The SAVE act would mean that, if you are a married woman who took your husband's name once married, you would no longer be able to vote. This is HR 8281 if you want to read it for yourself and it's already passed the house. #saveact t.ly/m_rc1

I’m in the mountains in TN & mom casually mentions that she saw a “massive shadowed creature on two legs with hooves swaying back and forth while looking in the window” last night around midnight. We are on the second floor. 😳

It’s science that sneeze-screaming makes the sneezing stop sooner.

Dad and I watched George C Scott’s 1984 Christmas Carol every Christmas Eve. The composer, Nick Bicat, never released the soundtrack but will mail it to you if you can track down his email address, which isn’t hard. Now, each year, Bicat sends us new songs and updates as “stocking stuffers.” 🥰

When the queen of audiobooks writes and then narrates her own book, the situation is going to be 🔥 #juliawhelan #audiobooks #skyreaders #audiosky #roadtrip #amreading #thankyouforlistening

I’d be friends with guy 3.

We listen and we don’t judge: I always watch Unsolved Mysteries hoping that one episode will end with a surprise announcement that they have, in fact, solved the mystery.

Being middle aged involves having a favorite Publix because you can’t be bothered to learn a new layout of a different store. #Publix #Florida #middleaged

Workshopping replying “you can get glad in the same pants you got mad in,” my East Texas piano teacher’s favorite phrase, to grade grubbers this semester. #academicsky #skystorians #highered #professorsaretired

Giant. Mystery. Drones. Over New Jersey. www.npr.org/2024/12/11/n...

OK, it had to be done. Let me know if you want to be listed (or de-listed) (I barely know what I'm doing, though). go.bsky.app/6TKRCda

I can tell a lot about you by how you rank your Scrooges. Obviously it’s George C Scott, Albert Finney, Michael Caine, Scrooge McDuck, in that order?

When you’re a professor administrator these are the hardest two weeks because as an instructor I am DONE but now I have to field grade grubs and complaints but I just want to bake cookies and read fairy smut.

I remember a time when it was possible to be unreachable. I’m not nostalgic for much, but I’m nostalgic for that.

My TikTok feed is alternating Wicked choreo, ads for skin care products, and live streaming various coups. It’s like one of those flipbooks from childhood, only a dystopian hellscape.

South Korea: convenes a legislative majority at 1 AM that fights through police to get into session, then votes unanimously to reject wannabe autocrat's martial law efforts. US: legislative majority rolls over to wannabe autocrat, minority reelects the same innefective leadership it's had for years

“Officers were allegedly overheard coordinating to break detainees’ arms or legs, with instructions from their superiors to target the liver and head.” www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/202...

The generational resistance to giving or receiving Christmas lists is baffling to me as a xennial. We moms are overtaxed with the mental load. Just tell us. TELL US FOR GOD’S SAKE

If I could do this for like 3 weeks uninterrupted I seriously believe I would solve all of my problems.

I’m 2 books shy of doubling my original reading goal of 52 books in 2024. What should my last reads be? #reading #skyreaders #fable #romantasy #thrillers #blueskyreaders #fantasy #books

I just really need someone to talk with me about Jonathan Bailey flamenco dancing in #wicked #dancingthroughlife #jobathanbailey #wickedmovie

Show me your fun Thanksgiving break reads. #reading #booksky #broadbent #romantasy #nyaxia

Are we doing it right? #NewYorkerCartoons nyer.cm/CTZvmGD 🖊️ @jasonadamk.bsky.social

This audiobook is a weird hilarious delight so far if you need to listen to something other than news for a minute. #audiobooks #hollowplaces #books

Brand new to bluesky and just discovered starter packs. OMG I missed so many of you from 🐦! #vastearlyamerica

I've created a starter pack for those researching and writing histories of the Atlantic world. If you are working in any field that falls within, or is related to, Atlantic history you are welcome. Just reply below and I'll add you. go.bsky.app/E8itZWt

Me: Brain, I need my keys. We have a loaner and no spare and have to get the kid to school. Brain: Here are the lyrics to an Alanis Morissette song you haven't heard in 20 years. Me: No thank you. Just the keys. Brain: Sorry. <sniffs like the doorknocker in Laybrinth> Can't help you.

I can’t tell if my dog Harley Quinn is enraged or posing for adoration at her school today. Atticus Finch, her brother behind her, is apparently awaiting his own adornment.

“Professor, the YouTube creator I’m citing for the book bans paper is called Maple Syrup. So would MLA refer to them as Syrup, Maple?” 😂😂😂

Just heard the most infuriating Daily podcast where some of the women's march activists who began fighting in 2016 wanted to give up now because their "protests achieved nothing." More women were elected to congress than ever in 2018. Harris RAN and received 74,094,119 votes. That's not nothing.

#Fable is such a beautiful reading app for #booknerds. #reading #romantasy #booksky

Just applied to be part of the HERS leadership network for women in higher ed. I hope I get in. Wish me luck!! #hers #academicsky

Follow me primarily for the wild stuff that happens to me on a daily basis in Florida. Yesterday, a man ran me off the road and then chased me into my own garage. I still don't know what he wanted. To know me is to know weird but slightly upsetting things are always happening to me wherever I go.

I'm not sure I can handle another social media account, but here we are.
