I have one window open into a paper on bird augury and the other open on an article about the Magdalene laundries.

The internet age is my ADHD dream.

Adam Nevill Part 5 Short Stories and Nona Studying to Become a True Fae

I've only got myself 50% back into the saddle. The part where I write. Not the part where I social media.

P.S. Feel free to share or scrape the idea for your area if you have the resources. I just want to make sure people don't go hungry, especially with the holidays coming up.

If you live in the Greater Cincinnati Area and see a business/person offering support for the loss of SNAP benefits, send it to me. I'm creating a spreadsheet people can share on social media and Reddit so it's all in one place.

Solidarity, little girl. Solidarity.

At the doctor's, this little girl is "reading" loudly from one of the medical magazines.

Her mother tells her she needs to learn how to use her inside voice, and little girl tells her in an offended voice, "Then this book needs learn how to use its inside voice."

Picture of cells of a Google Doc. The last cell is 3451. This is a the number of books, not counting series, I have on my reading list. It also random generates a title for me to read every time I click on it, so that's a nice little perk when I need a new book.

So, vampires, do you have a program where I can get the bite and instead of living outrageously and burning child vampires in a well, I can just stay in and read? Asking, for a friend.

My reading list:

The horror that minorities have to go through because Trump voters wanted exactly this.

How did Louisiana vote? Well, 60% of the turnout voted for exactly this sort of thing. Trump and his team were very clear about this.

They still picked him.

How have I had Libby for years and missed Hoopla?

Also, Palamedes finally figured out why all the cats line up outside my room when they hear the door open. We’re both a little slow.

A picture of a disastrous desk. The bottom is a the very tippy top of my keyboard. The top is a little glimpse of the a red cup that looks like a tiki demon face. The rest is yarn. On white to rust red variant, a black variant, and what was left of my will and two once connected needles that the cord split on. Not pictured: Me, on the other side, full of pleasant enjoyment while reading a great recommendation guide. It's only not full-blown excitement because my to-read list is at (conservatively, some bullets are just to look into a full collections of authors) over 500 books right now. Do I just never sleep now?)

Don't mind me. Just making book lists based on #feralandhysterical by #sadiehartmann and knitting a LARP scarf for my kid so hard it's almost a manifestation that's I'll finish both before 2025 does actually murder us.

You know what was weird last week? I didn’t see anyone fired for quoting words actually spoken by Jane Goodall.

Chainsaw always wins though.

Looking out the window at the next yard project: Jesus, that's grape vine, tree of heaven, and honeysuckle in a battle royale. The invasive bracket on survival of the fittest.

In case you were wondering, Ayman Soliman, the former cincinnati children’s hospital Muslim chaplain jailed by Trump admin who finally won his freedom back yesterday, tells @rollingstone.com just now, via a friend, that he “absolutely” plans still to return to the Butler County jail as a volunteer…

Naked authoritarian fascism. Love and support to the entire team at @jimmykimmellive.bsky.social, who *will* come out the other side of this horrendous abuse of power. Disgusted to see ABC caving to this glaringly illegal and unconstitutional threat from Brendan Carr.

I joked with family that life gave me chronic illness because the world wasn't ready for a 40+ years old, give-no-fucks me at full power.

Picture of a laundry basket with a quilting project in it. There is a calico cat who is actually a golden retriever stuck in a cats body, laying down one side of the basket to sleep.

Nona has the super power of sleeping anywhere.

(I can still surprise Brendan Whaley now and then with the things that come from my brain sometimes and get turned into a weird five-minute hyper focus. Drew, at this point, just shrugs when he catches a stray outburst of level 10 brain spiders.)

"I think the thing I'm writing is going to be 5million levels of witchy black humor and ultraviolence and end in a threesome of women"

*pause*

Andrew Biddle "Well, get after it."

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy.

Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media.

That’s why Trump is attacking education, science, museums, and the arts – to prevent us from learning.

It's Fascism 101.

A title from wow that says sexy decaying raccon, mispelled.

Everyone has a type. Yes, the name is misspelled. On Purpose. I swear.

Resetting my baseline to 0:

Adam Nevill Part 3 Three more books and not five months later.

Palamedes of the Calamities really has the look of Monday written all over him.
