Life moves so fast. Take a breath and slow things down, like a group of people walking five abreast at the airport.

Days since being absolutely bodied by the ending of a show: 0

Adolescence lived up to the hype, i gotta say.

You know what? Everything *can* be puppies and rainbows if you adopt a puppy, and we post your picture on a rainbow gradient background. Happy Adoption Day to Donner! We are so happy for this puppy and his sweet, sweet family! 💗🐶🌈

This book broke me into a million pieces and then put me back together again.
Death is the destination of us all, though we should all be so lucky as to love, and be loved, like Joe.

The Secret Stash. There was a TV show about it for a while, I bet the episodes are floating around online someplace, still

An image of a 4K copy of the movie Dogma signed by Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith

The advantage of ditching Amazon is while thinking of where else I could pre-order Dogma on 4k is I remember things like Kevin Smith owns a comic book shop in Jersey, and check there instead, and, as it turned out, I can get it signed.
My inner teen is very happy.

I suggested them to my own wife as well! She loved the Findlay books

This reminded me very much of the Findlay Donovan books in that the characters were constantly doing something other than what they should be and it stressed me out, but the book was far too good to put down.

A love letter to the later in life queers, the folks who always brushed aside those feelings or explained them away.

It's never too late, no matter how old you are

I am loving this series. Not much better than a librarian and a library ghost that solve mysteries together

I feel like it is a not-good sign of the times that every available copy of 1984 at my local library has a several month wait

Proud to be a Jeopardy fan today!

If you are anxious and sad about the state of the world, that's fine, and there are plenty of strategies for dealing with that. But I think you already know that drive-by online dooming isn't a strategy. It's selfish and adolescent. It's a contagion that only spreads the worst of you, not the best.

Anything is closer than Indiana

Protesting counts, voting counts. Don't discount your own efforts, my friend 💙

Feel the need to do something, but completely overwhelmed by the extremity of it all.
Thinking of designing an anti 🧊 crochet pattern to raise money to donate, but that seems like the wrong thing in this moment.
I'm just at a loss.

All week! Forever!
That is awesome, great work

i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.

That is called murder when they do that.

Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

The perfect book to start the new year

All of them for differing reasons

A perfect book to close out this shitstorm of a year.
Read by the author, which is always fun

A screenshot from the Libby app showing Your Favorite Scary Movie by Ashley Cullins

Easily one of my favorite books of the year.
I learned things I didn't know, and fell in love with a franchise all over again.

#booksky #horror

There are so many fun surprises in reading audiobooks. Today's fun surprise is that Your Favorite Scary Movie by Ashley Cullins, an examination of the Scream franchise, is narrated by Ghostface himself Roger L Jackson

A screenshot of an etsy shop header for The Geeky Knot, including a top banner advertising the coupon code EXTRA20 to receive an extra 20% off

Etsy has a great coupon today!
An extra 20% off my sale prices, and it comes out of their pocket, not mine!!

If you've ever had your eye on something from my shop, today is the day

A screenshot from the Libby app showing We Came To Welcome You by Vincent Tirado

Wow, what a read. If you love a suburban horror, this is right up your alley.
It is queer, and POC centered, always refreshing to find in horror

A bucket hat crocheted in Ace Pride colors rests atop a foam display head against a white background

Am I stress crocheting because the news is *gestures wildly*? Maybe...
But look at this ace pride bucket hat I made!!
#crochet #AcePride

I was wondering why my inbox was so full all of a sudden

A non traditional Santa hat with a white brim and pom, featuring a rainbow body instead of red, rests upon a foam display head against a white background

I figure somebody needs a queer Santa hat to wear and stir up the family Christmas 😆
