This is Archie. He's deaf and doesn't hear when his humans get home. Luckily, his little brother Frankie lets him know with a gentle nudge to make sure he doesn't miss the moment. 14/10 for both (TT: melissamilne)

One under-appreciated aspect of ADHD is that when you ask people random questions to figure out a gift for them, there is little to no follow up because they are used to you coming in hot from left field.

Writer pals, as we venture into “best of” list season, remember to focus on your other accomplishments.
That new draft, the books you’ve read to hone your craft…
Maybe the new thing you’re doing outside of writing (these are so important!)
Zero in on what you can control, and keep your head up. ❤️

With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness.
Housing, food, healthcare—it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

Indie bookshops care about your community because they are a part of your community.
And while there are mega retailers out there trying to convince us that we don’t need these small businesses, they could never do what indies do.
