My coworker used AI to answer her interview questions for her.

She’s applying to be a fire fighter…

Ahhhh that is so cool!

Me finding new typos in a manuscript I’ve read a billion times already #editing #writer

Totally. I mean, I get why authors want those 5s, for sure, but five-star reviews don't often tell me much as a customer.

I almost also go filter for the three and four star reviews

Oh that must hit so different if you’ve been around Yale like that. Are the descriptions of the campus pretty accurate?

Hah that’d be a good show. Instead of home renovations it’s lair renovations

If you like villains who find dilapidated castles and turn them into lairs, boy, do I have great news…

I don’t have money to hire you

Editing

Tell me home April is turning into the month of three-star reads 😭 #reading #books #booksky

It makes me so irrationally furious when people return the free weights in the wrong order. I understand that this is a me problem but also why are you putting the 30s next to the 15s, you absolute demon?

So this arrived today:

It's RELAXING.

The gayest thing about me is the amount of ASMR I watch in the category of "pretty girls pampering each other."

There's a lady knight.

The plot is not romance-focused.

It's for weirdo lefties.

The setting is not our world.

My Bookish Instant Yes-es

It's in the fantasy genre.

It has queer characters.

It has big magic.

What are some of yours?
