Well, you can be in my band!
😆
Writers working on their book comps:
HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS??? 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😘
I have decided, after 30 years, on the name of my band: College Radio. No one else take it, please.
When I lose internet connection suddenly, I think it’s the universe saying “do NOT fucking post that, Are you insane?”
I’m at that stage where it hurts more if I miss a workout than if I just go through with it. You?
Lindsay Graham only wishes he got blown the hell out of.
I really miss getting the newspaper on my doorstep in the morning and having the sense that a collective worked diligently, day in and day out, to ensure we received truthful reporting. But I guess I’m an old fart.
Excited to be a finalist for Foreword Review’s 2025 INDIES award!
Is there a person to whom we can describe a book we want to write or read and they give you comp titles, or do we still call that person a librarian?
If you’re not crazy, please vote today because the crazy people sure as hell are. #primaries #vote #bringbacksanity
Omg, they’re idiots. You voted for people who couldn’t manage a Popeye’s
Entirely unsurprising how fast the MAGA’s heads swiveled from no new wars to conflict with Iran. They would cheer obliterating their own existence if Trump was the one detonating the bomb.
I’m kind of torn whether I want to go to heaven or over the rainbow bridge. I mean, do I get a choice?
I feel like part of the marriage contract is that your partner should watch your IG reels within 24 hours of you sending them.
The hardest thing about being a writer is explaining to people who are not writers but want to be writers why an anecdote is not a story.
The transition from going out drinking on Friday nights to staying at home waiting for one of your Words With Friends partners to lay some tile is not as gradual as you think.
Is everyone’s day pretty much:
1. I’m really great at what I do.
2. I’m a terrible fraud.
Repeat until bed?
Trying to learn up on my Bad Bunny before Sunday but this gummy is making me too sleepy. Bad gummy.
The things I’m most scared of at my age in exercise classes are not 1) whether I can go 60 whole minutes (I can) or 2) whether the weights are too heavy (they’re not) but whether I’ll poot or pee a little in the middle of a squat or jumping jack.
There was this couple from New Jersey, Nicki and Anthony, who were on the snorkeling trip we took last month. It was like they walked off the screen of Goodfellas, and I still think about them.
Sometimes people pass through your life to show you it’s not *you* who are broken.
I think if we’ve learned anything this week, it’s to be as warm, welcoming, funny, and kind as Catherine O’Hara. If any artist deserves her own Bible (besides Dolly Parton), it’s her.

Catherine O’Hara died.
I’m inconsolable.
The missus said “I’m looking for countertops on my phone” and I said, “I’ll help” and then I got on my phone and sent her a bunch of dog reels from Instagram. Teamwork makes the dream work.
Devastating: “Rady, the region’s only hospital dedicated solely to serving children and adolescents, cited recent federal pressure to end gender-affirming care or potentially lose access to all federal Medicaid and Medicare reimbursement.”

Look, there are two things killing bookstores, and neither one is ebooks.
One is rent.
The other is *waves hands vaguely* everything costing too damn much.
