I have been MIA for a minute now but recently it’s because Blue Prince has me HOOKED. Anyone else? (Spoiler free please)

Which is silly to me too! Audiobooks (on whatever speed you prefer) still count as reading

The book community is wild. It’s one of the only places I’ve seen so much drama about what types of books people read or how many books they have read in a period of time. If I did the same thing in the board game community, we’d all just high five and ask when the next game night is.

Honestly, I was half-expecting another headline today about some ridiculous executive order, like ‘Trump changes President’s Day to All Hail Trump Day.’ The fact that it didn’t happen feels like a small victory.

You are either an ally to the entire queer community or you are an ally to none of us. You do not get to pick and choose which queer identities you support and which you don’t. Period.

If you remain silent in the face of injustice because it does not personally affect you, you enable oppression to grow. When the tide finally turns against you, there will be no one left to stand by your side. Justice for one is justice for all.

Fighting the good fight when you can while sprinkling in time for rest and recharge, staying up to date with the current events and still being expected to go to work feels like it should be some sort of morally/ethically illegal.

Dreaming about work should be classified as overtime and compensated as such

I don’t know who needs to know this but in case you do.. if you have an HSA there is an entire website dedicated to eligible items you can purchase and have shipped to you. 2025 may be playing but thanks to the hsastore my skin will be *slaying*🖤

It’s starting to smell like a Boston Tea Party in here

Congratulations on surviving the chaos of this week. May you take a moment to be selfish this weekend, may your drink of choice be your preferred temperature, and above all else may you find the strength to keep fighting for actual freedoms for another day 🖤

R.ise up to confront inequality.
E.ducate yourself about the issues.
S.peak out against oppression.
I.nspire others to take action.
S.upport marginalized groups.
T.ake a stand. 🖤

Hey don’t forget today to: drink water, eat something, protect human rights, fight fascism. Ya know, self care.

Airport rules are in full effect. Good job remembering to put something in your system 🖤

Feel better sweet girl! Sending healing vibes and head pets your way! 🖤

If the upcoming days feel impossible, start small:

🪥Brush your teeth.
💧Drink a glass of water.
🎶Listen to one song that brings you comfort.
📚Read one chapter of a book you’re excited about.
🖤Connect with one person you trust.

Maya! Thanks for showing us how to put on the best brave face! 🖤

Sassy and adorable! Happy splooting! 🖤

Scottie can lead our stretches and yoga poses any day! 🖤

Stella! Your bandana looks STELLAR! Sending lots of tummy rubs your way! 🖤

Luca, you are me most days. Sending virtual treats and lots toy squeaks your way 🖤

Pspspsps to you too sweet Lucy! 🖤

HELLO SWEET BABE! I love the lights!

Since tomorrow may be weighing on your mind like it is mine, here’s my tiny overlord reminding you to take a moment to relax your shoulders, unclench your jaw, and take a few deep breathes 🖤

I scrolled through hundreds of saved videos to add to my TBR list (which I guess I needed a push to do eventually) but forced timeline gave me the serious ick.

What a WILD start to this Sunday. First, for those of you who joined and decided to stay: HI! WELCOME! 2. I’m glad you’re here and look forward to connecting! And C. With the zombie rise of TikTok, it’s okay to question everything without spreading misinformation. Keep your options open. 🖤

Of course! My decorations just look different! 🖤

As a suffering member of lake effect snow, I feel you on this one!
