Do you ever just sit there mid-read, realizing there was a time where people hand wrote books? No typewriters, no computers, no laptops, no smartphones... Just their quill/pen/pencil ... and their hands. It's literally wild.

well this weekend, i have: -Published 2 parts on Medium for Grim City -Published 1 book review on my blog -drafted another book review that I need to edit -Started a 3rd post for Grim City for tomorrow's post This is the most creative work I've both generated AND published any time recently! ✨

Chappell Roan setting her Grammy down on the floor to finish her well thought out speech about how the industry needs to treat artists better… Voice a little shakey and reading from her journal. In a room full of industry titans AND her peers … was A MOMENT. That was powerful. 👏🏾

this account doesnt care if you use the term "read an audiobook" / "read book (via audio)" because she is a well adjusted adult that doesnt gaf about harmless stuff like this. 💜 this account is an unsafe space for ppl with sticks up their rear-ends 🫶🏾

Let me go off about the art project on my desk today *can't because it's a secret present from a lovely woman to their author friend who's about to release a book and it's a scene with a character they love in the said so book* 🥹💜

“Let’s agree to disagree.” About my rights? Absolutely not. About the rights I want my fellow overlooked and marginalized communities to have? Hell no. About which brand Mac n cheese you like? Fine. But ur on thin ice there too depending on your stances of the above. 🤙🏾👋🏾

Rings of Power show is amazing when you don’t have LOTR fans in your ear about every bit that wasn’t like the book lol I KNOW THAT AND I DO NOT CARE. 🤷🏾‍♀️ I was entertained nonetheless

everyone’s like “women don’t have to shave underarms! liberate yourself” fine, do u. but tbh ive actually wanted the equality version where its: dudes plz shave ur arm pit hairs. You wont smell so nasssssty when sweating. lmfao plz don’t hate me. 💀

of allllllllll the things parents warned me about countlessly… not a single person warned me that a baby will just randomly, out of the pits of sleep, start full on scream crying. … and then have the sheer audacity to start giggling when picked up. ITS 12:07am, LITTLE MA’AM. 😭

so how do you create community on here? it feels like crickets. what am i missing? what am i doing wrong? tbh i prob dont spend enough time on here. but anyone have the down low on best practices? and i dont mean "growth hacks" i mean like dos n donts on here. like what & where are the vibes?

man that Neil Gaiman news is gross. dude. these last few years are reallllllllllly exposing these people as sickos. 🤢 And his wife sent him women “as if they were just toys”????? what the fuck. that article was so dark and icky and so incredibly sad. all these heros have become villains.

Don't you dare turn your eyes away from history, even the awful, scary parts. If you don't watch it with your own eyes, you rely on others to tell you what you saw. We must all bear witness to what's coming.

several years ago (2019?) i heard LeVar Burton say: "Hard work is a form of self love." (in the context of working on ourselves and towards our dreams and goals). it was a hard truth for me at the time but it's stuck with me since. only in the past couple years have i truly FELT what he meant.

it's gotta be weird if you aren't into football at all but follow people who do. you're just minding your own business, enjoying yourself on social media, and all of a sudden everybody says DOINK at the same time and doesn't bother to explain why

This is a fantastic post if you’re looking to start blogging but aren’t sure where to begin!
