Getting to show you all this cover and announce that VILLAIN is officially coming out in May of next year is such a joy and a relief i don't even know how to express it.

the cover for a book entitled Villain by Natalie Zina Walschots. the cover is a bright magenta with dark blue and teal lettering for the title, and the author's name is in yellow. there is an image of the silhouette of a woman carrying a cane, surrounded by the silhouettes of five superheroes.

This is the only job in the service industry I’ve ever had where my boss wasn’t just like “well, the customer is always right, you’ve just gotta put up with abuse, sorrynotsorry”.

Reason #47 I enjoy my new job: my boss has no problem giving the boot to rude clients and I got to be a fly on the wall while she told a chronic asshole we would no longer be serving him.

My partner and I listened to the album, and after a bit, he goes “… I think i would enjoy this if I couldn’t understand English”, lol

My review of Taylor’s new album is that when Beyoncé turned 35 she made LEMONADE.

I wouldn’t say I’m a fan of hers, but there’s usually at least one or two songs on her albums I can get into, but this entire one is just such a BIZARRE regression of her songwriting ability.

I can put up with a lot, but you want to treat service workers like shit when they’re trying to do you a favor? Ohohoho, I am NOT the one to try that with, ma’am. :)

After about a month at the vet clinic, I apparently have a client nemesis, based on how she has spoken to both my legit FANTASTIC coworker and I over the phone, and god help us both if I’m at the desk when she finally comes in for an appointment.
