One day, I will actually figure out what I am doing with my life. It's not looking like today, though.

Firing squads. Drone strikes. Shooting small boats. Alligators in the water. Stacking people. Kidnapping people. Bombing people. Starving people. Separating people. Disappearing Terrorizing. Assassinating. An incomplete inventory.

One of the things I'll write about some day is how much Midnight Mass means to me because I watched right after my stepdad died.

I get to rewatch Midnight Mass to revisit it for the podcast. I am hyped for the excuse.

I spent a year watching school administrators do their jobs—and interviewing the students most impacted. I spoke to @thecut.com in a long-form Q&A about what I saw. Mainly, a system designed to protect perpetrators and punish victims in each and every case.

The Reason Why Colleges Still Fail to Address Sexual Violence

The “Cornell Seven” case highlights what’s wrong with Trump’s Title IX rules — and how the system was always designed to fail.

I haven't been around because I am on a social media sabbatical right now, so text me, email me, or even call me to find me.

I accidentally finished the last book in a series that is out and now have to wait 1 1/2 to 2 years for the next book. Whoops.

Today, I bought (more) Halloween tees and (more) wide leg pants. I am committed to a theme.

That's helpful. Thank you. It's making me batty.

My kids, upon learning that I am trying allergy medicine albeit a different one, were like, "If we hear someone climbing on the ceiling, we should just ignore it, yes?"

Kelly J. Baker (she/her) @kellyjbaker.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

The last go round, I didn't sleep for 48 hours and my heart was beating out of my chest. So, I quit taking that med pretty quickly.

Kelly J. Baker (she/her) @kellyjbaker.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

My hearing in my left ear is not great due to "congestion." So the PA put me on allergy meds and Flonase to clear it up. The last time the doctor put me on allergy meds I tried to climb the walls. Wish me luck.

I am wearing a "stay creepy" shirt with a skull and a jack o'lantern on it and spider earrings for the official start of Halloween season. And shorts and sandals.

I have been sick for the last few days, and I would like to report that I didn't appreciate it, but the cats loved sleeping next to me on the couch.

I volunteered for something I shouldn't have and now I am facing the consequences of my actions: a memoir

I had dreams last night that I was stuck in a room with the water rising and couldn't get out over and over again and woke up to the highest anxiety I've had in weeks. Sigh.

I just finished my MFA in June, and I am tired. So, I need the break.

Someone asked me today what I've been writing. I didn't start laughing uncontrollably or sobbing. I just managed to say I haven't been.

Both Dolly Parton and Tim Curry had such a genuine enthusiasm for performing that it was impossible not to love them for it, there were things more highly and lowly regarded in their bodies of work but both of them threw themselves into everything because it was pure joy for them and that rules

I will always remember how freaking scared I was of Tim Curry's Pennywise in the It miniseries. That performance has haunted me into adulthood.

Interviewing Dolly Parton remains one of the highlights of my entire music journalism career. She truly was a rainbow in the dark ♥️ www.vice.com/en/article/e...

I always liked that she chose to be her unapologetic self in the face of a classist, sexist culture that pathologizes and humiliates women who look like her

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️
