Oh please add me to the feed for Age of Innocence!

Honestly this book makes me feel like making someone the executor of your will is like giving them a BFF friendship bracelet 😂

Good morning! After the first listen, my favorite song on the new Taylor Swift album is Elizabeth Taylor. Also, it’s hilarious that Actually Romantic is about her haters 😂

Oh I'd like to be added please!

Yeah, it must cost so much. It’s absurd that the NFL doesn’t foot the bill

Yeah the idea that Taylor swift needs exposure is laughable. And she has been clear about wanting ownership of all her work for ages, this isn’t surprising. Of course she wants something out of this deal.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

I started watching the anime of Nana, a manga I loved when I was in college and have mostly forgotten, and now I'm so sucked in I'm like, forget all other shows and interests, MUST SEE NANA AND REN REUNITE. Also, so glad for serializd where I can see ep by ep reviews of other people hating Shoji

wtf that’s so messed up, I’m sorry

I can’t read only novellas but I think it could convince me to read *a* novella! lol my bar is so low

Folks who are curious about the #Clarissa2025 group read, please be advised that Lovelace continues to be an absolute trip. He wants to remove Clary's heart from her body & carry it around with him in a golden receptacle. He also wrote poetry in which he refers to her lips as "those spicy doors" ✉️

ok I added it to my graphic novel book club suggestion list. If the others vote to read it I'll let you know what they think!

Thanks for reporting back! It sounds really interesting, I’ll have to check it out some time.

this is kind of ironic (or maybe just symmetry?) because when she specially commissioned her coffin to show off to her friends, she put in the date she left her parents' house as the date of her death. ✉️ I know I'm being callous, and I'm sorry, but this fictional girl has been dying for FOREVER.

For anyone who is curious about updates in the #Clarissa2025 real-time readalong, Clarissa died today. RIP. I do not consider this a spoiler because she has been slowly dying for hundreds of pages. It was starting to feel like a darker version of 'when will she leave her parents' house?'. ✉️

Haha I’m glad I’m not the only one who was that scared! The only way I can do horror is watching it on my iPad (small screen!) in broad daylight, which is how I’m watching the show 😅. Who knows if I’ll ever be brave enough to give the movies a try

my sole history with the Alien franchise is that one scary part of The Great Movie Ride at Disney MGM. And I will say that the random sparks flying as we go down the hallway in Alien Earth has effectively brought that feeling back to me. Surprise nostalgia!

Oh man that match was so great. I’m so happy for Naomi, she’s been working so hard to get back here, and she is so locked in. I’m excited for the semis!! 🎾🎾🎾

Omg watching Venus and Leylah Fernandez at doubles and this is so good!! 🎾

Congrats to Naomi!! And I think Coco will take the time away from a tournament to really work on her serve and forehand with the new coach and she’ll come back better than ever.

What I like most of all is that Naomi is smiling in the little clip montage as we go to an ad 🎾

Coco vs Naomi is a match I am so nervous-excited about. I am a fan of both of them (although Naomi's my #1), so I'm happy whoever wins, I just hope it's a good match 🎾

Love that cover art! But I think some of the scenes from the book might be too horrific to illustrate. Keith’s body? The burning of the neighborhood? Maybe they find clever ways not to show the worst of it

This is so heartbreaking. This win would’ve meant so much for Taylor and it was so close. Sports can be so brutal. 🎾

Well shit

Come on Taylor! Getting that energy back after a heartbreaker tiebreak 🎾

I’m doing my #Clarissa2025 reading in between watching tennis points and #Clarissa bringing in her future coffin to show to her friends is an intense literary emo/goth girl move. ✉️

this Taylor Townsend tiebreak is killing me

The footnotes were good in #Clarissa today. There's an offensive number of Latin quotes in this letter, so I'm flipping to the footnotes for translation. The letter writer attributes the last quote to Ovid, and the footnote says "'A sycophant will never be a friend.' Does not seem to be Ovid." ✉️

Well, they do say a disproportionate number of CEOs are psychopaths
