If you as a performer cannot do Kendrick and Bad Bunny-level shows, I’m afraid at this point the Super Bowl is not for you. We have been spoiled with art.

Just wanted to say - I’m so glad you’re here and not on X anymore. I’ve been wanting to shut down over there for a while and I was kind of hanging out there for you and a couple of other people. Definitely now time to call it! Texas teachers ftw

Editor: β€œBut what is this headline supposed to MEAN? You make it sound like young people hitting the bottle is an inevitability that can only be held off so long as they become more and more aware of the state of the adult world…” *trails off*

Writer: β€œI totally agree. Headline gold. Whiskey?”πŸ₯ƒ

Tonight I celebrated with something to be very thankful for: a new episode of #LowerDecks.

Purple Data’s head in a bag bless us, every one.

Hey #authorsky and #booksky, a question for your collective expertise: if you had to boil down the process of publishing a book into steps or phases, how would you do it?

I can think of at least 5 phases of developing and publishing a book. Is there more? What about self-publishing? Please share!

To be very clear, as a teacher I don't want "time-saving AI tools."

I want time.

Friends, if you’ve never had the joy of reading Ray Bradbury’s glorious story β€œUsher II,” allow me to recommend it particularly at this time.

Funny story: I had bought the first book in the series ages before I saw the show, just bc i thought it looked interesting, but never started it. Later after binging the first season I happened on the book on my shelf; thought β€œwhat was this again?” Started reading and 🀯

The entire Thursday Next series by Jasper Fforde, the Indian Lake series by Stephen Graham Jones, and the Peabody series by Elizabeth Peters are my all time faves. The Scholomance series is phenomenal. And it’s just a cozy, but I do enjoy The Maid series as well.

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.
