Reading Jennifer Pahlka’s Recoding America has been transformational for me this year.

I chose five. Technically, the Ella/Verve retrospective was reissued when I was in middle school, but since rules are meaningless anyways
Honestly, all five of them should just be OK Computer 🤣

Six books left to finish this year’s 52 Book Club challenge; sharing Sharon McMahon’s debut with my middle-schooler has been the highlight of my fall, and I’m about to tackle my first ever @stephenking.bsky.social book (I scare really really really easily, y’all)

I’m knitting and drinking kombucha at my afternoon meeting.
A person at the next table over is crocheting and drinking kombucha.
