Girl, they’re treading all over you

The police have arrived. Husker is sat for the drama.

Neighbor who owns the hit car is sitting on her front stoop looking pissed. Another neighbor (who made us cookies yesterday) brought her a dustpan.

This explains why my publicist has repeatedly booked me on a podcast that feels like something Piers Morgan should go on.

Big drama in the neighborhood today. A car hit a parked car across the street from my house. A bunch of pedestrians saw it and multiple people came out of their houses at the noise. While said people took pictures of their plates, the car drove away!

On the bright side, our neighbors brought us cookies because "it's hard enough being pregnant in this political climate."

the weird thing about the fall of our personal republic is that instead of an authoritarian regime installing a propaganda arm, the propaganda arm is installing the regime

It’s ironic that the people in this country that are responsible for creating and perpetuating poverty are also the ones most afraid of witnessing it.

Twilight is already a cultural staple (but also this is demonstrably false if you look at the commercial novels printed en masse that have been forgotten in favor of less popular literary classics)

Also Napheesa Collier wrote in the Players Tribune that she dreams of getting paid to read thrillers all day, so someone needs to get her my books

The WNBA has solved my sports complaints of 1. Not enough kissing and 2. The players have personalities and political opinions. If only they were compensated appropriately.

It’s very funny that IG seems to think I’m both a medical doctor and a K-12 teacher, which actually I have a PhD and taught at the university level. So close and so far away at the same time.

I started Next Gen NYC today and I think it’s interesting that the people with Housewives for moms are much more normal than the guy with the investment banker for a dad.

Season two of The Valley gives big season two of RHOBH vibes where there’s egregious domestic abuse issues happening and it’s somehow still a “debate.”

A reminder yet again that the people who position themselves as the "defenders of women's sports" when attacking trans people actually hate women's sports and women athletes... especially Black women athletes...

If I’m being real, the most informative thing to my writing has been watching the Scream franchise.

I do feel like I had that on Twitter and it was taken away and I’m not sure how to get it back.

I actually think comparing LLMs to PhDs make sense because PhDs also get more incomprehensible the longer you talk to them.

hoping that when they say the LLM talks like a Ph.D.-level expert, they mean "holds indecipherable decades-long academic grudges expressed largely in the form of questions that are actually more of a comment"

People keep telling me how close my due date is not understanding that every day of pregnancy is an eternity.

Alabama prisons have had staffing issues for years, despite legislators raising salaries and pumping money into the system, because our correctional facilities are violent and very few people want to work there. You can fire cash into a burning building, but people still see the flames.

I'm unsure of everything. I am scared all the time. AND I have this fear that being a writer will be taken away from me. I know I'll write no matter what, but the fear is stuck in me like a splinter. I would have to die if I couldn't have that one thing.

Very same

Yes!

One term of youth slang that I love is “crashing out.” When you’re crashing out, there’s nothing more satisfying than shouting “I’m crashing out!”

If anyone needs me, I’ll be developing mRNA vaccines in my garage. If I come up with something, I’ll let you all know.

(seeing the president wandering around on the roof while the economy adds 3 jobs per month amid weekly pedophilia revelations) time to sign a billion dollar settlement with this man

Agreed! I think it's part of the weird Trump thing where people think he's not speaking literally when actually he speaks literally quite a bit, he just makes no sense.

This totally lines up with the one Trump supporter I eavesdrop on sometimes. He thinks everything Trump does is totally hilarious including things that Trump has been globally ridiculed for. I think one of our many national problems is that a lot of people have a terrible sense of humor!

Ronan is switching to a big boy bed and the fetus in my uterus is trying out for a special night time gymnastics team and I am 😴😴😴
