Somehow I'd never come across this Prince Buster cover of the Classic Andrews Sisters song. Thanks, music challenge!

#5CoverSongsTreat Day 1:
SWEET and Tender Hooligan

This year I went from the misery (get it?) of fascist chicken-shit Hawley to the joy of marathon speech giver Merkely as one of my senators. Did I trade up, or what?!

Me, this morning: I'm going to start going to bed at a reasonable time every night so I can get a decent amount of sleep!

Me, at 9:00pm: I must start a Haunting of Hill House rewatch, or else I will die.

BTW I had to replace "this sucks balls" with "this is awful" due to it sounding like I was making another penis-related joke.

I really hope she can find pro-boner representation.

(All jokes aside though, this is awful.)

My "Monarchy is Dead" Smiths album cover sign with a newly found kindred spirit's "Never Mind the Bollocks, Release the Epstein Files" Sex Pistols album cover sign

Good times at #PDX #NoKings march today and the weather was perfect. I'm so happy to be back in this city.

"we can ribbit!"

These are my absolute favorite.

Monarchy Is Dead sign

One side of my sign is ready for the PDX #NoKingsDay protest tomorrow (except it's supposed to rain on and off because Portland so I want to laminate it). The other side, shockingly, will also have a Smiths theme.

So glad to be back.

Bookshop: Buy books online. Support local bookstores. An online bookstore that financially supports local independent bookstores and gives back to the book community.

Cool how neither of those links worked, but I guess anyone who (a) reads these skeets, and (b) is interested In the books, can use the good ol' search bar on bookshop.org or in the Libby app to find them.

Book #2 I'm currently loving:
The Lost Village - Camilla Sten

I've been listening to this as an audiobook while schlepping stuff around in my creepy basement storage space. Luckily, while the book is also creepy, there are no basements In it. Bookshop.org US share.google/DDVGZKoNyiIq...

Ironically, I'm not a mom, don't use social media beyond the occasional ltrip to Bluesky, never really blogged much past the days of diaryland and livejournal, and don't give a damn about influencers beyond thinking the whole thing is fucking stupid.

Back in the day before influencers, I was addicted to blogs. Most of the reads in my blogroll were ones I genuinely liked, but there were also the hate reads. I'm genuinely curious about the average % of falsity in 2010ish mommy blogs vs the momfluencers of today.

Book #1 that I'm currently loving the hell out of: Everyone Is Lying to You - Jo Piazza

I waited months to borrow this on Libby and it was worth ti. Besides being funny as hell at times, and an all-around good story, the peek behind the influencer curtain is fascinating. #MotherhoodEnhanced!

IMO it's 100% ok to sic the parking police on people for shit like this.
