Oh, today's first day of fall. Time for spooky! (Season breakdown: Fall = Halloween season, spooky required. Winter = time for scary ghost stories in Victorian tradition, spooky required. Summer = summer slasher and camping horror time, spooky required. Spring = pagan ritual horror, spooky required)

Dear Webpages: Stop with the popovers asking for my email address before I've even read more than the article headlines. Why would I subscribe before I know if I even like your stuff? And also why would I subscribe to someone who uses annoying popovers? Everyone knows you'll just sell the addresses

What if I picked a random super-niche corner of academia, chose a couple of scholars from it, made a bunch of sockpuppet social media accounts, and created an online alternate universe where people were OBSESSED with these superstar scholars, with the goal of tricking internet strangers into caring?

I don't visit my parents *just* so I can follow their cat around, taking pictures of her to use for memes fatshaming her, but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't right up there as a visit high point.

Walked into a journal store and discovered they'd put whatever I wanted on the cover of a little pocket-sized notebook. I proceeded to get silly #warhammer40k

Sometimes I tell a joke, laugh at it, think I'm the funniest person in the world, notice that nobody else is laughing, and note that I'm not just the funniest, I'm also the smartest person.

How unethical is it to walk around random neighborhoods taking pictures of other people's pets and posting them online tabloid style with lots of added drama? Like is it cool to do that to other people's pets, or only your own? And what about wild squirrels--god forbid I violate a squirrel's agency!

Guys. Guys. I just heard that for two nights in a row, a bear has been spotted only a few streets away from me. You and I both know what I must do. Tell my family I loved them, just not as much as I loved squishing the ears of a wild bear.

On the right it says "...

Can we talk wrapping paper? The local stores wrapping papers this year are very bland and depressing. And Amazon (yes, it's evil, I know) is FLOODED with these 17in "mini" rolls this year. What is going on??? Where can I get decent--either pretty or fun--wrapping paper in the full size rolls?
