Omg!! 💖💖

I spy MAGGIE by @emergencychampagne.bsky.social 💚🩷

my dog’s name is oliver, and every time i get an email from someone of the same name, there is a very brief moment where i think maybe my dog has made an email account and is trying to contact me

just remembered “prop master” is a job that exists and i think we all need more whimsical job titles. i don’t want to be an email marketer. i’m your inbox jester.

a medical drama set in a vet ER called … The Pett

the work is mysterious and important

if you had a bagel party in which everyone had to bring a different cream cheese, how would you keep track of who is bringing what?

a spreadsheet.

the problem with mcnally jackson and trader joe’s being in the same building is that i now think books are part of my groceries

i don’t know who needs to hear this but there is literally nothing stopping you from taking a 15 minute break and going to get fries
