Someone responded to me about “not indulging your children’s pickiness” and there were a bunch of words after that but I’ll never know what they were because I blocked them mid sentence. Read the article.

Wow!
@mychal3ts.bsky.social
is an incredibly kind and supportive person! I had a few brief conversations with him on Insta about my book and I couldn’t think of a better person to host such a seminal show as Reading Rainbow.

I have a message to pass along from my brother, exact quote: In other useless news: I need to find a way to let Scalzi know that he needs to ask his publisher/cover artist to put "Warning: this writer has the ability to break all known ways of keeping time" labels on all of his books. 😁

This Saturday I'm participating in a Heart Walk to help raise awareness and funds for the American Heart Association. I was diagnosed with genetic high blood pressure at the age of 30, so this is near and dear to my heart, literally.

Under $100 to my barebones move goal. An added $500 to that would help pay for storage for the temp move that comes first.

To spell some shit out unambiguously: fascism requires domestic abuse to propagate itself. Demands it. There is no way to humanely teach your children that might makes right. There is no way to gently love a spouse you think is your genetic intellectual inferior. These are inextricably linked.

It’s COLOR TASTE TEXTURE’s 2nd Book Birthday!! Thank you for everyone who has purchased my book. Its creation was such a journey and it holds so much importance to me. I went from living in a homeless shelter to having a Big5 contract within the span of 2 years, and I couldn’t be prouder of my book.

Recently watching through The Big Bang Theory and I've decided who my favorite character is... Zach. Sure he isn't all that smart and he's really goofy, but he's also kind to everyone and cheers them on.
