If you aren’t religious and just go randomly go to a mass it’s like a really really low budget very off broadway musical. I mean like the absolute worst community theater project with audience participation and very specific choreography.
Final takeaway: If you aren’t religious and just go to a mass it’s like a really really low budget very off broadway musical.
The communal pool
Jesus was the OG zombie story.
The male choir lead looks like col sanders
Two surprising things.
Everyone is dipping into a large granite baptismal pool in the ground - not I.
Nobody ever joined a gang for hopes purposes. Isn’t that sorta why the mafia was formed though? To give hope & structure to neighborhoods that had none?
The priest is giving a sermon on diversity equality and inclusion about how people have taken language and twisted it.
If we have eternal life isn’t that actually a curse? It sounds exhausting.
They are reading the Easter story to the children with a rock egg that is actually so tiny. I have thoughts.
This is room is a giant circle. So I’m staring directly at the other half of the congregation. Like directly into their eyes.
Update. Did not burst into flames upon arrival to the catholic mass my family decided to randomly attend. Please hold for a live play by play.
currently holding back the kind of news that would make your book club group chat implode.
we can’t say who’s coming (yet)… but we can say: clear your calendar, charge your phone, and emotionally prepare yourselves.

What’s the best piece of advice I could give an author?
If you’re everywhere, you’re nowhere. Let the people miss you. Especially if you want them to show up.
If we don’t draw a clear line between defending queer books, BIPOC voices, and progressive literature vs protecting actual predatory content, we lose credibility—and we put vulnerable people at risk.
Defending this kind of content under the banner of “book banning” does real damage to the movement to protect intellectual freedom.
And here’s where it gets complicated: we need to talk about censorship and freedom to read—but we also need to talk about how those conversations get hijacked when actual abuse and exploitation are involved.
The fact that there’s even a debate because the author is a woman speaks to a dangerous double standard. Harm is harm, no matter who writes it.
Let’s be honest: if Tori Woods were a man, the public reaction would be completely different. No one would be crying “slippery slope” or defending this as just “fiction.” If a man wrote a book fantasizing about a toddler, we’d all be in agreement—it’s predatory, full stop.
10-year-old me would take one look at my life and say, “Wait… you mean we turned reading into a full-time job??” and honestly, she’d be right to be smug about it.
