honestly this clip of Dan Hurley's parents yelling HOLY SHIT in unison is the most romantic thing I've ever seen

HOLY SHIT UCONN

omg the UConn men in this basketball game against Duke

now that I think about it, as a child before Goodreads became a thing, I simply never read any books in a series in order. amazing I’m into fantasy books at all because how did I even get a sense of the story when I just read whichever one was available at the library at the time

I also found a hardcover of this book at Half Price Books yesterday. I read this series as a child (all out of order lol) from the library and didn’t know it even came in hardcover. it’s signed and personalized but that doesn’t bother me much

CBS turned their news operation into propaganda, kicked Colbert off the air for making too much trouble, and all that just to have Charles Barkley go on the air on one of their most-watched telecasts of the year and say this lmao

what happened to not buying multiple editions of the same book??? doesn’t apply when I like the book in question 🙂‍↔️😂

imagine the Pope personally calling you a fake bitch who's going to hell lol

I think this is the clearest look I've seen at an F1 steering wheel with the screen on, this one being Hamilton's

okay bought super glue to see if I can fix it and it looks like it’s mayyyyyybe working? fingers crossed it works

I haven’t been keeping up to date with a fandom and all the bad actors in it but what do you mean there are fans acting so bad the fanfic writers are going on strike and pulling their fics off ao3 has a fandom ever gotten so bad, so quickly before 😭

idk why I preordered this Walmart special edition book. I’ve never seen them ship out the week things are released. see: all steelbook drops and books. I need to go to the store

it’s interesting to see people try to argue “you can’t read this old 2000s book with 2026 sensibilities! they’re a product of their time!” and then you go on Goodreads and see 1 star reviews point out the exact same issues during the book’s publication year as people are saying now 😃

👀 another failed convention hitting the timeline. at some point everyone realllllly needs to research on who’s running events because I’m not even surprised

so. a positive thing I’ll say is that everyone is definitely giving it their all youtu.be/b7Jvkl5FhZE

I need to know what the marketing research says from publishing companies when it comes to long titles. like what is too long before people can’t remember the full title. example: I think this cover is great. the title however…😵‍💫

Kaori Sakamoto finishes her amazing career by winning Worlds with a personal best and going out on top I loved Alysa winning gold at the Olympics but this is how Kaori deserved to go out, so happy for her

I need to finish my current audiobook first because if I lose momentum I’m never finishing it. but these are next on my list Hunt the Villain is still living rent free in my brain and I obviously need to tackle the first gen mafia books next 👀

there’s a bar in town that serves a giant mozzarella stick and I am intrigued lol this is true American nonsense. I need someone to go with me to check this out

I’m not really trying to wade into the discourse and this is the least pressing issue maybe of all the things being discussed, but. how does that lady have a $500 credit card limit

I’ve browsing book preorder incentives and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a paperback of an author’s book from another series being up for grabs when you preorder the author’s latest book www.formpl.us/form/4717315...

who is this seller and why are they trying to sell the UK edition for $2000 💀 mind you, their business is in the US

I hate that customer service chat boxes aren’t just a bot where you have to guess the correct buttons to push to get a real person to talk to. but now you have to outwit an AI chatbot 🙃

dang Avon is online and ready on NetGalley. I requested a book like 30 minutes ago and already got approved lol

well looks like I use my in ear headphones too much? my poor Bose QC Ultra just broke 🫠 it’s out of warranty since I’ve had it for almost 2 years and reddit says the only solution (outside of buying new ones) is super gluing it back together

okay this speaks to my interests lol

oh I didn’t know the wait was like that

The latter part is HUGE

Laundromat soda machine

I usually see people excited for book adaptation news but this latest one announced today has readers hoping it gets stuck in development hell or gets cancelled before it airs 😂😭

okay I had to find the post and look up OP’s comment history and idk I think they just yearn for open roads lol www.reddit.com/r/roadtrip/s...

how is a kickstarter stretch goal simply an announcement of the author’s next book 🤨 they should’ve done slipcases as a stretch goal

maybe I need to go to the store to go get a book. it’s completely sold out online and my preorder I made since last SEPTEMBER has no updates and hasn’t shipped

I keep seeing people bring up not wanting to start series books and preferring standalones because people don’t want to spend their time invested in a series if it doesn’t wind up good or whatever~

everyone promoting their baseball romance books and my fave one was unfinished but then unceremoniously deleted off the internet by the author and I’m still sad about it

this is such a nightmare scenario. like what do you mean the audiobook that got recorded was the wrong version and they have to redo it. so I’m guessing the version up for the Libro.fm Influencers ALC program is not the right version 🥴

listening to the Rachel Zegler and Ben Platt tl5y and is this based on the (failed) Broadway version? they sound great. I’m just confused about everything else

I see everyone debating learning cursive in schools but the only question I have is WHO is going to be teaching cursive because, uh, my friends from school who are now teachers also don’t write cursive

OMG

He left it all out on the field(s)

the premise of this sounds silly but then I watched the trailer and I’m afraid this is exactly the kind of movie I like to go watch 😅

trying this book again. this time on audiobook AND following along with the text excerpt that’s already out

wait do NBA teams actually make their sandwiches and not just hand out Uncrustables

Frank Herbert's Dune

well now I can't not see it

soooo there’s a new Bigfoot musical off-Broadway and now there’s a new announcement about a Loch Ness musical starting in New Jersey. what is going on 🧐😂

The only tech product that has delivered on its promise of redefining its field while also preserving the best of the past is this

This is impressive, they’ve invented catfishing for catfish

I feel like I shouldn’t know more about an author’s book and special editions that an author’s own PA they’re actually paying and yet…
