I am "just skipped out on getting tickets to a concert I really wanted to go to because it only has standing room only seats available" years old. Sorry Fitz and the Tantrums, I need a seat and $300 chairs at a table in the back is too steep for me.

Audiobook people who don't want to give their $$ to Bezos you should switch to Libro.fm. You choose an indie bookstore to support and its the same price per month as Audible. Teachers can get educator accounts which give free books and ARCs as well. libro.fm/referral?rf_... #booksky

In the spirit of transparency, I did not complete my WHM bingo board. However, I am only short one spot, which I intend to complete this afternoon. I am happy with the support I did give and hope to inspire others to try and complete a row of their own, even if it isn't March.

Keeping myself honest on my Women's History Month bingo card. Just ordered a new book on @bookshop-org.bsky.social supporting a debut female author as well as a women owned bookshop in Fort Worth. No Amazon, No Target only small business and business that supports small business.

My millennial brethren. If you haven't had an MMR booster since middle school, you can go and get an updated one from your doctor. With all of the Oregon Trail diseases on the comeback trail, this is a little thing you can do to help with herd immunity in your community.

I usually do this in February for Galentine's Day but I wasn't in that place then. I remixed it for #womenshistorymonth. I'm planning on a blackout bingo board but even a single row will help women in and out of your community. #booksky #Libsky

I'm beginning to believe that the Matrix was right, 1999 was the pinnacle of human history. I would be perfectly content at this point to keep reliving that year on repeat and let the aliens use my body as a battery.
