Power doesn’t panic They’re panicking because they’re power is slipping

Immense thanks to Rebecca Rowland for letting me be her conversation partner tonight at The Twisted Spine for the launch of her new novel EMINENCE FRONT from CLASH! Books. We did a puppet show. Plus I grabbed a copy of the Twisted Spine/Shortwave chapbook collab.

I’m gonna need someone to either talk me out of these or buy me these. K thx

Avril Lavigne’s music career has existed longer than ICE Why you gotta make things so complicated?

Where’s the satire? That’s just facts The speed and efficiency with which private equity has ruined everything is genuinely impressive

At 6’s basketball class and 2 found these. Given 2’s history, I had to check with all the parents that she found these and didn’t pickpocket someone. Again.

I’m having a helluva time getting motivated to exercise. With history repeating as the U.S. slides into fascism but stupider and the constant overstimulation from my kids and messy house, my body wants to move and my brain wants to rot 🧵

I’m reading What the Wind Knows and it relies on the ‘woman falls backward in time and finds love’ trope. I’m too practical to find that romantic. Love is great but you know what’s also else is great? Modern medicine Penicillin wasn’t widely available until 1945 FFS

Is that just the French translation for ‘candle?’ Yes. Was it still funny to have my 6 YO call his birthday candle ‘bougie?’ 1000%

Tough Guy by Rachel Reid 🎧 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 This was cute but not my fave so far. I really enjoy the diversity of the couples though. And the Ilya & Shane cameos were everything to me. #booksky💙📚👀

Oh my gosh you guys! The House just passed my bill to extend the health care tax credits for three more years!

Truly. I need all non-Black folk to understand that your surprise at how Good is being handled and her death is being laundered right now is an indictment of your understanding and belief in things Black folk have been saying for your whole life. You cannot both believe us and be surprised by this.

I went on social media to grump about Xmas decorations still being up ICE murdered an unarmed civilian My book club book is set in Ireland during 1921. We might need to take notes

My birthday wishlist for 2026 A competent and engaged psychiatrist to medicate my ADHD oldest A short term nanny to potty train my toddler and train me to make the process as painless as possible Congress to do it’s fucking job

I figured out a long time ago that if it can get you sent to rehab, I can’t do it. Drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, opiates. Hell, I don’t even have the stomach for coffee. The fact that I have to endure this timeline stone cold sober is wildly unfair.

I’m pretty sure my oldest is going through a cognitive growth spurt which is pairing well with his ADHD. His ND already mixes like oil and water with whatever ND I have (undiagnosed) so it’s been a LONG 2 week break.

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

I spent New Year’s Day binging graphic novels I kickstarted while my spouse took our chaos gremlins to his mom’s. It was great. #Booksky

Sundown on the ocean for #scape

I’m listening to a podcast mailbag and it asked the hosts which reality TV family I’d like to spend the holidays with. The Kartrashians I despise them but I’d raid their closets for designer stuff they wouldn’t miss then sell it back home. Get paid for that emotional torment and 🫖

I’m currently listening to Where Did Everybody Go by Don Martin and he very much enjoyed the phrase “skate by on the brink of total nonsense.” You could almost use it to describe the utter insanity of the 2020s if it wasn’t marred with such copious death and evil

If Marjorie Taylor Greene *really* cared about the Epstein victims, she would read the names of the perpetrators on the House floor (where she would have immunity) before she leaves office.

Books I read this year that were particularly good I will never do a top ten list you can't make me rank art.

I’m doing the Hardest Reading Challenge You’ll Ever Do (HRCYED). I’m torn between counting Snake-Eater for Animals or the Queer alphabet Roadrunners are definitely a zoo animal for me but a prominent side character is trans.

Can’t imagine why aliens haven’t reached out yet. No idea whatsoever

I was attempting to clean up and tossed a ball across the room to put away. It bounced off 2’s head. She said “Catch.”

I am 20% in to Snake-Eater by T. Kingfisher I just want to give this woman electrolytes and a therapist #Booksky

5.9 and 2 started sharing a room tonight. (I desperately want them to have their own rooms but we need more money.) They’ve been annoying me all day so I’m kind of enjoying listening to them annoying each other over the baby monitor

It’s 10:30 on the first official day of winter break and I’m ready to list him for sale on Facebook marketplace

5.9: I have a pretend phone Me: Cool. Who are you gonna call? 2: Ghostbusters! Me: That is the right answer

Sometimes I wonder what life is like in the timeline where Raegan was a better actor and Twitler’s parents hugged him more

I'm not sure how to interpret today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme, so I will go with the open waters of Lake Ontario, since I spend many early mornings there. This was Thursday's sunrise as the sky changed from red to orange. #OpenHouse #Photography #EastCoastKin

I love it when you can see the shape of them

Me: *gives almost 2 a kiss* Can you give mama kiss? Almost 2: *walks away* #parenting

It can always get worse and/or stupider

I had a weird dream that I there was a pet adoption event. There was an Ibizan hound and poodle mix (50/50) that was available. This was My Dog. It was a soul dog kind of thing. Fairly certain my current dog would not approve. She barely tolerates the kids some days.

I recently found out I have tall optic nerves. I made the mistake of Googling that. The causes range from ‘some are just like that’ to high blood pressure to a brain tumor. I scheduled the MRI as soon as I could Watch me win powerball but have a brain tumor 🙄

My toddler has been working on a poo all day. Her body decides when I’m on the phone with the radiology place is the time to do it.

Me when I get approved for something on NetGalley
