Just finished ALL BOYS (moving memoir), moving onto LINCOLN (have already gone down the rabbit hole on Willie Lincoln who died during Abraham’s presidency), while Munro, Mary, and DOG are coming for a #readcation #books #reader #bibliophile #writer #author #book #lincoln #alicemunro

Abraham's eldest son, and only son to survive into adulthood, Robert Todd Lincoln- was present or nearby for 3 presidential assassinations. Bizarre, and I can understand his sense of being cursed because of it. #book #writer #bibliophile #reader prologue.blogs.archives.gov/2010/10/27/t...

This— I stand with Harvard

Signed, reposting. Support our libraries.

Just a little FYI....

As it turns out, the only item I addictively buy is books. I currently have $159 credit at the used bookstore, and I feel FAN-TA-STIC about that. Everything else can go in my Goodwill pile... #bibliophile #books #booklover #writer www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/w...

I know, I know. Irony. #bibliophile #booksky

How is it the worst human rights, racism, animal abuse, and misogyny stories ALWAYS begin with, In Florida…?

Who doesn’t love family portraits?? Papu and Little Orange

I mean, it’s Shelley, and the poem is powerful and viscerally on point in its meaning. Yet I can’t deny thinking of Walt and Hank when rereading it. #BreakingBad #bestwriting #bestshow #vincegilligan

When fragile, weak egos are bruised….

The environment, diabetics, and integrity may die, but hypocrisy is alive and well in the new America. #trump #jdvance

Exciting removal of a rattlesnake from our backyard— done humanely and relocated far away from people. #snakes #desert #arizona

Just finished reading Jo Nesbø's The Snowman which led me to looking at the male writer's tendency to write female characters only in terms of their desirability, their breast description, and the ubiquitous clinginess of clothing. 🙄 #writer #booksky #books www.boredpanda.com/male-authors...

This is utterly remarkable. I wrote notes like this, filled out disability forms (that so often had vague questions not relevant to the body part ((eyes)) that I was examining), and more crap that just weighed down my days. Employers do not trust their employees-that's what all the sick notes imply

Disgusting. This is when I wish #bluesky had an option other than a ❤️ to say I've seen this and I am appalled. #Blacklivesmatter This is the same group who had an argument about never pulling down monuments.... remember?

Ohmagod, this is so true. Admittedly, I do some Future Self journaling-powerful stuff. But looking back, I wonder how I managed all those insecurities that no one else saw, I never shared. I also have a record of every boy I've ever had a crush on. #journal #writer #author

This post literally hurts my brain. I'm unable to unroll my eyes at this dude, and wonder in what way he's a "keeper" after this description of his ridiculous argument. #irrational

Am hoping to do the 5K in La Jolla in May. Looks like a beautiful run. I'll see if my running quad (3 other gals and me) would care to do a lovely coastal run. #running #5k #LaJolla lajollahalfmarathon.com/san-diego-ru...

WOWEE- dumping up in Flag. I crave wandering in the #flagstaff snow www.skylinewebcams.com/en/webcam/un...

Jaw dropping

Considering... I'll have to see what's all on my plate, but give me another workshop, please.

Simply in love with this animal rescue in Yorkshire. They even built an Air B & B rental unit so you can watch the cows and sheep and goats and pigs.... #animalrescue #York

Funny how relevant Lennon's words and passion are today. Do we never learn from history?

This tickles me~ And, here in Phoenix, in the dead of 1,000 degree summers, people sometimes wear knit tuques.

Unbearable to watch. Such a brutal embarrassment.

I said my name backwards ALL THE TIME when I was a kid and in college. How did I overlook doing that with Armstrong's name????

Слава Україні! #славаукраїні

Hi. I'm hiring. You would be replacing 100s of people I literally just fired. And, even if I hire you, I might fire you a week later. That's what I do. So, wanna work here?

Open this door - I have eggs. Who knew how (nearly) universal our addiction to eggs is? I took a friend out for breakfast and I'm pretty sure the waitress ran a credit check before they started making our orders. #TheNewNormal #booksky #writer #eggs

We need this in our home, and I've asked Bristol to define 'silently.'

The men and their 40 pushups is equivalent to me telling everyone I finished reading James Joyce's Ulysses this year. #books #booksky #bibliophile #writer #writers #ulysses #booklover

I know it looks like a cartoon, but this is a real documentary on the happenings inside these four walls.

Everybody!

What the fork. I can not believe how far backwards we are CURRENTLY going.

Deal with the devil

Unbelievable

Conversation between my friend and me K:I brought you this soap-thought you’d like it! Me:Ohmagosh thank you! It looks delicious! K:It’s soap. My sister made it. Me:It looks so yummy. I love vanilla! K:So IT’S SOAP and smells really good. Me:I’m going to set it right here-we’ll have it for dessert.

I hate hitting the <3 to like a story when I really hate that story.

Yup.

Translation: What the hell is wrong with you people???

Such a brilliant summary of an actual answer to tired old debates between people of privilege.

Making sure I digest this article in full

George Orwell wrote the reality we are living in

😂

I did dust a few pieces of furniture.... as I was pulling books from their shelves.

Woohoo!! Time to polish up a short story that would be a good submission!
