Sometimes I forget I am an old lady and my boyfriend is an absolute brand new baby to this world (1988 vs 1991) and then I get to do things like introduce him to UNFORGIVABLE

Moving into my new building the day before the doormen and porters strike and panicking about how I can make sure they know I’m the daughter of a red diaper baby and full support of their actions and not a scab but also can’t exactly….not move in

Book/publishing friends! I'm going to be in NYC April 16-27 and free as a bird aside from moving my bf's stuff into our new apt and doing some Pilates job interviews...any BookCon parties or meetups? Coffee dates?

Me: why am I SO THIRSTY lately surely I must be DYING or have some TERRIBLE DISEASE
Earth:

It would be so useful if there were a Mindset List published each year for the average sixth grader too. Anyone have any favorite resources for understanding Kids These Days™️?

Just so we're clear, I have only nice things to say about Hannah E. Gomez in Chicago

As if any company in 2026 still cares about customer satisfaction when they hold us all hostage

If anybody knows a Hannah Gomez in Oceanside, CA, who works at Albertson's, or a Hanna N. Gomez in Dallas who might also do Pilates and is also possibly Jewish, will you please tell those bitches to learn their own goddamn email addresses? I'm so tired of being their secretary

Nothing more galling than companies that refuse to provide human customer service agents but add a fucking typing sound effect to go with the idiot bot

Time blindness with ADHD and inability to track time post pandemic are both things I hate, but I do very much enjoy the radio stations that are still banking on “the 80s, 90s, and today” as if that doesn’t cover more than a quarter century by now

can't believe we don't have xoxopublishinggg anymore but nobody has made a publishingsnark subreddit

Oh totally

And meta gad the fucking AUDACITY to claim I opted in? To messages from an account I wasn’t aware of??

Forget that, she even managed to play one clone pretending to be another!!

Okay we already knew every PAC and campaign sells our email addresses to every other PAC and campaign, but somebody tell me how & why I just received Facebook messages from David Hogg when I have NEVER interacted with him or Leaders We Deserve on ANY social platform?!

This is a master class in trolling people who are so beneath you intellectually while thinking they are at the top of the heap. I'm taking notes

Instead of 2389547203 sprayed and painted edge editions of the same book, I vote for a loooooot more annotated editions of contemporary classics instead

Now I’m trying to figure out how being a Dolphin Girl impacted my life

Don’t threaten me with a good time

Can’t believe it took 36 years for someone to diagnose me with ADHD

Biochemistry is amazing. I have a drug (caffeine) addiction that causes withdrawal symptoms yet the drug doesn’t actually prevent me from doing the thing (fall asleep) it is designed to do & in fact too much of it causes me to *immediately* do the thing the drug “prevents.”

I don't expect Delta to control the weather, but the audacity of them to say "sorry, we were unable to automatically rebook you" and make me rebook myself and THEN take credit for it and say "we've gone ahead and rebooked you" is infuriating.

I'm sorry but I don't think "hierarchy" or "peripheral" are that difficult and I will never understand why so many native English speakers are incapable of saying them correctly

Putting my bet in now that this will be in most divorce filings in 2027/2028. Any attorneys want to weigh in?

Why are the kids at my gym tryna make us fight

I don’t even know @sarahjmaas.bsky.social but I hope she’s mad at this

Hey @bookmansaz.bsky.social this is disgusting. Your inconsistent ARC policy has always been annoying but the gall to be calling this an $800 rare book when you know perfectly well they say not for sale on the interior?

I cannot. The kids are not okay
