I can't believe that it has almost been a week since we were at the ritual. It was simultaneously amazing and disappointing. I know V is new, and it was HOT AS FUCK but didn't get anywhere near the interaction as we did with Cardi. But the whole yum center chanting "we are legion join us" 🤘 #ghostbc

I just put a new inhaler in my inhaler sock! It kinda feels like it’s birthday or something. As I use it I feel like there are things I could have done differently, and now I want to make another but I don’t want to abandon my original!

A reminder that PBS Kids offers great entertainment written specifically for 4-8yearold social/emotional learning. And Molly of Denali tackles VERY heavy topics such as racism/relocation of native populations in a kid appropriate way. Find a way to support PBS by donating or subbing to the app.

Book cover of My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh. The cover features a classical-style oil painting of a young woman with dark hair in a white empire-waist dress, seated and gazing to the side with a blank expression.

On the right side of the cover, two women walk arm in arm through a shadowy alleyway lined with pipes and machinery, adding a mysterious, steampunk feel. The title is at the top in ornate, white Art Nouveau lettering.

Book cover for Lucky Day by Chuck Tingle. The illustration is a surreal, colorful depiction of a playing card king turned sideways. The king has cartoonish features, green and purple hair, and an “X” for one eye; the other eye is a bleeding eyeball on a stalk. Flames rise behind his head. He points upward with one hand and holds a detached eyeball in the other. Below, purple tentacles emerge from a grinning cartoon mouth. The title “Chuck Tingle” is in large pink letters, with “Lucky Day” in green underneath. Taglines read: “A scream! — The New York Times Best Book 2024” and “All bets are off.” Four-leaf clovers line the bottom.

Just had my birthday a few days ago. I sent my spouse a link of what I wanted for my birthday. He got me all the stuff I wanted to dye my hair and a lego set. I put the legos together and put them in a vase that was a gift from my grandmother.
A clear, cut-crystal vase holds three decorative flowers made from shiny, translucent LEGO pieces with green stems and golden accents, placed on a red metal table, the red paint chipped in places. The vase is surrounded by other potted plants, including a white pot with green painted letters and a yellow, beehive-shaped pot with bee decorations and rope handles. Lush green plants fill the background, creating a vibrant, indoor garden scene.
