RIP to my all time favorite TV dad, and blessed be Anthony Stewart Head.

My favorite stories are genre stories, which are full of orphans and kids who grow up to find out that dad is Darth Vader, or tragic waifs who know that Dad was a villain all along. The first time …

Just got some Akko Silent Penguin switches because my current keyboard is too loud for my office and holy crap, these things feel amazing. I might be in love.

Found my favorite skeleton in BG3 again. Today's a great day.
A screenshot from Baldur's Gate Three. It shows a dark room and our party (Lae'zel, a tiefling woman with green skin in heavy armor, Shadowheart, a dark-haired elven woman currently being blown about in a hurricane, and Astarion, a curly white-haired elf laying on the floor, and Karlach, a red large tiefling woman). Karlach is gleefully pointing at a skeleton currently sitting in the thinker pose.

Also, the book is crazy stuffed with plot (like my outline was insane, and I cut a lot of it out of the episode) so not surprising to forget parts of the book. It very much does not let you take a breather for the whole run.

Two very important things happening today. First up, and most importantly, it's Phineas' Gotcha Day!!! We've had this Very Good Boy for four years now. The "It's been ___ Days Since We Had to Call the Vet Since Phineas Ate Something He Shouldn't" sign is going strong. We made it to double digits!

I went with three women from my mom's knitting group. Two had never seen the movie. They got to hear my rant about the time we watched it in English class my sophomore year, and how much of a travesty it was that my teacher fast-forwarded through the opening credits.

I bought a pen with a floating cow in it as a souvenir from Spamalot, and it may be my favorite musical show souvenir yet.

You've got like 5 days to read ON THE EDGE if you wanna come hang out with my book club for the first episode of the Kissing Book podcast, y'all.
A promo shot of some text and a book cover. The text on torn pieces of paper reads KISSING BOOK Podcast and ON THE EDGE - Ilona Andrews. The book cover shows a woman in denim leaning against a truck with a shotgun, while a shirtless blond man looks on from a distant corner.

part of the selling point for biden was “you will not have to think about the president every hour of the day” and for all his many flaws that was true and this country said nah we want to go back to thinking about this one guy all the fucking time and I will never get over it

Working on the podcast is going swimmingly. (Shards of Honor is not the first episode)
A screenshot of a whatsapp conversation. 

me: I'm using Adobe Express and Photoshop to kind of mix and match.
Ves (sub-labeled Romance Noob): Witchcraft.
me: Nah, perspective warp tool
me: gonna use the WORST cover for Shards of Honor (lots of laughing emojis)
Ves: But we neeeeeed the 80s one for authenticity
me: BUT GRAPHIC DESIGN IS MY PASSION
Ves: CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
me: COLOR THEORY
Ves: COLOR THE SKY

Where can we find the actual podcast social media? We have an insta! www.instagram.com/kissingbookpod And I recently reactivated my own insta (dunnewriting) so come say hi there! It'll probably be just pictures of Phineas the Very Good Boy, but he's cute and it's worth your time.

What's your posting schedule? Well, we've got two ADHD hosts and one autistic host and so I'm a little afraid to write down an answer to this one. But we have pre-recorded several episodes and we're having a blast reading a bunch of books together. So.....TBD? I guess?

How are we picking the books? I want to say "carefully" but honestly, it's just vibes. We pick books we've read before, books we've heard good things about, books recommended all over the internet. But the one criteria is that they have to be kissing books.

Some preemptive answers: What is this? A bad idea, probably, but fuck it we ball! My friend Eden and I are dragging @obishenshenobi.bsky.social, a romance novel noob, into the world of romance books one read at a time. We'll be announcing the next book in advance so people can readalong.

You know what the world needs? More podcasts. Luckily, two friends and I have banded together ACROSS THE ENTIRE WORLD to solve that problem. Like the heroes we truly are. Tune in on May 7th to the inaugural episode of "This is a Kissing Book" wherever you get your podcasts.

We're only reading the first for the podcast because we'll be bouncing between genres. Right now I'm making my way through a sports romance, actually. But I'll probably read through the rest of the series on my own time.

About to read Shards of Honor for the podcast and oh my GOD the ebook cover is so bad.
