I dropped $60 on the Pens-Wild game, $120 on the Avs-Wild game, and I'm considering spending $150 a Rangers ticket when I'm on my work trip.
Meanwhile I just got a Chicago NHL ticket for $33. What a joke of a team 🥴

Baristas frequently work shifts without enough labor to keep up with customers, & without consistent hours + scheduling, we often cannot afford rent or groceries.

This is a good action item because it:
1. Seeks info
2. Keeps DOGE busy if it complies
3. Is a basis for legal action if it doesn’t

my mama cat Mona is very quiet and skittish (even with me) and she hid behind the dishwasher for the sitter while I was gone, but she's been chatty and clingy since I got home 🥺

I've been reading Harlequins for 25 years - I'm a trope junkie. The problem with genre publishing right now (IMHO) is authors and publishers thinking trope is all they need - never mind the pesky details like character development, compelling conflict and an actual plot.
what if tropes, but too much?
(in my latest for @reactorsff.bsky.social, I wrote about how romantasy publishers are feeding me so many tropes I feel like Bruce Bogtrotter with the chocolate cake.)

you ever think about how the starbucks CEO made $800k a day last year and commutes to work on a private jet, but said it was a necessity to lay off 1000+ corporate workers and continue understaffing stores?
