Fun fact: I’m allergic to salicylic & acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin). Therefore, acetaminophen was the only OTC pain med available to me for years. (Ibuprofen didn’t come to the US until the mid80s.) I get tension headaches easily. My kid, born mid 70s, is smart & not on the autism spectrum at all.

I'm better known for "that Minoan stuff," but The Wiccan Wellness Book remains my bestselling title. I wrote it because I was fed up with typical self-help books and wanted something different, something better. Details: www.lauraperryauthor.com/wiccan-welln... #book #wicca #pagan #PaganSky

♫ It's a beautiful morning♫ Today, I like gray skies and rain. We've had as much rain in the last 12 hours as we had in the last six weeks. August & September were *so* dry! And it's a soft rain, so it'll soak in.

Dear World, Sorry. Sincerely, Sane America

🚨NEW: Kerry Kennedy has announced Late Show Host Stephen Colbert is the recipient of the 2025 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award for his advocacy for free speech and speaking truth to power. REPOST to congratulate Colbert on this honor!

No cows? What’s McDonalds going to serve him then?

Just had an email convo with a book club scammer. Started last night & I managed to waste probably an hour or more of their time, replying “thoughtfully” & at length to my short messages - even after I’d told her (?) I don’t pay for reviews. Nine exchanges later, I got bored & shut it down. But fun!

Timeline cleanse.

Share your favorite black and white movie.

Ugh. Walked out the door & got a faceful of spider web. No spider, though, thank goodness!

As the movers were unloading the last of the furniture and boxes, it started to snow. My first night in the new house was postcard-perfect: snow lightly blanketing the outside and a roaring fire inside. From "Reinventing Herself."

Time to eat grandma. Save her with a comma or Simply savor her. ~Tom Murawski (from osbar.org) #NationalPunctuationDay

What…… what the actual fuck??

I didn’t expect to be (not a Christian, after all), but notice the neighbors are still all here. I agree with the bullshit call.

Ain't that the truth! The older I get, the more I ache. #gardening

We’re looking for some cover artists/designers for a couple of upcoming projects! But you gotta be real. •No AI •We have no interest in anime-style work, sorry We need someone comfortable illustrating plants and animals (especially birds). Please reply with a way to see your portfolio.

Happy Equinox, everyone!

I consent to all the most NSFW content people want to post. I can scroll past, mute, block, whatever I choose. We already have the tools, we can choose, that's the point.

We don't know *exactly* when they were born because they're rescues, so we picked 21st September as their birthday. Happy 12th birthday to my "little ones" (who aren't so little anymore)!

The match isn’t on TV so I have to keep up with the score in the corner of the screen. #COYS

From my FB memories-2019. Still so relevant today! (Also, I did find the reference. It's from "Food of the Gods: The Search for the Original Tree of Knowledge," Terence McKenna (c) 1992.)

This is worth every minute .. please listen, or read the transcript. Listening is best. Thank you @crow.house.gov

*taps foot impatiently* Waiting for local pharmacies to update their websites so we, both 65+, can finally get stuck without a Rx. (Not the first time GA has been backward.)

The “devotional podcast” I get. But WTF is a “Christian clothing line?” I wasn’t aware they wore special clothing. Does it have crosses embroidered on it or something?

I'm always nosy but if a friend was this old, I'd *really* be asking questions. How 'bout you? #historicalfantasy #urbanfantasy Ebook: https://mybook.to/ISEbook Paperback: https://mybook.to/ISPaper

Do I know anyone in the SC area who knows someone (or *is* someone) who wants to adopt two cats? I desperately need to find a home for my parents' two cats. I already have three, so I can't take them. They are boarding at their vet while I look, and I have to go home to PA in less than a week.

Oh, one last thing, #WomenWritersNet. When you post photos, be sure to put in alt text to help those who are vision-impaired. It makes a difference! (Go into settings>accessibility & turn on "require alt text" so you don't forget.)

A6. TBH, I don't pay a lot of attention to the gender of the author...I follow what interests me, personally. Therefore, I don't follow any strictly-women groups but look for authors in genres I like. Turns out most of them are women... #WomenWritersNet

A4. am text-oriented but am told photos are better so, on my daily posts, always include a picture. Don't know if it helps or not... I post at least once a day M-F but weekends are for me, unless something interesting happens. Looking forward to others' answers. #WomenWritersNet

A3. TIME. One has to be active on social media...especially if you're indie and doing your own marketing. That has to be worked into the day. Also, what to say? I don't post a lot of private stuff so have to think of interesting stuff that isn't all "buy my books, please!" #WomenWritersNet

A2. I look at social media as a connection: not just for friends (although there's that) but as a way to find new books to read. A recommendation from someone I "know" is better than an algorithm. As I live in the country with no library or bookstore close, that's important! #WomenWritersNet

A1. Here, plus I have a Facebook page (www.facebook.com/authordjmartin). FB because that's where I started & where I get the most interaction. Here, in place of Twitter. Not as much interaction but no algorithms to limit what *I* see. #WomenWritersNet

Waves hi to everyone at #womenwritersnet. Looking forward to the next hour!

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

SCAM ALERT: If by chance you get contacted by a group advertising themselves as the “Crazy Old Bats Book Club” who would like to charge you for reading your book in their book club, and who claim I am one of the Satisfied Authors, and furthermore give you an email address for me—it’s not me.

It me. #WednesdayWisdom

@wilwheaton.net just finished listening to “Ready Player One.” Was it weird saying your own name? 😀

Everything is bad, but books are good. Get a book. Read the book. Cherish the book. Finish the book. Tell your friends about the book, and leave a review of the book. Hold the book close. Listen to what it tells you. Do as it commands. Place it on the dread altar and let it guide your every choice.
