Every time I encounter spoilers from Dungeon Crawler Carl I hug and kiss my kitties and I thank the universe for being blessed with my kitty babies. (And every time Donut’s safety is at risk I cry. I’m reading the Webtoon comic and so far have cried like 3 times. Donut & Phoebe would be bffs.)

insane to me that @patagonia.com is suing incredibly impactful drag queen and climate activist Pattie Gonia for “harming their brand” is Patagonia not a brand for the LGBTQ+ community or for climate activists? because you’ve spent a lot of time pretending to be both.

No keeping secrets from your werewolf mate. She will know when you're stressed, when you're horny, when you've eaten a piece of cheese without telling her, and when you're angry that Ticketmaster is once again the only way to see your favorite band coming to town. The nose knows.

I was stuck behind a school bus when these kids in the backseat got excited and started waving then showing me their Porgs so in response I waved and showed them my Dark Chao plushie and they lost their little minds with glee. I’ve never felt so cool in my life until this car! 🕶️

So, uh, that’s a gross ass thing for Hachette to do. Two things can absolutely be true at once and it’s this - any use of AI in books should not be accepted. Not from authors. Not from publishing houses.

I love my Lilly & Mommy time but she chose right when I was going to write in my journal and alternatively now I’m holding my bladder. 😭💔
POV shot of Nikko looking down at her lap in cream sweatpants with her medium-hair black cat Lilly curled up on her lap. Lilly has a pretty new collar with a bow decorated in springtime flowers with a creme background. In front of them on the bed (with also creme sheets) is a blue, opened journal with a black pen with a black cat topper sitting on an open empty spread.  There’s a blue ribbon bookmark between the pages.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but listening to an audio book absolutely counts as “reading” a book. In fact, I’d argue that listening to an author read their own work aloud is an exceptionally magical and even holy experience. I love it so much. Especially as my eyesight gets worse.

A local Irvine high school's Turning Point USA club has organized a debate on “transgenderism and same sex marriage”. Not only are people’s lives and identities not up for debate, but this is also dangerous, thinly veiled bigotry. I have friends with queer kids at this school and I'm livid.

I try to focus this account so it's for my readers, but hey writers: NEVER sign a contract where the publisher keeps your rights indefinitely. For short stories, there should be a point when you can sell reprints. and NEVER sign your movie/TV/etc adaptation rights to a publisher. Those are yours.

One of Phoebe’s favorite shows is Ghost Adventures. She loves curling up next to me with this show and watching the tv. She wanted belly rubs from the team but they’re in the tv 😅
Living room apartment with modern coffee table with Halloween decorations in front of a fireplace with tall speakers  framing it. A plant hangs above the one speaker. This is nighttime and the blinds to the outside are closed. On the glowing TV is some of the Ghost Adventures crew. In the foreground, in front of the table & closest to the camera, Phoebe, a fluffy black cat lays on her back with her belly exposed as she looks towards the tv.
