We’re in the bad place 😵‍💫
Creepy Meta ad with a potato-like mascot doing yoga next to a house plant, water bottle, and bowl of food. Text reads “Offload the mental load to Muse. Muse schedules your appointments and remembers the small stuff. Less to carry, more room to breathe”Potato mascot thing comes back with workout clothing, weights, and a water bottle. Text reads: “Meet Muse, your adaptive training coach. Muse builds your workouts, tracks your meals, and adjusts when life gets busy. You just show up and train”

I know it’s the first day of fall because: 1. Education program prep is in full swing, if not already underway 2. KITTY CUDDLES

This one little detail in @fondalee.bsky.social’s The Last Contract of Isako made me cackle. Books become so much more relatable when you see something and can say “yup, people would absolutely do that. I’ve lived it and that is absolutely what dystopia feels like” 😅
Excerpt from The Last Contract of Isako by Fonda Lee. Highlighted text: Panicked people making a run on portable heaters and o-masks, hoarding food, water, and inexplicably, toilet paper. “Inexplicably, toilet” paper is underlined for comedic effect because let’s face it, that was one of the weirder parts of the pandemic

I love living in a place where I get to experience toxic wildfire smoke, a heat index of 104F+, and the epicenter of parasitic explosive diarrhea all at once 🫠

For whatever reason, Echo has taken to licking my copy of Provenance by @annleckie.com I have no idea why. She’s never done this with other books, not even Translation State. But Provenance? Mlem mlem mlem

No new pictures, where are you at mentally?
Clip from LOTR: The Two Towers. Top line is Frodo asking “what are we holding onto, Sam?” 

Bottom line is Sam responding (not the real line, obviously) “Sheer fucking spite, Mr Frodo.”
