OK but that Grids & Guides notebook with the fun shapes and charts will fix me, right?

COURT QUEENS is out March 17, women's hoops in pictures and words, 1890s to 2020s. It was a blast to pull together such a love letter of a coffee table book—pre-orders open everywhere you buy your books 🧡 (But 25% off for Barnes and Noble members right now! www.barnesandnoble.com/w/court-quee...)

Rearranging household objects to solve puzzles in A Little to the Left is bringing me so much joy this holiday season

plz snatch this MIND GAME paperback I just signed at the lovely @astoriabookshop.bsky.social!

Just in time for NBA Christmas, I'm soft-launching heatcheck.site. Heatcheck tells you if an NBA game was good without spoiling the result. To do so, I've built the Heat Index, a system that accounts for final score margin, lead changes, and back-and-forth drama. Would love your feedback!

🚨BIG JOURNALISM JOB ALERT🚨 @jewishcurrents.bsky.social is looking for a new editor-in-chief (now that the LEGENDARY Arielle Angel is stepping back to be an editor-at-large):

unsolicited advice: 1. post about your book 2. put the TITLE of the book in the post 3. put a LINK TO BUY THE BOOK in the post 4. consider a cute graphic or just put the cover of your book (with alt text!) in the post 5. post about it as if this is the first time someone's learning about it/you

Joining us on 1/15 for a @squawkinsports.bsky.social trans writer panel with @juliekliegman.com @xbennyboo.bsky.social & @dirtbagqueer.rocks is a great way to show support and have a beer with ballers. Also @davidjroth.bsky.social Tix make a fine 🎄🎁 🍻 greenlightbookstore.com/event/2026-0...

shrieking lunatics who'd rather kill their own children than have a conversation or sit in discomfort for a few hours

great idea from @themarshallproject.org

I've said this before but the NJ Air National Guard roundel should be sliced pork roll cut on the edges so it doesn't curl up on the griddle

I can’t stress enough how badly you all need to read this lol (a day pass is $5)

beautiful drawing but weird weird weird

Is it too late to take a sick day today? I am feeling fine except I made a Bruce Almighty joke to coworkers? *Something* clearly wrong with me

A lovely tribute from @lindaholmes.bsky.social, and I think I shall watch The Sure Thing soon

Which is *actually* the best scene in When Harry Met Sally and why is it Surrey With a Fringe on Top karaoke

Great list of tennis book recs that I’m flattered to have my forthcoming FINDING RENÉE RICHARDS (August 2026) included on. Thank you @benrothenberg.bsky.social and @girinathan.bsky.social!

Which new-to-me NYC museum/exhibit should I get to soon? Yes you are responsible for knowing every museum I’ve already checked off before you reply, plz and thx lol

Asexuality is a global identity. That’s a major finding in a study I recently published with @francescorampazzo.com in Demographic Research. Analyzing dating app data spanning 162 countries from over 900,000 users, we found that asexuality showed up in every age group and in every region.

Anyway if you need any supplemental writing, editing or blogging for the 2026 Olympics I am available! I will make your coverage better I promise!

I hope I’m never so loathed that my dismal book sales become news

A look from @theresagaff.bsky.social at how early-career trans and nonbinary researchers are dealing with lost funding and more generally ~the state of things~
