Looking for MORE books to pair with your favorite beverage? I made a second post about it!

β€œYou got beep-beep for me?” I got beep-beep for ya, @shanemadej.bsky.social. (I am so sorry about that parasocial relationship.)

Yes! That and β€œBye ghosts, I love you.” My husband should feel threatened by Shane. (Actually, no, he’d fight me for him.)

I constantly say β€œit’s me, ya boy” despite very much not being a boy.

OMG I love it so much. My favorite genre of YouTube videos is β€œtwo guys who are silly gooses.”

I don’t like that triple phrases are a sign of AI because I like to use them (e.g. β€œIt’s magical. It’s mystical. It’s log.”) πŸ’™πŸ“š

Review: β€œBurnout” by Emily and AmeliaΒ Nagoski Women carry a lot of stress. Work, parenting, our own health, trying to look pretty enough to be acceptable to society...no wonder we sometimes hit a wall. And I can't even imagine what it's like for women of color, queer women, or disabled women. To accompany me during my workouts, I downloaded the audiobook Burnout: The Secret to Solving the Stress Cycle…

Are you a woman experiencing burnout? Good news...I've found a book you need. Check it out on my blog!
