My 8yo cried tonight at bedtime because I joked that since he doesn’t like to clean, he’ll need to make enough money someday to hire a housekeeper. “I don’t want to have to get a job! I don’t like thinking about the future!” I mean, same, but

In honor of Brian Wilson's passing, here are the four categories of Beach Boys songs: 1. surfing is great, you should try it 2. I have a good vehicle 3. I reach beyond myself into the ineffable, and that's where I find you, my love 4. sloop john b

I love learning about the writing and revision process for classic books, and this thread is pure delight. There’s something very validating in finding out that Tolkien was a plantser while working on TFotR.

Start a big dumb project that's going to go nowhere. It's fun. It's pointless. It's like gambling with free lottery tickets. Any of this shit you just make up could become a bestseller. Give into the literary hysteria in 2025.

Husband and I got a surprise day without the children. It is not yet 3 p.m. and we have already had sex, eaten sushi, and shopped for all our holiday food. If we get home in time to watch an entire movie before the kiddos need picked up, it will be a perfect day.

I’m subbing for my daughter’s 4th grade class today, and I found this on her desk while they were at PE. She’s very protective. 😂🤦‍♀️
