BOOKMAIL! 🤩🤗 Thank you so much @prismata.press and @sophiajt.com for this beautiful book I am excited to get into it!

PR’d my 10k time!!! 🏆🤩 Wasn’t trying but thats what practice does, right! Great run today!!! #BlackSkyFitness #Running

So awake because I went to bed early and slept all night and now TinyCat is on my hip snoring. And I LOVE that for me 💕🥰🦁

Dreamed I was auditioning to be a Peloton instructor. All the treadmills were set up at the end of an aisle in a retail store and we were warming up. 🤔🏃🏾‍♀️

Excited for my run tomorrow and xtra run snacks! And I think bookmail from New Zealand 🇳🇿 might arrive tomorrow!! Super excited for THAT!

I need to rinse my brain with peroxide after that! 🙄

Return. Borrowed. Book.

Turquoise eyes is an idiot. The other woman is an idiot too. Just a lot of idiocy going on in this book. And yet… I’m still reading. Put me down as an idiot too. 😫

*There is no excuse for just reading dialogue. The writer worked very hard on that exposition and what not. 🤨😫

Chapter 18 and you start describing landscapes amidst emotional turmoil, questioning, and unresolved tension I HATE YOU SO MUCH! Get to it! Noone cares how the sister’s backyard LOOKS! This why people only read dialogue!

This book is INFURIATING 😂😂😂

Starting to think this book is bad on purpose! 🧐

Turquoise and HER sister touch each other on the face and lips a lot and I don’t like that either!!! What. Is. Going. On? I keep reading and I feel my face deepening in this expression 😬

Whats the worst that could happen if I finish hate-reading this book? 🤔🧐🤨😕

This book is pissing me AWF! I’m hate-reading at this point. So old turquoise eyes reminds you of your dead 20 year old sister and you want to smash. 👀 EeeEe-Yuck! TF did I just read!

We got links now!

What you’re NOT gonna do, Writer, is tell me this character’s eyes are blue the first time you introduce them and then a few paragraphs later tell me they’re TURQUOISE! Strike 1!

Such an amazing conversation!

I was just informed there are both gold and red types of kiwis! The green ones make my mouth burn so maybe there is hope for me yet. Kiwis are delicious save the allergic reaction. Gotta find these other varieties 🤞🏾

Ooh 🤤 well hello there. I noticed you’re alone. May I join you? 🫦

I went outside to stare out like a weirdo and my neighbor is outside staring like a weirdo. Ma’am! This breezeway aint big enough for two weirdos this morning. Come on! 😅😆

What if i make a lil bowl of popcorn. 🍿 just a little snack

In light of some magazines pulling scummy things on creators lately, I’m doing a little thread on short story rights. I don't want anybody getting taken advantage of. Also, if you're new, this stuff can be confusing!

"The study argues that decades of breeding and farming to increase yield have reduced many nutrients in crops." Capitalism's idea of efficiency is only tied to profits. There was never any consideration given to if the increased yields still delivered adequate nutrition.

Now for a bowl of ground meats!

Kept saying I was going to DNF this book I was reading but kept reading and finished it and now I’m crying cos it was sweet 😭😭😭

Story by me, published this year in the fabulous @translunartl.bsky.social !
