Bout time. There was too many damn people in that house. #LoveIslandUSA

No good days for them. None. Ruin everything.

I do feel for Clarke. She walked into an absolute mess. #LoveIslandUSA

My fellow Ace haters really showed up for these polls. I’m proud of yall. #LoveIslandUSA

Of course Andreina looks even sexier after she gets slimed. #LoveIslandUSA

Ace will never stop talking shit about Amaya. #LoveIslandUSA

The boys really forgot there are cameras in the villa and Austin doesn’t know we know he’s a racist Trump supporter who we’ve wanted gone since the beginning. #LoveIslandUSA

Why is Huda acting like she raised Chris? #LoveIslandUSA

Taylor has to know we have footage of him saying how much he dislikes Olandria like 7 episodes in a row. #LoveIslandUSA

Wait why did they pop the balloons before the actual results. #LoveIslandUSA

Lots of no-good Republicans.

I voted Ace, Austin and TJ at the bottom for each poll. #loveislandusa

Not the poll results being sponsored by Maybelline. 😂 #LoveIslandUSA

Nic and Cierra haven’t been near each other this whole episode. #loveislandusa

Sitting here waiting for the producers to push Nic and Olandria back together. #LoveIslandUSA

Backyard amateur fireworks: bad and annoying Big professional firework show: one of the great wonders of human invention. Makes you a child again every time. You simply must hand it to China

Well, shit. Let's sell some books.

There is... EXCITING LIVE JAZ HAPPENING @audreysbooksyeg.bsky.social

If yall let Iris and TJ win this show I will lose my mind. He is also a Trumper. #LoveIslandUSA

Pepe needs to leave and go get Hannah. #LoveIslandUSA

Is there any feeling in the world like finishing a book and sending it off to your editor?

Zak using the language provided to him but Ace and Austin to blame Amaya for the fact that he kissed her in Casa is one of the most insane things I have ever seen. Sweet Jesus. #LoveIslandUSA

Zak. Are you nuts? Oh my god. #LoveIslandUSA

So Huda and Olandria made up. Let’s not forget this. 👇🏾 #LoveIslandUSA

Laura Loomer is one of the most influential people in the Trump Administration, and she called for genocide against the entire U.S. Hispanic and Latino population, over 65 million people in total, most of whom are either citizens or documented immigrants. apollonotebook.substack.com/p/close-ally...

Amaya got DESTROYED! I’m having a hard time weeping for Huda getting told about herself once. #LoveIslamdUSA

Please don't ever underestimate the power of your rage and spite. I plan to bring every ounce of my feral GenX, big desi auntie fuck you energy to making life miserable for these fascists. Who is joining me?

Huda writing the Hannah comment. And then slipping right back to victim mode. 🙃 #loveislandusa

The way the guys are treating Amaya is why the male loneliness epidemic will persist. A girl can’t cry when multiple people are mean to her??? #loveislandusa

I am desperate to know the logic of the producers not pushing Nic and Olandria to the finish line. #LoveIslandUSA

So Huda walking off now reminds me how she walked off during the girls beach date debrief to go spy on the boys convo. She makes choices to show the girls it’s the Huda show. #loveislandusa

Maggie the Mechanic Study of Jaime Hernandez panel

As a weepy bitch, I feel for Amaya. #LoveIslandUSA

Huda choosing to put herself in the corner is a choice. #LoveIslandUSA

I will not miss Ace’s whisper talking. Talk normal, you little demon. #LoveIslandUSA

The way they manipulate information is something else. Insignificant but clear example: This wierd idea that Kid Rock ever had any respect as a…a whatever he’s supposed to be. Puh-lease. He has ALWAYS been a joke and I cannot believe I still hear his name.

you know what, he’s right

When I was in college a girl told me she read at least 45 minutes of news a day to stay informed and I thought that was too much news for any single 24-hour period, and now I'm like "Holy cats can we please have only 45 minutes worth of news each day?"

hey @chel-c-cam.bsky.social I just watched S2 E3 of The Buccaneers and now I'm sincerely confused I SHIP EVERYONE WITH EVERYONE ELSE, IDEK WHAT IS GOING ON

These little guys have been out of stock for a bit but they are back!!!

So um I’m in the best RP guild in my whole experience of WoW and we did a massive RP and I brought my mid level mage who was recruited because he was a. Good-aligned and b. Handsome but He is the most INT 18 WIS 6 character ever I’m still ooc laughing about it even though it was FRIGHTENING

successfully dodge jury duty

Starting a fresh notebook for #wip notes!

In a shipping container.

Why does something absolutely riveting happen about ten minutes before i have to put my shoes on for an appointment? Every dang time!

everything is terrible, but here’s a short video of a crow taking a bath in a too-small water bowl

I've been doing a lot of blocking today on the "sorry but the people in red states voted for it" front. Also the "the blue states should just break off" front. Also every other tedious variation of the genre. I wonder how many of them were yelling at Canadians a few months ago. lol

If I ever see Charlie Kirk, I’m doing the thing with a smile on my face because I’m sure I can find two dozen lawyers to defend me pro bono.

@gillyarcht.bsky.social very good thread here

I'm only about two steps away from being a possum as it is. May as well.

On a uni stats form I was asked to fill out while studying in the UK in 2008 there was no option for “Arab” ethnicity so I ticked “Asian” on the basis of West Asian being most accurate only to have a white woman handling the form blink at me & tell me I’d made a mistake

Does it make anyone feel better that Halloween is on a Friday this year?

Okay I got slightly rained on but I also got an one beerb

Tai says she’s sorry we’ve had a hard day but she’s very glad the murderers are gone and they left her many small logs so she knows there’s still good in some people. #dogs

This! Seeing others be happy has helped keep me going in recent months.

Hey apparently we’re not being taxed on tips anymore so feel free to tip that story if you want, nothing matters anymore, tip jar in profile. Let’s all drink around the flaming pyre of our future

Perfect. I keep pitching author photos with no face, but keep trying rejected.

Led a tour at AVAM today and decided to treat the teens to the Fart Machine. I always ask, Why is this art? The visitors always have good answers. Then I tell them: You can’t make a FART without ART.

Just… supposed to sit here and work on my little books as I stare down the end of my disabled kid’s healthcare. Wild.

Every single House Republican voted for either the #BigUglyBill or a procedural measure to advance it at some point in the process, even the two House Republicans that voted against the final bill.

Today is a great day to donate to @wawchealth.bsky.social if you want to put some good into the world! wawchealth.networkforgood.com/projects/250...

If a concentration camp isn't deemed safe for elected officials to visit, it certainly isn't safe for those held in the concentration camp.

Seriously, no weirdos.

I hope half of america's utter lack of enthusiasm results in less fireworks, which results in calmer pets, calmer vets, and fewer losses of wildlife. You can literally scare birds to death with fireworks. What are we even celebrating anyway? This country is at an all time low.

I'm sorry, in this house we Weep for Manetheren. perrinaybara.com

Texted my wife for permission to wear her headband out and about to do errands. Answer: yes. Related: am totally stealing this headband.

The biggest difference I've found between BlueSky and Xitter is, over there I'd call somebody a fucking idiot and then block. Here, I just block. 'Bye, asshole. No fuss, no muss, no bother. 🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫

Nothing to see here. Move along.

Really excellent thread.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... First, this is sad and I wish his family peace. This is going to sound very weird -- but does anyone else remember him dying months ago? Maybe last year in 2024? Am I absolutely losing my mind? Am I from a different timeline?

Important thread for my fellow Pony Famous fam

I don’t have the capacity to offer any real thoughts at the moment, but here is a long list of books to help you think about a wide variety of subjects we desperately need to be talking about with our neighbors right now.

Finally admitted that these two trees I was sent in the spring are definitely NOT paw paw trees. These leaves are... NOT paw paw leaves 😆. The mystery now is .. what kind of trees did they actually send me??? They never flowered in the spring, are clearly grafted, and nearly 6ft tall. 🤔🌱

RIP Michael Madsen who always seemed to understand being cool wasnt about strutting or being the toughest most supposedly complex person ( looking at you Jon Berenthal) Its about the quiet confidence of absolutely not giving a fuck

Everyday this motherfucker wakes up and thinks " what's the stupidest smooth brain thing I can do today?"

Hoooooo my. The world is serving up some stuff. Love to you all. It’s quite a year so far.

This is what I mean when I say they believe in nothing. They are stupid and mean and they hate America and they believe in nothing. That is every Republican

If you're interested in listening to me talking about how I do what I do, you can hear me blather on the Blasters and Blades podcast. Watch here... www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlTJ...

Here's my periodic reminder post: If you don't like the things I say, unfollow me. If I'm too ubiquitous in your friend group, block me. I'm not interested in imposing my opinion on you and I don't need your likes or your counterpoint. I am free and I want you to be free too.

@watsoncomedian.bsky.social Lovely to meet you! The book sounds ace, congratulations.

Can anyone help Soad and her son Omar with their campaign? www.gofundme.com/f/providing-...

@sillysyntax.bsky.social Can I interest you apparently in some lesbian vampires?

My disabled friends. My siblings from other parents. I'm destroyed right now. No, I'm not okay. This is bleak. But damn, am I glad you're in this world with me.

this is the least aware this country will ever be about how bad we just got fucked over. let's make the past 72 hours the golden days they dream of in the months ahead.

Always weird to be sitting here trying to do your job/life at the end of America but here we are.

I want every English teacher I've had to watch this news *and simultaneously* listen to the literal thunderstorm that just rolled in. No, YOUR fallacy is pathetic!

I'm usually not a fan of spiders, but this weaver themed ancient tome book box is the exception. I hand painted this in several different shades of blue, with an iridescent sheen. And this is the only book box with gilded pages! thebrokencircle.etsy...

Didn't want to go for a walk but knew it would help my head. Rewarded with this ♥️

Nobody has said it better.

I Forgot the Title but the Cover is Blue (Den Titel hab ich leider vergessen … aber es ist blau). Vienna librarian Monika Reitprecht collects amusing dialogues with patrons. "I can't load my e-books." "What titles do you have?" "A master's degree."

bookbub is at it again, making sure I know that there's a deal on a book that Kit Rocha likes... but it does sort of make me feel like now is the time for a Catalina & Alessandro reread. amzn.to/4lzJ3tg

Maybe get yourself a little surprise for the weekend. And if you wanted us to pick a book from an Independent press (see what I did there) just let us know in the order comments portersquarebooks.com/product/blin...

I got to read this early and it was awesome!
