Hillary Duff being the next late 30s queen to make us some millennials comeback bangers is making me unreasonably happy

Hillary Duff healing me wasn’t on my 2025 bingo card.

I love drawing I love art I love making things

White cop parked next to where I pulled up at a stop light, motioned to me to roll down my window. Cop: What kind of music is that Me: Sorry officer, was it too loud? Cop: No. just, what music? Me: Rhianna? Cop: Good tune. WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED TO ME??

gonna be eating muff all weekend

🤬🤬

Spent the evening playing Portal 2 with my teenager 💕

A perfect drink.

I've been reposting everyone replying to this post with their own ACA (and sometimes employer!) price hikes. Feel free to add yours. There is some comfort in knowing you aren't alone and knowing we'll all be voting on this issue in a year. Chuck Schumer should be chucked out. #chuckchuck

It absolutely breaks our heart that a mother with a crying child in the background, calls for a simple can of formula, and almost ever church rejects her. Wtf is wrong with these people? It's what, $40-50? Each person working in the church pitches in a few bucks and get that kid fed ffs.

That church and formula situation ain't surprising. At all.

Thinking about the time I hatched some eggs in an incubator. Got a knock on the door a few days later. A kid stood there and asked, “Is this the house with the baby chickens? I was told I could see them.” He was told right.

The rest of the year is almost entirely unbooked, which means I’m writing, and writing, and writing.

I know several people who worked on this rollout. They were really proud of it.

Episode 3 of WELCOME TO DERRY ratchets up the horror. As Nigel Tufnel would say, "This one goes to eleven."

Had a wonderful morning writing up in Parkville with a couple of dear friends from my K-State days ❤️

Having a snack day with your besties is a 10/10 experience. 💕

2026 Bookish Events: -March: AWP -April: Hard Rock Author Event -May: SaSSy in St. Louis -July: Writers on the River -August: Romance Rendezvous Book Blast I am *excited* 😁

*slams laptop shut until Monday*

I’m so excited for my sixth year attending Romance Rendezvous Book Book Blast!

#Bookvember 4 In 6th grade we did a unit on medieval life, and I saw this book and became obsessed with it. All of these cross section books are amazing, especially when you read that Stephen Beisty did all of the work free hand. Not even a ruler, y'all. 👀 #Books #BookSky #WritingCommunity

!!!!! “What Would Really Happen?” is scheduled for Saturday at AWP!!!! 💕 Super excited about this.

The full #AWP26 schedule of events is now available! AWP is thrilled to host such a wide variety of events, and we look forward to another fantastic conference in 2026! Check out the more than 350 events taking place online and in Baltimore this March. conference.awpwriter.org/Conference_S...

It’s okay to be glad that restaurants are doing stuff like this AND absolutely furious about the utter failure of the United States government.

it's open enrollment time. which for those outside of the US, you get to pick a health plan by guessing how many times you're going to hospital in 2026

Mask up for sickness prevention, mask up for privacy, mask up to evade facial recognition training on CCTV cameras, mask up is the future it seems

I asked my repair guy what he was doing after work tonight. The conversation ended with him showing me a video of him playing Beth by Kiss on ukulele. 10/10 interaction.

Being poor has saved me once again.

Seeing Comet Lemmon in #lfk tonight was 🤌

My plan to take PTO on a random Tuesday in October to do *nothing* has been a success.

I love reading something I wrote months or years ago and seeing glimpses of how I felt at that time.

Book 107 finished over the weekend. Good book, but not sure I want to continue the series at this time #booksky 💙📚

I just really love characters who let out a breath they didn’t know they were holding.

i love the horror genre that is just “grad school” #booksky

Jaley Hoyt is my little sister! 💕

Best evening with @rmccarthyjames.bsky.social ❤️

Oh wow

No Kings, Overland Park, KS

From today's No Kings rally in Overland Park, KS. Great turnout, even greater than last time.

Coming to the No Kings protest at JCCC this weekend? Here‘s what you should know! (There‘s more info in the comments too!)

Calling all Johnson County cities: Overland Park, Olathe, Leawood, Shawnee, Lenexa, Merriam, Fairway, Gardner, De Soto, Bonner Springs, Edgerton, Spring Hill, Westwood, and Roeland Park! We’ve teamed up with coalitions across the county to bring you one big No Kings Event Saturday, October 18th!

Best of luck to everyone attending a No Kings rally today. Stay safe and remember, everyone saying you should smash some windows is an undercover cop. Don’t give an inch.

Darcy Coates has written some really wonderful stories!

Rest in peace, Mary. You’ll always be my zombie queen. The world lost a wonderful writer this week.

Take a picture of yourself at the No Kings rally. Print it. Put it in a frame. Your grandchildren will speak about you for generations to come. You took a stand against fascism. You stood up for democracy.
