This butt doesn’t get that I’m too warm to snuggle

There’s a massive immigration operation in Memphis right now, but you may not have heard about it. Why? Community members face retaliation for trying to spread the word out, a lawsuit alleges.

Couldn’t tune in earlier so very pleased to find the BUF-MTL game is still close 😅

Please share or give. When Aunt Priscilla and my mother were jailed in 1960 during their historic Jail-In after their arrest at a Woolworth lunch counter, baseball great Jackie Robinson sent them DIARIES. Here are some excerpts from her diary!

Toggling between an Eric Adams ep of @ifbookspod.bsky.social and reading The City We Became is a trip but also excellent Who is going to take me to New York??

Add “trenchant” to the list of words that sound like the opposite of what they mean

Fellas I finished The Poet Empress yesterday morning and I’m still hungover. Landing this grim poem-magic novel’s ending was a feat that made me pace around. odysseybks.com/book/9781250...

Before I go to Pinterest/Google, do YOU have a recipe for bok choy for someone who’s realized they don’t like bok choy? And isn’t a huge stir fry fan?

enigmatic post

Last week @dodecahedron.bsky.social made this when I was feeling very bad. I want y'all to have it, too. Has alt text and everything, ready to copy, download, quote, etc. Because it's true! Be excellent to each other.

Any favorite silly little things you’ve done to celebrate a milestone? -I have a decade-turn birthday soon & tho I’m not big into age as a metric some of the other context is making it feel heavy

80% of incarcerated women are parents. Let’s reunite these Black mamas and caregivers with their families so they can return home in time for #MothersDay. Help us raise $500K to #FreeBlackMamas! bit.ly/freeblackmamas2026

Trying to parse if two college students were just talking about stealing from MY store right in front of me or their complaints about the costs of our tee shirts were unrelated to the plan to steal stickers they felt free to mention while standing in front of my stickers……….

Less invested in the Bruins and more invested in plotlines so my favorite bit so far in tonight’s game was the careful body language of the Sabres gathered around Doan for the goal celebration after he got absolutely clobbered setting it up

Genuinely not sure if this shirt is going to be cool to wear into class “inside” today but let’s hope the COs see neon pink READ BOOKS and don’t bother to look further

Turning ai slop emails from scammers into horror poetry

This is for everyone with an invisible disability, everyone who's been gaslit about their illness, and everyone who became disabled later in life. This story is for you. bsky.app/profile/effi...

Post your favorite “lord of the rings” characters. Wrong answers only.

It’s actually gender equity but watching refs push PWHL players away from each other feels a bit odd when they’re dudes

Missed half the hockey game that broke out during the Buf/Bos fight last night, now rewatching the middle* I missed. Fave bit so far is Swayman skating away cradling the puck as fisticuffs erupt in front of his net again like, “Come child, we need not be part of this” *condensed game

Have unfortunately trained myself to sing “I’m too autistic for this CAPTCHA” (to the tune you’d expect) when confronted with proving I can identify the difference between the bike and it’s rider or whatever

People ask me if I can still speak Japanese and in general I feel mediocre about saying yes after 20 years but I CAN improv-sing to our cat about his internal monologue around dinner time so

Currently the only way I get to write is by neglecting other responsibilities. I have, however, recently also decided to lean into my oppositional instincts so I got to write today!

Super American but I just realized that instead of spoons I find it easier to think in terms of rounds. Also learning the hard way that using the last shot means being truly *screwed* if anything else happens

I have been fighting dehydration the last week or so because of how much box-lifting I’ve been doing at work 😂 usually don’t need to drink much after my morning quart* *this sounds fully unhinged typed out srry for being a wellness coach in recovery

I'm seeing people defending this decision by saying things like "this is eliminating prison LIBRARIANS, not LIBRARIES" so let's take a closer look at that. 1/

Great 🧵! The high control of what materials enter corrections facilities means that w/o librarians access could shrink. And libraries don’t maintain themselves! (I hear complaints about others holding communal books too long, haha) The condition of the books deteriorates, relevance, so much.

TFW you’re 3 rows in and the gage is *clearly* wrong but it IS a K2P2 rib….

In the midst of the uniquely joyful book hangover from the first book in a new series by a longtime fave author

the sense of relief and yet bittersweet rejection when the cat leaves me to sleep in peace

Because one of the ways my brain entertains itself is worrying about people unconnected to me, I’ve been mulling over the tepid reviews of the Arirang album… Then I realized: there are reviews of the new BTS album. That *I* can read. They’re fine.

Also, on the 8th, 9th, and 10th, Tor is sending to bookstores in South Hadley, MA; Portland, ME; and Cambridge, MA to support The Subtle Art of Folding Space. See you there!

Thrilled that @odysseybks.bsky.social will be hosting @johnchu.bsky.social & @jedediahberry.bsky.social on Wednesday! Join me there!

I wanna shoutout @shelf-awareness.com for a standout April Fool’s edition (which I finally read). I’ve never read a satire that spoke to me more personally, haha!* www.shelf-awareness.com/issue.html?i...

GREAT NEWS Tho I already composed the emails I needed it for it’s April 1st which means this is on my dash just in time for me to hit send

To get through my docket for the night I could really use a playlist of the most abrasively peppy EDM

It’s always a good day when I can bring my writing group participants the chapbooks printed with their work! Even if it’s so late I owe them another one…

I had decided that I’d lost this knife in the last pair of panicked moves, which I’ve been proud to not lose through the previous 14 or so moves since it was given to me at 12. Strange little joys sometimes!

Alas, it has been determined this is the most practical way to wear my hair for hockey

I was a lil worried about not playing for over 3 weeks before my MHC alum game but one of my teammates hasn’t played in 3 years. (She’s under 25, tho!)

Heard recently someone express that fake swears give them the ick and this is now haunting me (Like, I get it!)(But also…)

Brain fizz. Must Stardew the heck out and sleep!

In a beautiful plot twist, after leaving the inspection queue because I had my old registration, my new registration WAS IN MY IMPORTANT CAR FILES FOLDER Wrong, but orderly

Anyone know about good off-boarding tools? That sounds silly (right terminology would be great, too) but I’m really interested in how to have good communication at a closing. Volunteer esp. but employee, too! Exit interview?

HR 7551, the National book ban bill, has passed the markup and is being recommended to the House with amendment. Here’s who voted how. This isn’t over. CALL YOUR HOUSE REPS NOW.

More Sirens crafts! One is my attempt at evoking an Austen scene and the other I’ve decided is the shape of a long-awaited story…
