SECOND CHANCE ROMANCE is warm, cozy, & out today. I hope you love it! 💗

The story: A cranky baker's erroneous obituary brings the woman who got away back into his life--& now he needs to convince her to stay.
The heat level: steamy!
The baked goods: plentiful!

At some point, I wonder when this becomes a fatal quality-of-use issue for the platform.

Maybe never. But a lot of us are here because we disliked the earlier version of this on X. And a lot of us have cut back on Facebook use because it’s swamped real-life connections with ads and rage bait.
13k comments on one tweet is a massive payout. All of the tweets follow a certain formula, so the content is likely automated using AI technology (e.g., AI generated images and text). Basically running it as a money printing machine. But for those in the US, it translates to low simmering rage.

We gave out candy and a couple of kid-appropriate comic books this year and the comics were a big hit!

My favorites were a girl who asked if she could have both books (of course!) and a little Spider-Man who said “I heard you had comics” as soon as I opened the door.

i like that we know the ICE fitness standards now because now we all know exactly how fast we need to be able to run to be just slightly faster than any given ICE agent. a useable training goal

I suspect that this ballroom will in fact be used as Mar-a-Lago North—an exclusive club where the ultra wealthy can pay massive fees for access to the President. It’s all going into Trump’s pocket somehow.

He’s already done a soft launch of the concept with the Rose Garden club.

Just for giggles, I wrote my MAGA congressman asking him to explain why he's fighting the ACA subsidies that make healthcare possible for me. Instead of his usual Trumpy bullshit, his response was "I'm hearing a lot of this, I'll get back to you." Hmmm. Maybe they are getting worried?

They are asking for $2300/month for a plan that has a deductible over $6000!!!!

For those who do not understand American healthcare (hahaha cry) you have to pay $27,600 per year and then on top of that you have to pay over $6000 out of pocket before it actually covers stuff.
Just receieved this today from Florida Blue. This is for a Bronze plan. Our monthly premiums are going from $333 (2025) to $2300 in 2026.

the thing about a lot of the wine moms who mobilized for the Women's March a decade ago is that they stayed mobilized all that time! my aunt's local Women's March Facebook group became an ongoing grassroots organizing effort to elect local pro-choice women Dems in her small North Carolina town
every smug internet communist tweet about showing up to a No Kings protest with an abolish ICE shirt to scare the libs is getting completely mogged by the real-life winemoms showing up with slogans like "ICE will melt in hell"

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

YES! like, do you want us to fight using every fucking tool we can put our hands on or not??

If we need to learn one thing from the damn GOP, it is their pathological willingness to go "well that didn't work, who has an even weirder idea let's fuckin go"
Look I get that it's not sexy that the Florida facility was closed via an environmental lawsuit but Al Capone got taken down by tax evasion. Not everything is sexy!

Decided to go all in on spooky season-themed reading this year. So far, I’ve read Ghostland, The Hitchcock Hotel, and the hilarious and occasionally terrifying ZomRomCom by @oliviawrites.bsky.social (yes, the cover is glow-in-the-dark!).

Next up, a whole bunch of books about witches! 😁

I would rather live in a world where I don’t have to know about far-right internet nonsense, but since understanding the current situation of our country requires knowing who Nick Fuentes and “Groypers” are, here’s a handy cartoon:

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 28, the number is 100%.

Happy Labor Day.
