Ghost We're hiring! Ghost is a proud non-profit organisation building open source technology for fiercely independent, professional publishers.

You know how I'm always talking about Ghost as this nonprofit platform that treats its employees well? (As far as they tell me, a user with a newsletter)? Well, they're hiring a product designer and a product engineer, both remote:

...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.

But Haunted House stayed just on the right side of No, Fuck These Guys for just long enough that I got hooked, and it's really good.

...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...

I sincerely hope that more will be offered beyond donating to abortion funds and calling legislators. there are so many other things to be done.

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.

Trump on fox news: “I don’t even dook in the toilet anymore. If it’s coming out it’s coming out. Who says it’s gotta be in the toilet?”

Unearthed clip of GWB from 2004: “Where I come from, dook always goes in the toilet.”

“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.

Reality show dropout / NASA chief Sean Duffey wants nukes on the moon. And if that doesn't knock Epstein off the front pages, they'll blow it up.

If some enterprising person could put together a rental directory based entirely on access needs, I would pay you so much money.*

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.

going outside can be stressful, but it's not as stressful as living your whole life in self-imposed solitary confinement.

The most polite quote I can pull tonight is from a young a doctor who simply said “I plead with any democrat to please stop this moderate nonsense”

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!
