...I can't say I shed a lot of tears about it or that I didn't roll my eyes at her being the One Faithful Sidekick.

...good but frustrating? Good but I never had much patience or sympathy for the kind of person who'd freak out about New Age stores or hold "alternative" October 31st parties in general, and I super don't now. Character in question didn't deserve her fate, of course, but...

Just finished "How to Sell a Haunted House."
First of all, absolutely recommend. This is my fourth Hendrix novel: Horrorstor was cool, Final Girl Support Group had a cool concept but I had trouble following the plot, and Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires...

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775.
I'd also call your senators/reps as well.

Seven-season spinoff about Charlie's freight business when. Perhaps one episode he is kind and patient with someone. Perhaps in another episode he is a good listener.

Anybody globally observing Americans, nobody has has to weep for us because America sucks & is the reason a lot of people all over the world are in even worse situations, it's fucking terrifying & freaky here for us. So that's why we're like this.

Life skills tip. If you don't know about the bucket flush, you need this as a life skill. If your terlet broken and won't flush, you can just take a bucket of water and flush it. Just pour it in the bowl and everything will flush. Not a cup, but a bucket.

“If it’s really that bad just go to the ER” is not the helpful comment you think it is.
Yes it is that bad. But if we went to the ER every time our symptoms flared, we would literally live there.
That’s chronic illness. We have to learn to tolerate the intolerable.

it's probably fine how AI is rapidly making people not trust anything they see, surely this won't have calamitous long term effects on civilization

As a reminder, when trans women got together to create an all-trans women team and then played against another all-trans women team, the usual suspects complained because that day the field could have been made available to "normal" people.

Honestly, I don't think we could do any further harm to the timeline at this point. It'd be like putting peanut butter in your hair to get rid of bubblegum. Might as well chance it!
