Top of my wish list at Spirit Halloween!

He’s just jealous of that hippie hair.

Ya know, if this is how MAGA officials are greeted every time they step out onto the streets of DC, no wonder they call in the National Guard. Keep it up, hecklers!

Serious query: Have elections EVER been cancelled due to war? (Getting ready to write that letter to my Congress people.)

Why is it sad to say adieu to a faithful pair of shoes? These were meant to take me around Scotland, a trip scuttled by Covid. Since then, they became comfortable stand-bys for my office job, and then trusty work boots around the house. The heel blew out. I’m saving the laces as twine.

So Pete Hegseth was on the trip too?

Has anyone else got the joke that it’s not Norway that hands out the Nobel prizes? It’s Sweden. I think Norway should have said, “Uh, sure. We got one right here.”

I hope she’s lying about #3 & #4.

Smiling head exploding emoji! Good stuff for writers and readers.

Ah! Finally, a picture of Scotland that isn’t connected to that Orange Menace.

“To be a novelist or a short story writer, you first have to pretend to be a novelist or a short story writer.” —Charles Baxter, “All the Dark Nights—a Letter”

Crosseyed and Painless But I second all these other choices.

This sounds like a story in the making.

For real?! You HAVE to check this website out!

Is that legally enforceable?

Norte Dame, eh? Some nut job is going to argue that Mary never breastfed her baby in church.

Going through my 100k-word manuscript to make the capitalization of “thank god” and “thank God” consistent. Any thoughts on which one to use? And I thank Goodness for all-search! #WritingCommunity

Hear me out on this one: If we abolish the Department of Education, MAGA maps like this won’t be a problem.

THAT is where the Epstein file list went!

Step 1: Do like we do in the US and call them zucchinis. Problem solved! (Follow me for what to do with a hella ton of zucchini.)

The Art of the Butthole Or The Butthole of the Deal

Minimum Wage. (*whip crack* “Yeehaw!”)

I forget—how much did that parade cost? Maybe start with that?

So, kind of like his new health care plan? We can only hope…
