I had a biscoff latte today & I will be thinking abt it for several days

Babe! Your Hoopla downloads!

Also?! Viola Davis & James Patterson wrote a book together?! Please tell me someone else 1) knows WTH in talking abt 2) is equally as confused as I am

I'm at 28 books for the year including an adorable picture (Seoul Food) book & several rereads I'm desperate for a 5 star read that's not a reread - I had 2 in January. I also had a 1⭐️, a 2 ⭐️ & a -7 this month. Hopefully my worse book of the year is behind me

EmptyNetters is a hockey podcast that jumped on the Heated Rivalry bandwagon. They were exposed for shitting on the show in private texts. They’ve recently been posting about the brilliance of the U.S. (not women) hockey team. Rachel Reid’s next book is about the toxicity of hockey podcasters. 👀 📚💙

Coworker just got the right one on the wrong day & i embarrassed her & I don't care. Shutting up is free Leaving me alone is free Minding your business is free

Can't turn off your reposts & I'm FULL to the brim with NOPE so welcome to Muteville. Population: You

The Cubs winning the World Series in 2016 broke the seal to Hell & that's why everything turned to shit Seriously felt like s4 of Supernatural fr fr

Do you guys know whats a good song youtu.be/XVwi2VF7_R4

Wait got another one! I'm tired of ahole MMC who only like the FMC. And she sees NOTHING wrong with that Also I'm done with heroines who also don't like women. Get your internalized misogyny & go back to the 80s. This is also prevalent in cozy mysteries but that's a convo for another thread

These are all voicey mysteries. Which happen to be my fave thing. I'll also add One Death At a Time - Waxman Very Dangerous Things - Lauren Muñoz Chef's Kiss - Jarrett Melendez (this is NA rom) A Curious Beginning- Raybourne

Update to add my niece convinced me to watch Souleater & i would both kill & die for those kids

If you need things to do tonight? I had lots of suggestions

Indigenous women can love someone other than a white man. If a love triangle can be solved with polyamory or something gay, do that instead. Interracial relationships don't need to include white people.

Wait You're emailing me on 24th telling me you need a response by 27th & this is a first contact?

LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

Also if it's a romance - and not say adventure with romantic elements- make ONE book Got ppl trying to remember the order of your trilogy/quartet of the same couple?! GTFO

I GASPED in every language known to the universe- even the ones they speak on former planet Pluto Friends to lovers was my jam! I'm gonna say that a lot of authors write enemies to lovers but don't have the range Most Forbidden Romance glorifies abuse of power & i hope the authors get therapy

If you wanted BBC/BAFTA boycott opportunities because they'll censor anti-genocide messages but not anti-Black slurs, cancelling a Britbox sub would matter as it's a subsidiary of BBC Studios. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_Stu...

We're fundraising for public libraries again! 📚This week, when you donate $15 USD or more to your public library, friends of a library organization, or the @amlibraryassoc.bsky.social, you'll receive a free audiobook credit 💓 Last year, we raised $55,000. How much will we raise this year? ⏬

In Illinois, you have to complete 1500 hours of training to become a cosmetologist. Good to know that ICE gives you a badge and a gun and sends you out to kidnap people with 20% of the training hours a nail tech gets.

I'm once again annoyed by people, places & things

The fact that it would have never been allowed to air on a US broadcast even with a 5 second delay, but the BBC kept it in? Miss me with all those claims that the UK is less racist.

You, an individual, cannot "fix" the whole world. You can act at the scale of your life. You should act at the scale of your life.

EVERY. WORD. OF. THIS. 👇🏻

I'm at the library for a 10am excel class. This is the nerdiest thing I've done in a while and I'm EXCITE!

The deadline to file an Anthropic claim is fast approaching. Here’s everything you need to know before the March 30 cutoff:

Who is on charge of my impulse control?

I have one friend that we routinely send each other lengthy unhinged voice notes - we also text. It's not for everyone but it works for us

So there's a black girl scout troop trying to raise money to to to Europe but they aren't close to their goal as of yet. Please share this and buy some cookies if you can digitalcookie.girlscouts.org/scout/reagan...

This author isn't for me. I'm annoyed by her & her editor for choices that don't make sense Lady is nervous & worried abt everything but you have her answer a knock at the door at 3am AT THEIR RENTAL CABIN IN THE WOODS. Bad guy rushes in to kidnap teen girl & neither mom or the girl screams?!

lol shut up loser

Oh so this is what happens when folks take uprisings seriously, don’t blame the victims, and actual parliamentarians step up rather than shift it to “how” the populace rises up .

I'm reading a book that is currently so full of Dumb Bitchery that I'm actually YELLING at the heroine You just found a dead body. Why do I have to remind you to call for help?! Then you discover no cell service so you tell a 10 year old "stay here why i go for help" BITCH TAKE HER WITH YOU

Also every time Snoop comes on I turn it off. Literally swear a blue streak & peace out

I literally cried when she win. I've watched her for so long

I Carry A Torch For You*

REMEMBER: All the "Don't use em-dashes" "don't use rule of three" advice because it makes your writing "look like AI" is because they stole actual writers work, and their "predict the next thing" stuff just simulates what WE FUCKING DO. Keep writing well. Use every style and trick you have. Fuck AI.

very good explanation of why not to feed images into an image generator, especially when memorializing children after a devastating tragedy. better not to use image generators at all.

Local students from the two local high schools walked out against ICE yesterday, meeting up in our town square. This sign is so damn good.

Ukrainians are uniting in solidarity with Olympic skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych after he was disqualified for wearing a helmet with images of Ukrainian athletes killed during Russia's invasion. n.pr/4rqEdSs

Virgo & yes allllll day

It was a reread but I was still gutted when That Part happened. Oh Murderbot 🥺

WTF

Booooooo. I'm seeing the chatter & all i can say is fuck those guys & fuck the ISU

wild AI story from the Olympics ice dancers were told to use songs "in the style of the 1990s." One Czech pair tried using AI to pump out a song to skate to, but their AI bot fully plagiarized "You Get What You Give" by The New Radicals and they had to change it sports.beehiiv.com/p/olympics-d...

Black people who didn't enjoy the Bad Bunny show can't be trusted.
