The heat dome over the Midwest is supposed to break today and I can't stop thinking about how the term "heat dome" sounds like it belongs in a golden age scifi thriller. Surrender or face....THE HEAT DOME.

@rangedtouch.bsky.social Listening to the latest Shelved By Genre and loving it but had to remark: Phillip K Dick wrote evocatively about masking and neurodiversity without perhaps meaning to, you say. Eloquently and hugely productively while on a drug now prescribed for ADHD, you say. Hmmm...

@rangedtouch.bsky.social been here, done this, bought the t shirt, investigated the cascade.

@wtyppod.bsky.social I'm listening to the mass transit episode and all I can think listening to Rocz's monorail monopoly rant is "A monorail is for life, not just for Christmas."

Conversation at tonight's Seder included the inquiry, "is Talmud the first recipe blog?" And I died laughing.

My buddy R refers to Chipotle as "Chi po-tell." He says he's bringing home two orders of Chicago's finest Potle for dinner. I hope he got me the extra cheesy Potle.

Welcoming @marcusparks.bsky.social to the "diagnosed way later than I should have been" #ADHD club. The meetings do not start on time and none of us know where our membership card is but we do have a lot of snacks.

A Junji Ito coloring book feels like a metaphysical trap of the highest order. #junjiito #shelvedbygenre #itwasmadeforme

@ckunzelman.bsky.social @ztul.bsky.social Very much enjoyed the Lisey's Story episode that just dropped - I'd been waiting to see what you would have to say about it and enjoyed your takes. I'm about to write a damn essay about the book myself, apologies in advance...

How do people with multiple social media decide what goes where? I keep thinking I should engage more here but damned if I know what to say that I wouldn't enjoy saying more on tumblr. I got off twitter ages ago because I only used it for complaining and that was cathartic but...not productive.

COME CLEAN WITH US. HEED THE SIREN CALL.

Lord I hope I'm doing this correctly, I don't know what quote post is, but I am positive that Foodieverse Steve not only met the Michelin Man, Bucky dug up a photo from their childhood of Steve in costume as the Michelin Man and made Steve get it autographed.

Time to redo my website, and I'm taking the opportunity to migrate off Wordpress. Looking around at templates on other sites, it appears 99% of them are for people who wish to obfuscate what it is the site is actually about. Maybe only spies have personal websites these days.

Brb rolling up sleeves to write, not a supernatural romance, but a Fortean Affair. (After I finish the current book anyway.)

Was just thinking it's a shame I wrote the Cryptozoologist Romance as a short story, but I realized this morning that doesn't mean I can't write Fortean Weirdos In Love and just use the short story's events as the end of the book. It's not like we don't know where most romance novels are headed.

Birds I have seen, according to autocorrect. Sign up for my newsletter here: https://tinyletter.com/rosemarymosco

Googling for the novel: -- baby gender in womb when? -- geology southern france -- welsh food I have gotten the odd ad for pregnancy products due to my research on that, but I'm hoping I've now confused the algorithm into trying to sell me on some kind of wild Cardiff-to-Cannes vacation package.

Unsurprisingly there are a lot of guys named Blake in Ohio.

Me looking a guy up: Why does his email address have 13lake in it? That's not his address. Me, realizing his name: Ohhh that's a fun way to spell Blake.

Dating app keeps trying to match me with a vibrational healer who side-hustles as a marketing consultant and Reiki instructor. Dating is bad.

Researching HOAs this morning. A homeowner's association whose meeting venue is listed on their website as The Karen House is a little on the nose.....

How I look posting:

in baseball i like when the catcher is throwing signs like "do this, pls do this" and the pitcher shakes their head like "absolutely not"

Well, here I am. Somehow, the slow death of Twitter, which I hated and never used, has meant I've signed up for TWO Twitter replacements. I don't think my new therapist is ready to hear about that.
