Explaining to my Canadian wife that Americans celebrate Thanksgiving on Thursdays because Thanksgiving is the Thursday of holidays

Gonna spend my Thanksgiving holiday trying to adjust to my new progressive lenses. Aging! What a delight!

I have to wake this snoozy puppy up and I feel so guilty about it but we’ve got to goooooo!

I will admit to many frailties and flaws. I am far from perfect and have made plenty of mistakes and there are plenty of things I am bad at. You could not pay me enough to declare that I am incapable of composing my own insults.

Brand new romance, 1.99 for a short time amzn.to/4rfj6Dj

Me, checking the score of Eagles/Cowboys: wow, I guess the Cowboys really do suck

good morning, logging on to catch up on what i missed on a serene autumn saturday morning

people are reading "catch-and-kill" in the journalistic sense but she was probably just finding raccoons for him to eat

Weird how these guys are rushing to the defense of a bunch of guys who trapped young girls on an island and traded them around like sexual Pokemon cards by acting like it's the same as catching sight of a girl in a Starbucks and thinking she's cute

Me, all week with these people.

If you’re a romance writer on a deadline, don’t read the Nuzzi saga part 2. You don’t have time to do a full brain bath afterwards,

The world owes romance writers an apology. We told you that writing dirty talk was an art, but you didn't believe us.

How on earth do you people still have Bingo cards?

Today I learned about a dog named Mildred Vanilla—or Milli Vanilli for short, and I have been intermittently cackling ever since.

I cosign every single word of this anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/h...

I have been thinking about this line today, on the value of editors, from the late great John Bennet, for no reason in particular.

Was she watching the McLaughlin Group in a constant state of arousal

andy cohen needs to get them together for a three-part reunion

Honestly this the BlueSky World Cup

I will read eight million words of bad writer on bad writer violence

Me upon reaching the last line: "Excuse me WHAT THE FUCK?"

The bamboo is a metaphor, you see

women are always saying “lord grant me the confidence of a mediocre man.” ok well he did. now what. is the world a better place? look at what you’ve wrought.

📝The tropes: older brother's best friend, enemies to lovers 💌The plot: When the hockey fuckboy punches the feisty librarian's shitty ex boyfriend in a bar, he gets sentenced to community service at the library ... where she has to supervise him 📖The book: More Than a Feeling #romancelandia

This better be in theaters I WANT TO SEE THIS IN A DARK ROOM WITH POPCORN AND A CRISPY FOUNTAIN COKE PLEASE AND THANK YOU

This should have stayed on Xanga

All these podcasts dedicated to telling men how to get power and mold their bodies all in the name of attracting women, when the single best thing you can do to attract a woman is to LIKE WOMEN. And these guys don’t. They fundamentally do not like women.

Fuck this. I’m gonna age like a bog witch. Aging is a privilege and old is the goal!

Tried to get a shot of a new tattoo, got a shot of the hottest lady I know. @laurenmorrill.bsky.social

Shut up everyone, my favorite show’s on (@jamellebouie.net clowning JD Vance)

So many vulnerable people were hurt, harassed and raped by these ghouls and now—I’m worried—it’s gonna become hehe haha lurid internet circus instead of a long overdue moral reckoning. I’m scared of who we all are becoming. That man has brought us ALL low.

I got bifocals today and lemme tell you, as a perimenopausal reader, this is AMAZING.

Last time I checked, she was an editor at Vanity Fair and had a book coming out with Simon & Schuster

They will try to censor porn. They will use those rules to then censor anything and everything else 1 inch at a time. You need to support porn and you need to do it vocally. The Internet (and all other media types) you save will be your own.

I swear. I don’t care if you watch or use porn. If you are in the Internet you need to support porn. Without porn most of the Internet you love wouldn’t have happened and wouldn’t be happening. Porn makes the wheels go round. Not that enough ppl pay for theirs but that’s a diff issue. (Cont)

Three of my books that were write-for hire were in the Anthropic suit, and I just got an email from the company that owns the copyrights that they’re offering a percentage of the settlement to authors “in recognition of the value of your work.” Wow, good news in the world of publishing for once!

Well, it's a little clearer now why billionaires are so invested in technology that produces better written emails.

Whenever food delivery arrives I usually shout “food’s here!” to get the boys to the table, and the dog has learned that one and comes BOLTING (the pizza delivery folks love her the most, I swear they’d give the pizza right to her if they could)

Proof positive that JD Vance has never once in his life done anything physically demanding enough to have had muscle pain or soreness. The softest man who ever lived (derogatory)

These Epstein drops have taught me that I apparently spend far too much time and attention composing emails.

This is what breaks through my reflexive cynicism. This is a guy who has correctly stated he could shoot someone in the middle of the street and not lose support and he is obviously panicking about this

Sustainable band lineups include four cool people (Ramones), four dorks (Weezer), or two cool people and two dorks (Cheap Trick). Unsustainable band lineups include one cool person and three dorks (Pixies)

For the foreseeable future, if I get on a plane and see Sean Duffy on it, I’m getting off immediately

Kendrick, Joyce Carol Oates, Menswear Guy, and Isaac Chotiner are the Voltron of People You Don't Want Focusing on You

There is a table full of Campus Crusaders/future divorced dads sitting next to me talking about how important it is to date a girl who believes a man is the head of the household, and not one of them gives off “more than one bath towel” vibes.

Well I guess at least now we’re getting the Epstein Files?

DONALD TRUMP: [asleep, drooling on long red tie] SENATE DEMOCRATS: fine, we give in

Exactly, they basically gave Rs a win. It’s like rejecting the layup in favor of seeing if you can make a winning 3-pointer from the parking lot and then being like, “Well, we did what we could, you just didn’t understand the vision.” -H

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.
