Seriously! I don’t need “help” like that!
Nobody asked for this! We just wanted to be able to add images to Word docs without the formatting going haywire, have y’all fixed that yet?

Look, The Haunting of Hill House and House on Haunted Hill are both beautiful and delightful in their own ways.

Important information from the Richard Scarry book I picked up at the charity shop
Also, at least scam the correct author. I’ve gotten these clearly intended for other recipients about books I did not write. Like I’m sorry that Rando P Author III is criminally underrated but I ain’t them, soooo.
Just a double reminder--
Writers, this negging garbage was written by AI and designed to insult you, flatter you, dare you, and scam you.
Scammers, this is embarrassingly badly done. Quit it.
Sitting on the screen porch during a gentle thunderstorm: a thing I will never get tired of.
Yeah, “paid” in ARCs and thank-you’s only lol!
Shoot, this is just smart planning! (Honestly I’ve come to believe that when you find a style or brand you love, stock up, because that’s like gold. No other pressures or rationales needed.)

The reason many of the commentators don’t like Bluesky is because the infrastructure is set up in a way that no longer benefits them.

On Twitter it was always easier to gain an audience by purposefully saying things that upset people. Getting ratio-ed was a tactic.

Here, that’s much harder.
Well I figured out why the door to the chicken coop keeps breaking.

The uptick in “our book club wants to read your book!” followed by expensive fees to share with their members is absolutely wild.

There’s a shop in my hometown that only sells flags and I was sure it was a front because how can the market for flags be big enough to support a whole shop but there’s this guy so maybe I was wrong.
I didn’t have “discover a bat colony in a loose window frame at my parents’ house” in my plans for the weekend but here we are. (Yes bats are really cool no I didn’t come into contact with any of them yes I’ve already googled histoplasmosis.)
When you get out the big ladder for some home maintenance but notice there’s already a vulture circling. Great sign. Really great.
Don’t you love how nobody can be creepy like a kid can be creepy! 😂

Anyone who says a book is badly edited because there's like two typos really needs to give it a try from this side and see how they do.
If I ever had unlimited time, I’d make it 😂

things were better when the computer lived in its own specific room and you only went in there sometimes
I have been in transit for over 24 hours and have become a gremlin on one of the country’s last blessed interurban trains, hoovering Burger King French fries in the same clothes I wore yesterday. Say hi if you see me.
Honestly deeply disappointed I’m traveling home today and will miss this!!
