! (In a good way…) ✈️🗺️🪪

I don’t have enough time in the day to do the things I need to do. The past few weeks have been a struggle, and I need time to slow down.

Can I get a refund on the whole adulting thing?
