I’m ready to stay holed up in my house for the entire thing.

The Notebook is one of the very few times the movie was better than the book.
This place needs some Innocuous Discourse pronto. Quote this with a take that’s not political or aggressive

My new response to the people who knock on my door with unsolicited offers of free inspections and estimates for roofs, siding, windows, etc. - unless the work and materials are also free, it's a no. I'd like to also thank them for interrupting my workday to tell me how shitty my house is.

I counted 65 and some of my misses are embarrassing (my high school didn't include many classics). The later ones were interesting to see on here. I love the show but didn't pay attention to the specific titles unless they were brought up in dialogue. #BookSky 💙📚

Shapiro is not playing and I love it. I'm a PA resident and I voted for him, but I haven't been his biggest fan. But I love the emotion and fire he's showing here. More of that, please!
Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

So happy I gave up supporting Amazon January 1 of this year and haven't looked back.
Amazon could be planning to cut up to 30,000 corporate positions starting on Tuesday.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Many of Trump's supporters don't know about the things he's doing - the media they consume does not cover it. My super MAGA father rarely has awareness about stuff I bring up to him. We are up against a propaganda machine. I'm not suggesting Ds stop going on CNN, but we need them on Fox, too.

This story is INSANE and well worth reading. One of my favorite parts (and there are many) is that the DOJ spokesperson incorrectly spells "Lindsey" in her statement. As a journalism major, the whole thing is hilarious but for some reason, that aspect is the icing on the cake for me.
EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.
I glanced down at the message.
“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.
So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

I don’t understand the constant discourse on mass shooters’ politics. What difference does it make? Is shouting that into the void going to prevent more? Does anyone think those who believe Trump’s lies will listen to statistics proving him wrong? Can we stop blaming and start solving?

I was paying for my husband’s slushee at sheetz and a sign on the register warned that tariffs are prompting a 26% increase on Hershey candy bars beginning on 9/15. Obviously candy bars aren’t a necessity but what about that hike on things that are? I know I can’t afford that and I’m middle class.

I went to my little library to add some books and check the notebook because I really needed a pick-me-up. This was the only new entry. I am incredibly sad that someone would do this. Feedback welcome. #booksky 💙📚

Went to stock my little library (stewards can apply for free book opportunities!) with 2 new releases. Today’s notes were again very uplifting. My favorite: “little libraries save lives”. #booksky 💙📚

Dr. Google’s list of heart attack warning signs for women including a feeling or sense of impending doom so I guess my body began preparing for an eventual hear attack about 3 decades ago.

I visit my free little library frequently, especially on hard days. The notebook I have in it has notes from visitors - saying they love it, talking about books, etc. Today my favorite one just said “I hope your day is full of magic.” Love my fellow readers and book obsessed people #booksky 💙📚

I saw some hype over a debut novel - The Names by Florence Knapp and bought a used copy on PangoBooks. I’m 70ish pages in and so far it is crazy good - way beyond my expectations. Interested to know what other readers think of it. #BookSky 💙📚

My MAGA dad’s thoughts on Epstein shit show: he doesn’t think Trump is on a client list but that “he’s gotta do something”. But the bigger surprise was what he said next - “he can’t keep blaming Biden for everything. Biden, Biden, Biden. It just doesn’t make sense.” Hope springs eternal, friends.
