I assume this happened after the announcement that Barnes and Noble will be acquiring them following the chapter 11 filing, but Books Inc is not accepting online orders at this time :/

I have a very loved up cat drooling in response to ear rubs

I get to go to the 49ers stadium for a work event tomorrow (YAY!) But it’ll be too hot to wear my vintage gold 49ers bomber 💔

It’s hard having so much more common sense than 80% of the people I encounter

60 years old and you don’t know how to zipper merge? No license for you if I was in charge

I am incapable of keeping it together during retirement send-offs

The crickets are SO loud at this winery venue and I love it so much.

I always wonder if when Jameson wakes up meowing and very hungry if he had a tiny undetectable seizure It might be, but it’s also hard not to pathologize everything with him

Every single day as an American

you otter not miss this 🦦 It’s #SeaOtterAwarenessWeek! Stop by the marine life area all week from 10:45 to 2:15 for otter-themed games and a chance to chat with zoo staff and volunteers, as well as our paw-tners from @elakhaalliance.bsky.social!

Not reformation doing a collection with the trad wife final boss Nara Smith

Apparently one of the women’s 49ers items that Abercrombie sold had “San Fransisco” embroidered, and it was only caught after they sold and shipped the jacket What a gaffe It made me double check the hoodie I bought for my brother

Cuteness PSA. + if you text them CARE they’ll send you more sea otters + self-care tips to help with anxiety

Band of Horses and Iron & Wine tonight and Disclosure on Sunday 🥳

Reading about the 3am earthquake and how the epicenter was by / at UC Berkeley. Those out of state and international students probably saw their lives flash before their eyes. My mom said it sounded like her roof was splitting open, and she’s ~15 miles from Cal.

we made it a month without a seizure 🥳

One of the great tragedies in my lifetime was when Tim Lincecum cut his long hair But at least he's grown it back (as of a fan pic from the city a few months ago)

Do not kys if you haven't gone to a pitbull concert in pitbull drag Just in case anyone needs an extra reason

Alice in Borderlands is crazy because they really only needed to kill off the injured guy (Doesn't count as a spoiler if it came out in 2022 and I'm being vague)

Thanks Google maps, definitely hitting the sperm bank after brunch with my family

Another retirement party next week and I will be crying once again bc it’s for a teammate who was so gracious and supportive of me early in my tenure as I transitioned from product mktg to product mgmt. I know I was an intimidated yet eager idiot, and they never once made me feel that way 🥲

I don’t understand how the Boy Genius on Alien Earth can be such a control freak and have this stupid expensive compound on a private island and have no fucking clue what’s going on under his nose I mean I guess I can but that seems… ridiculous

My daughter has been sitting on my desk chair for two hours And she’s going to stay there as long as she wants because I’m a selfless cat mom (My knees hyperextend while standing at my desk and I *will* pay for this later)

Did not cancel my signed Mona Awad Bunny sequel order from Blackwell’s so I am going to be very curious (and probably pissed) when I get my tariff bill. Assuming, best case, my $20-30 book will probably cost me $60.

Another day, another Comcast outage. At least this one was only 20 mins. I saw a tech working on the pole next to my apartment yesterday, so apparently they did not fix the problem :)

Finished book 74 of the year. In addition to Goodreads, I’m trying out Fable on @agb.bsky.social’s recommendation. I like the reviewing options there better - more granular ratings, tags for plot, setting, characters, content warnings, etc. But now I have to log books in two places 😅

I’m glad the statue didn’t give him a neck lift glow up, but still seems like they were a bit generous with capturing his gullet

PSA SF Bay Area (SF, peninsula, South Bay) Learned the owner of Oren’s Hummus is a raging Zionist & maga cultist File that away next time you’re craving falafel

My thirteenth reason: bought a can of cactus cooler and the machine spat out a Fanta pineapple That’s not the same

Democrats do one thing challenge (impossible)

Came into the office bc I haven’t been here in over a month I’m not required to go in, which is great, bc every time I get here I ask myself why

Just put my 4th set of aligners/trays in, which means i am once again anxious that I held my bite wrong during the 3D scan, and as such all my aligners must be wrong and I’ll be trapped well beyond March 2026

Bay Area: adopt these beautiful older kittens!!! (Together!) They can be your reason to live through the nightmare we can’t escape Apply at friendsofbearcatrescue.org Alternatively donate some coin if you can spare it 🤝

My beloved 😍💘

Rookie dress up day never misses 🤌

It is so hard to stay sane (and out of a deep, life-disrupting depression) with everything that’s happening rn We are literally living in hell and it’s getting worse with each day that passes

Every day the news is like vaccines will be illegal next week, homeless people to be euthanized, pedophiles are in control of all branches of government, everyone you love is going to get fired and/or deported, and then they cap it off with this

My cat likes to lick the cheese dust off white cheddar cheez-its and I have to agree with him: it’s the best part I’ve raised him well

Yesterday the pharmacy tech giving me my flu shot and Covid vaccine was like “normally I do one in each arm” So I can feel like a child punched me in both arms? No thanks

Tomorrow I’m going to start locking Jameson out of my bedroom when he’s eating breakfast to prevent him from hiding under my bed I can’t keep fighting to get meds in him every morning

Offered to talk to a European sales team at 7:30am if needed and they did not schedule a call Shoutout to them bc i am SLEEPY and I’m also in the last 25% of my book so I appreciate the extra time to read and coax my cat out from under the bed for meds (for the 5th day in a row)

Another season of Tyrique’s bad behavior 🙄 #loveislandgames

This employee at cvs was such a bitch when I walked up to the pharmacy for my COVID and flu shots I've had nothing to eat today so if anyone deserves to be a bitch, it's me, which I might be if they don't poke me in the next 2 minutes

I'm sure I've allowed it in the past but I never want my name publicly associated with donations – not out of shame, as I'm proud of what and who I support – but because we live in an era of witch-hunting under an authoritarian fascist regime

Hell yeah: Oakland public library allows 20 loans and 12 holds on ebooks and audiobooks

Tonight I learned (via TikTok comments) that under no circumstances should I ever google turf toe

Hello I'm looking for sympathy for the cystic zit that has been living on my cheek rent free for 16 days

Katya is in her weird girl lit era

Jameson is once again in a phase of hiding from meds I hope we get through it without a seizure 🤞

First day back at work started with waking from a nightmare where my landlord was threatening to wrongfully evict me Surely that means nothing about how my day is going to go, right?
