Things became clearer when I realized the “don’t tread on me!!!” people were speaking literally—so many are perfectly fine with awful things happening to anyone and everyone but themselves.

Last night I was told my celebrity doppelgänger is the woman from 50 Shades (idk who, haven’t seen it) and that it’s also the only chapter book they’ve ever read

Bored on a plane, AMA 🤍 I’ll be saving some for my next newsletter(s)—I like the idea of having more space to articulate my answers :) tellonym.me/evelyn.vale

Newsletter just went out—be sure to take a peek (especially if you wanna know about fun things happening next week only 🖤)

Knowing I’ve had a stressful few weeks, Holly planned a surprise cozy weekend away. Feelin’ loved 🥰 Back in the land of WiFi and cell service, I’ll be responding to all emails tonight (and writing tomorrow’s newsletter—stay tuned!)

Passenger princess reporting for duty 🤍

Attempted to use an app that crossposted my tweets to Bluesky for ✨efficiency✨ and I regret to report that it worked terribly 🫠 Back to the manual drawing board!

Stairway to heaven

It’s that time of year again—grateful to be warm and indoors, but aware that not everyone is as fortunate. I’ll be making my regular donations to the unhoused in Detroit, and if you’d like to contribute I’ve filled my Amazon wishlist with winter essentials. Any bit helps. 🖤

Love this! So helpful 🩵

Why yes I would love to be flown out to California, tyvm ☀️

Felt good about my fragrance layering last night—was in a fairly crowded elevator and someone said “okay, who in here smells *delicious*?”and the two men standing nearest to me said “definitely her” in perfect synchrony 😌

Due to holiday planning, end of year reflection, and wanting to read by my fireplace, I’ll be enjoying a slower pace for the rest of the year. I’m accepting one more December date - otherwise, I’ll see you in 2025 🤍

After some gentle & persistent nudging from lovers, I’ve finally made an Amazon wishlist for the holidays! Link in comments, and please note any bulk winterwear/hand warmers will be added to my next donation for the unhoused of Detroit. Give the gift of warmth, if you can 🧡

The biggest lil guy in the microbe museum 🖤

Forever a window seat kinda girl

Sweden has the most lovely people, but their airport personnel are consistently some of the rudest people I’ve ever encountered. It’s such a stark contrast it gives me whiplash every time 🫠

A few favorites from Rijksmuseum 🖤

Tonight’s vibe ❤️

En route to the kitty hotel and Batcha will meow nonstop unless I give him my hand to sniff and sing Folklore to him 😭

Had a ball on a bowling date with dinner at the jazz bar - that sultry saxophone set the mood juuust right 🔥
