Sadly I no longer can shop at World Market because they just sent me a text about their Christmas collection and it's still August, okay thank you.

Last night I finished the audiobook of Markus Zusak's Three Wild Dogs and the Truth, beautifully narrated by the author. It was brilliant. If you've ever loved a dog, particularly a "difficult" dog, you will laugh, you will cry, you will feel seen. #booksky

For no particular reason other than I happen to have all the books on hand, I've been alternating Elizabeth Strout's Amgash series with Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan series and it's... weird? But good. But weird. #booksky

Bye, Hat Creek.

*whispers* sometimes I also dance

I don't know if it's because I'm in my DGAF crone era or if it's just what society hath wrought upon me but lately I have taken to singing along out loud with whatever music is playing in whatever public space I'm occupying and I am a TERRIBLE singer so I apologize in advance if you live near me.

Books are how we get/stay informed, keep record, bear witness, and refuel for the fight! 📚💪

Current listen as I seek to fill the massive gaps in my very whitewashed, eurocentric education. #booksky #blackhistory #audiobook

I realize there are far bigger problems in the world and that my entitlement and privilege are showing but if Disney+ could please give us an easy way to remove shows from the Continue Watching tab like literally every other streaming service on the planet that would be so so great thank you.

Something to celebrate!

Next on my tbr pile even though I'm a big ol' scaredy cat who gets scared by scary things.

I'm reading the fourth Southern Reach book, Absolution. Highly anticipated! I'm not sure how this series manages to be so dreamy and so unsettling at the same time.

This week has been 47 years long so naturally it culminated in me slashing my nail bed on an unsolicited credit card offer printed on cardstock and in related news, what's everybody drinking tonight?
