Update on the fate of yesterday's #nokings sign.

This was my sign today. #nokings

Oh the irony of being absolutely furious at how hard it is to skip an ad for a meditation app.

If I ever send a text meant for my sister to someone else, it will ruin my life.

NANCY WISHES YOU A HAPPY FRIDAY

It's ✨ meeeeee! ✨ 🎶 So if you care to find me, look to 🎶... 4th place. So psyched to be part of the anthology, and I had a ton of fun participating in this competition. Positively itching to read the rest of these stories-- some of these titles have piqued my curiosity.

Important: Frankenstinesque or Frankenstinian (pronounced like 'Justinian')? 💙📚 #amwriting

So I am re-reading Wuthering Heights, and something about the ambience I have been listening to has caused me to visualize the story playing out as a cartoon in the visual style of Courage the Cowardly Dog. It is AWESOME. I wish I had any of the skills required to make it real. 💙📚 #booksky

Bluesky seems like a good place to share my #iceout sign from yesterday.

In the Jingle All The Way universe, a slutty Turbo Man costume certainly exists, and it DEFINITELY has "It's Turbo Time!" written on the ass in gold. #christmas

Weird that milk's favorite cookie is also vegans' go-to junk food.

Times New Roman bums me out. #amwriting #writingcommunity

After a beta reader pointed out a "literary circlejerk," I am going to see if rewriting this prologue using the Jokerman font will help me make it less pretentious/wordy. Stay tuned. #amwriting #writingcommunity

I'm a super rare "PJs Writer" Beanie Baby for Halloween. #halloween #millennial #gpoy #writersofbluesky #beaniebaby #selfie

After battling laryngitis for three weeks, I have developed CRAVINGS for sugar free cough drops. What the fuck.

One of the worst things about me is my absolute certainty that I would've done well on Twitter in the early/mid 2010s.

I have a fever and can't sleep. I bring you... biscuits and jam. 🥰 jk it's a toasted expired keto hamburger bun because i don't have sliced bread #foodsky #food #breadsky #class #taste #tumblrmillennialhashtagusage

The guy on the elliptical trainer one over from me has a very deep voice and a quiet, villainous chuckle. He's listening to a podcast and going 'muahahaha...' but he also looks so MIRTHFUL. Such a quiet, earnest villain. Is this my new gym crush? #fitness #runnersofbluesky

Chaplin is sitting on my diary and I kind of feel like I should move her because of exposure to bad vibes? Like she's going to get something akin to radiation poisoning via Bad Vibes osmosis? #cat #catsofbluesky

#NOKINGS New York City, NY

Miami!!! Woo hoo!

Times Square

What's the opposite of death by a thousand cuts? Life by a thousand stitches?

I'm "on" Bluesky the way that I am "inside" the hall closet when I periodically open the door, scream over the threshold, and then shut it.

There's Something About Mary and Galaxy Quest are the two best comedies send skeet

Respectful Jogger Yells ‘Move Or I Could Kill You’ As They Run Past

Cannot believe Gen Z settled on 'sewer slide' and 'unalive yourself' when 'krill yourself' was right fucking there.

Men like to belittle women for their fitness accessories, but there's a man at the gym wearing a MAGA cap on the elliptical trainer. Indoors. While it is pouring rain outside. Two hours before sunrise.

Novel's going well. #amwriting #writingcommunity #hangmen

So embarrassing that Abraham Lincoln was murdered by a theatre kid

“No one man can terrorize a whole nation, unless we are all his accomplices.” -Edward R. Murrow

aS a LeO, I have no choice but to scream into the void, so I think the compromise goal should be to make it more of a "woohoo!!!" scream into the void rather than an "OH GOD HELP!" scream into the void. A rollercoaster scream, not a The Scream scream.

2010s media was all about teaching men that the manic pixie dream girl is, in fact, a manic depressive pixie dream girl.

give this lady a sock and a piano accompaniment and she would tear the party UP

My high school English teacher just told me this, which is very kind, BUT WHAT WAS IN MY AP LIT SATIRE VIDEO 13 YEARS AGO??? 😭 I have no memory of it!

Focus Friend fan art doodled in a moving vehicle. He has no clothing, because to clothe the Bean is to acknowledge his nakedness. You know, the thing that got Adam and Eve cast out of Eden. @hankgreen.bsky.social I love the skins. Please let us accessorize the Bean. #focusfriend #sweeneytodd

Summer Break is up for Publication of the Month! I would LOVE for my shark-infested natural disaster flash fiction (whose working title was "Sharknami") to take this. Read here: spillwords.com/summer-break/ Vote here: spillwords.com/vote/ #writingcommunity #writesky

Forgot some of these were ghost stories!!! Bringing them in. I'll let you know if they're still good at 31.

Found my old Animal Ark books and, as Spock once said to Chris Pine, "I am emotionally compromised." 💙 📚 #booksky

Netanyahu: ‘These So-Called Genocide Experts Have Probably Never Committed A Genocide In Their Lives’

Interesting read about language, class, and gender. I'm not usually a book club fiction person, but this one hooked me. Such a well done story. 💙📚 #booksky

I have a flash fiction piece about a giant shark up on Spillwords today! spillwords.com/summer-break/ #writer #writesky

Getting the covid mRNA vaccine, every year: Me: Hey, I got you instructions for a craft project! ☺️ Body: Oh, I love making things!!! [Body builds a spike protein, per my instructions] Body: Oh my GOD, what is THAT??? ✋ 🛑 🚨 ‼️ What have I WROUGHT with my own hands??? BURN IT!

10/10, no notes

Lost: Dog. Has no idea what it’s doing with its life. Lacks perspective.

The end isn’t the part that matters most.
