If you need to dissociate from The Horrors, may I suggest THE UPSHAWS? I can’t be the only one who finds comfort in multi-cam sitcoms. PLUS the leads are fire. But Gen X knows Kim Fields has always been one of the greats.
Willing to explore this career path.
every couple hours another Twin Cities institution announces they’re closing for the general strike tomorrow and every couple hours I become more convinced we’re gonna win
This is not a comment on its quality, but I have almost zero recollection of HAMNET. Have not experienced this with a book before, and read it in (I think 2022). Still need to see the movie.
Ah yes, what a plethora of job listings. Thank you, LinkedIn. 🤦🏻♀️
A 24-pack of Diet Coke is nearly $15 ON SALE at my grocery store. Two weeks ago, it was nearly $13 (also on sale). Who’s got store brand dupes—but don’t say Aldi’s because the taste is VERY NOT it.
What’s it like to be a writer? It’s 2am and I’m googling brands of papaya juice from the late 1930s.
I am tired of Earth. These people.

Publicly and repeatedly demand impeachment or resign.
If you do neither, go ahead and pack your office because you’re losing your next election.
IMPEACH NOW.
People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

Have you ever had your sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle cramp? You know, the big one in your neck? It's a trip. #migraine
Endless shoes and boots
Canadian house party in winter 🥳
Hahaha, oh no we’d have to drink the whole batch!
Whiskey, yes. Condensed milk, no. We’ll make something work!
I don’t want to hear anyone giving the “the problem is ILLEGAL immigration” lecture ever again. Or lecturing anyone who’s undocumented for not “following the law” when the government doesn’t.
The existence of a character named Vinick on S2 of A MAN ON THE INSIDE makes me desperately want Alan Alda on season 3.
YES TO BOTH. You're on a roll! 😂
NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen.
Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.
Zomg I wanted to be that character.
Despite wanting to quit in the middle of my second page today, I looked up 20 minutes later and saw I was in the middle of my sixth page. None of it is GOOD, but it IS written down.
I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.
At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.
Writers: remember this when they tell you your lunch order is $3 over the daily allotted budget so you'll have to do without the fries
5 more pages today! It was such a slog, but then I noticed I'd done more than my required 4 pages. #ZD30
This song just popped into my head, and as goes the curse of the earworm I must share it to get it out.

Seriously though, I love classic TV themes so much. Did I once burn a CD of my favorites through TV history? 💯 An amazing use of Napster and free will. #nerd
I'm seeing a whole lot less outrage for the journalists of color who have been systematically discarded at places like NBC and CBS (and across journalism, really) than the response to Jimmy Kimmel's 5-day suspension.
Fun fact, in the early days of television, the World Series counted as Canadian content because it was "of special interest to Canadians."
Alright, time to kick off my Zero Draft 30 for November. Just gotta write 4 pages.
