Hey did yall know there are websites where you can trade your unwanted gift cards for other gift cards or money? It’s a great way to get a grocery or gas card for a struggling friend or neighbor!

It's day two of the "just got to hold on until the book check hits" sale! (A very publishing vibes sale indeed. LOL) We have 25% off everything in the shop as long as supplies last (I already emergency reprinted the clicky dumpsters!) Visit http://thebrokencirc...

Just got off the phone with another guy who is not happy with the fact that they have to pay a travel charge every time they want a technician out. It's like nobody wants to pay us for what they want us to do. We'll just start working for free that'll make everyone happy right!?!?! 😡

It is astounding how many customers (business owners) think that we operate our repair business like a shady car repair shop. Making up quotes and installing parts that aren't needed and throwing extra money on the bills just because. It's insulting. Being an asshole gets you zero discounts, buddy.

While in the shower earlier, heard unmistakable “cat preparing to puke” noises. Exited the shower, checked the whole apartment (as thoroughly as one can dripping wet in a towel) and found nothing. What are the odds there’s a surprise hairball under a bed or somewhere else inconvenient?

ICE in Rogers Park. If you see them elsewhere, ping us. Additionally, the campaign office (Clark + Lunt), as always, welcomes everybody except ICE.

And now, we wait.

I think the horrors have gotten to the sandwich bot 🥪

Fuck it, I’m making gluten free (dark) chocolate chip cookies. Because I can.

Ira Madison III recently experienced an apartment fire and now has to do the work of rebuilding his life. If can toss him a few dollars, there is a GoFundMe gofund.me/b33e69b96

Just found where my husband is keeping his, ahem, intimacy aids and I want to hit the rewind button and not open that dresser drawer ever again. Nothing alarming or uncouth, but damn, no wonder he’s stopped bugging me about our lack of romance this year. Dude is set for life 🙄

If you like cute and spooky, go check out Jeremy’s creations!

As always, today's a great day to support artists, writers, creators. If you have the means, buy a book, commission an art piece, play an indie game, go to a live theater show. You can also leave a nice comment, post a review, signal boost someone's work. Everything helps.

All the thinking about fall baking earlier got me craving Amish Friendship Bread, which I probably haven’t had since everyone’s mom was making it back in the 90’s. Bless my bestie, I mentioned it to her and she found a gluten free recipe! Sharing with y’all cuz it looks amazing!

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.” Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

The computer system for my job appears to have been Raptured by mistake.

Oh, hey. Apparently the 50% off promo for the Tikka Chance on Me & Prem Numbers audiobook is STILL going on! Through 10/10: www.audiobooks.com/promotions/p...

Today is my birthday. I have everything I could ever need, but so many do not. I volunteer with an org that provides food, clothing & medical care to our most vulnerable neighbors. We need your help as govt grants are gutted. My birthday wish is donations here <3: givebutter.com/donatehofoco

I think I figured this one out. Tried a King Arthur recipe, started with 2c of gluten free flour and went from there. Made one loaf with Italian herbs & cheese for funsies. Will report back on taste later.

i am very tired and still very depressed and emotional and now my bank account is overdrawn again from my tax payment and i'm just exhausted from the everything (v#nmo @ dexanderson)

Hey, Autism is not a disease. While not all Autistics have food aversion, it is found in a lot of Autistic and neurodivergent folk. If you want to stick it to the people sharing and celebrating the spreading of misinformation about Autism, share stuff made by Autistic folk. Like my book:

Welp, last week bread went moldy overnight, so fresh batch today! Attempting some burger buns with a pizza dough base. Also placed a decent-sized order with King Arthur Baking to stock up on gluten free mixes & flour blends. Still no sign of the GF sugar cookie mix though 😢

Kitties on a Monday morning.

The importance of making sure your cheese sticks are frozen before you fry them. A story in 2 parts.

I don’t know why it hasn’t occurred to me until about an hour ago that I can, 97% sure, make homemade gluten free mozzarella sticks. Will report back later. Cheese sticks currently chilling in freezer while I get set up to make dinner.

Happy #TalkLikeAPirateDay! Although a few piracy cases heard in London's Old Bailey live up to the swashbuckling heists of stereotype, many reveal the surprising mundanity of maritime crimes, incl. arguing over chickens + the stealing of a captain’s hats: publicdomainreview.org/essay/p...

Over the years my dad had given my Marvel books to the lady at McDonalds to give to her kids. She gave these to him as a thank you. I’m clearing some space at his place and looking to sell these. Interested? Free pick-up in Cincinnati!

Whatever you do, please don’t stop reading. Read for joy. Read for education. Read for resistance. Read banned books. Read books by marginalized authors. Read about experiences that differ from your own. Just. Keep. Reading.

My work desk contents fit in a single shopping bag. I travel light.

Folks, these are OLD friends of mine. Like 20+ years friends. We've seem some shit together. They're good people, working hard to make the world a more progressive place. 1100 bucks is not a huge ask. Can we do this?

Today is Mexican Independence Day. This crew of farm workers celebrated it by wearing the colors of the Mexican flag as they harvested peas today on CAs Central Coast. #WeFeedYou

Just going to remind you that if the police or any other law enforcement show up you should ABSOLUTELY say I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT i.e., then say nothing else except repeatedly demanding a lawyer.

#Minterland - I'm helping to find a home for two sweet little black kitten girls! Jaybird has brown eyes and her sister Seychelle has green eyes. These sweet bonded babies are currently located in Kern County California, but can be transported to Southern California (or elsewhere, if needed!)

In honor of the last Wednesday at the old office tomorrow, I’m bringing in all the baked goods. Pumpkin Spice sugar cookies, cinnamon brownies, PB chocolate banana bread.
