Just watched a guy at the store replace the double-stuffed Oreos in his shopping cart with regular-stuffed while muttering "You're on a diet, Jerry. You're on a diet."

Keep fighting the good fight, Jerry.

Fun fact: Books are so heavy that there are new libraries that have had to be torn down and rebuilt because the architects forgot to account for the weight of the paper!

Can't decide if leaving behind my phone and computer and just walking into the woods for a week sounds more like a terrible idea or absolute heaven.

Nothing makes me question the existence of god more than swamp ass and mosquitoes.

Coming soon! This Deluxe edition of DEADLY EDUCATION by Wraithmarked. Newest illustration review below & more details at:

At this point, the hero we need might just be a sizable meteor.

My furry potato in a rare moment of feeling extra cuddly 😭

I just had to explain to a Gen Alpha cousin of mine the concept of having to buy music, and I I've never felt older in my life.

I just overheard some woman yelling "I'M TOO STRESSED TO TAKE A VACATION!" into her phone in the parking lot, and I don't think I've ever related to anyone more in my life.

Small press publisher Wraithmarked Creative + artist Rovina Cai bringing this very fancy edition of A DEADLY EDUCATION via Kickstarter, launches July 22!

The biggest problem with having a blind pitbull is that you have to seriously consider getting additional collision insurance in case his head dents the parked cars he runs into on a daily basis 🤦

Us to printer: "How?? HOW do you print 7 pages UPSIDE-DOWN in every book we ordered??"

Printer to us: *Very calmly points to the upside-down pages in the files WE sent them.*

Us to printer: "You know what? We can probably move on to the next topic."

My skydiving friend asked me if I wanted to come with him sometime.

Sir, I get an adrenaline rush driving 5 miles over the speed limit. I'm GOOD.

Sounds like a very safe and secure working environment to me! 🤣

Working at a publisher is all fun and games until you remember books weigh 2-3lbs each, come in boxes of 15, and your company calculates shipping in *tons*...

Help.

There's pros and cons to being normy-passing.

Pro: I fit in when my friends want to go to the sports bar.

Con: I have to pretend I don't speak English whenever anyone asks me a question about football.

It's cover reveal time!

I have officially reached the point where I think about my hair in the same way I think about my childhood dog... Long gone, much missed, never forgotten.

I lowkey feel kinda bad for whoever eventually inherits my book collection. Like... No one be me NEEDS 17 copies of The Martian.

Don't care if it makes you unfollow us.

After July 4th, the pumpkins come out.

Fight me.

Every time I read the Google AI summary I'm reminded of that one Parks & Rec scene where Andy tells Leslie the internet told him her symptoms mean she has "network connectivity problems."

In the last hour I've had to Google infant mortality rates in Japan, the history of Toblerone chocolate, and how long a human brain functions after decapitation.

My FBI agent is gonna have whiplash by the end of the day...

If you stacked your physical TBR up and it's not taller than you are, do better.

I wish I had half the confidence of grown men using the public bathroom in a restaurant and walking out without washing their hands.

Sir... WTF is wrong with you??

I swear some days I think we're living a bad Rick & Morty episode.
