A’ja Wilson said:

A’ja Wilson’s 2025 Pride cake reads “let’s get one thing straight yall aren’t”

The cake is piped with rainbow rosettes and super gay decorations around the edge: two pairs of scissors, frooties candies, two black cats with intertwined tails, and a limp-wristed SpongeBob

A’ja Wilson’s 2024 Pride cake is pink with rainbow ribbon designs on the corners. It reads “hooray you gay” and features two pairs of glittery scissors, and tiny disco balls

Everybody ain't for everybody, I get that.

I'm certainly not everyone's cup of tea.

But if you can't appreciate what we're seeing from A'ja Wilson, you don't love the game like me.

I love how gently my wife is like “Why don’t you relax for a second, darling, you don’t look like you’re quite at peak energy” when what she really wants to say is “SIT DOWN! You look like you’re about to fall the fuck over.” #LongCOVID

Built my career on social media, met my wife on social media, met most of my best friends on social media, plus all the cats.

Celebrate prime day by buying my book from Bookshop dot org (with free shipping and a little discount) or your fave indie bookstore.

Fuck Jeff Bezos, books don't need him.

Bookshop dot org: is.gd/iMcYEA

a book, with a blue cover and gradient red to yellow font that reads the dad rock that made me a woman by Niko Stratis. it's sitting on a wooden tabletop, behind it are records and a lamp and whatnot.

You made it halfway through the week *and* we still have free shipping? Sounds like the perfect time to treat yourself to a new book and support indie bookstores in the process. 📚

Wife: Fuck the Yankees!

Me: Hey maybe let’s don’t yell “Fuck the Yankees” with the windows open.

Wife, louder: FUCK THE YANKEES!
