This was a really helpful read for me. I often find myself ferreted away in a depression nest that snowballs into executive function paralysis, and this book opened my eyes to giving myself grace and not forcing myself into a poorly fitting hole of expectation. #booksky bookshop.org/a/123582/978...

Calcifer the Porch Skeleton and his Skeleton Pals are ready for #Pride! 🌈🏳️‍🌈🌈🏳️‍🌈 (Yes, he's missing a leg... We don't talk about that.)

THE PEST COMPANY CONFIRMED IT WAS THEIR REP, AND HE'LL BE RETURNING THE SIGN. LOLOLOLOLOL SUCK IT, YOU STUPID FUCK! Today is a supremely good day.

Happy Pride Month, folks!! ❤️ #pride

Folks really better learn not to mess with perimenopausal millennial ladies with Google Fu skills of the gods and pettiness that has no bounds. I found the company and contacted them directly. They're looking into it and will contact me once they make a decision about how best to move forward.

🤣

A solicitor just stole the "no soliciting" sign from my front porch, and I am *so mad.* Police report has been filed (99% sure nothing will come of it) and a new sign has been ordered. Solicitors like this are the worst of humanity.

Just finished watching Send Help with Rachel McAdams, and I *loved* it. Sam Raimi's special brand of absurdist horror is majorly my vibe, and my current level of misandry made this movie entirely up my alley. 9/10, watch it on Hulu if you have sub! #sendhelp #movie #rachelmcadams

You know something I'm really proud of myself for? Not raking leaves last fall. This summer, my yard is *filled* with lightning bugs because of it, and all y'all screaming over curb appeal can shove it where the lightning don't glow.

My #Pride outfit is nearly complete! Now that TN has tried to negate Pride Month with "Nuclear Family Month" (ew, gag), I'm fixin' to be intolerable come June. Even moreso than normal. 😘😉😛🌈

Thanks, Vonnegut. 💜

I read fast, but An Ordinary Sort of Evil has me slowing down. Once done, I'm staring down another wait for the next one, & I simply cannot. Kelley Armstrong: I adore this series. But if the urge to write more Mallory and Duncan strikes? I wouldn't be opposed. bookshop.org/a/123582/978... #booksky

I'm not typically a cuteness aggression person, but my God do I want to squeeze her SO hard.

Every once in a while I remember the time I performed at my very conservative, evangelical high school as an alum and accidentally said "crap" in front of the kids and their parents.

My sister officially moved out of the house and into her RV over the weekend, and now she's several states away, living her best life. I'm happy for her, but I also miss my Sissybug and her pets. @jujujuniper.bsky.social 🥹

Listening to this today while I work, and whooooo buddy... I mourn what we could have had. America, we dropped the ball in a BIG way. I'm so sorry, @kamalaharris.com. 😞 #vpharris #presidentharris

I need one brave journalist to stand up in that room and loudly ask, 'HEY, IS HE SLEEPING?' so that *everyone* hears it.

The actual fuck is "underbabied?" Ffs.

After having over 200 unread emails in my work inbox, this feels very good. #emptyinbox #worklife

That feeling when you go to give your dog a smooch on the snoot, and she already has her tongue out, so you accidentally kiss the back of her tongue.

I live inside this purple blob. Tennessee Republicans just passed, in a special session today (May 7th, 2026), a map that slices Davidson County into 3 congressional districts and drowns each piece in rural red counties. This is what "your vote counts" looks like. Cool, cool, cool... #tnpolitics

May the Fourth Be With You (and also with you) #starwarsday #spock #startrek #maythefourth

Look. I'm an old, so I don't really understand what a #Clavicular is or why he's even popular, but I've never seen him look happy in any of the photos/articles that have shown up all rogue-like on my socials. I guess he's proof that money doesn't buy happiness or substance.

Hyacinth and Zinnia have flown from the nest, but I managed to sneak a peak before they left. Birds grow up so fast! 🥹 #babybirb #babybird #mourningdove #birdwatching

Oh hey. It's May! You know what that means! My entire body is one giant eczema rash, and I hate everything. I just need to submerge myself in a giant vat of colloidal oatmeal until summer is over.

Little Hyacinth and Zinnia are waiting for Mama Petunia or Papa Aster to come back with food. #mourningdove #birb #babybird #bird

We have a baby birb!!!!! #mourningdove

I've been listening to Adrian Bliss's The Greatest Nobodies in History on my way to work, and it has been super fun. Bliss's quippy voice and unique storytelling are extremely engaging, and I recommend you have a listen if you like offbeat history. #reading #booksky bookshop.org/a/123582/978...

Say what you will about this godforsaken state, but you can't deny that Tennessee is goddamned gorgeous.

Absolutely loved this book. Granted, this is set in Baghdad, Iraq and not Iran, but it's so applicable to what's going on right now. 10/10, recommended highly. bookshop.org/p/books/fran...

About last night’s scrambling from gun fire at White House reporters dinner .. Rep Jamie Raskin (D-MD) makes a critical point on CNN: “This is happening in schools across the country.. the kids have no resources to process their trauma”

I both love and hate that TMZ is expanding into politics. Like, don't get me wrong. It was a brilliant idea, and their skills are fine tuned for this sort of hostile, egomaniac-driven environment. But using TMZ as a credible source feels... wrong to me. Send help. #tmz #news #politics

Is cotillion still a thing? I went in middle school, nobody talks about it anymore, and honestly? Good. It was profoundly useless and I want my Saturday afternoons back.

Presented without comment

UPDATE: I did, in fact, read the HECK out of it, and it was a great time. I loved getting to meet some St. Olafians! #goldengirls #murderbycheesecake #booksky

So does everyone have a massive crush on Christina Koch now, or is it just me?

A mourning dove built a nest in my front porch planter and I am choosing to interpret this as the universe personally apologizing to me. Her name is Petunia. She pays no rent and has full diplomatic immunity.

i think i lost my motivation somewhere between lunch and existential dread

I'm so pleased that the new #Taskmaster season (series? I don't even know anymore) is on. @kumail.bsky.social is living up to every single hope and dream I had for him with his special brand of silly chaos.

Y'all, I am fixin' to become an ENTIRE MENACE come June. Tennessee is about to see how feral I can get when bullshit like this gets passed. www.advocate.com/politics/sta...

I've reached the age where I actually find some of the Golden Girls fashion to be cute, comfy, and overall highly wearable. #millennial #fashion #tv #goldengirls #nostalgia

I feel like the Artemis II returning home safely after such a successful mission is one of the only times, as a Millennial, I have seen something genuinely good happen on the worldwide stage in my lifetime. We needed a win. Now back to it, folks!

Does anyone else get super emotional watching videos of the Artemis II launch, or is it just me and my perimenopausal ass?

The number of people legitimately doubting the #spaceship launch because it curved has me so worried for our future. Y'all, I'm hella dumb. I hated science and math in school because my brain just doesn't get it. BUT even I know that rockets have to curve. #nasa #moon #flatearth #artemis

Y'all. It has been #aday. From awful personal news that I'm not currently able to share publicly, to a c-suite shake-up at work, all the way to the dumpster fire that is our Government... I just want to cry, and then sleep for 100 years. I'm so, SO tired.

NASHVILLE Handmaids getting love across 🇺🇸

Oh, y'all know I'm about to read the HECK out of this! #murderbycheesecake #goldengirls #booksky #reading #cozymystery
