That’s why Tyra gave him that side eye when he said that infamous “We were all rooting for you” line as they were on the judges panel for the last season of Project Runway! #TheGagIs 🤭🤣😭

Thanks for recommending StoryGraph!

A client of mine told me about Hoopla. It’s connected to community libraries and allows you to access e-books & audiobooks. All you need is a library card and it helps you get one if needed.

Idk if it’s black-owned but it is free so, passing this along ❤️

Yesss! Transferring is literally on today’s to-do list! I was scared of losing data (I really like having an accessible list of books I’ve read so I can reference them), but it seems like I won’t have an issue. And it just seems like a healthier place for my energy. Glad you made the switch!

Did this last year, we need more people there!

I’ve been dragging my feet getting off of Goodreads, but @friendzonepod.bsky.social taught me that Storygraph is owned by a Black woman *and* I can easily import my reading lists there. Plus, they have better features. I have no reason not to switch 🤷🏾‍♀️

✨✨✨

Good morning and thank you for the episode.

Have a beautiful day. I'll see you in the Gated Community.

Finally listening and hear me out @heyfranhey.bsky.social - I’m with Verizon, and last month I traded in my iPhone 11 for a 17, and all I had to pay was the tax and the upgrade fee. Just something to think about!
