Exceptionally proud that today we made three meals for two people at around $6 total. But also very aware that number only accounts for food and it’s the kind of thing I would have rolled my eyes at in my 20s

@samsanders.bsky.social listening to the latest ep of the Sam sanders show and rose’s concerns about securing a living & being able to have a family & eventually retire are so valid. But I can’t shake this very American instinct to prioritize other professions that are also trying to do the same?

I sent my recent writing to a friend of mine for review. And a week later she said “I almost just recommended a script for you to read but then I remembered, it’s yours” and that was honestly the best compliment

I have questions about the no-buy movements…are they actually helpful or do they just delay spending? Like, if I commit to not buying things on x day, doesn’t mean I’m Not going to buy it the next day because I need it? Am I missing something?

Here’s a fun idea I’d like to get started: let’s flood those free library stands with banned books.

“Recording released on April 14, 2017, a virtuosic song collection unified by its vernacular authenticity and rhythmic dynamism that offers affecting vignettes capturing the complexity of modern African-American life.”
So just write this album is fire, jeez. You getting paid by the letter??

We’ve talked about the genius performance. We’ve talked about the jeans. But what we haven’t talked about was the high level of big dick energy that man exuded through a television screen. Goodness, I had to open a window in February.

my partner made a crack about what the Super Bowl loss would mean for tswift and kelce. I turned to him and said “women don’t think that way.” Especially women as successful as her. Whatever their relationship is based on, she doesn’t depend on him for shit. Water under the bridge.

I *know* I’m late to Beyoncé bowl but, the look she gave the camera at the end of blackbird made me want to clean my room. Oooh boy was momma made right then.

#nai #questionsky I hope it’s okay that I ask a question too!

If you get to choose your ghostly outfit, what do you choose?

Invisibility or flying or teleportation?

Sunrise or sunset?

Best name for a fish?

I know this is old news (like Egyptian old) but adorning yourself in smells is the fucking tits.

I usually like kids. Except for today when I went off on a rant about all these “loose children” in the supermarket.

I feel like my cooking always comes out better when I make something with zero fucks

AHS hotel: why did people love this?

Last night I had 5 hours of interrupted sleep, followed by three minor to medium inconveniences and I was borderline non functioning. It’s moments like this when I think “it’s probably best that I’m not a parent”

I have a complicated relationship with writing. But, I started writing a thing today and I’m really excited. I’m also really scared that I’ll lose interest and not finish it and I’m superstitious about saying anything at all. But…this one feels different

Weird memory unlocked: the same English teacher who exclusively made us read things I hated, also made us reach huck Finn out loud. And then was surprised when a group of 10th graders couldn’t have a productive and sensitive convo about how to best read huck Finn out loud.

Maybe it’s not the time for this but, for as much money as I see going up in flames in CA, I hope they remember to take care of the non-millionaires before they rebuilt their hubris mansions.

Random confession: I worked through all of Covid. I’m thankful for it in a lot of ways, but there’s a part of me that has some serious fomo. Cuz I’d love an excuse to stay home and be weird and make sourdough

How does your instagram (or Facebook if you’re old like me) 2024 differ from your actual year?

Jumping forward to the audible gasp we both let out when that goddamned bitch dropped the necklace in the ocean. That’s fine. I’m sure your grand daughter wants for nothing. Dick move, rose.

I know what it feels like to be terrorized by a partner. I know what it feels like to love deeply. I know what it means and feels like to experience mass casualties. I thank god I’ve never had to make the choices that those very real people had to make on that very real boat. But I can imagine…

Also on a personal note: this movie sent my anxiety through. The. Roof. Like ice cold, clammy hands and feet. Curled up in a ball, breathing weird. Which leads me to my theory of unlocked emotions. Watching this as a kid, very black and white. But now that I’m old, and I’ve lived on this planet…
December 23, 2024 at 5:39 AM
But also worth noting that the only characters with any emotional complexity were the old rich white men? Surely nothing to read into there. Itsfineeverythingisfine. Incidentally, the google overlords tell me that the move passes the bechdel test. I think it does? But barely.

Cal DID love her. In a completely unacceptable and toxic and degrading way. But that was all he knew how to do. I still carry an unfair hatred of cal and billy Zane in general but honestly, kudos to him for bringing that level of complexity to a character who was essentially a cartoon villain
