A co-worker just took this pic of a rainbow over my bike and said it must be Elton saying hello. I’m dedicating this to all you kind people who acknowledged my grief and shared yours. ❤️‍🩹

I won’t have time to do this tomorrow, on the actual two year deathaversary, so here is a big ol’ awoo for my sweet boy Elton. He was the best guy. I miss him.

‘Death remains my intimate shadow partner. It has been with me since birth, always hovering close by. I understand one day we will finally waltz together into the ether. I hope when that time comes, I die with the satisfaction of a life well-lived, unapologetic, joyful, & full of love.’ —Alice Wong

Well, I guess I’m the kind of nerd who sits down on November 1st with the lil USPS magazine to pick out this year’s xmas stamps.

I’m so grateful to be in a union ✊

why does "we must go back" always mean racism and not quaaludes

We gotta normalize responding to bullshit with "dude who fucking cares"

A pox on people who fill Little Free Libraries to the brim with ancient textbooks and magazines and scrap paper. That shit ain’t right.

I listen to an audio of Dracula every year and am never not delighted by Quincy Morris, the Texan, saying when they’re getting ready to hunt Drac, “I have brought some Winchesters…” Of course you have, Mr. Morris 🤠

If Tim Horton tries to enter the United States he will be DETAINED & DEPORTED. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

City of the Living Dead (it was titled Gates of Hell on the VHS copy I saw) in like 5th grade at a classmate’s Halloween party. It fucked me up for yearsssss. Saw it again recently on Kanopy & my husband was like, “you were a kid when you first watched this?!?!”

You can plant any two actual Hallmark Christmas movies into Troy McClure voice and it works perfectly. “Hi, I’m Troy McClure, you might remember me from such Christmas classics as ‘The Nine Kittens of Christmas’ and ‘Catch Me If You Claus.’”

I get paid 7 figures a year to come up with this shit. Some stuff I have cooking up for you to look forward to: Amazon Prime changing to Amazon Plus. Paramount Plus changing to Paramount Now. HBO Max changing to just HBO. I fucking hate all of you and I will never stop.

My husband went camping w/ Pippa for two nights and I’m out of sorts. Whomst even am I without a dog to walk at 7:15am and again at 5:15pm?!?

I gave a barista, a young woman, my name for my order, and she said, "My mom's name is Stephanie." And I said, "That means she was born in the 70s/80s. Stephanie is a dying name. You don't know any baby Stephanies, do you? DO YOU?" And the barista said, "I need to help the next customer, so...."

As a historian, I can certify that we are in the bad times. But bad times eventually end. In the meantime: • Figure out a small way to help someone • Figure out a small way to fight back • Figure out a small place to find joy • Figure out a small way to grow and thrive And do it often.
