Ashley ✨

But also, as an O's fan, let's go AL East 🙌🏼

I'm rooting for the Jays tonight because I'm just tired of seeing the Dodgers in the World Series 😅

Thank you!! 😊

Finally updated my website for, I think, the first time in 2025 after making like a crazy person for some in-person shows over the summer. Will be doing updates once a month from now through November! #ceramics #pottery #handmade #shopsmall #womanowned

I'm obsessed with her 🥰

Took the most perfect picture today. Immediately meme'd it.

I wonder if the person who came up with nerds gummy clusters got inspo from cat poo in a litter box 🫠

What is wrong with me

the story today is of a profoundly low energy military parade being met with millions of americans in nationwide protests denouncing the dictatorial pretensions of the president

Incredible turn out for #NoKingsDay. Thank you to everyone speaking up and taking action. Dissent is patriotic!

2025, where everyone I know is doing one of two things: having a baby or going to Scotland.

WATCHING A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes to see if I want to read the book.

And, to no one's surprise, I do not want to read the book.

Idc, if you have the most dietary restrictions in the group, you pick the place to eat.

I recently took a trip with my cousin and when I tell you the dynamic is the *exact same* as it is between Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin in A Real Pain? I have needed so much sleep in the days I've been home because I am so exhausted (I am Jesse Eisenberg).

Normalize snack plates for meals 💁🏼‍♀️

Idk why it's always that way. I watch him like a hawk, everything happens. My husband lets him out in the yard unsupervised, it's perfectly uneventful.

I wish I were exaggerating but I truly, truly am not 😂🫠

There is one thing guaranteed in my life: if my husband is gone, that's when the dog decides to break down. Either he poops all over the house, gets in a tussle with an animal in our yard, has a bodily disfunction, or injures himself. Or any combination of these.

We walked around our neighborhood with our dog, slept in, worked outside, and cooked. It has been such a nice day.

Baked a carrot cake and made deviled eggs for Easter today.

My husband is doing pork and wild rice in the crockpot, and making cornbread.

It unexpectedly ended up being the two of us for a holiday I never really grew up celebrating but he did. I think this might be my favorite one yet 💚

Kamala Harris: “he’s a fascist”

Gen. Milley: “he’s a fascist”

John Kelly: “he’s a fascist”

Historians of fascism: “he’s a fascist”

The NY/DC political media: “how did we all fail to see that Donald Trump was a fascist?”

Proud to be a Marylander seeing the way our officials are fighting against the idiocy in the white house.

I love that medication can help me get a solid night's sleep, but both mornings I've used it, I'm sluggish for hours afterward. Like, a 30-min nap feels like it would fix me 😴

Even though I just finished Wicked and thought it was good but overall too long, I am still *sobbing* at Erivo's Defying Gravity, oh my god.

Original 1925 jacket cover of The Great Gatsby The Great Gatsby Here is a novel, glamorous, ironical, compassionate a marvellous fusion into unity of the curious incongruities of the life of the period which reveals a hero like no other one who could live at no other time and in no other place. But he will live as a character, we surmise, as long as the memory of any reader lasts. "There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life. .. It was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again?" It is the story of this Jay Gatsby who came so mysteriously to West Egg, of his sumptuous er-tertainments, and of his love for Daisy Buchanan a story that ranges from pure lyrical beauty to sheer brutal realism, and is infused with a sense of the strangeness of human circumstance in a heedless universe. It is a magical, living book, blended of irony, romance, and mysticism. CHARLES SCRIBNER'S SONS The GREAT GATSBY FITZGERALD

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

-FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Please repost! I am looking for novel length genre fiction centering Indigenous stories.
