I really want Paul Rudd to recreate this super rad rapping scene from Teen Witch. But who should play the girl? 🤔

You know life isn’t going the best when you go to the beach and see a bunch of sea lions on the rock having a sea lion party and wish you were a sea lion because their lives seem so simple and fun.

There's such a lot of different Annes in me. I sometimes think that is why I'm such a troublesome person. If I was just the one Anne it would be ever so much more comfortable, but then it wouldn't be half so interesting. - Anne of Green Gables I forgot how lovely this book is.

I dream about Sylvia Plath a lot. I don’t know why. Yesterday I dreamt that she was living in an RV in the school parking lot across the street.

The Tale of The Trump Duck And The Vbro: I rented a Vbro in Carmel Valley to hang out with some friends. While there, we noticed the home was very MAGA coded. Military diplomas on the wall, JD Vance's Hillbilly novel *which had been underlined,* The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich.

Overheard two 20-something artists discussing life last night. Highlights: * "When I'm not interested in something, that's it, I'm not interested." * "My girlfriend wants to go to South America, which I'm not into. But she won't go to Asia, and I'm like, come on, that's billions of people." ->

The Ozempic trend among celebrities is producing some weird dreams for me: Women in puffed-sleeve blouses whose arms turn to charred tree branches walking along the street, and the withered people from Ursula‘s garden in The Little Mermaid giving a fashion show in front of a castle.

I tried to listen to Ariana Grande's new album, Petal, but then I imagined a cartoon mouse singing all the songs and now that's all I can hear.

There is a wildfire right by my house. It will probably be OK. I hate that we are just ignoring climate change and pretending it isn’t a problem.

For some reason I mix up the words "angle" and "angel," which can be a very awkward mistake, especially when pontificating to editors.

Well thank goodness Taylor Swift is never getting divorced or this would all be a bit much.

I'm a bicentennial baby. All my life, people have given me 1976 quarters and told me in 2026 the country would be 250 years old. I never dreamed it would look like this, with our rights and democracy under attack, the White House torn up, and a thief for a president.

I hate how dumbed down museums are now. I visited the local history museum and it was 70% screens, 25% posters, and about 5% artifacts.

Weird anxiety dreams last night asking pertinent questions like: * Why did that one girl I knew 20 years ago never seem to like me? * Do The Simpsons still have a cat? If so, what iteration of Snowball are they on after 40 years?? * What is wrong with Sharon Stone's eyes?

took my son to Foster's Freeze for some fun nostalgic soft serve ice cream. $14 for two cones. The last time I bought a cone there, they were maybe $4 each. It wasn't *that* long ago.

I love that readers and writers rally around independent bookstores the way we do. I wish we did the same for small presses.

Why is a character on House of Dragons quoting Elizabeth 1? Are we not supposed to notice they lifted that line from her 1588 Tilbury Speech? I was sincerely confused.

Another AI short story contest winner? Harper's Bazaar (not Harper's Magazine) picked an extremely suspicious looking story as the winner of its 2026 Short Story Competition. Over 30 em dashes alone. What is going on?! Even if this story is human written, it's so *bad.*

Sitting here listening to the unceasing drone of chainsaws taking out the park across the street from my house. The school, Mary Collins, is removing 29 trees so they can put in a 9,000-sf classroom. Thanks to the #PetalumaSchoolDistrict for being so climate forward.
