So. 6 months ago, our ice dispenser in our fridge stopped working. We called in a repairman, he took the thing apart and after much investigation, said it was either a part in the dispenser itself or the whole motor board but he wouldn’t know until he replaced the part in the dispenser and if it was

I incredibly hate having to do this, but AL decided Donna owed them $46k (she does not) & our bank froze all of her accounts, & also all of our joint accounts. On a Friday. She's about to start bouncing checks unless I pay everything but my savings is also locked. If you can help:

The jump scare when you get a random like on a comment you posted 6 months ago. 😳

My husband and child have demolished this bread. Literal crumbs are all that remain.

Sometimes, you just want to rant and get all your feelings out in a goodreads review. I do try to be kind but honest in my reviews and I understand writing a book is hard! But when a book whiffs it so badly, I need to get my thoughts out.

You know it’s bad when I start writing the excoriating review in my head and I still have an hour + left on this damn audio book.

This is one of the best series and series starters I’ve ever read. If I didn’t already own it, I’d buy it again.

When you start reading a much anticipated book only to realize the book does not hold up.

Once again, thanks to whoever recommended Toni Anderson to me. Because of them, I basically inhaled all 22 books in the Cold Justice series (which includes 2 spin-off series) in the past 2 months. I even read all the little freebie shorts set in this universe. I read kind of out of order but in a

FYI this was a 5 star banger and the Palace of Rogues is my favorite JAL series.

nurse matt from st denis medical should have a guest cameo on the pitt as nurse matt

Listening to Cold as Ice which is my last remaining unread Cold Justice book and wow, I really did power through all 22 books since February. They were INCREDIBLY compelling and clearly, I was riveted.

Next time you want to argue about why we’d pick the bear every single time, I present -

Reading an arc of Julie Anne Long’s Game of Rogues and her prose is unmatched. Just top tier chef’s kiss goodness.

Now that I am about to finish my Toni Anderson Cold Justice series binge, I’m gonna reread Ilona Andrews Hidden Legacy via audio. The narrator is new to me but I see the first 3 (+ the novella) have 2 versions, one with a dramatized adaptation. Anyone listen to both or either and have any thoughts?

I got into an argument with a woman while walking my dog today bc apparently expecting people to have their dogs on a leash is asking for too much. So, here’s me wishing happy Wednesday to everyone except her.

You all are talking about “the Pope is weak on crime” and I feel like the real gem is “should get his act together as Pope.”

I generally don’t listen to or read anything coming out of that man’s mouth but “the pope is weak on crime” is so fucking funny I can’t stop giggling.

I’ll never get tired of showing off my peonies

Well done Hungary!

My DH has the Masters on tv and there’s apparently a golfer by the name of Wyndham Clark and a man by that name could only have ever been a professional golfer.

Am I the only one who clapped when the parachutes came out?? #ArtemisII

Yes once again boring you with pics of my peonies in bloom but I am SO excited to have peonies in my own backyard!

Private equity really does ruin everything

I’m seeing comments in response to this that digital media is frivolous and books printed on paper don’t need “support”. So, here’s the thing. When I read with my eyes, I read almost exclusively digital bc I can adjust the font size and the brightness to suit my eyes. I’ve always known that you

Peonies in my garden!!

My review for The Paris Match dropped on smexy today: smexybooks.com/2026/04/revi...

Every morning I get up and I check the news and there’s just such dread EVERY SINGLE TIME like what did that heinous asshole do (or cause someone else to do) while we all slept?

Imagine devoting your life's work to perfecting the seatbelt and then the first time there's a serious accident every occupant of the car goes flying right through the windshield. This post is about the founding fathers.

I’m stress eating the TimTams that @tamaraamsdt.bsky.social sent me for Christmas. I’d been hoarding them but today felt like a day to just be like fuck it, I’m eating these TimTams.

People say parenting your kid gives you gray hairs but I’d posit that it’s actually parenting your aging parents that gives you gray hairs.

Ahhh it’s April meaning a deluge of Mother’s Day promos and sales alerts - would really love to find a way to opt out of all that in one fell swoop.

FYI: The Paris Match by Kate Clayborn is out tomorrow and is without a doubt, one of the best books I read this year. It was phenomenal and no one does character development quite like Kate.

Why yes, I am still doing my diamond art kits and listening to audio books.

Turmeric is not that difficult a word to say. Yes, this is in reference to to The Pitt. You have multiple south Asian characters on this show. Surely, you can learn the proper pronunciation for turmeric.

That 70+ year old UConn man baby really threw a tantrum on the court after his team lost. Gross.

This book, simply put, destroyed me. It’s the final book in the Guild Hunter series and I loved every word and I’m also heartbroken that Melinda, who introduced me to this series, won’t get to read this. She loved this series so so much. Fuck cancer forever and ever.

Randomly thinking about Sidney Sweeney stating she’s not here to talk about politics, she’s just here to make art and I continue to be baffled by the sheer obliviousness of that comment. If you truly think art isn’t inherently political, you have no business making it.

Starting my arc of Archangel’s Eternity, the last book in Nalini Singh’s Guild Hunter series, and not even 5% in, I’m already weeping. I don’t want to give anything away but it resonates deeply and god do I miss Melinda Utendorf right now.

My puppy sneezed and without pausing, I turned and said “bless you.”

If I had a dollar for every single time my spouse asked where something was while standing in front of the fridge or pantry and the thing was literally RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM, I would have a lot of dollars.

I know a lot has been said about Chalamaladingdong’s absolutely unhinged behavior whilst promoting that movie that went 0 for whatever at the Oscars but I’d like to take a moment and shout out Ryan Gosling. He is so charming and sincere and has on record given credit to Deidre Hall (Marlena on DOOL)

I just finished two back to back Berkley ARCs and one of them was exceptional (Kate Clayborn never misses) and the other one is emblematic of everything I find lacking in contemporary romances these days. I’m struggling to find the right words to explain this lack. It’s missing character and 1/
