Isn't that how you get "Mad Ass" disease?

No. You’ve been watching stock market fraud.
I haven't done it in a long time, but today I went into a bookstore looking for something specific (a book light) and ended up with $125 in books.
After I left the store I realized I had forgotten to ask if they had a book light. Because books!
The shop, btw, is Dreamers and Makebelievers.
I never thought I would see the day that getting vaccinations would be seen as a revolutionary act.

Relationship goals brought to you by Hairspray the musical.
Yay!!! Also, I adore your fanfiction series like pie. Lauren just started road tripping with Alex and I fear for her sanity. Thanks for the fun reads during this dark time.
Thank you so, so much for this recommendation! I finally finished it over the weekend and loved it. Way to show how actual boundaries work!
...now I have to agree with Mike Pence...
I was recently introduced to thriftbooks.com. This is not going to end well for my goal of not adding to my shelves. Or my bank account, probably. #romancelandia #booksky
Can we do a warm reboot on today? Is that something that can happen?
Anyone know a good romance with demi or ace characters as the lead(s)? #romancelandia #booksky
This is the front page of a fraudulent research article that purported to show a link between vaccines and autism. The word "RETRACTED" is written across it in large red letters. Wikipedia: On 28th February 1998, a fraudulent research paper by physician Andrew Wakefield and twelve coauthors, titled "Ileal-Lymphoid-Nodular Hyperplasia, Non-Specific Colitis, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder in Children", was published in the British medical journal The Lancet.[1] The paper falsely claimed causative links between the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and colitis and between colitis and autism. The fraud involved data selection, data manipulation, and two undisclosed conflicts of interest.
Today is Retraction Day, when we observe the anniversary of the retraction (Feb. 2, 2010) of the fraudulent paper that purported to show a link between vaccines and autism. 🧪#medsky
I keep thinking the same thing about slayers. Not that I want to ask the creator for that opinion, though.
I have said it for years, trans women would be welcomed as sisters of Themyscira.
I see people posting that Elon was at Auschwitz this time last year - therefore, his recent "gesture" is not antisemitic. I was there, too. Last year. With Elon. I am embarrassed that I have photos of this on my phone. My love, Gidon Lev, was the "special guest" of this photo-op event. We thought, at the time, that it would be good publicity. But I would not share the photo today. I chatted with Elon Musk. I spent hours with him and walked with him through Auschwitz. I stood with him, looking at the nauseating heaps of hair, luggage, and shoes flooded with violet light meant to preserve it. Is Musk an antisemite? People, actually, it's worse - he doesn't care whatsoever. Elon, father of "little X" as he described his freezing cold son to me, literally does not care. He was unmoved by the experience. For Gidon, to be in the place where his father, Ernst, died on a death march - whether shot by the side of the road or having simply collapsed - was a huge deal. Elon did not care. He was about his press junket and his bodyguards. I was ten feet from him as he posed for the cameras of his entourage. He was utterly detached. He cared about how he looked. When he placed a wreath at Auschwitz and Gidon was overlooked, he walked away with the cameras whirring. This is Elon Musk. A sociopath, if ever there was one. To deduce, from this visit, that he is a friend of the Jews is desperately naive.
Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz speaks out. She says that Musk felt nothing during the tour & only "cared about how he looked."
She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.
Yeah but did she furrow her brow?
Excellent! New writer and *multiple* series! I love hearing that she is kind and lovely. Not enough of that anywhere.
... I'm gonna be so broke.
Just discovered a new (to me) romance author - Olivia Dade. I am reading her novel "Spoiler Alert" and haven't had so much fun reading a book in a while. Absolute fluff, but I love it to pieces. #booksky #romancelandia
My right shoulder is in open revolt. Heat, cold, ibuprofen, Flexeril - nothing seems to be working. The winter weather, much as I love it, does not help.

Took way longer to realize Spotify gave me the movie soundtrack instead of the OBC recording of In the Heights than it should have.
Excellent, but different.
