My ice-maker sounds like Dumbledore tryna get out of chugging the Drink of Despair.
My dog is asleep but feels obligated to pay attention when he overhears dog words on my phone call. #mydog #bostonterrier #dogsky
Everyone loves a sonnet, but “dishwasher safe” is a pretty great poem. There’s a dactyl in there somewhere, baby. #poetry
Please let it warm up. My dog is cold. #bostonterrier #dogsky #mydog
I have heard of musher’s wax but we’ve never tried it! This injury was to his carpal pad, and he did it while punching a fence. However we do a ton of walking on concrete and I’m going to go ahead and check out that wax. And your dog is super cute!
My dog has a torn paw pad and was not allowed to go to the dog park. He is sad, but he will probably survive. #BostonTerrier #MyDog
Are there any depictions of writers, on television or film, who are doing totally fine on their books, and their deadlines are fine and their agents are pleased and everything at work is fine? #thebeastinme
Last night I took my socks off before bed. This morning there are three socks in that pile. Is this the most banal Christmas miracle on record?
My dog is on a road trip. #mydog #dogsky
Driving to Wisconsin from Virginia.
Minivans with antlers count so far: 0.5
Yuletide gaiety abounds.
How did I not know about this book?

Guns N' Roses put out a new song last week and here's everything you need to know about it:
Sometimes I forget that Slartibartfast is a real thing and not just a nonsense word I use to sign emails sometimes.
In *A Long Game* by Elizabeth McCracken, pubbed today, this really caught: She compares the practice of writing to lifting weights, remind us that doing a lot of reps with light weights won't help you improve. You have to lift heavy things, ripping your muscles apart in the process, to get stronger.
Listening to "silver and gold" by Ella Woolsey and "Stacy" by Fiona Fiasco. Hypnotic and yet not muddy. Good writing music. #newmusicfriday
Hey @sanders.senate.gov is giving out free water at the #NoKings protest in Williamsburg VA! Thanks Bernie!
A beautiful, energetic, peaceful protest in Williamsburg, VA. #NoKings
Is the score for Highest 2 Lowest actually incidental music from the score of the musical Oklahoma? #highest2lowest #appletv #spikelee
Sorry I forgot Bluesky existed. Again.
So far in #edinburgh I've eaten amazing crisp beetroot tostadas, terrible soggy pizza, fantastic pancakes, and a life-giving ham-and-cheese panini.
First day of flyering for #GooderThanGold at #edfringe and I stood near Bedlam Theatre and talked to women over 30. It was fun. My pitch: "This show is for women who take care of everyone else in their lives. What's that like?" Many responded: "Oh, so it's the story of my life then?"
Thank you! Joshilyn brought that to PA for us to play with last weekend. And some metallic paints.
#mydog is perfect and has never done anything wrong. #dogsky #bostonterrier
I am practicing #watercolor painting.
Late to the frenzy here, but I read this in like three urgent hours. Speculative fiction about motherhood and death: do go on, @helencphillips.bsky.social. Also, Viv is the most enchanting and still realistic just-turning-four-year-olds on the page. #booksky
My feed has perceived that I'm going to Scotland in a couple of weeks. I'm seeing a lot of "Move to Scotland!" suggestions. #edfringe
No I will not be covering my entire body in deodorant.
The fact that I was conflating #yellowjackets and #yellowstone put me off both of them unnecessarily. I was like, why is Kevin Costner all over a show about missing teenage girls? Duh, it’s two shows, both of which I now love.
Sometimes when I am not paying attention, I make ridiculous judgments.
Just over here using a nighttime facial towelette in the daytime like a goddamn lunatic.
