If you've ever cancelled plans and then spent the whole time you were supposed to be out feeling guilty instead of resting...

the guilt isn't the price of rest.

It's just an old habit.

You're allowed to actually rest.

legit one way to tell if a text is LLM-generated is if it contains no grammatic or semantic infelicities and has a coherent rhetorical structure (while also being inane gobbledygook).

You can be tired, but you'll never be as tired as an indoor cat who's slept for 18 hours, eaten 4 meals, looked out the window for 20 minutes, and decided it's time for another nap.

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are sitting side by side in a tree, their tails coiled together.
Blue: It's best to share your life with someone who keeps you out of trouble.
Green: Yep. But it's more fun to be with someone who will join you in it.
Blue: That's also true.

Cautiously, Blue and Green peer down from their branch, looking to the ground far below.
Blue: Do you think it's safe to get down yet?
Green: No, I think they're still angry.

There's a sound of unintelligble cursing coming from the ground below.

The one on the far left
The exterior of an Urgent Care building with large red lettering above a green awning.

Along the front windows are five stock photo advertisements for medical services:

Under the header "Physicals," the window unexpectedly features the famous "Hide the Pain Harold" meme man dressed as a doctor in a lab coat, sporting his iconic pained, strained smile while holding a clipboard.

The remaining windows show stock photos for "Immunizations" with a young girl, "Quick, Quality Care For the Entire Family" with a family, "X-Ray" showing medical staff, and "Urgent Care" featuring a female healthcare worker.

tweet by Author Patty Smiles (@bedtimeforbozo) reads: "obsessed with the discovery that lotus pods look like little panicked human faces .. not only adorable but they also perfectly capture the experience of being alive in 2026". Below the text is a grid of six close-up photographs showing dried and green lotus seed pods, each featuring seed cavities that visually resemble wide eyes and open, screaming or panicked mouths.

PSA related to this: living up to your stated values is a muscle you can strengthen. run through scenarios in your head and practice what you would do or say. talk to people you admire about how they do it. get a few stock phrases to push back, even something as mild as "what do you mean by that?"

sometimes the "if you're querying and keep getting rejections the book is bad" stuff crops up and i feel like i need to remind people that sometimes marginalized authors/stories get rejected bc they don't appeal to cishet white readers and that's really it. we're in a conservative backslide!

I must be coming up in the world because I've begun getting those book club emails I've seen written about. I'm certain they are scams, so ignore them. I would think that a book club that wanted to read my book--really did want to read it--would ask for books for the readers to read. 🤷‍♀️

One of the most discouraging assumptions I see writers make is that querying a book and then moving on means that book is dead forever. That walking away from it now means you’re giving up on it completely. No. Just…no. Seriously, tell your self-doubt that Vicky says to kick rocks.
