Good lord!!! What in the world? At least the 65yo looks cool, I guess.
I really liked HUNGERSTONE, if youβre into something gothic right now. And I was surprised by how much I enjoyed EVERYONE IS LYING TO YOU, bcuz itβs a suspense about tradwife influencers. But it was fascinating.
Right??? Like, my mom is 80 & she saw Prince play at a small club in Minneapolis in the late 70s. We all need to update our references!
Hell yeah.
Yes! But a 70-yo in 2026 would only have been 13 during Woodstock. So even thatβs a stretch these days. More like disco or the Sex Pistols!
Now, my 75-yo mom did develop a fear of driving, but that was because she got T-boned & her CRV flipped over & she had to drop down from the seatbelt & crawl out her side window. Build some characterization in to your older folks!
Right? We had tech support in the 1990s too! Just read a 70yo character who needed help setting up her first email account. Possible? Sure. But her husband died from cancer, and youβre telling me she never even used a patient portal? π€¬
WE SURE DO.
A weather chart from January shows record low snow total years in Salt Lake City from KSL Weather. β#1 2025-2026 = 0.1 inchβ β#2 1933-1934 = 14.3 inchesβ β#3 2014-2015 = 15.4 inchesβ
Iβm sure this will be fine. π« (SLC snow totals from January, and no, it hasnβt gotten much better.)
Hm, Iβm not a scientist. Is this bad?
Yes! π
Oh, let me check my Kindle!
Right? I definitely had this moment of realizing the senior center party tunes are now the Rolling Stones & probably some Prince.
Young authors writing older characters: 70 is not that old. Pls drop the nostalgia for Elvis & fear of smart phones. A 70-yo just left her corporate job a year ago & has been on the internet longer than you have. She isnβt afraid to drive on the freeway, sheβs commuted for decades. π
True facts!
FYI: βWaryβ and βleeryβ both mean suspicious or showing caution.
But confusingly, βwearyβ is not the same. It means TIRED. Maybe it helps to remember it as wearing you down. Worn out.
Had to doublecheck the date on this
This makes my eyeballs hurt.
Oh, I saw! Someone didnβt give an answer! π€
Huge thank you to @kamlager-dove.house.gov π
Update!!! Finally!!!
Noem declined to answer. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Right? DO IT.
Is there some goddamn reason Dems arenβt asking Noem about her affair? The one conducted using our money? wtf? FIGHT THESE FASCISTS.
Why are Dems not asking her about her affair, conducted using our dollars? Are we being noble or something? Come on. Fight back.
Great work! Thank you!

In 2022 the Copyright Office said images without βhuman authorship,β don't qualify for copyright protection β this was affirmed in 2023 by a district court.
