Alright I’m dressed like a hallmark hero and I’m in a small town. Where’s my jaded big city lawyer?

"This is my baby brother" and the brother is like a full foot taller is my favorite thing.

Extremely minor thing, but I miss seeing Tim Walz in the news.

It's been a long time since a book left me laying on the floor after reading it, but The Bridge Kingdom series is sure getting the job done. 💙📚

First bathroom: Okay, that's not it.

Second bathroom: A little weird, but so?

Third bathroom: OOOOOOOOOOH WTF?

I was reminded me of the time I walked in on my dad watching Star Trek, saw the outfits, and had to ask "time travel or holodeck?" because there's SO MUCH OF BOTH

Nothing like our weekly Teams meeting at work to remind me that boomer men are the BIGGEST GOSSIPS IN THE WORLD.

Cleaning my stupid dishes so I can cook my stupid food so I don't have to spend my stupid money on takeout

*I swirl a brandy snifter while reading the Silmarillion*“Oh, you wanted your fantasy more realistic? Enjoy everyone having the same name.” *holds up book* “oh this? Yeah, Tolkien made it canon that since elves were immortal, only one would have any given name. Hope you’re enjoying the realism!”

I'm so mad at this book I'm reading because I don't like the worldbuilding but somehow it has a death grip on me anyway. I gotta know what happens.

Sure, fantasy doesn't have to be historically accurate, but the amount of modern things in this one just...makes my brain itchy.

Not to be weird, but I've seen a bunch of posts about ADHD cooking lately and wanted to remind people that I—a single parent with ADHD and also some chronic illness stuff—wrote a book called Cooking is Terrible and it's literally just ADHD meals. Amz link, but available most places, also libraries!

I know being a grammar and spelling pedant is classist and shitty but I still want to beg the denizens of Facebook gardening groups (and possibly autocorrect in all its forms) to understand that “perennial” and “perineal” are two very different words.

"Expand public transit and make it free? And who's gonna pay for that?"

Me you fucking goofy bastard. I pay taxes. give me healthcare instead of buying another 700,000 tear gas canisters for the police to spray on my friends.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

There are so many strange choices in the first two chapters of Fourth Wing that it's hard to pick one. readingwithavengeance.com/2024/06/11/f...

It's still an in progress little blob, but I've discovered that if I try to wait until things are all the way done I'll just never get back to it. Thanks, ADHD.
