Tiktok did it again. It has been peer pressuring me to do more canning which I WANT TO DO, but then just now if was like "RAW MILK LOOKS FUN AMIRITE?" NO! you are not right!

My inbox from now until November:

through a series of ridiculous events I don't even want to get into, I just spent 10 minutes trying to fish a tiny 3D printed ghost dragon out of my sink drain before it decided to get down into the pipes and result in a very embarrassing call to a plumber. I did succeed. but.

Hey, this is a reminder that the Unbound for Gaza auction is live right now. I have the complete Wedgeford Trilogy up here: www.32auctions.com/organization...

the worst part of being alive right now is seeing a post like this and not knowing if it's like "yes obviously" or "what fresh horror"

@mostlybree.kitrocha.com I made those taquitos you posted about! However, I modified the recipe for NM taste buds. They were easy and made a lot! Now my freezers are filled with cookie sheets. 🤭 (this is NOT all of them! 👀) Thanks for posting about them!

Hey Tessa Dare fans! Tessa is still on social media hiatus but she donated a FULL SET of the Castles Ever After books to the Unbound for Gaza auction, and they are going for a STEAL right now. (sorry to whoever has the highest bid, but all is fair) www.32auctions.com/organization...

I was trying to offer high res maps to my editor earlier today but my phone has starting autocorrecting "high res" to "high tea" which is hilarious and also would like to make a high tea map now.

It is the final day of our big "just gotta hang on until the book money hits" sale! And y'all have been SO GENEROUS and also we're running out of stuff, so I'm gonna try to pre-schedule one final thread and hope stuff is still in stock! lol thebrokencircle.etsy...

come hang out with us in a few weeks at Little Shop of Stories!! littleshopofstories.com/event/2025-1...

I was in MY formative years (early 20s) when we watched Colin Powell spend MONTHS laying out pretexts for war and yeah, they were lies and even then many of us knew it! But they made a huge sweeping case & got buy in from congress. Now the VP's like "lol don't go fishing or we'll bomb you"

Yes!! Also the election thing bothers me personally because I feel like you have to be WILDLY PRIVILEGED to say "oh nooo we won't have free and fair elections so it's all over" Y'all I live 50 miles from Selma, I don't want to hear it. We don't have free & fair elections down here already!

This is EXCELLENT. 1) this is spot-on analysis of the problem & a great immediate 1st thing a city can do to improve outcome. 2) as a 2 min clip? He's giving history, hope & change. Speaking to women, to Jewish & Black NYers, saying "abortion." & also naming eugenics in feminism. 100/10 no notes.

I mean I don't know what to say to people who think they aren't taking 150 Ls per week, roughly. Which they are! They just took a hugely visible one over Kimmel, but they lose in court constantly and their lawyers are getting worse & their cases are getting dumber and most don't hit SCOTUS.

Every single time something ridiculous like this happens visibly, they are bleeding from a few more wounds. Even when they "win" they are short term wins with zero regard for the long term consequences.

My dream of how the AI bubble bursts.

Oh boy.

Me: forever mad about the FBI’s surveillance, propaganda, violent work to destroy everyone from Du Bois to BLM Also me: people need to understand what is happening to Comey is bad, big bad. It’s the both/and. Sometimes I think the hardest work for educators and media is to explain nuance/context

I jumped into Jenny's livestream for about 30 minutes and if you want to see me make absolutely ridiculous guesses about who various Babylon 5 characters are based on one picture, go look. LOL I think they are now rating B5 eps!

weird AI slop pictures of Trump that mostly seem to exist to make fun of his weight and the concept of adult diapers are just an instant trip to block town on like every possible level. 1) don't use AI 2) don't be a fatphobic shit 3) don't be an ableist shit 4) why?? what?? be better.

Men will continue to impose tariffs while taking a dump instead of going to therapy

He did remind me that I want to order some of those IKEA pegboards tho, I guess i should go do that right now

My mother sent me a YouTube video of the president of Finland giving a speech she liked and while I have not watched it, I assume it would piss off Trump, so I honestly wondered if he thinks IKEA is from Finland and that is what is happening. Somehow I'm sure the real reason's even dumber.

What the fuck is even happening right now, is he just sitting on the toilet imposing tariffs on everything he can think of??

Reposting this today for Reasons.

You need these. Seriously.

"No hate, no fear! Immigrants are welcome here!" Absolutely massive crowd at the New Yorkers Against ICE march. Blocks long!

I had already changed my behavior on the tail end of twitter, mostly to stop fighting over stupid stuff, sharing things that are just outrage with no action items, and not dunk QTing anymore. So I'm pretty much the same here, but with better moderation tools and an even more fun block. 😂

We're doing the pizza recipe this time! Her basic recipe makes 4 250g dough balls. 3 are now in the freezer, the fourth is in the cast iron pan!

YEAH WE DO

Ok then, who is next?

I'm sorry but Darth suppressed my free speech when I tried to tell my dog she couldn't have the cookbook

You can say a lot about how much Bluesky sucks but they tried to cancel Dril here and are accusing Darth of suppressing free speech so you know we are COOKING WITH GAS

Just bought some "Nope. Absolutely the fuck not" stickers to give to friends and also put on all my stuff!

these make great gifts for TTRPG players, and you can get them for a lower price now *and* they'll be with you before Hallowe'en, never mind any other celebrations for which you might want to give gifts

It's day two of the "just got to hold on until the book check hits" sale! (A very publishing vibes sale indeed. LOL) We have 25% off everything in the shop as long as supplies last (I already emergency reprinted the clicky dumpsters!) Visit http://thebrokencirc...

A friend of mine (Tanaz Bhathena) just shared her wonderful adult fantasy debut news. I don't think she's on here, so I'll post it for her. I'm so excited!

i have to keep hyping this, it is release week 😭 ty for letting me fill up your skyline ❤️

We need to sell about 500 of these to fully fund the native plant project for 2026. We're at about 90 so far so we're getting there! Tell your animal loving friends about this calendar 😘

This is a great time to get our ancient tome book boxes! They look like books, but the pages slide out so you can hide dice (or other treasures) inside! These are pricey because we print them and then hand paint them, which makes a 25% off sale a great time to grab one! thebrokencircle.etsy...

We've got tons of fidget toys! They spin, they click, they bend and twist! One of our most popular is the CLICKY DUMPSTER! For the next 4 days, everything is 25% off! thebrokencircle.etsy...

National Treasure romance is directly targeting me

BIG SALE ALERT!!! 25% off everything in the shop! We've got to make it the next two weeks until our book money hits, so we're doing one last huge sale! Great time to get spooky season goodies or to start stocking up on holiday gifts! thebrokencircle.etsy...

Ok I finally watched the new Superman and that was fun. I feel like I'm not familiar enough with DC to have totally caught all the references, but I didn't actually mind. I did not want another origin story, I am origin story'd out!

okay I just figured out how to make task views in xtiles that let me organize my To Do list by what room I need to be in to do it, this might be the game changer LOL

Over 500 of y'all have followed @chrisrabb.com since he posted this video. Can we put him over 1000 followers tonight? Dude's the kind of Democrat we've all been saying we want. Give him a follow and support him in this primary, friends!

guys the little fidget guys are the BEST THINGS EVER www.etsy.com/listing/4331... LOOK AT THIS BINOSAUR

@mostlybree.kitrocha.com I have this clicker at the ready constantly for what I know will be contentious, non-productive calls full of dumb, upper management, males filling the airtime with BS. I used it for 5 hours today while keeping projects on track.

Manny Jacinto posted this bc he knows how sad and anxious we all are
