Sarah Beddow/Boyle @pyrrhicspondee.bsky.social · 19/08/2026So now that I'm finally watching Reacher, I have to ask: does anyone else think this guy is a LOT like Murderbot? Specifically, Alexander Skarsgard as Murderbot. But also not not the Murderbot of the books. 130
Sarah Beddow/Boyle @pyrrhicspondee.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Just finished a Huck Finn reread in anticipation of finally reading Percival Everett's "James." And I have to say, the book is NOT titled "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." It is titled "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn." This drives me UP THE WALL every time. 110
Sarah Beddow/Boyle @pyrrhicspondee.bsky.social · 10/03/2026The number of people in the comments who are calling Elizabeth Bishop a terrible writer. Oh save me from yelling at people about "The Fish" before the workday even begins. 020

Sarah Beddow/Boyle @pyrrhicspondee.bsky.social · 13/11/2025Legitimately a lot of books of poetry that read just like this. Looking at you, Ugly Duckling, Omnidawn, and truly most of the gurlesque poets. 110

Sarah Beddow/Boyle @pyrrhicspondee.bsky.social · 30/10/2025When we were unionizing our charter school network (we won!), one thing I read and used in our campaign was the idea that unions are little-d democratic. They bring people who have nothing in common together to negotiate for better working conditions. They strengthen community through diversity! 151
Sarah Beddow/Boyle @pyrrhicspondee.bsky.social · 15/10/2025Oh dear, Dispatches from Frontier Schools would smell like ballpoint pen ink, sharpened pencils, Axe body spray, and flop sweat. Maybe some coffee, too--ooh, or burnt popcorn in the teachers' lounge. 020
Sarah Beddow/Boyle @pyrrhicspondee.bsky.social · 14/10/2025Saw an amazing Strega Nona tattoo and it got me thinking what children's book I would want a tattoo of. And obviously it would be Madeline. Obviously the illustration where she lifts her shirt to show off her scars to her schoolmates. I am a poet, you see. 020
Sarah Beddow/Boyle @pyrrhicspondee.bsky.social · 03/10/2025I mean, honestly, even in the 90s very few of my friends actually read the whole book, even if it was assigned. I was the weirdo for insisting on reading books, cover to cover, as a matter of course. 020
