Ned, the little niddle in Georgie Karras and the Niddle of Nern. He may be a bit of a know-it-all but there’s no one better to adventure through worlds and time with. #booksky 📚💙 #fantasybooks #middlegrade

The image is of nearsighted, purple fuzzball Ned the niddle.

Never thought I’d hear my favorite baseball team #chisox name checked on my favorite podcast @theresthistory.bsky.social! Especially in an episode that included pedestrianism 😆

I’m so sorry I’ve been away a minute! I’m moving and I have FEELINGS about it. Is a new place fun? Sure! Is the packing and organizing and worrying about everything fun? Omg no. I’m an exhausted ball of stress and anxiety.

Please send chocolate.

You absolutely are not. As a fellow Midwesterner from your neighbor to the south, I could not have been happier to see that result. I honestly cried I was so moved.

Let’s build back that Midwest Blue Wall! 💙💙💙

My Yiayia was a Wisconsinite. She moved to Chicago at 24 when she married my Papou, but until her dying day told people she was from WI. I know she’s somewhere smiling big today and saying with a proudly and defiantly clenched fist “On Wisconsin!” 💙💙💙

Yesterday at work a vendor sent an email stating they were imposing tariff increases effective 4/28.

Today they sent a follow up “April Fool’s” 😐

Sir. Read. The. Room. #tariffs

Our feet are in the right place. Stand strong.
Boycotts are working. Progress is frustratingly slow and we are up against real evil, but we can make real change. #resist #boycott #standagainstfascists

Can you imagine being so unbelievably self-centered that you think it’s a good idea to hate on a piece of art that you have not read but has a title that doesn’t match up to your exact tastes? No? Me neither.

Must suck not to be able to tell when something just isn’t for you.
