I LOVED THIS BOOK SO MUCH

Oh I LOVED this one 😍

You mean you’re gonna batch heads, right

Saw a 12yo in a Blink-182 shirt and stopped dead in the middle of the sidewalk on e 11th. This is the absolute value of a deadhead sticker on a Cadillac and I don’t like it.

PRH: {immediately runs out of legacy of ashes}

Reverse Ebenezer Scrooge: he's a queer socialist librarian who hates having to close on the 4th of July because he knows people in the community need the wi-fi and air conditioning

we did not give “stormin through the party like my name is El Niño” nearly enough credit as a song opener but there’s time to fix that, friends

It’s on order 🫡

“and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart” is my new favorite ironic/ acidic “gee whiz,” like even better than there are cathedrals everywhere for those with the eyes to see and also not spoken by a monster so that’s cool
